8/16 Thursday game

ok I missed posting picks for Monday's games, I would have gotten BAL correct but a push on the total, w/DEN HC Shanahan record for preseason I suppose I would have picked them, though I would have favored under much more.

on to this thursday's game:

08/16 8:00 PM
451 Mia 34½ D front 7stacked,secondary?'s, will QB Green play entire 1st half again? probowl punter? WR/PR/KR Ginn too good to leave off field UUU???
452 KC -3 same Edwards mantra as last week "we want to win, I expect to win"
pick UNDER*** and MIA

8/12 preseason

08/12 8:00 PM
289 Sea 35 U
290 SD -3.5 X

the total has moved a bit toward the under, I wish I had more time to check on QB's
SD has depth at all positions thus earning my pick and I don't expect SEA QB Hasselbeck to play w/QB Wallace to start, but for how long?

SD QB Rivers will start but again for how long? same question w/QB Whitehurst and the others

officially, a no pick, but I'll take SD and the under

8/11 results

ATS 6-8

unexpected GB really did start fast, but PIT was uninterested?

TEN QB Young announced will not play one hour before game and WAS DOESN'T start fast

CHI doesn't appear to be deep

OAK OL plays well in 1st qtr (only game I watched - just 1st qtr and parts 3rd and 4th)
ARI QB Leinart misses WR Fitzgerald on a couple of passes (high)

for the season ATS 16-12
