Friday Five for Pain-free-cinos

FRIDAY FIVE LAST WEEK: 2-3 ATS 

FRIDAY FIVE SEASON TO DATE: 25-16 ATS 

A special thanks goes out to my TSZ cohort whose well-wishing e-mails and commentary - coupled with a little help from the American pharmaceutical industry - had analgesic effects so powerful they enabled me to sit up long enough to cut and past instructions for this week's Friday Five. 

*I've also included a summary of this week's Thursday Three at the bottom of the page for those of you who are already on our mailing list.

Pop Quiz: What do you do with things that no longer have inherent value or interest? Simple - you bet on them.

The Spread Zone wants long-term, satisfied readers rather than one-time, resentful shoppers. In this spirit - and in hopes of shaking the Karma Curse - Marco and I are opening our questionably valuable Friday Five back up to the public. Are we posting it here? No way - that's too easy. Let's make this a little more interesting...

FRIDAY FIVE FOR FREE-PACINOS


Step 1: Become a follower and/or just send us an e-mail tovinnyandmarco@gmail.com saying, "Hey guys. I really love your blog. You two are amazing. I've never felt so connected to and entertained by another almost complete stranger in my life...," or you can just say, "What's up guys. I'd like to see what this Friday Five is all about." That's it. No investment on your part. Just an e-mail. Now here's the wager.

Step 2: If we go 3-2 ATS this week, we'll call it a push. We have your e-mail and will continue to send you our Friday Five for the rest of the season. Yes, all three weeks. And the playoffs, where it will probably become more like a Weekend One. If, however, we go 4-1 ATS then - relying of course on the highly honorable code of universal gamblers - you come back to The Spread Zone, hit the donate button, and buy us a cup of coffee on Tuesday. If, and there's a great chance this is going to happen this weekend, we nail 5-0 ATS, then said coffee becomes a Trente Quadruple Vanilla Soy Mocha with Sprinkles.

If you don't pay up, however, then you must pledge your undying loyalty to TSZ and Spread the word about The Zone to everyone you know.

Now doesn't that sound way more exciting than just buying us coffee? And in only two steps. You can't beat that. To summarize - send us an e-mail and we'll send you picks. What happens after that, of course, is entirely up to you.

What's at stake for us? Good question. Only our highly suspect reputation - that's what.

Take a chance and become a part of the fastest growing community of supportive, loving, degenerate gamblers on the Internet.

You won't be disappointed.

Week 15 Thursday Three Summary

Sadly, the last round of painkillers are wearing off just as the sun is sinking beneath the fir trees that line the northern Californian horizon. Although I usually include Fanalysis for each game that makes the cut, this week a rankings and a simple thank you will have to suffice so I can resume my comfortable, horizontal position once again. This week's Thursday Three are:

#3 Detroit Lions (-6.5) over ARIZONA CARDINALS

#2 Seattle Seahawks (-4.5) over Buffalo Bills

#1 Green Bay Packers (-3.5) over CHICAGO BEARS

Contributors to this weeks Thursday Three: Laura Z., Texas Todd, Australian John, Mysterio, Noah G., Arty Z., and Francis. Hope I didn't leave anyone out. 

Good night and good luck,

Vinny and Marco
