I'm back with my week two picks. The spreads are large this week. Half of the games have a spread of a touchdown or more, and three are double digits. Large spreads are accompanied by large money lines. This is when you start to wonder if it makes sense… more »

As is custom, after the games have completed, I'll review how I did, including how much money I would have won or lost had I bet $10.00 per bet. Remember, I'm making three bets per game - straight up winner, spread winner and over/under, so that's a tota… more »
