MVP Sportsbook 2.5: Taco Day or Columbus Day?

Happy National Taco Day, or at least I think it was yesterday (according to Shane). All of the boys were at least 50% in college football last weekend. Ev got screwed on his mortal lock because the Saints decided that they’d rather a less than 100% Derek Carr (who is mid), than Jameis Winston (mid, but in a 400 yards, 4 interceptions way). Dumb move.

Tommy Bett hits his inaugural pick and is bringing it back to Ann Arbor again with his selection of Michigan/Minnesota o46.5 points. Let’s see if it happens. He joined around the 9 minute mark, for those wondering, also around the time Reagan stops by.

NOTABLES:

• Boys get excited for the long weekend
• Kevin joins, cooks, and then devours burrito, calls UMASS “coward program”
• Steve Aoki guaranteed to bring points to Red River Shootout
• GM joins, shows us his McDonald’s, leaves because he didn’t see Dad do his pick
• Reagan joins, gives her selections, fiddles with balloons
• Tommy Bett new stats guy? Gives hard-hitting stats for UCLA game
• We had a two-parter this week. Certainly didn’t put anything interesting at the 24 minute mark… nothing at all.
• I learned about iMovie (see above), thanks Kevin
• Ev said he would put out if Marquette Basketball won the national title… certainly not the last time he’s gonna say something this egregious
• Still don’t know what we call it, but we got one of them
• Ralph guest appearance (6:38), doesn’t give mortal lock
• Bickering about stats again
• Shane fades Giants, beginning of the end for them?
• I’m adding stats into the blog! Might as well, right?
• Shane, looks good with faux mustache, also looks like Johnny Drama

Side Quests!

We all love side quests, and it’s such an easy phrase to say. I didn’t count the Jameis side quests from last week; stupid that he didn’t start. They didn’t really hit last week, but that’s certainly been par for the course.

• Munch- Kentucky +14.5, Titans -1 & u42.5 (2-leg parlay), Dolphins -34.5 (maybe irrational to say), NY Liberty to win WNBA Finals (starts on Sunday, if you don’t take it you hate women)
• Jon- Toledo -19, Louisiana Tech ML, Zach Wilson 300+ passing yards &3TDs (2-leg parlay)
• Ev- Nick Saban o0.5 aggravated assault against his own players, Jets TT o20.5, Tyler Kolek (Point Guard for Marquette, another love interest of Everett) o0.5 season awards
• Shane- Danny Dimes 40+ rushing yards

Honestly, I think we all have more confidence in the side quests. Also, I added the stats for the earthquake tsunamis and for mortals, figured that we probably should. Here are the plays:
