05.29.09 WEEKEND PICKS: STICK ‘EM UP
Every Friday we pick the winners of the weekend’s hottest matchups, using a proprietary blend of cursory knowledge and straight up randomness. Home team in ALL CAPS.
TONIGHT
PHILLIES (-1.5) over Nationals. How will the Nationals blow it tonight? My money’s on “scoreboard falls into the Nats’ bullpen.”
Lakers (+5.5) over NUGGETS. This series won’t make it to seven games. Not that it matters. What’s one game in a two-month playoff format?
D’BACKS (+1.5) over Braves. Atlanta’s pitching has been gone for some time, but Chipper Jones is getting old, Francoeur is struggling, and there aren’t enough pieces for this team to contend anytime soon.
Saturday Soccer Parlay
SM Caen (+375) over BORDEAUX, MONACO (+650) over Paris Saint-Germain.
SATURDAY.
MAGIC over Cleveland. Magic in six. Stan van Jeremy gets his team into the finals.
Penguins over RED WINGS. Pittsburgh in seven. Based on absolutely nothing.

WEEKEND PICKS: STICK ‘EM UP
Weekend Picks should just be renamed, “Bet against the Nationals”.
Damn! Look at all those marginal titties!
Nats hit too many HR’s to bet on. Randy 160 to win 100 is my lock of the weekend. Of course I’ll barely remember this weekend but maybe I win straight cash. We’ll see nucka.
if magic win saturday its magic in 6
@Enrico: that’s also the code name for my bank account.
