hmm...beat:

MIA and STL, a combined 2-18
a pretty bad CHI team
a bad MIN team
overrated NYG's twice
PHI-bad
WAS, decent win there
NYJ....

combined record of opponents that they beat 36-61

GB: 52-57

Well yeah, that's because Dallas lost to a an undefeated team and the Packers lost to a team below .500. That's some pretty dishonest manipulation of data right there. Losing to a bad team is as much of a barometer of a team's ability as beating a bad team. The Cowboys and Packers have played pretty similar schedules. Packers have had a slightly harder schedule in pure win-loss, Cowboys with a slightly harder (though possibly skewed by the NE game) from a DVOA standpoint.

NFL Network just announced both KGB and Woodson will not be playing fwiw.

pack +7.5 -117 (WSEX)

I've been wavering on the total. My numbers tell me to take the over. Everything else says it's a tarp. I'm going to stay off. All I have for the night are:

Packers +7 (-115)
Risk 1u

Cowboys ML (-275)
Risk 2.934u

Yes, I realize those two combined are -EV. I made the Cowboys bet when I decided I didn't quite care for my Packers +7 bet. Hoping this game is won on a last second FG by Nick Folk.

Question...

Apparently I DO have the NFL Network. Will I be able to see the game or will I have to order the special package or something? I seem to recall people not being able to see any games on the NN even though getting the channel was in their cable package.

this is an active thread so i need some quick help with a dumb question: On Wsex my co-worker wants to place some futures bets...i.e. bet on dallas to win the superbowl.

when u go to the site it says

Dallas Sell: 11 Buy: 13 then +669

If u click on buy or sell it asks u to place an order and for dallas it say $13 buy and then # of contracts...i assume that means number of future bets.

so is it simply saying you want to buy a future bet of Dallas +669 to win SB and your wager is $13? When u click on the buy menu it goes as low as $1 and as high as $23. WTF?

I'm totally [censored] lost???? and i tried reading the help instructions on the site. any help for a retard please

Well that score happening in the 1st helped quite a bit. Go Cowboys.
