ATLSLIM 6-3

BOL ATLSLIM

Before we get into Anything I have some serious news that needs to be shared with you. This thread Might be the last thread in the contest for the next 3-4 weeks. I am dealing with a personal issue that is going to come to a head tomorrow. That is the reason why I'm posting the results and spreads 1 week early. You will also notice that I will not be updating my personal website www.prosportsbettingtips.com either as I will be UNABLE to access a computer during that time. I ask everybody to bear with me during this difficult time.

There is a 75% chance that I will have to stall the competition as well as you won't be hearing from me for a short period of time. If that's the case, when I do return the Competition will continue from there. I want everybody to carry on as usual and make your picks this week.

That is all.

Thanks for the understanding Slim.

Mac, if this means you will be absent for the next three or four weeks, we need to cancel our competition until a later date. We are tied now and that is acceptable if we come to a draw. Your personal life is more important than our little competition and the less on your mind , the better. I will therefore, not be posting any picks this week until I hear from you, because as I understand, you will post no lines for the next 3-4 weeks. Thanks, it has been fun. Best of luck to you in your personal matters. ATLSLIM

San Diego Chargers -6.0 at <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice:smarttags" /><st1:City><st1lace>Miami</st1lace></st1:City> Dolphins<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>
So the Chargers have done exactly what I thought they would do the last 2 weeks. Come out and Win and show everybody why they are still the best team in the league. <st1:City><st1lace>Miami</st1lace></st1:City> is my team, but I don’t like them in this game, not even with this spread. <st1:City><st1lace>San Diego</st1lace></st1:City> is the healthiest it’s been in a long time and that doesn’t bode well for <st1:City><st1lace>Miami</st1lace></st1:City>. Small ball is not going to work against <st1:City><st1lace>San Diego</st1lace></st1:City>, as they are going to stack the box and force the ball into Pennington’s hands. At that point they should throw the house at him as he is not a threat to throw it down field. <st1:City><st1lace>San Diego</st1lace></st1:City> will roll in this game big time.
<o></o>
Mac Picks: <st1:City><st1lace>San Diego</st1lace></st1:City> -6.0<o></o>
<o></o>
<st1:State><st1lace>Washington</st1lace></st1:State> Redskins at <st1:City><st1lace>Philadelphia</st1lace></st1:City> Eagles -5.5<o></o>
People have called me crazy the last 2 years that I’ve been rolling with <st1:State><st1lace>Washington</st1lace></st1:State>. I said that <st1:State><st1lace>Washington</st1lace></st1:State> would cover easily against the Cowboys and may even beat them. Well I guess people are now starting to see what I’ve always known about this Redskins club, and that is that they have the potential to be in the Super bowl this year. <st1:State><st1lace>Washington</st1lace></st1:State> has the perfect team. They have a solid defense and good special teams. And on offense they will run the ball relentlessly and have a lot of receiving options for Jason Campbell, who is really coming into his own. I like the Redskins to cover here, and I expect them to get the outright win as well.
<o></o>
Mac Picks: <st1:State><st1lace>Washington</st1lace></st1:State> +5.5





Writeups for Minnesota game coming tomorrow.

Mac, had no respect for your Redskins until now. They are a legitimate SB contender. Rookie Head Coach shouldn't hold them back. They are beating up the Eagles. Good luck!!! ATLSLIM

Week 5 Monday Night Special<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>
<?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice:smarttags" /><ST1:STATE><ST1LACE>Minnesota</ST1LACE></ST1:STATE> Vikings at <st1:City><st1lace>New Orleans</st1lace></st1:City> Saints -3.0<o></o>
Welcome back Brian McKinney. Adrian Peterson and this offense have been missing you big time. This game is just a TERRIBLE match-up for the Saints. Offensively the Saints are going to be in trouble, they are missing 3 key receivers (Shockey, Colston, Patten), and I don’t think they’ll be able to move the ball with <st1:State><st1lace>Minnesota</st1lace></st1:State>’s suffocating Run D. On the flipside of the ball, <st1:City><st1lace>New Orleans</st1lace></st1:City> defense is terrible. How they are going to stop Adrian Peterson, now that he’s getting his LT back is beyond me. Even Gus Frerotte will hook up with Berrian on at least 1 deep ball, and that’ll be enough to seal the deal for the Vikings. <st1:State><st1lace>Minnesota</st1lace></st1:State> covers here, and probably wins this thing outright.

Mac Picks: Minnesota +3.0<o></o>

Mac, good luck tonight! Don't have an opinion yet, will cap it tonight. Crush the books !!!!!! ATLSLIM
