My duty last season was to monitor the PP usage.  I considered myself the

"Power Play Specialist".

If called on I will serve again but I am perfectly okay if someone else volunteers. 

 

 

Thanks  NCL

This week we will change it a bit NSX. It's going to take a week or two to get the group up to speed at least regarding deadlines. Let's say Picks should be up by 8 pm Saturday for week 1. Thanks though NSX for being on top of it. This week and next we will exercise some flexibility and leniency. After that we will tighten it up.

And jumping right in there first was our other rookie this year. Heck this newbie is even giving a Pick a Power Play designation. The man did his homework. Don't overlook the serious nature of CL.

He must already realize he has to get his Power Play picks in early, I think it's within the first two games, or he won't have the opportunity to use every Power Play available.

First game of Week 1 is on Thursday and there’s a Friday game, too. Saturday deadline seems a bit late. 🤔

Annie Agar is Back. Football is Back.

Annie won't have her first NFL recap of course until after the games of Week One but she has posted this funny bit on the new line up of schools in the BIG 10.

@nsxguy  Here is an update for you regarding those that have yet to get their Picks in. 

 

I have notified  @doctoro that he needs to get his Picks in today.

I have contacted @chisag and asked him to send me his Picks today if he is unable to get back to normal WRX status and post them himself. 

I expect @tatertot to get his Picks in today.

I just submitted Hickory's Picks.

 

 

 

I am golfing this afternoon so I will be away until early this evening.

Good morning touch. Well, them Seahawks are a bit of a mystery this year with Pete gone and the new guy in. The new guy is a defensive mastermind but the players still have to carry out his will, so we will see. The offense should continue to be adequate.  I hope a lot of pundits are overlooking us and that we're back in the playoffs this year, with a vengeance. Though, to start things off I was surprised the Hawks were made a 6-point favorite over Denver. We will see.

Ha!  I'm not that serious.  True story, I paid for my last two years of Uni booking bets, parlay cards.  It was easy money being the house for a bunch of dummies chasing dummy odds.  I can't tell you how many times I heard "I almost hit that four teamer!". Whatever dude, you haven't hit one all year, not even close.

 

Post Uni in did my own betting, 95% NFL, and dabble a bit on MLB/NBA.  But this was a looong time ago when Vegas messed up a line or two every week.  Then got married, family, discovered golf, and had nowhere near the time to "study" for NFL.

 

The whole sports betting world has totally passed me by, worse, I've been lapped 100 times.  I've never played fantasy football.  I couldn't name 5 players on most NFL teams.  So my pics here are far from serious.  But it's time to get back in,  starting here, just for fun, and want to see if I can get rid of some "biases".  

 

Good luck all!

I love CJ Stroud!  What a rookie year!  Houston is favored to be in the Super Bowl Derby.  But Tony, Tony, Tony might have something to say at their home opener as a dog!  Indy + 2.5 PP Power to the Colts as a opening home dog Power play #1 for the season!

I think Jayden Daniels will rise up and be a force very soon . But right now Tampa at home only giving 3 is a no-brainer in my book Bucs -3

I do not know what to think of the Falcons and the acquisition of Kirk Cousins. I think he is definitely an upgrade especially when he is not playing in prime time

Give me Non-Prime Time Cousins at home Atlanta -3
