7-4 last week, which brings my total to 47-42-1. Spreadsheet went 9-6-1, bringing it to 102-81-9 for the year. To put that in real $ terms, if I were to put $100 on each bet, with a 10% vig (the book I use is around 5-7%), I'd be up about $1290 by just using the spreadsheet, and $80 relying on a mix of the spreadsheet any my own stat-browsing/guesstimations. Too bad I screwed up and mathed so poorly at the beginning of the year.

That said, my preseason futures bets look good. I missed on my Bills projections, and looks like I'll miss on the Raiders and Broncos, but looks like I nailed the Cowboys, Seahawks, Jets, and Ravens. Titans could go either way at this point but I'm guessing it ends up a push. That said, the Ravens to win the division pays 3 to 1, which will essentially wipe out 3 of those losses, and if Seattle can hold on to their division lead it also pays 3 to 1, so I'd end up pocketing about $160 in winnings (all were $20 bets). Worst case Ontario, I'm probably still looking at an $80 profit or so.

This week I have:

GB -13
BUF +6
DEN +9.5
SF +2.5
NYJ -5
NE -3
TEN -3
LAR -1
CLE -7.5
PIT -2.5
