Results-Divisional Playoff Weekend


Ok. let's go over the weekend games. 

Unprediction of the WEEK: My record : 1-0. The Giants did cover the spread, in fact they beat Dallas. Eli Manning didn't go to Mexico last weekend with Jessica Simpson, like Dallas QB Tony "Yet to Win a Playoff Game" Romo.  Though, a parental authority figure of mine clearly pointed out that the Giants won the game by playing better, Dallas didn't lose it. 

Congratulations to the Giants and Eli Manning. Lucky you. You get to play football next week (in 4 degree weather), while the Nation roots for you to lose. Sports fans across the country are hoping that Packers QB, "The Great",  Bret Favre (pictured above) can get back to the Super Bowl at least once more before he retires. 

Other Unpredictions: My record: 0-2. Seattle did get creamed and therefore didn't cover and favorite Indianapolis didn't even win, getting upset by the "Super" Chargers of San Diego.

Recommendations: My results: 3-0. Green Bay won in a landslide as predicted. Jacksonville did cover and NY Giants won straight up. Of course, I didn't make any bets last week.

My thinking is that Green Bay is going to blow the Giants out. So, whatever the spread, Green Bay to cover. And it's only (-7)   

UNPREDICTION of the WEEK: Green Bay to beat the Giants by more than 7.

The smart money says that New England will blow out San Diego. They beat them handily in week 2 and San Diego is banged up. The spread is (-14). 

My Unprediction : San Diego to cover the spread. They will be pumped up. A score like the Jacksonville game, where the Pats win by two scores, is likely.

I'm not betting this week either.  So with my track record, this is a good week to follow my Unpredictions. 

A public service reminder: only wager what you can afford to lose or at the very least, don't wager loved ones or priceless family heirlooms.
