American Football & Soccer Betting : Week 17

I'm thinking about calling this off.

The season was profitable to begin with but it has turned into nothing but a joke ever since. Once I place this week's bet, I'll be in the red and that was not what I had anticipated back in September.

I did vow to let it run until the Super Bowl but this is the final week in the regular season and the amount of games available to bet on will be shortened.

I'll spend the next of two weeks considering whether it would be wise to continue until the beginning of February. Remember, once we get past the wild card weekend and divisional games, we won't have many games to pick.

As this is the final week of the regular season, I thought I'd have one last stab at doing ten selections. I'm already in the red - what harm does it make to not try and save myself on the final day of normal games?

In the meantime, look at the miserable Week 16:

1) PSV vs Feyenoord OVER 2 goals
2) Volendam vs Heracles OVER 2 goals
3) West Bromwich Albion vs Manchester City OVER 2 goals
4) Kansas City +3.5
5) Detroit +7
6) Tampa Bay -3
7) Tennessee +2
8) Buffalo +6.5
9) Green Bay @ Chicago OVER 40.5 points total

We're now on a season of 69-74-3.

Week 16 stats:
Stake = £15.33
Returns = £1.88
Profit/Loss = -13.45

Overall stats:
Stake = £306.97
Returns = £312.33
Profit/Loss = +5.36

This week's selections are:

1) Chelsea
2) West Bromwich Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur OVER 2 goals
3) Blackburn Rovers vs Manchester City OVER 2 goals
4) New Orleans +2.5
5) St. Louis @ Atlanta UNDER 44.5 points total
6) San Francisco -3
7) Dallas @ Philadelphia OVER 42.5 points total
8) Arizona -7
9) Miami (Straight up win)
10) Denver +8
