RANDOM DAVE THOUGHTS
Dave 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 […]

Dave Carney 12/21/2020 On Saturday the Badgers beat Minnesota 20-17 in OVERTIME to win the 2020 match up and secure Paul Bunyan’s Axe. The Wisconsin vs Minnesota game is the longest running (consecutive) FBS game, not missing one since 1906, and the history behind the Battle for Paul Bunyan’s Axe is equally as historic. In […]

Dave Carney 12/17/2020 Overall record: 108-83 How did I get here?: Record holds from yesterday because my Daily Play was tonight’s Thursday Night Football game (Raiders vs Chargers) UNDER 53.

Dave Carney 12/16/2020 Overall record: 108-83 How did I get here?: Stupidity. Hubris. Thinking I could be better at something than I really am.

Dave Carney 12/14/2020 Overall record: 108-81 How did I get here?: The Colts/Raiders did what we expected them to do and that was go OVER the total of 51 ½ points on Sunday. That they went SO far over that total was as little surprising, giving the Colts a 44-27 win, and securing a COVER […]

Dave Carney 12/14/2020 With the NBA preseason tipping off this past weekend, we thought it would be a good time to take a look back….at Giannis’s debut with the Bucks as a teenager! Nobody’s quite sure if the Bucks can hold on to Giannis in the long-term, but he sure has given us plenty of […]

Dave Carney 12/11/2020 Overall record: 107-80 How did I get here?: The Pats sucked that’s how. For the past two days I’d been touting how much I loved the Patriots PLUS five and a half points (+5.5) and the UNDER play. Sadly I took the Pats PLUS the points and got burned big time, Rams […]

Dave Carney 12/10/2020 Overall record: 107-79 (no change) How did I get here?: Still holding on to my record from yesterday due to making yesterday’s play, tonight’s Thursday Night Football game between the Patriots and Rams in Los Angeles. The good news for us, the line has moved another whole point since we took the […]

Dave Carney 12/9/2020 Overall record: 107-79 How did I get here?: Another solid cover for us as the Ravens did what we expected they would based upon the numbers, but, it really was a game that if Dallas actually did have designs to threaten to be a less than embarrassing team would have looked better […]
