Instead of coming up with new material for this pick 'em thread, I'll just recycle my effort from the previous night. After all, if the Jets could do it, why not me?
The Jets stunned the JHF pick 'em crowd last game, being on the receiving end of Capital Punishment despite our predicting otherwise. See what I did there? We were playing the Capitals so I made a reference to Capital Punishment even though no one was executed. From what I saw on TV the Jets were incapable of any kind of execution last game.
Laughter. It's all I have after that debacle. Too bad I don't have any funny material, just meandering thoughts that bring to mind a variety of chemical imbalances. Anyway, down to virtual business:
Season gaming summary:
Ottawa - $100 loss
Boston - $ 50 gain ($100 bet at -200 odds)
Washington - $155 gain ($100 bet at +155 odds)
Pittsburgh - $124 gain ($100 bet at +124)
Long Island - $69 gain ($100 bet at -145)
Montreal - $63 gain ($100 bet at -160)
Florida - $100 loss
Tampa - $57 gain
Florida - $70 gain
Toronto - $100 loss
Ottawa - $100 loss
Philly - $100 loss
Pens - $67 profit
Bruins - $71 profit
Buffalo - $135 profit
Carolina - $135 profit
Philly - $100 loss
New Jersey - $100 loss
Rangers - $140 profit
Devils - $91 profit
Caps - $100 loss
Florida - $100 loss
Tampa - $100 loss
Florida - $83 profit
Jersey - $100 loss
Loafs - $87 gain
Rangers - $95 gain
Loafs - $125 gain
Sens - $80 profit
Bruins - $100 loss
Caps - $100 loss
Caps - $125 gain
Thus we're up a virtual $522.
(For those following at home I've been tracking how we vote on the results of Jets games and calculating the net result for a $100 virtual bet).
For the record, JHF voters tied the call between a Jets win and a Caps win. I called for the Caps to win and I break all ties hence we got some virtual profit. Woo hoo!
Moneyline: The Jets are again solid favorites tonight at -140/+127. Winning bet on Tampa gets $127 profit, winning bet on Winnipeg gets $71 profit.
I was ready to call for a Jets win but Tampa's fired their coach. That always seems to bring about a dead cat bounce so I'm calling for a Tampa win.
Who do you like?
