7th annual Weenie Dog Football Challenge

Being that this is the week that both Roscoe and Blackjack were born...I figured it would be appropriate to start this thread, in preparation for the upcoming football season!

Happy Birthday weenie dogs, you both turned 7 yesterday!


Ahhhh yesssss...it is that time of the year. Time for football season to start. The opening game is not too far away, and that means its time to bring back the Blackjack vs Roscoe weenie dog football challenge!

Last year was the 6th season for this hot dog challenge and most already know that Blackjack won this contest in a land slide! Blackjack ended up taking the grand prize of a package chockfull of delicious gourmet cookie bones!

Up for grabs again this year, at the end of the season is a container chockfull of gourmet cookie bones, to be provided by the losing dogs owner and shipped to the winning dogs home!! Also up for grabs is the weenie dog cup, pictured here. heh heh



All of you lucky LVA friends, dog lovers, football fans and gambling junkies are in for a treat.

Every week Blackjack and Roscoe will post ONE NFL pick, with the games corresponding spread. We will keep track of win/loss totals as each week progresses. The pooch with the highest win total, at the end of the season, and through the play offs, will be receiving the gourmet cookie bone basket as his grand prize.

Here is where you LVA folks come in to play….since both pups will be trying their hardest to get them paws on that Cookie bone basket, you can bet your ass that they are going to provide nothing but the best, and most sold winning picks every week.

If you live in Vegas, or find yourself on vacation in Vegas, make sure you check on the Weenie Dog picks and see what they have picked that weekend!

You can take any one of their picks, or both of them, and go to the sports book to bet them yourself, so you can clean up some BIG BUCKS too!

This thread will be used exclusively for Roscoe and Blackjack’s picks ONLY.


Feel free to comment on what your opinion is, on either of their picks, and by all means root for the pup that’s in the lead at any given time. They love receiving props for being good little weenies!

Spreads will be taken using the line at the Las Vegas Hilton, and taken from this web site. Vegas ODDS

To allow for all our friends to take advantage of our information, and avoid confusing money line changes, the official weekly challenge picks must be submitted by Blackjack and Roscoe by 4PM PST on that NFL weekends Friday.

Of course if one of their picks happen to be on a Thursday night game, that pick must be in at least an hour before kick off time.

Lets all make some MAJOR DOLLARS, from their picks THIS YEAR!!

Blackjack had a nice record of 12-7 last year, while Roscoe finished with a record of 10-8-1

Both pooches had solid seasons, and there was money to be made.


Good luck and good betting this year! $$$$

Alright you weenies lets get a pickin'

Nice to see you Rizzo, we surely need a report of your exploits.
Kick some major dog ass Blackjack.
Oh yeah baby! I cannot wait to whip some tail!

I am going to kick some more weenie dog a$s this year. Love me some doggie cookies again!

Good luck, Roscoe. Here is a tip for my brother: Bet The Jacksonville Jaguars big. I hear they are primed for a Great Dane year.
It's time to unveil the first Weenie Dog pick of the 2014 season!

I am hoping to get out of the gate fast this season by picking the Chicago Bears to cover the 6 1/2-point spread against the Buffalo Counterfeit Bills. I like the Bears to win the NFC North and this is an easy win and a chance to make a statement. It's only Monday, but I want to get this pick in before the spread has a chance to widen to 7. Take Chicago minus-6 1/2. And while you're at it, you might throw a couple of bones on Doug Marrone to be the first NFL coach fired this season.

Good luck to everyone riding my back to another money-winning year.

What do you have Roscoe?
Happy Birthday Boys
Its time for my first pick of the 2014/15 NFL season! Now, to kick off this 7th annual weenie dog challenge my super five star pick of the week is the Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 over the Cleveland Browns


The Browns lost the number one Wide receiver in the league, Josh Gordon, for a few games, and there is a QB conflict, which Hoyer should not have won the starting job, but the immature Manziel and his fingers did him in....yet again.

The Browns are a mess on both sides of the ball, and the Steelers will not have any problem running over these creampuffs!

Take that to the bank!

Good luck to all those who are making these weenie picks this weekend. May the power of the brown weenie be with you #RoscoeRules

Thanks, and enjoy the football weekend.

--Roscoe
Well pups, looks like you both missed this week....
Well, the pups are off to a rough start. Both of them lost their Week #1 pick

The Bears not only did not cover the spread, tey got bitch whipped by the Buffalo Bills handing Blackjack his first loss

The Steelers did win their game, but only won by three points and did NOT cover the 6.5 point spread.

***Standings after Week # 1 ***

1st place (tie) Roscoe and Blackjack at 0 Wins and 1 loss each



Better luck next week Weenie dogs!
