Crazy Davo Checks in For Another Sadistic NFL Season. Thank You Week 1!!

The NFL is back and the sadistic nature of Sundays are back for the next 5 months. The sadistic nature of betting we put ourselves through on countless game changing moments affecting spreads like the stale jam I put on my PB&J last week. But like the many PB&J’s made for my lunch, those bets and those samiches make us degenerate gamblers feel alive!!!!

DET 19 @ CHI 14

Case in point, Calvin freaking Johnson. Bottom line is those who had an inclination on the Detroit Lions to cover the +240 moneyline were downright robbed by Calvin “and Hobbs” Johnson on his soft catch at the end of their game at Chicago with no time on the clock. This TD was called back by the black and white rule that he must come back up with the ball after catching it. It’s a brutal rule, but the ref’s made the right call in enforcing that effing rule. In losing big money on this call reversal is on Calvin, as he should know the rule, his coaches should know the rule, and Calvin should have just tucked that ball into his body and fell to ground. Do not victimize yourself Detroit Lions fan!!! Calvin effed up and cost us huge money.

And this blogger will not victimize himself on this moneyline bet as moneyline is the seductress devil in the red dress. Stick to the spreads Adolph!!!! The Lions indeed covered, and another reason why the Lions are no victims in that something was shining on them with their goal line stand on 4^th and goal by Chicago as well as stopping da Bears 2-point conversion in their last TD. These 2 helped cover the 6.5 point spread.

So what’s the end-of-the 80’s sitcom lesson learned here? NO MONEYLINE!!!!!!! Stay away from this seemly seductress!!!!!

<sigh> Cue in future blogs and bets where sexy moneyline bets of +200 are made. Damn this sadistic degenerate gambling running though my veins!!!


CIN 24 @ NE 34

The Pats are back. Brady is Brady. He’s now back due to a healthy knee and a revamped O-line. They downright dominated the trenches yesterday vs. the 2009 Soft Knocks Bengals. Brady had all day to pass and the running back committee had gaping holes to run through. Add the YAC Attack of those running backs and Wes Welker, and you have a dominating offense.

They shouldn’t be distracted about Randy Moss going Randy Moss in his post-game press conference. His comments last night after the game regarding that, in a “business sense” he probably won’t be a Pat next year. This is no shock these days. All athletes will bicker through the media due to having no contract extensions while playing the last year of their contract. The bottom line is that everybody has insecurities when it comes to work uncertainty. And it looks like Moss is playing the “game” through the media to a tee. The guy has to maximize his worth for that next contract, so it seems like he is genuinely disgruntled due to “not feeling wanted” by the Pats, but the question comes to surface, is part of this disgruntlement due to the fact that he may know that he’s not the best receiver in the league, let alone his own team?

As much as Moss’ body language will be full of moping and feeling sorry for himself on the sidelines this year, he will make plays, and the Pats will cover week in and week out.

GB 27 @ PHI 20

Cue the QB controversy! Michael Vick should and will eventually be the starting QB for the Eagles. But as entertaining as Vick is, he IS NOT an elite quarterback. He is AN ELITE FOOTBALL PLAYER. Mike will win games by his athleticism, and if he has a breakout year, this has to be considered one the greatest comebacks in history. He did a horrible thing. He paid his dues, and if he resurrects his career, then all credit to Vick.

But his stat lines on incredible games during his career, including last night, have him running over 100 yards while throwing under 200 yards. His plays on those rushes will be amazing drawn up plays but also amazing broken plays. The one dimensionality of his attack with no airness will catch up to him. Vick will win games on his own, but the clock will strike midnight eventually.

Until then, Vick will fill up the highlight films and affect spreads left and right. Consider this degenerate gambler a fan only of Vick; I will stay away from Eagles games. Betting against the spread is too risky on those unpredictable broken plays. But, when Vick is taking snaps under center, you better believe I’ll be watching and waiting for amazing to happen.

SF @ SEA

Boy did we all get fooled by both Seattle and San Fran.

Seattle got lucky off tips and INT’s off of a horrible Alex Smith. The team that wins the horrible NFC West will have be the biggest NFL Playoff home underdog in history. +15.5 points anyone?

OK, so these takes will get me through the huge beats from Week One. I gotta recharge my one dimensionality betting batteries. Is one dimensionality even a word? Will Adolph stay away from the moneyline bets?

Probably not. Bring on Week 2!!!!
