NFL 2017 Week 15 Recap

Another week of NFL, another week of Sports Information Network winning prognostications, and to be honest, it’s really starting to get boring. I’m serious, let me explain. I’m what’s known in the industry as a “recreational gambler”, meaning that my betting habits are so pedestrian I’m literally 50% meatball every time I place a wager. I’m the kind of guy that online sportsbooks dream about – I chase the “highs” of the activity, not the almighty dollar.

My betting patterns are basically the polar opposite of SIN experts who sell picks while also making good, steady money making identical wagers themselves. The problem is that I don’t like good, steady money – I like a lot of money very quickly on one bet and then celebrating that win for 3 days. It’s just who I am. It’s the Dick Knotts style of gambling. And I certainly don’t recommend that anyone tries it at home. I’m basically a thinner, cleaner Artie Lang, who tells funnier jokes.

So how is your boy D-Knot rolling for NFL 2017? Like a busted sack of garbage, that’s how. First of all, my girlfriend took over my main accounts in the beginning of November after the Boyz in the Network had their amazing run and got everyone paid big time. I of course blew the winnings on meals, bottles, and parties, but since I’m the absolute worst at managing gambling units I also laid down some stupid large bets on a few big parlays. Shockingly, I lost.

Anyway, due to my mid-season meltdown there’s a new system in place. My girlfriend gets the picks on Sunday morning from A.G., she goes in and places all the wagers, I’m then informed of what the actual bets were, I watch football all day and drink beer, and then on Tuesday I’m told how much “we” are withdrawing from the sportsbook. Most people would love this – I basically have an invisible ATM machine that gives me money every week…and it totally sucks. It’s all money and no action…and if there’s no action, I ain’t having any fun.

So I guess it’s a damn good thing that I’ve got my crypto account to play with and keep me busy – because if I’m not losing money on the Buffalo Bills at home in a 6 team parlay, you’d better damn well believe that I’m losing my money somewhere. Hello, Bitcoin Cash!! Come kick me right in the BCH.

Oh – and if you don’t understand the image at the top of this article you’ve obviously never seen Owning Mahowny starring the wonderful Philip Seymour Hoffman in one of his best roles. It’s based on the true story of Canadian bank manager Brian Molony who stole $10 million from his employers to fuel his casino addiction. Seymour Hoffman’s portrayal is both heartbreaking and boring – the absence of all emotion as he’s betting is downright creepy. He simply places continuous stakes without enjoying any of the wins or the action…trust me when I say that this is a very sad movie, but a must-watch film for anyone who likes to visit a casino.

This of course is how SIN members get down – no emotion, all business, win 60% of the time, collect cash, repeat…and it sounds absolutely terrible to me, but as I just explained, I’m far from a “professional”.

Here’s how the invisible ATM kept printing cash this week while delivering zero kicks. I mean, is it even considered “gambling” if steadily hitting a 60% win percentage? Probably not.

So that’s how “smart” people won last week. Lots of different action, spread out over advantage plays that were based on mathematics, placed using strict unit management. Philip Seymour Hoffman would be proud, but this method doesn’t do much for me. Where is the 5 team parlay built around the Bills at home?!?

Anyway, I think we’re done here guys – buy NFL betting picks from SIN and make gains…or don’t…I really don’t care anymore. We’ve proven that the system works and if you want to get in on it, great. If not, there’s nothing more I can tell you – our winning percentages speak for themselves. And for that reason, this will be my last NFL recap of the year – there’s just nothing more to say. I’ve explained the system and the results, and I even educated you on the beauty of breaking even and the greatness of Judas Priest. I think we’re finally come to the end of the road.

Thanks for reading.
