    Thursday Night Football... XFL Style

    Yes, Thursday is the beginning of March Madness with 16 games! But at the end whether you're crying about your bracket or drinking and celebrating because you're surviving and looking good, at the end of the games, we got XFL football:

    Houston Roughnecks (-3) v. Seattle Sea Dragons @ 7:30p PT (ESPN)

    I usually bet near game time but I think the spread will increase so get in early. Roughnecks are the most complete team in XFL and already beaten Sea Dragons in the inaugural week 1 game w/ score 32-23. Second game is in Seattle but the results will be the same. XFL is basically the haves and have nots with Roughnecks (4-0), Defenders (4-0) and Battlehawks (3-1) are the haves and the three bottom teams are the have nots. Whereas Sea Dragons and Renegades are both 2-2 and this weekend will decide which side they will belong. Sea Dragons are one of the most disappointing team and will at least for now belong with the "have nots."

    Good luck Headster.

    A lot going on this week, and I'm always trying to catch up. Thanks for the look and reminder.

    Got it early at -3 but even -5 or even -7... take them! This is one most complete team in XFL on offense and defense. Seattle is a very disappointing team.

    Seattle draws first blood on a 3rd down TD.

    Houston usually very tough on 3rd down.

    Going for and missing the 3 point conversion could be huge. Seattle came to play. Houston with two punts. Only 55 total punt yards though. If you're going to punt, at least flip the field position.

    It's those little things a 4-0 team takes care of, usually.

    Weak ass holding penalty killed a great TD run for Houston. And then subsequent fumble sealed that drive. One thing is Seattle total collapse in the 2nd half is something to look forward to.

    You might be right...

    Seattle picked in the endzone, Houston driving.

    Houston playing stupid ball so far. Could be shit canned here if this continues. Still early though and only down by 6..

    Need a good halftime speech from the coaches!
