Betting the Prop
Well I've decided to take the proposition wager that a team will score within the first six minutes with the odds at -110. So I laid 220 units to win 200 units. Why the hell not? Usually I do not wager on such silly things but I figure I 'd give it a shot. Also, I laid another 500 units on the Steelers at 6 1/2, raising my total unit play for this game to 1500. I will not be playing any games tomorrow because Mrs. Chill has me doing a whole slew of chores. So until Sunday, best of luck to all of you, especially those who chose the Cardinals. Don't say I didn't warn you. Remember, he who plays with the Chuck is he who will be donning cashmere slippers. Peace.
Who knew?
Well, the Chucky Chill did not come up victorious last night as the PAC 10 continues to be a thorn in his side. With the loss of 550 units, the total now stands at 4,170 units. I failed to realize that the mascots in last night's matchup was identical to the UConn/Villanova matchup last week, which the mascot indicator correctly predicted. Why I chose to ignore this is beyond me and alas, I will suffer the consequences. This, however, does not detract from the fact that I will reach my ultimate goal of a million units and I will climb right back on the horse with a selection from the NBA tonight. I like New Jersey, getting 7 1/2 points, to cover the number against the Hawks. Jersey is 3-0 straight up and 2-1 ATS in their previous matchup with Atlanta this year. Not wanting to buck a trend, I will take the Nets for 300 units. Remember bet with the Chucky and maybe you will be able to payoff that subprime mortgage.

Adding another 500 units to the Steelers
This just in....the line on this game just dropped to 6 1/2 so I appropriately staked another 500 units on the men of steel. Honestly, I just cannot see this game being close. The last time a team as weak as the Cardinals went to the Superbowl was when the dirty birds of Atlanta promptly got dismantled by the Broncos. Oh by the way, Chucky Chill collected large sums of green on that propostion as well. What I really want to know is who in God's name is betting on the Cards? Who are these people? Really?
Another reason why the Steeers will cover this number
In case you are new to this blog, one of my newest and most effective systems that I have been implementing is the ever popular Mascot Indicator. Implementing the mascot indicator to this Superbowl matchup, you have the Steeler vs. the Cardinal. Let us break this down. The Steelers mascot is Steely McBeam, a rugged looking steel worker often seen hoisting a steel beam on his shoulder. This imposing looking fellow embodies the culture of the Steeler's franchise, rough and tough players who do not partake in any tomfoolery whatsoever. With his two day old stubble and striking resemblance to Bill Cowher; this is a dude you probably wouldn't tamper with. At the same time, Steely is someone you could guzzle a couple of nice cold beers with; Rolling Rock or Yuengiling would be his beverage of choice, not that pacific northwest ale that many fancy men are fond of. The Arizona Cardinal's mascot is Big Red, an over sized rendition of the North American Cardinal. The North American Cardinal is a mid sized songbird with the male exhibiting a body of brilliant crimson red with a black face mask over the eyes, extending to the upper chest. Make no mistake, it is a strikingly beautiful bird, if you are into such things. I don't know about you but a songbird trying to inflict damage on an ornery steelworker seems rather comical to me. To Arizona's defense, understanding the non intimidating nature of the Cardinal, they have attempted to portray the bird as a rather fierce species. The logo that graces the helmets of the Arizona players is a bird with a scowl of sorts, looking rather peeved. As much as the Cardinal organization tries to depict an animal that is noble and stern, it is nothing more than an imitation of an eagle, a red eagle at that. It fails to invoke fear or respect. Rather, it invokes images of frailty and fanciness, much like Arizona's perceived team image of being a finesse team. I could go on ad nauseam, but I will spare you the rest of this silly diatribe. You get the point, Steely would strike this silly songbird and make it go poof; much like the poor bird that got obliterated by Randy Johnson's fastball. The mascot indicator is seldom wrong and it overwhelmingly points to one side, the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Don't look now
Don't call it a comeback, because I was never gone to begin with. The Chucky Chill hit again last night with the Knicks covering the number against the Atlanta Hawks. With another 500 units being added to the pot, my total now stands at 4,720 units. After a quick rundown of tonight's action, there are no compelling plays that stand out. However, after further inspection, I did manage to find one play worthy of the Chuck's action. I will try my hand again to master th PAC 10, which has been a bane to the old Chuckster. Channeling in on tonight's PAC 10 matchup between Arizona and Washington, I like the Huskies to cover the number on the road. Currently, UW is laying 1 1/2 points to Arizona. My thinking is rather simplistic, but make no mistake, it is correct. UW is a better team, playing better ball, and will win this game on the road. Arizona has been inconsistent all season and nothing leads me to believe that they will rise to the occassion against a solid Washington sqaud. Washington is 6-1 in PAC 10 play with their only loss being an overtime heart breaker to California. They manhandled UCLA and Stanford, both of which bootstomped Arizona. As such, I will take the Huskies to cover this number for another cool 500 units. After much tinkering with my college hoops system, the Chucky Chill is ready to unload on his book and will take great joy in sending him to the unemployment line. If you have been one of the unfortunate casualties of these mass layoffs, come see the Chucky. He will liberate you from your poverty and put riches into your bank account. Count on it.

The Chuck to pick the Steelers to cover the number
As you know by now, one of the prevailing factors that I look at when deciding to pick a side on a wager is to see where the public sentiment lies. No offense, but the majority of the time the public is composed of dim witted fools. Having realized the general stupidity of the masses, I have been alarmingly correct by using this contrarian technique. Up to now the public sentiment is surprisingly favoring the Cardinals by a %60 to %40 margin. The early money was heavily favored towards the Cards, so much so that Vegas moved the line to 6 1/2 for a brief period. As soon as the number hit 6 1/2, there was serious action moving in on the Steelers. It is my contention that this was sharp bettors pouncing on the lower number. This alone has me favoring the Steelers in this matchup.
Usually, I do not try to break down the teams into components and match them up against each other because I find this to be an utter waste of time. Again, I will pass on this arcane method of prognosticating. However, I would be remiss if I did not point out some key matchups. Kurt Warner vs. the Steelers Defense is an intriguing matchup indeed. In his last three playoff games, Warner has been nothing short of scintillating. Against a mediocre Atlanta defense he had a passer rating of 94.7, throwing two touhdowns and only one interception. Against a solid Carolina defense, he had a passer rating of 93.2, again throwing for two TDs and only one pick. His last game against an over rated Philadelphia Defense he torched the Eagles with a passer rating of 145.7, throwing for 4 TDs and no picks. The problem is he will be facing a defense in the Steelers that is far superior to the competition he has seen. The Steelers defense will apply far more pressure and will be far more disruptive than any other defenses the Cardinals have faced.
I realize that Larry Fitzgerald is a monster and that Anquan Boldin is the same. However, what people fail to realize is the pressure that Pittsburgh brings, time and time again. I see Harrison and Woodley harassing Warner, giving him little time to make effective passes. Warner will be rushed and inevitably he will make a mistake.
Arizona's vaunted offense has had their struggles this year scoring only 7 points against New England, 14 points against Minnesota, 20 points against Philly and 17 points against Washington. In each of these games, all losses, the Arizona ground game was non-existent, totaling less than 50 net yards on the ground in each of these games. In each of their playoff wins the Cardinals ran the ball effectively, but I do not see them running the ball on this Steelers Defense. Without an effective running attack, I think it is too much to ask from Warner to win this game by himself.
Moreover, the Pittsburgh Steelers are on a roll, covering 8 out their last 9 games. Throw in the fact that the Steelers are more than comfortable with the Superbowl setting and Arizona being newbies, I'll take the Steelers laying the 7. I made an initial 500 unit play and depending on where the line moves and any further developing situations, I will look to augment my position. There you have it, another winner for the Chucky Chill. As a side note, I have hit my last seven superbowls. So for those who want to bet against me, do so at your own peril. I might also dabble in some props, although I generally do not dabble in such gimmicks. However, I might entertain some props if I find them engaging enough.

Who is better than me?
No one, that's who. Looks like the Chucky Chill is in full stride with his College Hoops picks as his pick from yesterday, Texas over Baylor, netted him yet another 500 units. With his winnings, the Chuck's total stands at 4,220 units. Just a friendly reminder, The Chucky Chill will release his Superbowl pick later today. Looking towards tonight's hoops action, I will concentrate on the association. More specifically, I will look toward the New York/Atlanta matchup to bestow upon you tonight's superlock. I like the Knicks to cover the number in tonight's game, especially with them covering the number in their last five games. I like the way D'Antoni has his squad playing and I am not yet sold on the Hawks. Moreover, Atlanta is in a mini slump losing their last two and I feel confident that the Knicks will cover the two points that they are laying. There are other factors that I will not disclose to the public, but trust me on this one. I will be right and you too should lay a handsome amount on this game. I, for one, will be laying another 500 units in order to add to my ever increasing total. If you are mired in a losing streak where you cannot make any sense of the action before you. I have some advice for you: Listen to the Chucky Chill, for he will be bathing in obscene amounts of money while smoking only the finest Cuban cigars and drinking only the smoothest of scotches. You, on the other hand, will be in a general malaise for you failed to heed the advice of the greatest handicapper ever to live. Hey, it's your choice.

I did it again
Yes indeed, the Chucky Chill did it again by booking his play last night for another 500 units. Seems like his basketball prognostication skills are back and it would behoove you to start listening to him. The Oklahoma Sooners covered the number and augmented the Chucky Chill's total unit count to 3,720. I know you are wondering if the Chucky Chill will be able to keep his current winning ways rolling. In short, the answer is a resounding yes. This is because of my inordinately large brain and an inherent instinct for picking winners, which most of you lack.
So who has Chucky Chill ordained as today's sure fire winner? Well staying in the Big 12 conference, the Chucky Chill has zoned in on the Texas/Baylor matchup tonight. The Chuck doesn't put too much emphasis on trends but there are time when a trend is so overwhelmingly apparent that the Chuck must play the trend. Texas is getting a point and a half against Baylor. Texas has gone 11 years and 22 meetings without losing to the in-state rival Bears, a streak they'll look to extend Tuesday night in Waco. For some reason, I do not think the streak will end tonight and the Chuck will lay another 500 units, hoping to add to his ever growing total.
As a side note, I will have my Super Bowl play in very soon. Trust me, you want to be with me on this game as the Chucky Chill is never wrong on the big game. Slowly but surely, I am getting a better grasp as to who will cover this game. Just remember, if you have been losing and can;t seem to be getting a grasp of this gambling thing, don't call some joker and his 900 number. Just tune in to what the Chuck is doing and your fortunes will change for sure. Plus, I feel pity upon you fools and have generously offerred my picks to you for free. Sit back and enjoy the coin you are collecting. Peace.

Superbowl
Okay, I've finally had a chance to sit down and ponder the issue of who will be victorious in the Superbowl. Much to my dismay, I have yet to come up with a definitive play. On one hand you have the upstart Cardinals with their nitro driven offense and their opportunistic defense. The Cardinals have Larry Fitzgerald and Anqun Boldin forming the most formidable wideout tandem in the NFL. The Cards also have Kurt Warner who has revived his career in the desert and looks better than ever. The Steelers have their vaunted Defense with the Defensive player of the year, James Harrison. They have Big Ben, Hines Ward and fast Willie Parker. They have an insane fan base who travels well to any road game with their terrible towels. All of this leads the Chuck into a big quandary. Who to pick? Well it is my assertion that the Steelers will probably win the game. They have this inherent mental toughness and their intestinal fortitude will in all likelihood prevail at the end. But that is not the issue. The issue is whether they can cover the seven points they are laying. Well, in order to answer that question the Chuck needs to break down the game a bit more and consult his sources from both teams. I am leaning towards taking the wager of a team scoring within the first six minutes of the game. The line on that was posted at 115 units to win 100 units. I will have an answer for you shortly but in the meantime follow the Chucky to riches with his ever improving basketball prognostication skills.
Ready to take over the world
Ah yes, the Chucky Chill is rejuvenated after a weekend of nothing but sleep and relaxation. I did not feel compelled to endanger my bankroll by playing the bevy of games this weekend. I was much too busy running errands and other household chores that needed my immediate attention. To update the masses, the mascot indicator was fruitful again, posting another win with the Warriors covering the number against the Cleveland Cavaliers. If you recall, the line was set at Cleveland (-6 1/2) and if not for a last second three point shot by King Lebron, the Warriors would have won outright. With the proceeds of another successful wager, the Chucky Chill's total stands at 3,220 units. Not bad, after the treacherous start we had in our quest to the million unit goal.
Looking at tonight's action we have honed in one particular game that is worthy of the Chucky Chill's attention. For tonight's selection, I have focused in on the instate battle between Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, with the line set at Oklahoma -3 1/2. I have to tell you, watching this Blake Griffin kid playing ball is a real treat and he is someone who is capable of elevating the play of everyone around him. He is a cold beast and I do not see the jokey Cowboys from Oklahma State stopping him or the Sooners. The Sooners are hot winning their last seven and covering four out of their last five. Look for the Sooners to extend that trend and cover the number easily in this instate battle. I hate to go with the public but the number posted by the books is erroneous and you should be pounding the Sooners in this game. I, for one, will be looking to take the Sonners laying the paltry 3 1/2 for another 500 units. Remember, when in doubt, go with the Chucky Chill because he is a prodigy.

PAC 10 Woes
Alas, the Mascot indicator suffered its first loss as the Washington State Cougars covered the number and my modest winning streak is no longer. On the bright side, I booked the over in the Purdue/Minnesota game and was net 60 units up last night, bringing my total to 2,720 units. I thought the game was in hand as the Bruins stormed to a 13 point first half lead and then inexplicably squandered their large lead to hold on to win the game by 2. The late Pete Axthelm once said, "I can't stand to to look at a team that hasn't beaten the spread and thinks it's won." My thoughts exactly Pete, my thoughts exactly. After careful inspection of UCLA's mascot, it dawned on me that the Bruin was in fact a cub, a baby bear. In retrospect, I should have taken this into consideration, as a cougar would maul a baby cub and should have taken Washington State to cover the number. I will certainly put more time into my mascot indicator analysis the next time I put it into use.
In fact, I will utilize the indicator in tonight's matchup with the Golden State Warriors against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Warrior is defined as a man engaged or experienced in the art of warfare. A cavalier is a gentleman trained in arms and horsemanship. Well we have a conundrum in that both are trained in arms but the cavalier is trained in horsemanship as well. From this initial analysis, we might be inclined to give the edge to the cavalier. However, the cavalier is defined as a gentleman, with the operative word being gentle. Have you seen the cavalier mascot? For those who have not, I assure you he is quite gay with his gay plumed hat and even gayer cape wielding his gay sword. For my money I would feel much more comfortorable taking the warrior in a one-on-one battle. Moreover, if you spot me 6 1/2 points to boot, well you get the picture. I will take the Warriors to cover this number for a cool 500 units. Until next time always remember, I am better than you.

Mascot Indicator
As you know, my mascot indicator is 2-0 and through some further research and deep analysis, I have come up with yet another play. Tonight's PAC 10 matchup between UCLA and Washington State offers yet another prime game to test this nascent system out. As you are well aware, UCLA's mascot is a bruin, another name for a brown bear. The brown bear is a formidable animal that can weigh up to as much as 1,500 pounds. It has sharp claws and exhibits tremendous strength. Washington State's mascot is a cougar, a wild cat who is sleek and agile. Thy typically weigh only about 100-130 pounds, far lighter than your Bruin. The cougar is an ambush predator and it has been reported that a cougar is able to take down a large moose. But a brown bear is not a moose, not by any means. In fact, the only thing that hunts brown bears are bigger bears. Aside from speed and wit, the cougar is inferior to the brown bear and if the two came to blows, well, you know the outcome. As such, Chucky Chill will gladly take the Bruins to cover the 5 points tonight for another 400 units. This one is good as gold, book it.
Two in a row
With the Villanova Wildcats covering the number last night against the Huskies of UConn, the Chucky Chill entered into unchartered territory, booking two consecutive wins. With his 500 unit winnings on last night's play, the Chuck's grand total now stands at 2,660 units. Hoping to keep the momentum going, I have singled out another sure fire winner after consulting my various sources and my superior intellect. There are not too many games that the Chucky Chill feels he can lay the lumber with confidence, however, there is one game that does intrigue him. In the Purdue/Minnesota matchup I will take the over the total, set at 130, for a nifty 500 units. Other than that, I will occupy myself by watching last night's episode of Lost on my DVR.
As to the Super Bowl, I have been digesting all the factors I feel relevant to picking a winner and I am close to picking a side. I am still waiting for this line to move one way or another and am keeping close tabs as to the money coming in on both sides. If for some reason another game piques my interest, I will be sure to let you lemmings know. But for now, sit tight and watch me weave some handicapping magic. Let there be no doubt, I will reach my goal of a million units before all is said and done. My advice to you is not to step in front of the freight train driven by the Chucky Chill.

Back in Black
Yessir, the Chucky Chill is back in black with his win with Creigthon, who demolished Evansville just as I promised. With the 500 unit winning the Chucky's grand total is at 2,160 units, showing a profit for the first time in his unprecedented quest for handicapping glory. Let this be a lesson to all of you who doubt my prognostication acumen. I am rather adept at analyzing data and information, so I suggest you start listening to the Chuck. The Chuck has several reliable sources around the country that he relies on to give him the edge he needs to consistently win.
I know you are salivating at the mouth to see which game I have ordained as tonight's winner. After meticulously analyzing all of the games, I have chosen the Villanova Wildcats to cover the number (+9 1/2) against the UConn Huskies. Why, you ask? Again, referring back to the mascot rule, the Chuck feels that the Husky would not destroy a wild cat in a one on one duel. Granted a wild rabid husky might kill a wildcat but in my humble opinion, it would be a close battle. Accordingly, we will take the Wildcats to cover the number for another 500 units. Remember boys and girls, if you want to spend money with impunity, followy the Chucky Chill.

Back on Track
I finally won one last night as the Pittsburgh Panthers thoroughly decimated and exposed the Syracuse team for what they are, a fraud, thrashing them by 18 points. With his 500 unit winnings, the Chucky Chill is back up to 1,660 units. I know the journey has not been as smooth as I would like but at the end of at all, I will stand victorious. There are a bevy of games tonight and I have whittled it down to one sure fire winner. After conferring with my team of knowledgeable sources, I have decided to take Creighton to cover the (-1 1/2 points) against Evansville for another 500 units. Yes sir, you can book it for the Chuck has spoken and he will make believers out of each and every one of you doubters. I am currently working hard to come up with a side on the Super Bowl and will be posting my opinions shortly. I am quite busy today, doing important things may of you could not fathom, so I wish to leave this bit of wisdom before I depart: "A Journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step" - Lao Tzu. Although I have many winners to go we have, in my humble opinion, tuned the corner and are on our way to unimaginable wealth.

Back on the road to recovery
The Chuck readily admits that basketball, NBA or NCAA, is not his best sport. However, do not let this detract you from listening to his sage advice. After talking to some of my trusted sources I have honed in on a play tonight. The Chuck will be looking to play the Pittsburgh Panthers to cover the 9 1/2 points against the Orangemen of Syracuse in tonight's Big East Battle. The Panthers are 3-0 ATS in their last three meetings against Syracuse and I've heard that the Orangemen players were out late reveling and their focus will not be on the game at hand. As such, I will lay 500 units on the Panthers to cover the number. Furthermore, the Chuck thinks that the 'Cuse's mascot is a joke and will be kissing the floor that the Panther's walk on. For all of you who go against the Chuck, just remember that if you continue to doubt my overall superiority, you too will be kissing the floor that the Chuck walks on. For those who do take the Pitt Panther's tonight, you may thank me tomorrow.
The Chucky Chill will be back
Chucky is a bit despondent this morning after splitting his two NFL plays and going 0-2 in the NBA going down 600 units in the process and leaving his total units at 1160 units. Joe Joe Flacco did crack and I owe all the Steeler backers a heart felt apology. But deep inside, they know the ChuckyChill should have swept the NFL games. Deep inside, all those who yearn to see greatness like myself fail know that they are fortunate that the back door cover came in. Unlike all the sulkers who blame everyone and everything for their losses, the Chuck readily admits when he is wrong and offers no excuses. But for all of you who are snickering, the Chuck sees you and he does not forget. What you do not realize is that the Chuck is a very resilient fellow and, as such, he will rise to glory and reign over all the other meek handicappers out there.
On the bright side, I am elated that I do not have to hear another Philly fan telling me that how much of a moron I am for picking the Cards. It brings me great joy to see the cacaphony they spew finally cease. Aside from Philadelphia choking like they always do, this weekend was very uneventful as I was busy running errands. However, I did have time to fix my crystal ball and I will be victorious in the not so distant future. Remember, I am always better than you, even when I lose. I will post my picks which will reap instant beefits for those wise enough to heed my advice after I consult with my newly repaired crystal ball. Until then, sit tight and marvel at the man that is the Chucky Chill.

Another winner for you
After carefully consulting with my NBA fortune teller, I will be playing another game tonight. The Chucky Chill has decided in his infinite wisdom to take the San Antonio Spurs laying the 3 points against the Philadelphia 76ers. I realize the sixers are hot winning five in a row and the Spurs are coming off a dramatic win over the Lakers, possibly leading to a let down. But the Chucky Chill will nevertheless go with the Spurs for 200 units.
Besides, Charles Barkley who swindled me in an earlier dream came back to the ChuckyChill and apologized and assured me that the Sixers will cover. I already made that horrific mistake once and will not fall for it again, mind I tell you. We will disregard Barkley's advice and go with Timmy and the Spurs to cover this number easily. Roger Mason will score thirty plus and the Spurs will make me 200 units richer. As I bathe in all of my winnings all of you can stand and wonder in awe at how I am consistently right time after time. Do not fret, because lucky for you I have decided to document my picks on this blog so you can start winning like me. I will now retire and smoke a nice fat cuban Monte Cristo #2 while sipping on some vintage Mcallan 25 year scotch. The Monty 2 is a fantastic cigar and I highly reccomend you picking up a box after you win the Chucky Chill.
NBA tonight
Chucky won his play last night as the Chicago Bulls took care of the Cleveland Cavaliers. With his 200 unit winnings the Chuck is at 1760 units going into tonight. I have yet to fully dissect the action tonight but will do so accordingly to provide you winners aplenty. I have spotted one play that I am awfully fond of. After tinkering with my NBA crystal ball, I will be taking the over in the Wizards/Knicks matchup with the total being set at 207 for 300 units. For those of you who doubt my overall prowess, I suggest you bet against me and see if you don't end up in a Chinese sweat shop making Kewpie Dolls for a buck o five an hour. If you want to be smoking a fat Cohiba while sipping on some Johnny Walker Blue heed my advice.

Getting ready for Divisional Championships
As I was driving into work today, I was really tempted to call up my man to lay an obscene amount on the under in the Baltimore/Pittsburgh matchup this Sunday. Currently the total is set at 34 and as tempting as it was to bite on this number, I've decided to lay off for now. I feel comfortorable with my current 500 unit play on the Ravens at +6 1/2 and will be looking to augment my position if I find favorable lines out there. You might be asking why I am so confident that Baltimore covers this number. Well there are actually several reasons why I am picking the Ravens.
First and foremost, the Ravens Defense will not give up more than 14 points. Granted Ray Lewis is getting up there in years, however, I still rate getting hit by him as one of my top five least favorite things I have to do, right up there with bathing in lemon juice after running through a rose patch. Ray Lewis aside, this Baltimore Defense is much more than the Ravens Defense of the past where a lot was predicated on the play of Lewis. This Defense has the likes of Ed Reed, who is undisputably, without question, the best safety in the game today. More so than Lewis, Ed Reed has the capability of breaking open game on the defensive side of the ball. This Ravens Defense is such a disruptive force, I can't see the Steelers doing much of anything. Willie Parker may try to run up the middle up but he will most likely be met by Haloti Ngota and the rest of this imposing defense. Big Ben may be gritty and tough but when the likes of Terrell Suggs is chasing hm relentlessly, I cannot envision a good ending to his day. Mike Tyson once said, "Everybody got plans....until they get hit". This Ravens Defense will hard and they will hit often and they will hit with bad intentions leaving the Steelers Offense in disarray.
Secondly, Joe Flacco is one cool cat and has a cannon for an arm. Nothing phases this Kid and he does not get flustered under pressure. He makes smart decisions and has the uncanny ability to make a play when his team needs it the most. He always has team in a position to win the game and I see no reason for any deviation this time around. He will find a way to post at least 14 points against the Steelers Defense.
Last but most importantly, the reason why the Ravens will cover this number and probably win this game outright is because I have deemed it so. The Chuck rules the NFL and it would behoove you simpletons to follow his lead. I assure you that I am better than any computer system or useless research letter you are currently employing while on route to another losing season. Stop the madness, listen to the Chuck and sit back while the riches come pouring in.
I do like one NBA game tonight. Although it is my weakest sport I am currently working out the kinks on my crystal ball and I should be in full flight soon enough. Anyways, take the Chicago Bulls and the8 1/2 points against the Cavs tonight. I myself will lay 200 units on it. Until next time, always remember only a madman bets against Chucky Chill.

Cards to cover the number
After some thought and rudimentary analysis, I have decided to back the Arizona Cardinals in this weekend's NFC championship. After watching both teams intently for the last two weeks, it is undeniable that the Eagles are hot and seemingly a shoo-in to cover the number. I too almost fell for this trap until I saw the numbers coming in out of the offshore books. 76% of the public's money is on the Eagles side and the number is set at Philly -4. One of the central tenets the ChuckyChill adheres to is to bet against the public unless it seems as if the public is overwhelmingly correct. I cannot make that case here. Who is better McNabb or Warner? For my money, I take the guy with the hardware which is Warner. Granted, I think he is a farce for letting his wife intervene in his professional life to the extent that she does but hey, it's better than your mother doing it for you. Secondly, the receiving corp for the Cardinals is far superior to that of the Eagles, whose most dynamic receiver is a rookie. Also, the Arizona defense is on a roll, producing an inane amount of turnovers. Add the fact that Zona is at home, you get my drift....Zona covers this number.
Aside from all of this, the number one reason why you should take the Cards is because I am smarter than you. By you, I mean the masses and the public has spoken definitively on this matter. Because of the lower intelligence you possess, I will be placing my loot on the Cardinals and I suggest you do the same. ChuckyChill will take the Cards for a cool 500 units and the points. Remember, never bet against the CC unless you want to live in a homeless shelter in Haiti.

No need to worry
I know what you are thinking. Oh the ChuckyChill is a sham. He knows nothing. Let me stop you there. From time to time, ChuckyChill is off kilter. Such was the case last night, but do not fear because I will prevail over the long haul. I know this for one simple reason: Iam better than you. With his loss last night, Chucky is down to 1560 units. With that in mind, he is already hard at work coming up with a sure fire play that will pay off handsomely. I have to admit, this cold weather has the Chuck in a general malaise and his usually sharp prophetic abilities has been dulled somewhat. But I must warn you, it is still light years sharper than the nearest competitor out there. As a side note, I am utterly pissed at Sir Charles for leading me to th wrong watering hole.
Looking forward to the NFL matchups this weekend, I am leaning towards the Ravens and the Cards to cover respectively. Although I am undecided on the Arizona/Philly match up, I am firm on the Ravens to cover that number. In fact, I have already locked and loaded 500 units at Baltimore +6 1/2 and suggest you do the same. I will cover my analysis at a later post but all you need to know is the Chuck is saving his units to play this one in a large manner. Come back to see who I pick tonight. Until then, just sit back and ponder this question: How much of your winnings are you willing to donate to the Chucky? Peace.

The Journey Begins
Just so you know, Chucky Chill is here to set the record straight. I am somewhat of a phenomenon and to prove it to you, I am on a mission to turn a measly 200o units into a cool million. Don't think I can do it? Just sit back and watch the magic that is the Chuck and get a lesson on how to break your man in two.
Just to let you know, I am extraordinarily gifted in picking winners because I am one myself. I don't have an elaborate system but instead I use my enormous brain capacity to defy all odds and pick winner after winner. Don't waste your time or money with those clown handicappers who know absolutely nothing and pump their garbagio to you. Oh no, listen to the Chucky Chill and you will be sitting in the proverbial catbird seat.
Just to whet your appetite I have perused through the action tonight and have come up with a gem of a game for the Chuck to start his unprecedented climb to fame among the elite handicappers in the world. For this magnanimous pick, I have pored over complex equations, none of which you small minded people would understand, and annoint the Phoenix Suns (-7 1/2) to cover the number against the Hawks. Besides, the Suns are a shoo in because of their affiliation with another great Chuck (Charles Barkley) who visited me in my dream and told me to lay the lumber on the Suns. Don't thank me now, but thank me when you count your money when collecting your riches from your man. Chucky Chill feels so good about this one he is laying a cool 400 units on it to start his quest of on the right foot.
