It’s an all-underdog weekend here from Uncle Max, and I’m not just saying that because I’m delirious from worrying about getting ready to set up holiday displays at work. It’s because my big underdog picks came through last weekend!
That’s right—my general distaste for Notre Dame paid off handsomely, with NIU winning and me winning BIG. Then this past Sunday I bucked tradition and picked the New England Patriots, who not only beat the spread but won outright!
Not that anyone is asking, but I always think that you should split up your winnings 40-40-20: 40% goes to your “general fund” (groceries, bills, rent, etc.), 40% goes towards your regular gambling fund, and 20% should go towards a nice little splurge on a luxury item or experience. So this weekend I’ll be using my precious few hours off to plan out my next vacation—hello, Atlantic City!
TRUCK SERIES (5 wins) off
Saturday XFINITY SERIES (4 wins) MISSION 200: PARKER RETZLAFF—this MISSION will be no LAFFing matter (sorry).
