It's mid August

[Illusion]

...and I am still not in football mode. Anybody else putting off foots capping until the last minute?

[Richkas]

I havent either. 2 more weeks.

The end of the titans/raiders game yesterday finally kicked me into it. Felt like a regular season game.

What's to cap now? All teams play their starters only 10 minutes. Next weekend is where you cap when they play at least one half.

I've been in football mode since the all-star break.

I dont do preseason, i already love a few plays for week 1.

Illusion, slow down, let the season come to you. Its too early to do any serious handicapping unless you are in to futures. I am in to futures so that is all I am handicapping right now. Nothing for the regular season yet.

[fiveteamer]

how do you pick games months in advance?

K.I.S.S.

[Willie Bee]

I don't get into football mode until the last out of the World Series, and then it's just for about a week until college hoops gets cranking.

Interesting to see the different strategies of guys with regard to football research. I think the poster who commented on waiting till things play out was probably right on, the first couple weeks sometimes you just need to let things unfold before you tackle too many games.

Still involved heavily into baseball, bet a few pre season games for action though.

[fiveteamer]

I make my football picks Sunday morning.

How much shit do you need to look at?

Those NFL Network guys look at and break down video 18 hours a day and I wouldn't trust them with any of my money.

Brian Baldinger is the best. I think he jerks off to NFL game tapes.

[sickler]

I don't get into football mode until it's too cold to be outside without a jacket on.
