Alright. It’s getting old now. How many times am I going to lose a bet because the team I bet on doesn’t cover the spread? I feel like after a strong start to The Napkin in the first two weeks, the ball just hasn’t been bouncing my way over the last three weeks.
I’m making the right choices. My analysis is pretty accurate. I just make the mistake of trusting a team to cover the spread, regardless if the teams are favorites or underdogs. I correctly picked three of the five games in last week’s edition of The Napkin, with only one of those three covering the spread.
Time to start the autopsy and find some lessons for next week’s edition. We’re going to continue and stay the course. Incremental improvements that will lead to long-term success. There’s still plenty of time in the season to get back to winning ways.
Here’s a recap of what my Week 5 picks looked like.
