    Monday's pick's

    I'm in the Black again, now I can smile, even one of my big baseball dog's hit yesterday.

    Here goes, hope I continue my winning run.

    Baseball:

    Chi. W/S -120 vs Phil................3*

    Atl. over 9 1/2 runs..................3*

    Hous. -125 @ Cini....................3*

    Atl. -160 vs SF........................5*

    Chi. Cubs over 9......................5*

    Parlay: Det and the 5 games above for 20.

    Football:

    No pick, but if I had to play I'd go with Dallas -2, home team and something doesn't seem right about this line.

    Monday Night Football

    As I posted earlier I don't have a pick for tonights game, which by the way started at 2 1/2 today and is now up to 4 points, the total is 37.

    Something about this game doesn't seem right to me, with the lines at 4 and 37 I would play a two team 7 point teaser with Tenn. +11 and under 44 for a small play if you just have to have action on the game.

    On a good note I am all ready a winner for today reguardless of what happens tonight winning both my early games and one total for 550. I only have Astros over Reds and Cubs/Expos over 9 runs, and one six team parlay with the Tigers and the other five teams I picked.

    Almost a sweep!

    Well the Cub's over 9 lost (5-2 final), but a horrible call against the Expos cost them at least two runs early. They even show the blown call on ESPN, that was how bad it was.

    That game cost a sweep and 6 team parlay tonight. Good news is I still had another winning day, (+430.)

    As far as my opinion on the Monday night football, I would have been on the right side both ways, (Dallas - 2 1/2 on early line and the 7 pt. teaser with Tenn. +11 and under 44 for the late line.)

    In all a good day, but I can't stop thinking about that shity call. That was a 1,000 swing, (-270 instead of winning over 700.)

    Total to date: + 1,148

    Rick, so all of us can have a chance at kicking your butt at football prognostication, why don't you pick 6 games each weekend and give us all a chance to out pick you.

    Better than that!

    CBS sports has a site that will manage a office pool for us. I am setting up the pool now and we can either do it for fun or money. All money is handled by CBS sportsline (sent in to as well as all payouts.)

    Let me know who all would like to do this and if you want to pick them for fun or funds. And if money is involved how much to enter and do we have weekly winners as well as end on the year winners?

    As far as yesterday I won again and hit another BIG DOG play on Clev. +175 over the NYY (22-0, were talking baseball...LOL.)

    Todays pick are:

    Tex. @ Minn. over 10 1/2 runs...........3*

    LA -135 @ Ariz................................5*

    Anh. @ Bos. over 10 runs..................5*

    Bottom line - lost!

    Yesterday I went -420, to date: +798

    Watching that TCU game last night on ESPN II made me sick. Three times they blew 14 point leads and with just seconds left in the game Northwesten made a TD to tie it up 45 - 45. With a 5 1/2 point spread TCU was still covering. TCU won in DBL OT 48 - 45 (a 1,050 swing...ouch!) Should have been + 1,470...damm, I felt like I was sitting on 20 and watching the dealer draw a 6 card 21...LOL.

    Oh well bottom line is it was a loss and it over shadowed my big dog pick in baseball (Colo. over SF.)

    Today I like:

    NFL:

    NO -3 vs Mia...........................5*

    Baseball:

    KC +320 @ Minn........................1* (BIG DOG) over 3-1 return

    Tex +270 @ Bos........................2* (another Big dog)

    Tex @ Bos. over 9 1/2 runs.........3*

    T. Bay even vs Det....................3*

    Hous. -150 vs Pitt.....................5*

    Chi. W/S -115 vs Sea.................5*
