Week 2 Bettin’ for Fun
Traditionally, I’m an awful sports gambler. I go against all the conventional rules of betting on sports. For fun, and for once not for real money, I’m picking a handful of games each week against the spread. If I’m halfway decent, maybe I’ll throw some real money at it next year. This time I’m using some Monopoly money – let’s say $50 per game. For entertainment purposes, selfishly I might add, I’ve chosen a lot of TV games. Since this is my first week – I’m a clean 0-0. All lines were taken off of Covers.com on Friday, Sept. 10th.
Update: Won 3, Lost 4. Put too much faith in dogs this weekend. I totally expected more out of Miami…
