Tracking my 2007 fantasy football picks

Thank you, Cincinnati, for pulling my Saturday out of the junk heap. Because you whupped San Diego State the way you did, my day went from a disaster to merely a bad one. And even after going 4-9-1 on the day (make that 4-11-1 counting Friday's game) I'm still in the black on the season. I have to count myself lucky for that.

I know I wasn't the only bettor having a hard time today. There were upsets all over the place, and even some of the winners were cutting it close. I'm glad I got a day like this out of the way with the damage contained to a reasonable level.

The Texas Longhorns are awful this season. I just felt like that needed to be said, but I don't really feel any better for having said it.

    Yesterday was the kind of day that makes me glad I don't gamble. Vicariously though I feel your pain. Ugly, ugly day. Good thing I sold the OU tickets this past week before both Texas and OU drove their market value WAY down.
