So, like I mentioned, I’m not getting any better at this.  I fixing to go 1 for 3 on my picks as Washington State and Cal are going down to the wire…close enough for me to count it.  Of course, I will wait until the final to post this…

I didn’t watch one second of football today.  I watched the first 7 innings of the World Series and checked in with some scores while that game was going on.  I need to remove my heart from my betting.  I’ve learned two things about making my picks public.  One, get smarter; and two, expand the second section of intriguing games.  

This week definitely shows the struggle of it all.  Oregon wins, but I lose; Oregon wins, but they lose their QB.  Alabama wins, but only by 3 with a spread of 3.5.  

Here are some observations from someone who didn’t watch any of the games.  Arizona State:  Is there a bigger disappointment?  Personally, I never saw why they were considered so good.  Good players don’t always make good teams.  Tennessee:  If there is a bigger disappointment (to their fans, not to the rest of us) than Arizona State, it’s the Volunteers.  Georgia:  My heart goes out to the Bulldogs.  I really do hope that D.J. isn’t dinged too bad.  With the cocktail party coming up, they’re gonna need him.  Alabama:  I’m glad I didn’t watch this game; they barely scored more than the Astros and White Sox.    

Game’s over.  It’s official.  1 out of 3 bets.  Next week will be interesting with the Oregon (minus Clemens) Cal game and the Georgia (minus Shockley) Florida game.
