Happy Friday everyone and get ready for a serious amount of top notch NFL action. By this time you have probably figured out that the NFL playoffs are in full swing and there are all types of pools going on. Boxes like the Super Bowl pools, eliminator pools with the spread and all types of variations in between. So if you have the chance to pick your own teams this weekend, how do you make your decision? There are all kinds of analytics being done…numbers being crunched, life savings being squandered this weekend…I have the fix for all of that…just like the NCAA Mens Basketball tournament, I like to pick my teams based on who would win if the battle was in real life -
Despite the spread giving 7 points to the Baltimore Ravens you kinda have to think that a New England Patriot (with a gun) beats out a bird. While the raven is a formidable bird and the guns used by the American Revolutionaries were primitive there really isn't much to discuss here…Pats win by 10 (especially in New England)
The late game on Saturday is the Carolina Panthers (-11 SEA) playing away from the den (I assume that's where panthers live) in Seattle against the Seattle Seahawks. This is one of those weird ones where it is really, really hard to compare. Both are pretty solid predators in their own right, but one flies and one doesn't. I am not sure if panthers are capable of flight but I think that for the most part flying in this case will come in very handy. I say Seattle wins but doesn't cover the spread in this long drawn out battle of beast versus bird. That seahawk looks pissed...
Stay tuned for Sunday's matchups which get kinda funky in that it's two dudes fighting at 1PM and two horses at 4PM.
Enjoy your Friday & Saturday, eat chips!
HAPPY WATCHING!!!
