30W-21L-1P +$22,200= 59% winners
Well it was an up and down week for me...overall ended up down -$3,100 overall on the week...had two strong plays w/ New England and NY Giants go down - and that was the difference. How it goes. I tell you I didn't recognize either team last night - looks like the Giants didn't even plan to show up. The last 2 losses were way off - but I always go w/ what I feel is the "right side".
Still a strong season going here - 59% winners, up over $22K...have to get back to my roots though as I've played a few more favorites than usual...dogs truely are the key to long run success and every now and then i need a game like last night to remind me of that...reflecting on it and reading alot of your posts - most of you were right - it was a perfect spot for the Browns...I really reviewed both teams closely and I tell you I was very down on Derek Anderson - he looked like a Pro Bowler last night - same w/ Braylon Edwards - where was that the first quarter of the season? Maybe this is a sign of the Browns turning the corner who knows...NFL is so unpredictable week to week...
Alright - best of luck this week everyone...at least I get to be around on Saturday for a big Saturday of college football - hated missing it this last week...had several leans to alot of dogs that covered...would have played some if I was around - instead I went w/ Oklahoma and Tulsa - locked in on Friday night - both were losers - both were favorites - once again - reinforces why I need to focus on dogs more like i used to...
One thing I challenged myself to do this season more than I ever have before was pick the spots where I really saw a blowout was going to happen...Giants fit my criteria this week - as did Tulsa...both went down...on the flipside the week before i nailed a few blowouts...i never try to be right every time - my goal is always to pick 55-58% winners over a season, a goal I have been successful at achieving over the years...that means I'll be wrong 42-45% of the time - i always tell people you have to accept losing if you are going to be a winner...you can't let things like how i lost the last 2 wagers (weren't even close) affect how you approach the next week - can only reflect on it, and look at adjustments you can make to improve...
Alright - enjoy your week everyone...
