NFL 2010 SEASON – WEEK 14
Last Week: 10-5-1 (.656) Best Bets 3-0 (1.000)
Season: 94-92-4 (.505) Best Bets 23-16 (.590)
I am finally over.500 picking games for the season. At one point, I was 13 games under .500. A few more weeks like this and I can get that penthouse condo in Las Vegas. At least, I am finally out of the outhouse in Boonville.

For those who were wondering why I make my picks on Thursdays, it is because of days like today. Starting today, there will be games on Thursdays for the rest of the season. I will be making my Thanksgiving week picks that Wednesday.
Last week’s picks brought me back to Earth after a run when I looked like I knew what I was doing. Hopefully these picks are out of this world. Some of this week’s picks are against common wisdom because it’s been that kind of year.

I’m getting better at this. This is the second week in a row I was at .500 and have been 4-1 with best bets. Before I confirm my trip to Las Vegas, I will try the rest of the season and improve.

An improved week and limiting the number of best bets to 2 last week made me look good. I will go back to 3 best bets because I feel confident. And although this has nothing to do with football, it was nice watching the Capitals on Versus last night using the Caps’ network feed (Comcast). I felt like I was back home.

This is why I am running for President and not handicapping football games in Las Vegas. It looks like it’s also going to be a long year for my Redskins. 😦 I won’t give up. There is plenty of room for improvement and I intend on taking up that room.

Don’t let the poor week scare you – I know what I am doing. I am a professional (marketer, not handicapper). Don’t try this at home!

Another Reason to Hate the Dallas Cowboys
I am a Washington Redskins fan. Hating the Cowboys is as natural as walking or picking scabs off of my mother’s face. Most of my hatred of the Cowboys has come from the many games the Redskins have played the Cowboys over the years. The Cowboys cheat. (If you don’t believe me, ask any New York Giants or Philadelphia Eagles fan.)
The United States has gone downhill since the Cowboys were given the moniker of “America’s Team.” This is a totally inaccurate assessment. The capitol of America is not in Dallas, it’s in Washington, DC. Rather than proclaim the Redskins as America’s team, I will say that America has 30 7/8 teams. (Dallas is a bad example of America and the Buffalo Bills play a home game in Toronto.)
The latest reason to hate the Dallas Cowboys has nothing to do with the Redskins. For that matter, it has nothing to do with any team in the NFC. The reason why we should hate the Cowboys now is because of their fans. Say what you want about fans of the Eagles, New York Yankees, and Justin Bieber, but even they wouldn’t use a taser on fans of another team.
This incident occurred on September 11, 2011 during a game between the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. The Cowboy fan (wearing a DeMarcus Ware jersey) tasered a Jets fan after the Jets fan heckled him for not standing for the National Anthem on September 11 at a place where one could see where the Twin Towers used to stand.)
The worst part of this is that for now on, when attending an NFL game in any stadium, fans will be subject to a TSA-style screening and having their privates felt to make sure said privates are not a taser. Thanks to “America’s Team” and their fans, going to a game will be like going to an airport (being groped by middle-aged ugly guys and dealing with excess baggage.)
