RANDOM DAVE THOUGHTS
Dave Carney 1/4/2021 On Sunday Tom Brady surpassed Brett Favre on the NFL’s all-time starts list, edging past Favre’s 298 to reach the 299 plateau. Since Brady is 43 and still playing strong, I thought it would be a great day to look back at what a true BAD A$% Favre was by watching his […]
Read MoreDave Carney 1/4/2021 Overall record: (0-0 in 2021) / (110-90 in 2020) How did I get here?: With a new year comes a new, fresh, 0-0 record! I ended 2020 with a loss on a Four-Team-Teaser thanks to Clemson and their inability to show up and COVER, especially considering all that trash that Clemson coach […]
Read MoreDave Carney 12/31/2020 Overall record: 110-89 How did I get here?: Wisconsin showed up to play in the Mayo Bowl, and wow did the Wake Forest Demon Deacons collapse. Wake Forest was my bet yesterday at (+10), meaning they were a 10 point UNDERDOG. What started out to be a Wake Forest run-away, up 14-0 […]
Read MoreDave Carney 12/30/2020 Overall record: 110-88 How did I get here?: Finally picked up a win in college basketball that’s how!! Tuesday I took Rutgers to cover a 3 point spread at home versus Purdue (Rutgers -3), with the thinking that Ron Harper Jr of Rutgers would have a big night, coming in averaging 23 […]
Read MoreDave Carney 12/29/2020 Overall record: 109-88 How did I get here?: Wow, another college hoops game and ANOTHER loss for me. The Wisconsin Badgers were hosting the Maryland Terrapins and were favored by 9.5 points (-9.5). With only one loss this season, on the road versus Marquette, the Badgers had been flawless, especially at home. […]
Read MoreDave Carney 12/28/2020 This morning I was waxing poetic about the Badgers chances of winning a National Championship this year with a stacked roster of seniors, and freshman sensation, La Crosse’s Jonathan Davis from Central High School. When I brought this up to Grant Bilse (Wisco Sports Show) this morning, and said the only team […]
Read MoreDave Carney 12/28/2020 Overall record: 109-87 How did I get here?: Oh the NFL on Christmas and how you VEXED me!!! On Thursday I was all-in on the Vikings and Saints being a low-scoring, in the trench, tough NFC battle. I was so convinced of the “tough” nature of this game, I went along with […]
Read MoreDave Carney 12/23/2020 Overall record: 109-86 How did I get here?: Another over-estimation that’s how. I way overestimated the NBA’s lack of fundamental defense and just how free-flowing this game is. Yesterday I took the Lakers/Clippers game to go UNDER the total of 223 points. The stats, recent history, the Lakers only 72 days removed […]
Read MoreDave Carney 12/22/2020 Overall record: 109-85 How did I get here?: Another solid play (on paper), and another BAD beat that’s how! On Monday (Muppet) Night Football the Cincinnati Bengals were supposed to lose big-time to the reeling Pittsburgh Steelers, and the game was supposed to be a super low scoring affair going well UNDER […]
Read MoreDave Carney 12/21/2020 Overall record: 109-84 How did I get here?: Thursday Night Football almost did what I thought it would *(go UNDER the total of 53)* and may have held up, had the Raiders and Chargers NOT gone to Overtime. They did, and the total of 10 points in the OT session sent the […]
