The week before the Super Bowl.  We have one thing to be thankful for – Brett Favre is not in it!  I can actually watch sportsmedia to get information for me online sportsbook account without having to filter through hours and hours of Brett Favre ass-kissing. 

Anyways, sports betting online takes dedication.  Ever try betting every nba game for a week just to see how you do?  Well you should – it’s fun. 

SUNDAY, 1/31 at 11:30 am CST: Red Wings @ Penguins (on NBC)

  • Stormin Norman (7-5) Penguins over Wings: I don’t really know anything about hockey, but I know that I will always pick the team with the best young player in the league over a team that has no knees, ankles, or backs (i.e. Detroit).
  • South Side Sheik (7-5) Penguins over Wings: I’m busy watching cartoons instead of the NHL on Sunday mornings, so I haven’t seen the Penguins all season. Regardless, I think they win because at least they are not from Detroit.
  • StevieY19 (7-5) Penguins over Wings: This was tough because I really want to take the Red Wings here. If the game were in Detroit I would give the edge to the Wings, who are slowly getting players back from injury. With Kronwall finally coming back this week and perhaps Holmstrom by the weekend the Wings have a shot, but won’t have it all together enough to take down Pittsburgh.
  • Javier Sandooski (5-7) Red Wings over Penguins: One thing was for certain – Stormin Norman’s “analysis” of his pick would start with “I don’t know shit about hockey”.  Well I was right.  I don’t even know if half the writers of NQTC even know if this is a finals rematch.  Wings are starting their second-half play and should look to get into form against Pittsburgh to exact some revenge.

SUNDAY, 1/31 at 2:30 pm CST: Lakers @ Celtics (on ABC)

  • Stormin Norman (7-5) Lakers over Celtics: Neither team is exactly killing it right now, but they are the two best teams in the league regardless. I know this one is at the Garden, but I have trouble seeing an ailing Garnett being able to overcome the Lakers. Kobe rises to these occasions and he will do so again.
  • South Side Sheik (7-5) Lakers over Celtics: The Celtics have been getting killed by opposing guards with or without KG playing significant minutes. Kobe gets his, and if Boston’s bigs shift to stop him, L.A.’s bigs will clean up on the glass.
  • StevieY19 (7-5) Lakers over Celtics: I really have no clue what’s going on in the NBA, but I’ll go out on a limb and say this game will be boring for three and a half quarters and Kobe will win it from the foul line at the end.
  • Javier Sandooski (5-7) Lakers over Celtics: Kobe. MFing. Bryant.  He’s good.
