Week Two Matchups
by Reggie Truitt
posted on September 15, 2005 5:05 pm

It's early in the season, but this league seems to be full tilt already. RRT CASINOS will not be writing on every game, every week. Also, write ups may not be as long as before because of time constraints. The CASINO is experiencing financial problems due to Hurricane Katrina. The usual steady money from nickel and quarter slots has all but disappeared from our budget since most of our clientel is spending their welfare/social security/ or child support checks on rising gasoline and drug prices. We appreciate your support and gambling business. Remember: Gambling Anonymous is for Pussies!

GAME 1: Turd Fergusson vs. Teabaggers

A game against two teams that suffered losses last week will turn into a thriller. This battle between some freaky S&M owners will come down to the whip,,,I mean wire. Turd Fergusson is looking better this week with Kerry Collins at home against KC. But it won't be enough. We don't like the fact that C. Portis is playing at Dallas, and D. Davis is rushing against a usually stingy Pittsburgh Defense. The Teabaggers will be to much as M. Bulger lighting up Arizona (NYG did last week), and Ahmad Green rushing in Cleveland.

Yahoo Projection: Turd-105 Teabaggers-97
RRT CASINOS LINE: Tyrannical Teabaggers -5

GAME 2: Oinkpigs vs. Oral Master

We started off with a couple of losing teams, lets get settled in on two undefeated teams. Both teams are bringing in solid starting lineups for this battle. The Oinkpigs have to be excited about most of their early season matchups. C.Johnson @ Min., I.Bruce @ Ari., L.Tomlinson @ Den, and B. Westbrook vs. SF. Also, Stover will redeem himself this week kicking @ Ten. However, the BJMaster has some very favorable matchups as well. D. McNabb vs. SF, Jimmy Smith @ Ind, W.Parker @ Hou., and the Baltimore D home against the Titans. Expect big points from this tandum of teams on the second week of the season.

Yahoo Projection: Pigs-114 Oral Master-102
RRT CASINOS LINE: Oinkpigs -6

*New this year, league members can actually place bets against the CASINO.

For those of you who have not placed bets on football or any other sport before. The team that has a negative number next to their name is favored by that many points in our book. You can bet either way against that line. For example, if Boyd thinks his Banger9.5 team will win by more than 8 points than he should place his bet for over. If he thinks he may lose or win with less than 8 points differential than he should bet for under the line.

The commish is considering starting a CASINO page on the site if enough people are interested.

The CASINO will take $1 dollar bets on all games, and a parlay will be available. If you want to parlay any 4 games together at $4, than the casino will pay back $12 for a win on all 4 games.
