They have to win by 6 1/2

So if they win by 6 is it a win, loss, or tie?

I am doing crappy. I think I am 1-4 if we are using the spread both weeks. Detroits' 2 TD's in the last 2 minutes really screwed me this week. But I have the same pick as VL tonight so no matter how bad I did the first 2 weeks, I am still only one down from him. I think CG is 4-1? Maybe? 2-1 last week and 2-0 so far this week. What is your record JMC?

Wait a minute I just realized that Houston was +3 I thought they were +6. I covered that. I am 2-3.

Godamit - how can you play when you don't even understand a point spread. Houston won by 3 points..If Houston was +6 you started the game with 6 points..Seeing that they won the game outright by 3 you won comfortably...by 9 points...UNDERSTAND? You'd win if it was plus anything, and you would even win if they were-1, -2, or -2 1/2..and -3 would be a tie...Do I have to back and check your picks vs the spread now? I was reluctant to participate because I didn't want to have to do that

Who wins with a tie?

Nobody..it's a tie or a push..If you bet on it you'd get your money back...

So really my finishing record is gonna look like this.

49-8-5
W- L-T

You lose...The Gambling public, by their wagers (money talks) have determined that the Saints are 6.5 points better than SF..You start the game -6.5 points...They gotta win by a touchdown and an extra point.. My opinion..THe Saints kill them by between 14 and 17 points..So i'm loading up on the Saints..They look unstopable..

You got 6 points with houston meaning they could have lost the game by 5 points and you'd still win..You get points on the crappy team and you gotta give points on the superior team..Making it a 50/50 propositon..

Saints 22-14
4th quarter

Looking good..Steady...Steady

OMG>>>>>>>>>>

My only hope was that they got the 2 points and NO went for a TD.

I thought this was a lock.
