    It has been a fun ride, but it is about over. The no hitter game was the backbreaker.

In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible.

    What's going on in here, oh I see, it's an Eagles party. I hate to rain on everyone's parade, but Philly still has the Cowboys on their schedule one more time this season. That's right, and this time it's in my house, on December 24th, and I plan on giving them one heck of a stocking stuffer. See you in Big D on Christmas Eve!

    Easy Answer: Philly is the team that, in August, was predicted to win about 9 or 10 games this year. So, I bet "the over 9.5 wins" -- and I'm gonna get back $900 for my $500 bet. I'd say that "the experts" screwed-up on that projection.

    If you see my NFL futures under my Swami thread I also had Philly over 8.5 for $100. That’s because of the schedule. They’ll be tested in December. Let’s see how they hold up.

    Well, frankly, I couldn't care less. I'll have a winning bet (Over 9.5 wins) before December gets here. Late in the season, I'll probably make a "playoff bet" -- on Philly? on Buffalo? on Baltimore? I'll bet using a portion of my regular-season profit.
