Week Three Matchups
by Reggie Truitt
posted on September 22, 2005 11:05 pm

Here we go boys and girls. Don't let your wifes, girlfriends, or significant others see you open the ol' wallet to make some bets. I know for some of you like Thurman that means opening the Man Purse. Or, as in Boyd's case, the Fanny Pack. Either way place some bets-it's only a $1.00.

After some consideration--we decided that teasers won't be available. However, to tickle your fancy we will offer a 3 game and 4 game Parlay Special this week. Land a 4 game and cash in $16.00. Or a 3 game Parlay and cash in $12.00.


GAME 1: Mud Whistles vs. Banger 9.5

These two purse slinging GM's match up for our first game this week. The CASINO especially likes this matchup because a 2-0 team, and an 0-2 team are so close in the matchup. The Whistles are hoping Farve turns it around this week, even though they are undefeated with him playing poorly. They also hope M. Bennett fills in nicely as the 2nd running back this week. Banger has to turn it around soon. There are to many good players on this team for it to continue to struggle. What interest us the most is the philosophy of playing both Holmes and Johnson in the same backfield. We can't wait to see how this plays out.

Yahoo Projection: Mud Whistles-96 Banger9,5-100
RRT CASINO LINE: Banger -6.5


GAME 2: My Brain Hurts vs. Oral Master

This game features the two biggest scoring teams of the week, and you can almost count on that. Expect the points because the matchups are very favorable, except both teams have Running Backs that are questionable. For the Brain Pain you will see Manning against the Browns. Boldin against Seattle, T. Glenn at San Fran. And the biggest of all; that renewed TB defense against the laughable Packers (I know you like that Parker.) The BJ KING likes the fact the D.McNabb is home against Oakland. Harrison and Vanderjagt against Cleveland. And Cinci D against the Bears Offense (I know you don't agree with that Parker.) But, the RB's will be where this game is won or lost.

Yahoo Projection: Brain Hurts-101 Oral Master-107
RRT CASINO: My Brain Hurts -3
