Then you die! After last nights horrific loss and more importantly, non cover by the Cowboys, the emotional roller coaster is off the charts. As a result, tonight's release will be that of the no frills variety.
Eagles +3 Over Saints. Both teams have played extremely disappointing football this season, however the Eagles problems seem easier to diagnose/correct. While Michael Vick has cost the Eagles mightily with all his turnovers, contrast that to a Saints team which may have the worst defense in NFL history. This game falls into the coin flip category and I am siding with the Eagles.

Cowboy Up.....
After a disappointing day in the financial markets, we at Propick Sports have decided to provide our avid followers with what we like to call "blank check Friday". With all the consternation over what the presidential election means for the economy, Propick Sports fervently believes that this weekend's NFL releases will more than compensate for the current hardships that are out there. "Ask not what you can do for your bookie but what your bookie can do for you". Whenever people complain about not having enough money make sure that you forward this link with Sunday's selections.
Dallas +4 over Atlanta. This game is so stinky it pains me to see the line at only -4. Following a heartbreaking loss to the Giants, many novice handicappers believe that this will spell the end for the Cowboys. Furthermore, after crapping ourselves with the Eagles over the Falcons release last week, we believe we were a week early in predicting Atlanta's first loss of the season. Atlanta has struggled at home against weaker opponents such as Carolina and Oakland. Factor in a desperate Dallas team fighting for survival and you have a Cowboys cover.
Steelers 3.5 Over Giants. Take the Steelers moneyline $$$$$$ as well. We love the Giants but this is the perfect spot for them to come up short. After huge wins against the 49ers, Redskins, and Cowboys, the Giants are overdue for a flat performance at home. While we are no fan of the creep known as Big Ben, the Steelers veteran quarterback should be able to nullify the Giants pass rush with a short passing game. The fact that this line is hovering around 3.5 despite how poorly the Steelers have played on the road, suggests that the smart money knows something others do not.
*We will have another NFL selection coming once we complete our research. Stay tuned for College Football releases. There will be a MONSTER college play coming.

Same Theme....Different Night?
After watching the Heat cruise past a gritty veteran Boston Celtics squad two nights ago, I see an identical matchup tonight in the western conference between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the San Antonio Spurs. Like the Celtics, the Spurs are a saavy and well coached team that derives their leadership from veterans such as : Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginoboli. However, the Spurs have done an excellent job building around their aging superstars, as evidenced by last years league leading win total.
Despite a disappointing performance in last years NBA finals, the Thunder have shown marked improvement during the past few years. Even without six man of the year award winner, James Harden, the Thunder are loaded with young talent. Last years western conference playoffs were less a competition than a corination which saw the Thunder run all over their opponents. What does that all mean for tonight's home opener in San Antonio?
With the line currently sitting at Spurs -2, bookmakers are begging you to take the Thunder. From a historical point of view, it appears as though the Thunder are peaking while at best, the Spurs are holding their ground, defying father time. With seventy percent of the public backing the Thunder tonight, doesn't that mean smart money is stepping in and betting the Spurs?
Spurs -2 over the Thunder. While I am failing to adhere to one of my core tenets (aging teams), there are several other factors at work here. The Spurs are a great regular season team, specifically at home. If they are not fresh in game one of their season, then that is a terrible omen going forward. In addition, the common man is completely decked out in Kevin Durant jerseys.....what are the odds of 70% of the dopes out there being right tonight? Fade the concensus here and take the Spurs.
