I’m moving a little slower than usual today thanks to a late night at the ol’ work place.  Our office in Bangalore got infected with a tricky virus which kept most away from home until late last night.  On top of that I experienced another weird weather day in Austin.  When I left for lunch [...]

Another lackluster weekend of football picks for me but money in the bank for you those of you who ran the fade route. NCAA Football Alabama (+10) vs. Florida (-10)  As expected Florida took care of business and covered.  Florida 31 – Alabama 20.  Mook’s pick: Florida (-10) Boston College (-1) vs. Virginia Tech (+1)  [...]

Here we go again.  Not as many games to pick from on the college side but I’m gonna try to get break even. NCAA Football Alabama (+10) vs. Florida (-10)  Winner should go to the national championship game and everyone is expecting the Gators to crush Bama.  I’m gonna go with the flow on this [...]

Ahhh…now that’s more like it.  If you faded my picks this weekend you probably have a nice little nest egg for the upcoming blogger gathering.  Let’s see just how bad I was… NCAA Football Miss. St. (+16) at Ole Miss (-16)  One of the only bright spots for me this weekend.  Ole Miss put the [...]

Since it’s a short week due to the holiday weekend I’m gonna post my picks today.  Last week I managed to break even finishing 1-2 in college and 2-1 in NFL picks.  I was going to start my college picks off with the UT/A&M game but the spread is an ugly 35 points.  I fully [...]

As expected I didn’t fare too well with my football picks over the weekend. If you faded my picks you probably have some lunch money for the week. Thanks to Chitwood for pointing out my mistake with the Indy game.  I ended up running like Waffles this weekend.  Let’s see how I did… NCAA Football [...]

The weekend is here and there are plenty of good games on tap for us sports fans.  When it comes to betting sports I’m no MiamiDon.  I have no clue and am horrible at picking winners.  My only winner was a NFL 3-team parlay on an early Sunday morning at the Plaza sports book in [...]

Unable to sleep, I stayed up way too late watching college basketball.  I saw most of the UAB/Arizona game and witnessed the most bizarre finish in quite some time.  I coached high school basketball for 5 years and never saw anything like this. How does that happen twice in less than a minute…at a D1 [...]

Contrary to popular belief, I have not been arrested and at least 6 of my 401 children are still with me. As a matter of fact one of my daughter’s turned 3 today and I kissed her goodbye as I left for work. Don’t believe everything you read…damn media. What a game last night! Since [...]
