Football Picks

Last week was a successful one for TheBostonInsider. After looking foolish in my college picks all year, I finally banged out a winning week. My NFL picks are still hovering around the .500 mark but it's better to be so-so than be a complete loser (words to live by!). On a side note, I took the Phillies (+120) in the World Series. Looks good with the series tied 1-1 heading back to Philly for Games 3-5. All picks are against the spread and home team is in capitals. My local corner store was out of Herald's today so this is the source of my lines for the NCAA picks. The NFL lines are courtesy of ESPN.
