I’m still in a holiday hangover and quite busy so I just don’t have time to do a Weekly Digest post. But I want to let you know that I am very close to fully decided on the winners of the book review contest and will announce them this week. I know which are in the running for winner or runner up, but I can’t decide which is the #1 winner among them. (In general it’s been so hard.) But this week!
The Lions are 7-4 against the spread. I don't know if a team's record and a team's record ATS are at all correlated but I'd think so at the extremes. It just seems like a brutal season for a Lions team that has been in so many games.
During the last Lions winless season Coach Rod Marinelli gave a speech about trying to dig their way out. Many people mocked it but I always found to be an inspiring and existentialist speech. "My shovel is sharp, my pick is sharp, my will is outstanding."
This is a little too Bill Simmons-esque of me, because it is completely irrational, but I refuse to have anything to do with the Bengals gambling-wise after I was eliminated from my survivor pool when they made Mike White look like Joe Montana
Book Review Contest Results Coming and NFL Picks in Lieu of a Weekly Digest
Mac Jones must have read this piece.
Freddie I just now realized how funny, honest and multifaceted you are! Just a belated Thanksgiving gift, this comment is. Cheers!
Ahh that Mac Jones train did not derail. Quite the opposite
