-Vikings will miss #1 & #2 WR = ouch.
-SD looked reeealll good last week, Saints can't stop that O.

Your comments on the Giants, Vikes and Chargers make no sense when compared to your picks. You also have the wrong spreads for several picks, not that it matters.

I'm guessing you meant this:
<font color="red">$400 Chiefs +3
$300 Giants -9
$200 Colts -6.5
$100 Chargers -6 </font>

Confirm these changes, or you'll be an unhappy camper (or a disguised genious) come Tuesday

Okay, see I never knew how to do this. Though I haven't really looked into, and can't since I'm at work (They don't know '2+2', but they know "How to bet on sports." Ha.)

I assumed that my picks meant,
Chiefs win by more than 3
Bears lose by more than 9
Vikings lose by more than 6.5
Saints lose by more than 6

[/ QUOTE ]

My listing is the correct way to do it. You pick the team that you expect to cover and the point spread they have to cover (or get to work with, for your Chiefs pick)
It's the same way you'd make a bet on it "I'll take the Giants and give 9 points"

Good thing I caught this! I'm putting you in for
<font color="green">$400 Chiefs +3
$300 Giants -9
$200 Colts -6.5
$100 Chargers -6

It takes weeks of practice to be able to perfect this talent

This rookie definitely lacks the skills [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] But it's fun and this is a cheap way to get better.

Let it be known, that in my constant confusion and learning of this thing, I want:

$400 Chiefs -3
(my other picks)

Meaning (for my own sake) that the chiefs will score 4 or more points more than the Bucs. If that is not what my line means, that i want want it to mean. An example final score would be: Chiefs 28 Bucs 24.

(Thanks, and sorry for the confusion. Next week won't be so bad.)
