Going out on a limb with Eli
At the poker game Thursday night I had a chance to bet $20 on the Patriots if I gave away 10 points. I only offered 7 points so the bet didn’t take place. I probably should have taken the bet, but I tend to be conservative and 10 points seemed like a lot. Nevertheless, I think the Patriots will win by three touchdowns. It’s easy to make predictions when you have no money on them.
Here are my picks for Sunday’s games:
Patriots by 21 over San Diego; New York by 3 over Green Bay.
What! You bet against Brett Favre? I like Favre too, but Eli is coming into his own. Brett will probably throw a couple of interceptions, and Eli will be as “on” as he’s been in the last several games. I may be going out on a bit of a limb with Eli, but I think he’ll lead the Giants to victory.
