Last week I went 13-3 on the straight up picks and I went 6-2 against the spread. Pretty awesome week eh?
It would have been more awesome if I didn’t accidentally hit the wrong button on two of my against the spread picks. I should have came away about $150 ahead, but instead due to hitting the wrong button and accidentally picking the wrong team twice, I actually lost a few bucks. What a bummer....

Against the Spread
This will be updated as the lines change, up until I make my bets. Remember, if you are planning on making money off of these, don’t. I do this for fun, not to feed my wife and kids.
When betting against the spread I pick what I think the spread to each game should be. Then if my spread is two or more points away from the actual spread, I place a bet on the team my spread favors.
