Just in case you do have powers beyond normal prognosticators, please pick the Vikings over the Bucs next weekend. They are due, afterall, and the Bucs struggled quite a bit on offense against Dallas.

Last Week: 10-4 straight up, 8-6 against the spread.
Overall: 23-6, 17-12.
I come up with 9-5 ATS:
Against the spread winners - Colts, Falcons, Giants, Chargers, Jets, Rams, Eagles, Broncos, Packers.
Against the spread losers - Dolphins, Titans, Ravens, Lions, Vikings.
You picked the Rams to cover, and they didn’t. The line was 6 1/2, they only won by 4.
My bad. Thanks.
What’s more important is how your bookie sees it. Either way you’re in the black.

Week three predictions with (hopefully) a little more comedy should come out around noon CDT Thursday. I have the predictions and starts, just have to change the rather boring fantasy stats commentary over lunch tomorrow.
ShibbOleth, I don’t like you 
So, Weirddave, what’s your prognosis for the Ravens this weekend in Denver?
All’s fair in love and the NFC Central. Nothin’ personal. I just hope we’re getting the woeful, disorganized Vikings and not the wrathful, potent Vikes this weekend.
Oh, and ladyfoxfyre and Spiritus Mundi are on my side, but lno swings your way.
I have received a ticket to this Sunday’s Vikings game against the Buccaneers.
Gazoo, if you desire an agent in the stands to … influence … the outcome of the game, let me know. I’ve got a tire iron with Keyshawn Johnson’s name written all over it. (Of course, now I think of the Simpsons bowling episode, where Mister Burns limps in on a bad knee, Moe rushes out in a ski mask and bashes his leg with a crowbar, knocking the gimp knee back into place.)
And Weirddave? Sorry about that … I was too busy wondering how I’m gonna come up with rent money now that I lost it all on Baltimore. Man, losing to the Bengals? I can see losing to the Panthers, or even the Bears, but the BENGALS?
But why worry? Next year the Bucs are outta the NFC Central with the addition of the Texans to the league. No more will we worry! Ha! Ha! The Bucs are gone! Ha! And then we’ll just lose to the Bears and Packers all the time. (Detroit will remain our whipping boy, though.)
