Probably has been gone over before.

What team or teams give you the most problems handicapping? And I don't mean you always lose on them, you just can't find an edge? Using smart logic, you'd stay away, but let's face it, we're all degenerates here.


Patriots - rarely lose the "trap game," or suffer the "let down." Not recently at least I guess. I bet them against Chicago this year, and any situation really I'd have taken the Bears, and it ended up being one of the easiest bets I've ever made.

Jaguars - this team always has my number. Can't win with 'em, can't pick against 'em.

Colts - becoming this way. Have been mightily inconsistent this year, as their lack of firepower hasn't necessarily been reflected in the lines...well it has, I just can't translate.

Yankees - Love laying big odds, or a -1.5 RL to have them lose outright, or win 4-3 at home vs. Baltimore.

Celtics - another team that baffles me. They steamroll the heat the 2nd game they play in Miami, then lose to NJ at home. Or something like that. They are doing better about not losing these games outright. I guess that's what happens when you have a team full of veterans.

Alabama Football - I always feel like I'm a week late picking this team, or picking against them.

NFC East. Flip a coin. No one knows who and when anyone will show up here.

As soon as I read this - I said Colts!

Also - Steelers, who knew Roethlisberger was hardcore......

When many QB's get hurt - they're out. Roethlisberger just says - "make me a special ankleboot from scratch so I can play." Gotta hand it to Ben. (Although it could be that he has been in so much trouble, he's like "I gotta play".)

New Jersey Devils, specially this year. I'm like 1-6 last seven on their games, that one win came last night.

Checked my nhl stats just out of curiosity:

worst
Vancouver 2 - 9 :eek:
Montreal 6 - 13
New Jersey 11 - 17
Edmonton 4 - 10

best
Detroit 17 - 11

rest of the teams are +-2
