I found JAX -2 at pointspread.com available at Hollywood, but that's
too obscure for me. For ng purposes put me down for the -2.5 that's
widely available.

2-0 Bubba, good job!

How about my -2 going to -2.5 . . . I don't know what the latest
commonly accepted meaning of a "bad beat" is, but I gotta tell you,
THAT REALLY SUCKED!

Good Call HC and as I recall James as well. You guys were right and
Jacqueline was wrong about the JAX game.

Excellent handicapping, HC. Jacqueline did 3-2-0 in the playoffs and
did not predict the Super Bowl. Now she's struggling to acheive 50%
at NBA.

Which is different than you would have me at. You're crediting me with

wrap up)

If you're interested . . .

+5.5...YES +550 Greek 50 to win 275.

I have: Will the game be decided by exactly 3 points? W +2.75...YES


+550 Greek 50 to win 275.

And finally, where you have: 6-3, +17.7 units!
I have: 6-1 +12.05 units

I'm counting the three margin of victory plays as one play, because
going in it was known that there was no way to win more than one of
the three, so I'm looking at the three plays as subsets of one play,
1-0 +1.00 rather than 1-2 +1.00, the units involved, of course, have
no bearing on this.

Just want to take this opportunity to once again thank Brian for all
the hard work and the tons of fun that his yearly RGS Football
Challenge is.

And now that the Mets signed Santana, my prospects look that much
better in Steve's MLB contest that'll be starting up soon enough. ;-)

W +1.00 NYG winning margin of victory will be:


1-3 +600 Greek 25 to win 150

YES +550 Greek 25 to win 137.50
Gonna double that up to 50 to win 275.

1-0 +2.75

Super Bowl Summary
6-1* +12.05
* I'm counting the three plays on the margin of victory as one play
because going in the object was to win one out of the three -
obviously impossible to win more than one of the three - none of that
effects the unit total

Playoffs Final
14-7 +15.61
