Tracking my 2007 fantasy football picks

Much anticipated: Cowboys vs. Packers

Nov 29, 2007, 4:04pm | Posted by Steve

I'm really looking foward to tonight's Packers/Cowboys game, even though the greedy bastards at the NFL Network and Time-Warner Cable will force me to watch it on my small computer screen. This contest really determines which team is the head honcho in the NFC, and Dallas gets the nod from me. In a lot of ways this game feels like Brett Favre handing off the title of gunslinging quarterback winner to Tony Romo. I don't usually ...

Dolphins/Steelers on MNF

Nov 26, 2007, 6:42pm | Posted by Steve

A pretty good Pittsburgh team goes up against a really bad Miami squad tonight. I'm looking for a repeat of the Steelers' previous Monday Night Football appearance, where my bets were all won by halftime. ACTION: 11/26 Dolphins at Steelers (-9.5 1H) Dolphins at Steelers (team Over 27) TEASER: Dolphins at Steelers (-9.5) & Over 32.5 7:53pm After getting a look at the rain-soaked field in Pittsburgh, I'm going a bit of hedging by taking the ...

Lousy, stinking, rotten day

Nov 24, 2007, 12:19am | Posted by Steve

It was such a nice Thanksgiving Day; such a lousy day after. It's bad enough the Longhorns lost to the dogass Aggies in such an embarassing way -- Texas looked completely unprepared and unmotivated -- but I took an 0-5 hit on the day. For the life of me I can't figure out why college football continues to be so much more difficult for me in 2007 than the NFL. I believe it's long past ...

Post-Thanksgiving plays

Nov 23, 2007, 11:41am | Posted by Steve

After a nice day of betting yesterday, I only have action on two games today. I have a couple of leans on other games, but I'm not sure I'll play them at all, as my confidence level in those isn't nearly so high. Here's what I'm on: ACTION: 11/23 Boise St. (+3) at Hawaii Boise St. (+5) at Hawaii Boise St. (ML) at Hawaii Texas (-6) at Texas A&M My leans are these: ACTION: 11/23 Toledo (+7) at ...

Thanks given for a wonderful Thanksgiving

Nov 22, 2007, 11:06pm | Posted by Steve

Today was a very nice Thanksgiving Day. My girlfriend had her two sisters visit for the holiday and she fixed a wonderful meal for us all. My only duties for the day were to relax on the couch sipping wine and scotch and halfway pay attention to the football games. And the games worked out just right for me, with my bets going 3-0 on the day. Like Ice-T said, "Today was a good day." 11/22 Result...
