Checking In Week 5

Indy – 18 over Tennessee – No siree.  This one was actually close.  Weird tho, I would’ve been with Slim: 0-1     

NYG – 5 over Washington – Nice call.  Ugly game for the indians.  They clearly didn’t give the ball to Portis enough: 1-1

Carolina -7 over Cleveland – Always gotta pick your team.  A real gambler knows this is not true, but as you can tell from Slim’s record, he is not such a person: 2-1

Minnesota -6 over Detroit – Getting hot here.  I know Minny has been pretty good this year, but they bore me: 3-1

Nawlins -4 over Tampa – Not quite.  Closer game than the spread.  And Bush finally does something to warrant the hype: 3-2

St. Louis -3 over Green Bay – Push, and only the second all year.  I would blame Martz, and I have no idea why: 3-2-1

Miami +9 over New England – Almost, but not quite.  Why do you pick against Belicheck?: 3-3-1

Buffalo +10 over Chicago – You must be smoking crack.  What do I say?  NEVER PICK AGAINST MY BEARS: 3-4-1

NY Jets +6 over Jaxsonville – Wow, a shocker.  Impressive showing from Jax, but not from SLIM: 3-5-1

Arizona +3 over Kansas City – Another PUSH in a 23-20 game.  Coincidences abound: 3-5-2

San Fran -3 over Oakland – NIce call, but everyone should be going against Oakland this year: 4-5-2

Philly -2 over Dallas – Another premium pick.  I have no idea what that means, but SLIM was correct: 5-5-2

San Diego -3 over Pittsburgh – Highlight of the week, Football Jesus’ scramble late in the game: 6-5-2

Baltimore +4 over Denver – Not so fast, Denver’s D looked like the better one last night: 6-6-2

Locks of the Week: San Diego and St. Louis – 1-0-1   A decent week on the locks, but these should right each week

Overall Record: 34-39-3 Still losing overall, so he’s got to be in the hole.

I think he is just barely treading water.  After the poor showing in Week 4, I was expecting a dramatic improvement this week.  Perhaps his travel schedule cut into his research.  This coming week should’nt leave him any excuses.  Good luck my friend.

In a fantasy update, I am the king of the hill for now.  Well see what happens in the next couple weeks when I have some important players taking their BYE weeks.

Also, I am disappointed in the lack of a challenger to Slim’s crown of Section 30 Gambler.  One might expect the good doctor to challenge him, but he seems to be to busy making up his sexual escapades in enough detail to convince the rest of us that he actually has a sex life. 

Till next week……………………
