December's first 'dogs


Five underdog teams won their games outright in pro football today, three at home and two on the road. The endings of some of those games were remarkable.

Three of our players scored points with two of the winning 'dogs. Three more of our pickers are still in the hunt tomorrow night with New England for 3. The rest were skunked. It's the second week in a row that the top three of our players all took L's.

Here are the standings as of the end of Sunday's action. The asterisks show who's riding on tomorrow night:

I hope everyone's getting as much entertainment out of this as I have been. And $440 awaits the winners' chosen charities, which will be a good thing. But that's still eight weeks off, including five weeks with full slates of games. The Super Bowl isn't until February 13.
