Drop the phone! You don't need a crystal
ball. You don't need a gypsy fortuneteller. And you certainly don't
need to call any 900 number to win on Monday Night. All you need is
a decent amount of football knowledge and a little common sense. You
see, on Monday nights the spread doesn't matter. All you have to do
is pick the winner. It’s uncanny! Go look at the stats! Would you
believe me if I told you that over ten years, encompassing over 100
Monday night games, the winner has covered the spread to the tune of
90 percent? Believe it, its true.
So if the spread is nothing but a red
herring on Mondays, why haven't the bookies lost their collective
shirts? Simply put, the obvious choice doesn't always win. WHEN THE
DOG BITES ON MONDAY NIGHT, THEY ALSO COVER THE NUMBER. So here’s
what you do...
Pick your spots carefully on Mondays. Lay
off those match-ups that look too close to call. Look for powerhouse
teams vesus weaker foe. Search for live dogs who can win outright.
Follow your gut and ask yourself "Who will win this game?" If the
two teams are evenly matched, then pass, but for God sake forget the
point spread. Because for at least one night a week, each and every
year for as long as I can remember, it matters not one
bit. |
