Now that is the way to rebound…After a Week so bad we dare not say it’s name…we blast back with a 22-2 weekend that featured 6 players going 3-0…only Burgess and Gasper go 2-1 with plays on Pittsburgh and Jacksonville…91.7% Win rate is our best ever in the history of the contest and adds $1,760 back to our virtual bankroll which now sits at $5,500…
“ALWAYS PROTECT YOUR UNIT”Week 14?…Rule #1…We do not talk about Week 14…Week 14 was so bad that my Excel file actually corrupted (Not Kidding…see empty season totals…) and I have to rebuild it…For this Week…Green Bay is the most popular (Thanks Wynn for the ½ pt Field Goal hook) with 5 plays…Denver gets 4…Seattle and New Orleans each get 3…Good Luck everybody…
“ALWAYS PROTECT YOUR UNIT”Ohhh…The Carnage!…2 Plays on New England, 2 on San Fran, A Redskins, and an Over…That’s all the good news there is…6-18 on the weekend is now our worst ever in the history of the contest beating out the dismal 8-16 effort from Week 13 of 2011…We gave back a full Quarter of our bankroll…$1,440…leaving us at $3,940 on the season…Riley’s homer pick keeps him as the only player in the black…Burgess’s streak of winning weekends ends on 13…he falls into a tie for the lead with Miller with only 3 Weekends left to play…
“ALWAYS PROTECT YOUR UNIT”We may be in the Playoffs for TBFL action….but the 5-Star Contest still has 4 Weeks to go to crown our 2012 Handicapping Champion…The Falcons are the hot play this week with 5 units being wagered…The Colts are the next favorite with 3 plays…but we already start 1-1 with Miller and Riley going head-2-head on the Redskins/Ravens match-up…Hunter is on the hottest streak over the last 3 Weeks at 9-0 and now ventures into his 1st week with no NCAA action…Burgess continues to lead the season with no losing weekends on the year…Good Luck everybody…
“ALWAYS PROTECT YOUR UNIT”It’s the worst week we have had all year…and we finish right on .500 out only the $240 vig…leaving the virtual bankroll at $5,380…Hunter is streaking late as he goes 3-0 for the 3rd week in a row…Miller bounces back from last week with his own 3-0 weekend and moves back into 2nd place…Burgess continues his remarkable run of no losing weekends…After 13 Weeks he is the only player still on single digit losses (Yes, ties count as ½ losses so Miller has 10)…
“ALWAYS PROTECT YOUR UNIT”We are all over the board for Week 13…Texans a favorite is the most popular play with 3…including the first Non-NCAA pick by Hunter on the year…Giants and Saints both technically get 3 plays each if you count the OVERs…Gasper and Shannon go head-to-head with Miller in the CAR/KC battle…Good Luck everybody…
“ALWAYS PROTECT YOUR UNIT”Not our best weekend…but 13-9-2 is still in the Black for the 4th week in a row…adding +$160 to the Virtual Piggybank which now sits at $5,620…Hunter’s NCAA picks are the only ones that go a perfect 3-0 for the second week in a row…Good enough to bring him back into the Black on the season with a 58.33% win rate…Shannon falls a Push behind perfection with a Lossless 2-0-1 and pulls a ½ game ahead of Miller for 2nd place behind Burgess…who continues his streak of 12 consecutive winning weeks…Shawn suffers a ½ and a 1½ pt loss on his OVER plays to go 0-3 and falls as the sole player in the Red Zone…
“ALWAYS PROTECT YOUR UNIT”Happy Thanksgiving Everybody! Falcons as a PickEm, Packers as a Road Dog, and Patriots by a Touchdown are the most popular choices with three wagers each…Only Shannon, Kevin, and Burgess take any actual Turkey Day action…all going against the home teams…Hunter lays it on the table with The Ohio State University challenge…but Riley did not accept this year and sticks with NFL action…Good Luck everybody…
“ALWAYS PROTECT YOUR UNIT”All or nothing pays off again…barely…Shawn got his sole win on a 1pt margin from the Saints/Raiders Over…and the 5 people who took the Packers to cover won by a ½pt margin when Crosby kicked a Field Goal with :19 seconds left to play…But a ½pt win is worth the same as a runaway cover in our books…16-5-3 is good for +$860 to the Virtual Bankroll which now sits at $5,460…Burgess keeps his streak alive with no losing weeks on the year…and he is 9-0 over the last 3 weeks…Miller took a push from the Ravens this week to fall back ½ a game and is 8-0-1 over that span…Riley runs 3-0 again and sits 8-1-0 over the last 3 weeks…Hunter runs 3-0 on his NCAA picks and is just $30 into the red…Will they both be facing off with the Michigan/THE OSU outcome?…

Hunter sticks with his NCAA guns…Everyone else has action on the Green Bay outcome…5 straight Packers picks and 3 more on The Over…4 plays on the Saints…3 on the Buccaneers…then a scatter shot of other plays…Burgess remains the only player with no losing weeks…He and Miller have the hottest streaks over the last 3 Weeks both running 8-1-0…Shannon, Riley, and Kevin sit just behind at 7-2-0…Good Luck everyone…
