    nosuzieno, the books want you to take NYG because the public is on WAS; at least that's how they want you to think. The books are really setting it up so you'll take WAS beacause you think they want you to take NYG. So, WAS is the pick except that we know better than to take the team opposite than what the books are begging us to take. So NYG becomes the play because the books want you to take WAS because they know you'll want NYG but you'll be thinking then the play is WAS. So take WAS all the way because NYG is the sucker play and that's exactly what they want you thinking so I'm taking the NYG; No, wait, WAS sorry . . . or was it NYG? LOL.

    In all seriousness, my lean is WAS, but I'll be staying away from this one tonight, GL if you play it . . .

    Glad you got a laugh out of it PB, but a few minutes after I posted my WAS lean, imgv posted Jarhead's Hilton picks of which WAS is one, so, what the heck, I'm going to put a unit on WAS, just waiting to see if it climbs through to +3 . . .
    My girlfriend's a huge 'skins fan and it'd be just like them to pull off a win meaninglessly in the last week, just to tease their fans with hope for next year!

    As a bears fan married to a packer's backer (had to be true love!) I can relate. Will make tomorrow eve interesting.

    Watching espn this morning, I'm not even sure NYG wants to make playoffs as strange as that may seem. I know Shockey's out but that could be a blessing to Giants backers. Wonder if Tikki shows up big or just tries to retire w/o injury...I was going to revive the "why isn't anyone saying Giants best team in nfc?" thread from months past but you beat me to the humor punch. GL~
