    King, I can never tell if you are being sarcastic

    Which is a compliment, by the way.

    But is it really appropriate to use the words "undefeated" and "winless" when there has been only one game played?

    Truth is, no one never knows anything about the NFL any year. This year is no different. That's why it's impressive for bettors here in Las Vegas going about 60% for the year, which is as good as it gets. And think about it: If you bet money, and you go 60%, that means that you have actually come out ahead and made money betting on football, assuming that you bet the same amount on all games. Not many people can say that.

    Those coins are starting to look pretty good.

    —Herr Proctor
