The spread.
 
Got me again last night. Had the Chargers over the Broncos but I did not beat the spread. I do not recall ever having so many problems with my picks in various pools. I must not have set previous pools up with spreads. Certainly am having a painful awakening.

I lived in Denver for a year in 1983-1984 while getting my Masters in Librarianship and Information Management and at one point also working three jobs at the same time.

Never got to any Broncos' games though but did go to a U of Denver men's hockey game. They are often in the top 5 or so men's college hockey teams in the US.


I hope I get around to understanding the spread and soon.

And Congrats to the Los Angeles Chargers. Chase Daniel went to his second job after the Chargers’ overtime win - SBNation.com

The only people who will have some understanding of the spread are the bookies who take our money.

Strange season who would have thought both the Giants and Jets would be doing so well.

And the Green Bay Packers playing so lousy.

I usually just find an expert to help with the picks but they are not all that accurate this year.

NCAA Division I men's ice hockey tournament - Wikipedia

Spent a year at the U of Denver and five or so at the U of MN so have a lot of connections to college hockey, sort of anyway. I got a law degree and then took various foreign language classes at the U of MN.

The U of MN women hockey team does well too. NCAA women's ice hockey tournament - Wikipedia

I suppose the spread comes in here to when placing bets on teams in these tournaments.
