Default Beat "The Prick" Contest Week 10 Sponsored by CRIS.....ENTER HERE

A message from "The Prick"

"Hello fellow losers I am The Prick. I have been picking games on different radio shows and publications for years.

The way this works is I'm going to kick your ass every week because I pick winners. If you ever get lucky and beat me then the good ole mafia guys at BetCRIS will slip you a C note. I think they picked me because they know they won’t have to fork over much cash.

Pick college or NFL games I don't really care but don’t be an ass and throw in a total because only straight up side bets count.

I will pick 3 games and designate one pick as my "best pick". Then you pick 3 and also designate one selection as your best pick.

BetCRIS has some other rules to throw up so check back and read the fine print.

My picks will go up every Tuesday. You can post your losers on Wednesday.

Good Luck (you'll need it)

Love,

The Prick

Well, boys, i thought we were all getting along just fine. A little chest-beating, whining, and gloating is to be expected, on account of the fact that you sharps are trying to get in my pocket, and I gotta beat a group of ya to get a little cheese from CRIS....and that's ok. But one of you fairies crossed the line, and now it's personal. If i knew which one of you rat-bastards told my ol' lady about my Neteller account, and how I stash a little bread in there now and again on Mondays......I expect the "account adjustment agents" over at CRIS wouldn't mind helping me shake my loot outta yer hide. No school girl strippers, or Irish whiskey, or even any decent glaucoma medicine for da Prick this week, but Peg Bundy on my couch with the bon-bons got a nice chunk of ice around her neck......down to business, squares, with SBR still hosting this deal, and CRIS still paying all you Wayne Root wanna-be's......
Colorado -2.5 The Buffs lock up the sorry-ass Big 12 North and win the right to get slapped around by the 'Horns. Seriously, is that any way to motivate a team to win on the road? The 'Clones still suck, and they've hosed me twice this year, but not this time, I'm gold....(anybody catch the end of that Northwestern game last week?) Anybody tells ya they'd rather be good than lucky, they're a damn fool.
Chiefs +2 Are the Bills at this point in time 2 points better than anybody??? It sure ain't the Chiefs. Hell, I'd take +2 on my pink fuzzy slipper and zebra-striped robe wearing ball-and-chain against the Bills. No wonder these books are getting killed! This is money in the bank. (BEST BET)
Redskins -1 Kinda sad, really, how pathetic the 'Bucs have become. Maybe Gruden can get his little brother to QB this week? Final score is probably 5-2, but that's good enough to send me home with a little change in my pocket.....somebody remind me to re-negotiate my pay arrangements with CRIS, that woman don't need any more jewelry. And, boys, when da Prick hits 3-0 this week you can all thank that weasel who ratted me out.

I don't normally post my plays this early in the week, but there's not many plays this week for me to choose from.

Week 10 Prickbusters

NCAA

Oregon -4 (Best Bet)
Wisconsin -3

NFL

Seattle -6.5

Kansas City is a big play for me this week, I actually have them on the ML. Naturally, that Prick took the Chiefs as his best bet. That's probably the only play of his that will win. Jacksonville -7 and South Florida -8 just missed the cut this week. Good luck to all!

Interesting how you caught that South Florida game. A spread of 8 is a bit much. If it were below 7, I would have given it a shot. Syracuse is horrible.
