March Madness Report: Fun Friday!

Cinderella found her shoe. A big name coach set a dubious record. Torn tickets littered the Sportsbooks' floors and busted brackets swept the office pools. A fun Friday of pure Madness on St. Patty's Day!

Watch: If you want a game with posterized dunks, wild swings, bomb-away threes, falling down shots, and a last-second finish, take in TCU-Arizona State. Live chat cashed on a live bet on the game too!

Recap: Only the 2nd 16-seed to ever win a 1st round game, as little Fairleigh Dickinson took down mighty Purdue, with the Boilermakers head coach now setting a new record: losing to a 13, 15 and 16 seed in the tourney, and doing it in back-to-back-to-back tourneys! Friday favorites went 10-6 against the line, and 13-3 straight up, as the public took a beating like an overdue debtor from Tony with the bat. Sportsbooks cleaned up, as the public's favorite dogs -- VCU, Drake, and Kent St. lost against the # -- and the public's favorite favorites (Memphis & Gonzaga) failed to cover or lost outright. Through the 1st round, 25 higher seeds prevailed, and 23 Vegas favorites won outright. Including the First Four, favorites are 20-16 against the number, with 11 dogs winning outright, a little low by historic metrics, but close to the norm. A 10, 11, 13, 15 and 16 seed all still made it to the 2nd round, as did two 9 seeds.

Preview: At least 2 low seeds will make the Sweet-16, as they play each other in the 2nd round. Public betting heaviest on Auburn, Princeton & Duke. Sharp $ on Furman & under in the Duke-Tennessee matchup. By historic metrics for seeds and Vegas lines, the spreads in the Houston & Kansas games are very low, while the rest are in accord with the norm. Friday's 8 games features 6 games with 1 or 2 seeds (or their upset replacement). While Penn State could give a double-digit seed a Sweet 16 birth with a win, the Princeton-Missouri matchup guarantees a 7 seed or lower will make the Sweet 16. The rest of the Cinderellas wait for Sunday.

Crick's Picks: NFL - Week 8

Well it wasn't the ENCORE we were looking for, after our MONSTER CARD in Week 6, but we did manage to book another WINNER in the NFL last weekend!! Even losing our first 5-Unit of the season(Thanks Denver... BUMS I Say!!), it wasn't enough to put us in red when the smoke cleared!! We've slowly been GRINDING our way out of this MASSIVE HOLE I put us in to start the season, but IT'S A MARATHON... NOT A SPRINT My Friends!! What is it they used to say?? Ya know, in the book they read to us as kids... Ah yes that's it!! SLOW & STEADY WINS THE RACE!! We're gonna STAY ON OUR GRIND this weekend, and see if we can put a few more shekels back in the ol' piggy bank!! It's NATIONAL TIGHT END WEEK BABY!! Since no one else will say it.... Y'all leave me NO CHOICE!! WHAT COULD GO WRONG?!?! You & Your Beautiful Families STAY SAFE Out There!!! Good Luck, Good Gamblin, & Go Bucs!!!!
