The "BIG" Pick

O.K. folks this is the week of the big pick according to Colin Cowherd of ESPN Radio. As you may know, before the season started he picked 6 games that he said would be winners. Mind you he did this before the season even started. So far he has a 2-1 record. Last year he did the same thing and went 5-1 on his picks. So it now stands to reason that he should be perfect the rest of the year. With that being said it is also appropriate to note that this weekend is his big play of the year! "Play" in gamblers terms being the game to bet on. Not only bet on it but make it a big play! That means bet more than you would usually bet on a game if you are compelled to do things like that. LSU is at present a 7 1/2 point favorite in the game againt the Crimson Tide of Alabama. But if Colin is right on this I would suggest betting the money line, taking Alabama, which will probably be around +200. That means that is you bet $100 an Alabama you can win $200. Of course, and for those who don't know, betting the money line means that no point spreads are involved! The Tide would have to win outright, straight up...... SO good luck to all those who ventured into doing things like wagering on football or just picking games in the office pool. Should be fun to watch.

Happy Halloween

I was out trick or treating with the kiddies tonight and happened upon this wandering creature. He wished us a happy Halloween and was on his way into the night. I sure Hope he does more treating than tricking. Happy Halloween!

Dogs Best Friend

You thought it might be another one of those post where the dog has an owner who has placed a bowl of water or food down for him and he is gratefully waging his tail in appreciation! Not at all. This dog is saying thank you to God for giving him a home with Timmy and not Micheal Vick!!!!

When The Moon Comes Out

%1

I never knew this before I met up with my honey, but when the moon comes out I turn into someone else. A serenading crooner who can woo the pants off of her. But too bad for all the other women in the world, I'm off the market.

The Only Theory

This may be the easiest theory to understand that has ever come my way. Here a toast to all those with the current mental capacity to understand it. Cheers

Colins Picks!!!!!

In august Colin Cowherd of ESPN gave us 6 games to watch for this year. So far only one has been played and he was right. Purdue crushed the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame which isn't that great a feat this year to date, but his prediction was correct. So this weekend we have 2 more of the original 6 being played so lets follow along. The picks of the day are Texas A&M to cover no matter the spread, and Kentucky to beat Florida outright. As a reminder Colins 6 picks went 5-1 last year. And remember that this is not an endorsement for gambling, only something fun to follow. But do remember if you do like to wager on games, do it responsibly.

At The Beach

Sports has taken a back seat to the beach and vacation with My Honey and my family. Although in the sports world there are major, major upheavals at every turn, thrills beyond belief in all the fall sports, and the Yankees losing in another first round series, there are more important things in life.

Taking time to smell the ocean, feel the sea breezes, and getting away from the routine are a necessary part of life today. Now, although, this sounds very dramatic it's just what has happened to slip out of my mouth this morning as I watch the charter boats sail out into the Gulf away from the hustle and bustle of life.
