If you want to be, press one. If you want not to be, press 2
Republicans are red, democrats are blue, neither of them, gives a flip about you.

Well you went 2-1 so not bad for having no clue how to do it!

But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

Yes, they do. Thanks Viking.
Next week, I'm going to make my picks, then flip-flop every one of 'em...

Too bad future generations aren't here to see all the great things we are spending their $$ on!!

Ouch...0-3, although that looks a lot more like my usual picks. Early season this year was just luck!

I would expect most everyone will converge towards .500 as time goes on, that is the nature of this. A random selection should get you 50/50 win/loss.
The one difference is the opening spreads seem to be larger and that could give someone an edge if they use it correctly.
I found this site, it shows charts of how the spread changes with public betting. And lots of other info.

I think the Cowboys won so I should be 1-2 for week three, right?

No it was Dallas -5.5 which means that they were favored by 5 1/2 points. So they had to win by 6 in order for you to win. Anything 5 or less and Washington covered and who ever picked them got the win. And Dallas only won by 2. Sorry.
