Yi can post the lines or something.  I'm too busy doing the happy dance at the Dolphins' house cleaning.

It's football, it is sleep inducing by itself.

No. Probably not.

Well, it might be a close game due to shittiness, so there's that.

You forgot the magic word Moldy.

What am I missing about Colts/Texans?  Best young QB, most dominant defensive player.

Unless Brady gets hurt the Pats should be a lock to cover.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

If they were a lock to cover, Vegas wouldn't have set the line there.

That said, I gotta admit, I'm surprised the spread isn't bigger.

Or maybe 30 year old Emmett Smith and Troy Aikman step out of a time machine and suit up for the game.

No Romo,  no Dez Bryant, no Murray, how they going to score?

Plus you know Belicheat will run up the score in the 4th quarter.

Home field, plus Wheedon looked pretty good IMO.

Still 9 looks a little short.  I might take 14.

No idea, but the bookies are very good at setting the lines (after all, their livelihood depends on it).  And I did say that I'm surprised that the spread is that small--I would have guessed the Patriots would be favored by at least 2 TDs, given all of the Dallas injuries.
