Thinking of thiese bets for this week.  Ihaven't committed yet, since you get better odds between midnight and 7:00 AM Sunday on BetOnSports.com.

Thoughts?

Detroit +3 1/2
StL -2 1/2
Oakland -2 1/2
Dallas +4 1/2
Indy -16 1/2
NY Jets +7 1/2

I'm mostly concerned with the Oakland game (no Moss) and the Indy game (undefeated against winless scares me -- both are due to jump the trend).

I don't think you have to worry. The Colts' D has looked good all year (not great), and did you even watch the Texans/Seahawks game last weekend? Pathetic to say the least. No way the Texans come close.

Yeah, that Indy/Houston is a lock if there ever was one.

Yeah, I always wait to place my NFL bets until after midnight unless I see a really great early line.

These lines have changed:

STL -3
DET +3
OAK +3

I'm not sure on who I'm going with yet. But I am leaning towards taking the Saints because Bulger is out.

I do like that DET line, especially if Garthia starts.

I'm not touching Indy no matter how zesty Houston is. I hate double-digit lines. Especially ones that are over 15.

I am leaning towards the Jets too.

I also like the Packers (-2) and the Bengals (-1).

I should have mentioned -- I'm buying a half point on each of those.  I've been burned on 4 ties in the last two weeks, and I'm tired of it!

I don't like any of those bets you made. I think they are all very risky although this is a very tough week for bets.

I think the Seahawks -4, Steelers +1, and Giants -2.5 are the best bets this week. Though I don't love either of those either. I don't feel great about any games this week, but those are the games I got for this week.
THIS SEASON IS OVER AND ANDY'S WORLD IS GRIDL

Offseason needs: 2 DEs, 1 DT, 1 OL, 2 LBs, 1 RB, 2 WRs, 1 TE, 1 KR.

QB Eagles

Skins have 35 points and the first half isn't even over yet. I think some college teams could beat the 49ers.

MDS

in the battle of the used to be okay but are now really bad but somehow can contend of the division title cause their division is awful teams, the favres are beating the sex cruises 17-3
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Damn....52-17 Skins...get out the ugly stick.

Giant and Broncs are having their own little flag orgy.  Stupid Giants, trying to be like the Eagles so bad it's pathetic.

The Broncos and Giants should be a good game to watch, as long as the Giants lose. >:D

Stupid Seahawks making the damg Crygirls look like an actual contender...and screwing my fantasy team while they're at it!   :boom
