SUPER BOWL SUNDAY

Sadly, the end of football season is upon us as Super Sunday has finally arrived. The gridiron has not been as kind to Mr. Thursday Night as in years past but he feels strongly about today's play. HC&P will stay up and running through the spring months as the NHL cranks up in its' strech run to the playoffs. Mr. Thursday Night is currently on a National Hockey League hot streak that reminds many around these parts of the run Slapshot Bob went on last winter. HC&P is currently in negotiations to bring Slapshot Bob out of his early retirement which was a result of a perceived lack of respect from his colleagues at this site. Good luck to everyone today!

Capitals -1.5 (+200)

Canadians (-150) and Lightning (-150) to win 2 teamer

Green Bay -3 (even)

THE TOUGH LOSSES CAN’T CONTINUE FOREVER

Last Thursday was a rough night for us. 2 missed free throws by Nored for Butler and then a dumb foul in the last 30 seconds. Result……a push. Then, on the last play of the game, a meaningless touchdown by the Colts. So, instead of a 4-1 night, we end up seeing a 2-2 night. The bad luck can’t continue forever.

So, on this day that the Big Ten screwed everything up, LDDD is going to get everything right. I do have a feeling that the Big Ten looked at my life in order to get their division names. I am quickly becoming the leader on HC&P and it’s only a matter of time before the leadership makes me a legend.

NFL


Ravens/Texans under 46 – Ravens know that the Texans only way to win is to air things out so they are going to punish them on the ground. This means the clock is going to run and run. This will be close but take the under.

NBA


Grizzlies -3 ½ vs. Trail Blazers – Blazers are sliding, Grizzlies getting better and better. Winning games at home and playing teams tough on the road. This is a very under-rated team. Griz by 5-7.

Warriors/Jazz over 208 – Warriors are consistently giving up 100 points every game. Jazz play ok defense. This one won’t be a no brainer but should be in the 215 range when it’s all said and done.


Bulls -8 vs. Pacers – Pacers have been good at home but been getting blown out on the road. The same will happen tonight. D Rose continues his rise to fame with 30+ tonight.

Bucks +7 ½ @ Mavs – The Mavs win streak is in jeopardy tonight. The Bucks record doesn’t show it, but they are a solid team and their youth will give the Mavs fits tonight. This one comes down to the final possession.

LDDD

It hasn’t been good lately for LDDD but not good for LDDD still equals WINNERS! Tonight I am very confident in a few games:

NBA

Celtics -5 ½ @ Philly – ride one of the hottest teams in the NBA until they tell us different

Mavs/Nets over 188 – Nets have lost 5 in a row and doing it due to lack of defense. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Mavs get to 120.

NFL

Colts -4 @ Titans – this one is going to be a laugher. Colts bounce back, Peyton bounces back, Titans continue their downward spiral.

NCAA

Butler +2 @ Xavier – Xavier struggled with Iowa, Iowa is one of the worst teams in the country. This one will be fairly close but Butler will pull it out with late free throws.

Temple +2 vs. Georgetown – 5 in a row on the road for Temple. They have already showed they can hang and beat some solid teams on the road. They are going to come out firing with a hostile crowd and hold off a tough Georgetown team in the end.
