Whenever there's a win, there's always a loss. Therefore, the above should read "15 wins, 15 losses."

2. Ravens by 1 at home...hunch, Houston is the better team.

If Houston is the better team, they'll beat the Ravens. If they don't, they weren't.

16. Raiders by one...my upset of the week

If you see it coming this far in advance, you won't be upset.

Well

Technically no, and I can't really argue with you, but I will anyways...but in the gambling world of sports, there can be more winners than losers... and for the house, hopefully, more losers than winners. This can be objectively tested by who has the biggest wad in their pocket.

The better team can lose a game and win the super bowl. Only one super bowl winner has gone undefeated throughout the year. In betting football, to be successful, one has to pick the weekly upsets, which separates the field.


If you see it coming this far in advance, you won't be upset.


So true, I will be happy in that I picked an upset...but odds are I will lose this pick, and there for be upset.


If it wasn't glee club, band, and chess club...cross country, science club, and drama?

5. titans by 2, I still don't buy into rivers...yet?


The Tennessee Titans will probably win mainly because Chargers' receiver Malcom Floyd won't play this Sunday at Tennessee.

16. Raiders by one...my upset of the week


No Way!!! The Broncos and Manning should easily crush the Raiders this Monday night. The Broncos will probably end up going to the Super Bowl this season.

All odds are that Denver will win...and I realize It is a loooong shot, but they are my upset of the week?
