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!!!!
