You have to be a premium member to read that rag online 😀

Sorry but I'm not paying 14.95 a month for Gaming Today when they give it out for free at the books in Vegas.

The first thing that strikes me about your card is that you have 10 favorites out of 16 games picked here. To compound matters a couple of your picks have serious issues like Detroit and Cleveland.

Are these picks locked in stone? Between your card and the bookies I have to go with theirs I think.

i've been using the leaders picks all year and it's done well by me (for pool purposes only). my card was due in today at noon... this being posted an hour later, i was pleased to see that i differed only on a couple plays from the leader, ones that i like, too. who knows... maybe i'm getting a hang of this whole "betting" thing!

based on what the road team did last weekend, i basically counted on LV not making the correction yet and took all the road teams, mostly dogs.

i shall be victorious yet again!

Sorry Guitar, I didn't see your reply until this morning. I don't want to critique your card now though that you can't do anything about it and get you all panicky. Lets see how these shake out on Sunday.

Good luck!
