Week 2

NFL week 2 mash-up of picks against the spread. Other People's Picks // Or is that a mash of other people's pick-ups?

A's win the series

His picks - did not pick the SD/Tenn game. Not counting the Mon nite game (he picked Jax) - 10 right, 4 wrong. This is very good.

Giants, SF, Pitts - This guy picks all the games, but not against the spread. This looks useless, may have some value if he is consistently wrong.

2 right, 1 TBD - very good.

Not Just a Game: Week 2, Week 1

No picks posted on Sat Night. Sunday morning - we have picks. They are not so easy to find - but once I find the page, I like what I see. They claim to get 20,000 hits per month, before the football season started. They went 11-4 in the first week. If they go 11-4 this week, the hit meter is going to register some big gains. So with no further ado, here are the 2nd week picks:

wrong - Tampa Bay +6
wrong - Philadelphia -3
wrong - Carolina +1.5
wrong - Miami -6.5
wrong - Houston +14
wrong - Green Bay +2.5
bongo - Baltimore -13
wrong - Detroit +7
bongo - Cincinnati -10
wrong - St. Louis -3
wrong - Arizona +7
bingo - Kansas City +11
wrong - Tennessee +12
bingo - New England -6.5
bingo - Dallas -6
wrong - Pittsburgh -2

And 2 underdogs to win - Jets and Skins. - both of these wrong - they did not even cover.

Comment - about 50% - like flip a coin. I don't like the way his picks are presented - too much yada-yada-yada, and too hard to figure out what the pick is.

Christianity

Sports Guru

bingo Vikings
bingo Colts
bingo Saints
bingo Balt
bingo SD
bingo - JAX

gotta like the sports guru. Colts, Balt and SD won easy - he looks like a genius on these 3. Saints and Vikes were close - but give credit where credit is due. I very much like that he does not pick all the games. My new favorite picker.

bingo - Buffalo
wrong - Oakland
wrong - Ariz
wrong - StL
wrong - Jets
wrong - Skins.

This guy was 0 for 4 last week.

This week - 1 right, 5 wrong. As they say - it's just as hard to get them all wrong - it just does not pay as well. This could be a valuable resource, just remember to reverse the polarity.
