Now is not the time to be getting all bashful.

Thank God it’s Week 2, because last week was pretty fucking brutal. Even my real bets got the shit kicked out of them at the last possible minute (Rosario Dawson is a bitch). This week we must go on the offensive with reckless abandon. Remember, sensible gambling will get you nowhere, so don’t be such a god damn pussy. If we’re going to lose, we’re going to lose big, motherfucker!

Quote of the Week: “The more you know, the more you know you don’t know.”

On to the picks!

The “You bet your ass I’m betting against Oakland” Parlay

Kansas City -3.5 vs. Oakland

Laying 3.5 points on a Herm Edwards coached team minus their quarterback makes me want to punch myself in the nuts, but hey, it’s the Raiders! They’re fucked in every way imaginable. I’m talking DVDA fucked over here.

Pittsburgh-6.5 vs. Cleveland

From now on I’m committed to betting on Cleveland only when the play shitty teams. Besides, everybody keeps telling me how the Steelers are the new favorites in the AFC. For some reason this really pisses off Christmas Ape. Hey, did you hear that the Steelers are totally going to win the AFC? Fuck, they might go undefeated!

The “Might as well bet against the Raiders again” Parlay featuring Tarvaris Jackson

Kansas City -3.5 vs. Oakland

OK, this time I really did punch myself in the nuts, but still, it’s Oakland! I don’t see how this could go wrong. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!

Indianapolis -2.5 vs. Minnesota

I learned my lesson, so you won’t see me betting on any team quarterbacked by Tarvaris Jackson in the near future. Of course this just means that PJ will flatten Bob Sanders and co. on his way to a 300 yard day while Fetushead tries to remember how to run an effective offense.


The parlay in which I continue to bet against the league’s most woeful teams even though at least one of them will push, thereby ruining my life

Green Bay -3 vs. Detroit

As good as Detroit’s run defense looked last week, I’m going to have to go with the Pack this time. Sure, call me crazy, but I have a hunch on this one! Seriously though, betting on the Lions is like paying to fuck a chick with AIDS.

New York Giants -9 at St. Louis

I don’t care where they play, anytime I see a potential playoff team laying less than 10 against the Rams I’m going to jump on it like a fat man on a trampoline.

The “Ah fuck it” Teaser of the Week In Which I Should Have Probably Bought More Points (now guaranteed to lose!)

Tennessee +7 vs. Cincinnati

Oh Kerry Collins, you are by far my favorite drunk racist quarterback.

Washington +7 vs. New Orleans

Ahhhhhh, fuck it!
