Jay-

Really like the fact that STL is at home off a loss and TB is in their third straight away game. Possible letdown for Tampa after the big win against Miami last week. As much as everyone thinks Gruden will keep the intensity up, I think he may hold back a little in this one.

Think Martz will be really looking for a win here to get some confidence back for his team and the fans. Tampa's QBS have been great, but definitely like Bulger playing most of the game tonight.

Really surprised that most of the action tonight seems to be coming in on STL tonight (line up to 3 at most places).

Basically think that motivation and home field are going to be the big factors here.

Good luck whichever way you go tonight...

Thanks man.

If Bulger can get the protection there is no doubt that he has the tools to work with and plenty of options.

Without Faulk I wonder how much they'll bother with the run tonight - and if Tampa can key on the pass they can be a very capable force, if they bring it...

Good luck to you too.

Tonight 8/22

Atl +7 -130
Atl +240
Atl +3.5 -115 1st half
Phi -3
Ari pk

Loading up on Atlanta tonight. Team will be fired up with all the hype regarding Vick's injury. This young squad will want to prove that it's not a one-man operation, and that they still have Superbowl hopes. Tough to go against the Fish at home, but I see Atlanta at the top of their game tonight and winning outright.

Drunkguy,

You seem to be struggling a bit in the pre-season. I have been through this myself many times, may I suggest, have more drink.

For 8/23:

My top two

Cle -2

Couch against 2nd and 3rd string is key. At home and winless makes for some good motivation here.

Washington -2.5

Another winless home team. Spurrier gets their ass in gear for this local rivalry

Other plays:
NYG +130
CAR +170
NO +135

As usual, all for one unit

Fade 'em or follow 'em

Good luck tonight either way!

For Monday 8/25:

Denver -5

Indy depleted big time, no running game to speak of right now. Denver will look to come out big at home, especially Plummer, who should play through 3rd Q.

good luck guys

Drunkguy,

Never mind about you picks, did you learn anything in the pre-season from an alcohol point of view.

Burning Questions:

Did you pick up any new draughts?

Did you try out any new ones ?

Did any get extended playing time?

Will you be using a new Schnapper?

What will your starting line-up look like and will they be used in different formations?

How good are your reserves?


Lastly, were there any injuries in the pre-season that we should know about?

For Friday:

Car -2.5
Cinci +140
Sea +140

Winbet: I picked a few new players off waivers: Jack Daniels, Jim Beam, Jose Cuervo (star kicker).

Last Friday there was a severe blackout that postponed further play. Details are sketchy, but some reports claim the team scored, though it was an ugly play.

Tonight I hope to start off with a few from the shotgun formation...
