Disaster and the Jets Jets Jets

We had an absolutely terrible NFL Sunday.  We went 1-5 and lost over 6000.  Nothing went our way.  This is the exact reason we've been wagering the amounts we chose weeks ago - to prepare for the worst case scenario. Sunday was the worst case scenario.  We lost back nearly all that we had gained, but the most important thing is that we are alive and still have a chance.  We also still have more than we started, with 22151 right now.  If we had been betting larger we could have been wiped out.  We fell to 15th, and considering how brutal the day was I reckon things could be much worse.  Mr. Pig and I talked today and discussed next week's action; we didn't dwell on yesterday because we had to move on since there's extra work to do now.

The Saints win last night salvaged the day somewhat and brought us to 2-6 for the day.  Tonight we love the Jets.  LOVE the Jets.  They're at home getting 9 points against an unbeaten Houston team.  The Jets have been getting slammed in the media all week and Houston is everyone's darling.  Houston has had 2 high-scoring wins in a row, have won 4 in a row overall, played very well last week, and the Jets played very poorly last week - getting shutout at home by the 49ers, so the Jets are the obvious pick to contrarian bettors such as ourselves.  If we win this big bet we will have only lost about 3000ish for the week and that's not really bad at all.  If we lose we'll basically be back at the starting amount.

Just as I predicted before the weekend - we have a new leader. It's not us though. Yet.
