There are some real interesting home dogs this week. They were for shit last week, and I’m purposely avoiding the New England/Indy game at all costs.
Philadelphia Eagles +3 +110
Okay I only took 3 on this game, but I don’t even think I will need it. The Cowboys are statistically the better team here, but they have had a much weaker schedule skewing the stats. The public is in love with the Boys (91%), and even though I don’t believe in “trap games”, this one fits the profile perfectly.
Tennessee Titans -3½ -115
Carolina’ weak defense should let Vince Young rebound nicely this week. Mean while, the Titans D should have no problem handling an offense lead by David Carr.
Already on:
Arizona Cardinals/Tampa Bay Buccaneers OVER 37½ -110
I’ll be posting more later.
Good Luck

(6) DAL Stars vs (5) SJO Sharks
Pick: Take (6) DAL Stars
Analysis: Off blowout Conference Game of the Year winners the last two weeks on Troy State and Wisconsin, Dave has his MWC Game of the Year this week, and once again, there’s no need to wait till game day. It’s yours right now for just $50 at Dave’s Pure Gold Club!… “The San Jose Sharks are in a bit of a funk right now. They were destroyed in a remarkably lopsided loss at Detroit Friday and followed that up with another defeat at Columbus Saturday. The Sharks don’t seem to have any flow offensively and they’re taking some really dumb penalties. Dallas deserves to be the favorite tonight and I’ll back the Stars to skate away with the win.”

Real early week 9 bet:
Arizona Cardinals/Tampa Bay Buccaneers OVER 37½ -110
This line is low and has already jumped up a few points and Iwould be surprised to see it climb through the rest of the week.
Good Luck

Terrible day yesterday for the homedogs. With the exception of Miami (which doesn’t really count), they went 0-4. The bad news for me is that I had 3 of them…
Overall, I went 3-4 yesterday. Could have been worse.
Updated 2007 Football Record:
NFL sides: 15-12-1, +2.70 units
NFL totals: 8-6-1, +2.55 units
College: 9-6, +3.35 units
And the Monday Night Football bet is:
Green Bay Packers +3 +100
I bet this game on Wednesday, and I still like the play. It looks like Champ Bailey will play. He might slow down Driver, but that shouldn’t stop the Packers tonight. Like I said earlier, I think the wrong team is favored here.
Good Luck.

(2) NY Rangers vs (1) TAM Lightning
Pick: Take (1) TAM Lightning
Analysis: The Rangers scoring drought continued on Saturday as the club could manage just one goal at home in a loss to the Maple Leafs, 4-1. That makes just three goals in the last four games that the Rangers have been able to garner. So far on the season their scoring average is just 1.60 goals per game. It doesn’t take much of a stretch to realize this poor offense has resulted in a 2-8 record on the season. IF there is one thing Tampa Bay has done well this year, it’s score goals. The Lightning have scored at least three goals in each of their last four games and average 3.56 goals per game on the season. What we like in this game is that Tampa is a nice +140 dog and against a team that has all kinds of trouble scoring that translates into good value. Take the Lightning here on Monday night.

Adding a final, final bet this week. See the last post for all other week 8 bets.
San Diego Chargers -9 -110
“Just getting a chance to say ‘You know what, I’m going home’ To me that’s special,” running back LaDainian Tomlinson said in the locker room after the team’s final workout in Arizona. “I think these guys feel the same way.”
“Just thinking about it I get goosebumps,” Tomlinson said. “I think it’s going to be very emotional, and I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a lot of tears in that stadium.”
“From a fire and home and town perspective, it’s been a rough week for so many people in San Diego who had it a lot tougher than we did,” Philip Rivers said. “From a football perspective, it’s been challenging, but at the same time it’s been good. … With the right guys, you can make any place work, any situation be a good one.”
“Sometimes when you cheer, you’re able to let some steam off, just to yell,” Tomlinson said. “So hopefully we give them a lot to cheer about on Sunday.”
Do I really need to add anything to this? I don’t think so…
Good Luck.

Well, here we go again. The NBA preseason ends tonight and the regular season kicks off on Tuesday night. I gotta tell you, I’m excited. We had success with some over/under picks during the second half of last season and hopefully we will pick up where we left off this season.
Now, for those who do not know about the NBA Over/Under system, let me tell you a little bit about it. It all started
