Sorry about that last entry; my finger hit the wrong key.

The Skins were listed at 10-1 to win the NFC East and 18-1 to win the NFC Championship and 35-1 to win the Super Bowl at the Imperial Palace Sports Book - which is where I was for the day in Vegas.

No, I did not lay any money at those prices. Were I to plunk down some bread, I'd probably take the Skins to win it all. I can't realistically see them doing any of these three things this year, but if they get hot and make it to the first level, I'd want to have them at the huge odds to go all the way.

The over/under for Skins wins was 9.5. That seems high to me but I let it alone. I made a few other plays on over/under for team wins because they seemed attractive.

You are correct in your assumption that I bet with my head and not my heart.
