I will be sticking my weenie neck on the line by taking a road team this week. I like Atlanta minus-2 1/2 points at Minnesota. Westgate/the old LVH is the only line at 2 1/2 points so I am getting this pick in before it changes. The Vikings will be without Adrian Peterson and rookie Teddy Bridgewater will make his first start at quarterback. He's going to be really good, but it will be a learning experience.

Go Falcons!

Good luck, everyone.


Matt Cassel is out for the season.
Man, I need a winner. I thought about this one, long and hard, and here is what I came up with.

This week, I am taking the Indianapolis Colts minus 7.5 points over the Tennessee Titans.

Colts have been looking really good this year, Andrew Luck is putting up big numbers. Tennessee haven't shown me much so far this year.

I think its a solid pick.

Good luck to all of you who are making these weenie wagers

That hook is just begging to bite you in the ass.
Roscoe finally gets his first win, while brother Blackjack's win streak ends at two


The Falcons played awful, allowing the Vikes to score at will. Even though they made it close in the 2nd half, the vikes continued to score and blew them out, handing BJ, a tough loss


Meanwhile, Roscoe's Colts pick whoopped that ass!


***Standings after Week #4 ***

1st place Blackjack with 2 Wins and 2 losses

2nd place Roscoe with 1 Wins and 3 losses


Better luck next week Weenie dogs!

Look out Roscoe. It's time for me to storm back with a win and I have just the bet to pull it off.

The line on the Kansas City vs. San Francisco game has overreacted to last week's action. The 49ers needed a goal line stand to beat a very respectable Philly team. The Chiefs, meanwhile, steamrolled the overrated Patriots on Monday night. Don't put too much stock in that game. The "check engine" light has come on for the has-been Patriots. Plus, Kansas City travels after a short week, a bothersome issue.

San Francisco opened as 7 1/2-point favorites, but bettors have reacted with a ton of cash on Kansas City to drop the line to an attractive 6 points. The 49ers win this game by at least a touchdown.

Take SF and minus-6 points to the doggy bank!
Go Blackjack. BTW I think that is a good pick.
Finally starting a weenie win streak, lets go for one more.

This week, I am sticking with the Indianapolis Colts minus 3.5 points over the Baltimore Ravens

Colts are SUPER SOLID and Andrew Luck is putting up big numbers. The Ravens have issues at Running back and their passing game is not all that good


I think its a solid pick.

Good luck to all of you who are making these weenie wagers

***Standings Update ***

Roscoe chalks up another good win, while brother Blackjack's losing streak is at two


The Niners played well, for the win, but not well enough to cover the spread as they only won by 5 points, missing the spread by a point and a half, and handing BJ, another tough loss


Meanwhile, Roscoe's Colts pick whoopped that ass!


***Standings after Week #5 ***

1st place (tie) Blackjack with 2 Wins and 3 losses

1st place (tie) Roscoe with 2 Wins and 3 losses


Its a whole new ball game now boys!!


Better luck next week Weenie dogs!

I was ready to bite Colin Kaepernick's ankles after he overthrew a receiver in the end zone in the fourth quarter that would have allowed the 49ers to beat the modest 6-point spread last week and costed me a painful defeat vs. the spread by one stupid Milkbone.

This week I will bounce back with the contest's first over-under wager of the year. I am taking the over-50 1/2 points in the New York football Giants and Philadelphia Eagles game. Both these teams have vulnerabilities defensively. We will see some points scored in this game.

Hope everyone has a winning weekend. What do you have, Roscoe?
