I doubt very many people remember these sorts of predictions, and they make for diverting reading<br /><br />What I don't like are columns that make predictions against the spread, or columns like the one the News runs with each member of the staff picking against the morning line. I'm no prude-- I'll play a horse from time to time, and engage in other low-level gambling for recreation occasionally, but playing into the organized gambling on NFL games is creepy, and I'm surprised the News does it.Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16100176174975448724noreply@blogger.com
