Another ugly week last week, leaving me up a little less than half a unit in football so far this year. I did cash the boxing ticket though...

Updated 2007 Football Record:
NFL sides: 29-26-3, +0.34 units
NFL totals: 11-12-1, -1.05 units
College: 12-12-1, +1.14 units

The favorites in the NFL have been running real well the last couple of weeks. The public has been real hot, and this has left a lot of opportunity to bet some juicy dogs this week.

That said, get ready to hold your nose this week. I'm betting more games than usual and hitting a few games hard. I usually don't like this much action on a single weekend, but I have to bet opportunities as they present themselves.

San Francisco 49ers +9-110 (2 units)
This big home dog is getting no love.

Atlanta Falcons +13.5 -110 (2 units)
The Falcons move on this week without Vick who is serving 23 months. Their season is done, but they'll still try to spoil this division rival. I'll take 2 TDs against the defensively oriented Bucs.

Other dogs I'm on this week (all to win 1 unit):
Miami Dolphins +4½ -115
St Louis Rams +10 -110
Carolina Panthers +8 -110
Kansas City Chiefs +4 -110
Oakland Raiders +11 -110
Washington Redskins +5 -105

All that action and I haven't even looked at the totals yet... I think I might be passing on those this week.

Being that it's the holidays and my schedule this week is ridiculous, I'm not sure if I'll post again before Sunday. That said, this Sunday is the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, and those crazy Ron Paul supporters are putting together another "money bomb" for him on Sunday. Ron Paul is the most pro online gambling presidental candidate in the 2008 race, and that's why I'm writing about him. You can check out this fund raiser at Tea Party 07.

Good Luck this week sports betting people.

1-1 yesterday...

Added Plays:
Green Bay Packers -5 -110
Farve @ home is too much for the Vikings poor secondary.

Tennessee Titans -4½ -110
The Jags are on their third straight road game, and the Titans defense is stacked.

Already on:
Arizona Cardinals -1 -110
Oakland Raiders +4 -110
St Louis Rams/New Orleans Saints OVER 46 -110
St Louis Rams +11½ -110

hold you nose for these 2...

St Louis Rams +11½ -110
Miami Dolphins +3 +100

I have to thank a friend for turning me on to this. Winless teams of 0-4 or worse coming off a bye are 17-3 ATS since 1990.

Obviously the public is against both these teams. The Ram's line looks high. I think it should be about +9. The Miami line looks about right. I can't move on it one way of the other, but the public is on them 80%. I'll roll the dice on these two dogs...

Already on:
Arizona Cardinals -1 -110
Oakland Raiders +4 -110
St Louis Rams/New Orleans Saints OVER 46 -110

Good Luck this week!

Oakland Raiders +4 -110
Live homedog. The public is all over the Bears, but with all the injuries to the Bear's defense, Oakland should be favored in this game.

St Louis Rams/New Orleans Saints OVER 46 -110
The Saint's offense has been on fire recently and with the Rams getting Steven Jackson back this week, they should be able to score.

Be back with more before game time.

Adding three live homedogs to card. And this is it. FINAL.
Carolina Panthers +7 -110
San Francisco 49ers +2½ -110
St Louis Rams +3 -115

The only home dog I'm not betting this week is Cincy. This game looks ugly, and I'm showing value on the Steelers. Not enough for a bet, but enough to keep me off the Bengals.

Previous Bets:
Miami Dolphins +10 -110
New York Giants/Miami Dolphins UNDER 48 -110
New Orleans Saints/San Francisco 49ers UNDER 40 -110
Green Bay Packers +3 +100

Updated 2007 Football Record:
NFL sides: 13-9-1, +4.05 units
NFL totals: 7-5-1, +2.65 units
College: 9-6, +3.35 units

Good Luck.
