You might have been wondering where I’ve been the past two weeks. Probably not, but you might have been. I was laying low, surveying the field. While suckers were continuing to throw their money at the wall, I was watching from the shadows. And now finally, like Batman, I reemerge when the world needs me …
So I had a bad opening week to kick off the season. Whatever. I told you which NFL teams you should bet on, not that you shouldn’t vaccinate your children. Okay, sorry. I’m just a little irked after the NFL’s opening weekend. I had a few good calls (Raiders, Colts, Cardinals), and some pretty bad …
The Head vs. The Heart I should be coming into Super Bowl Sunday with a 6-3-1 mark against these playoff spreads. But the refereeing in the NFC Championship has me at 5-4-1 instead. I’m not mad at all, thanks for asking. Some people think this Super Bowl is going to be boring. While it might …

The Head vs. The Heart Los Angeles Chargers at Baltimore Ravens (-2.5)Sunday, Jan 6 – 1:05 EST The Head:I simply do not understand this “nobody wants to see the Ravens in the playoffs” narrative. Baltimore did go 6-1 in rookie QB Lamar Jackson’s starts, but it was their defense leading the way. What Jackson does …
The Head vs. The Heart Indianapolis Colts at Houston Texans (-1.5)Saturday, Jan 5 – 4:35 EST The Head: As you already know, after starting 0-3, the Texans reeled off nine straight victories. Here are those nine teams, and their respective records coming into those games: Indianapolis Colts (1-2) Dallas Cowboys (2-2) Buffalo Bills (2-3) Jacksonville …
