Football: Happy and Sad

I lost my wager this week on football. My season totals are 10 wins, 10 losses, and 1 tie against the spread. I have won 1 and lost none against the money line. That's the sad news. Well kind of happy too. I am ahead by a paltry sum for the season. I'll bet lots of folks who wager on football games wish they could say that.

The really happy news is that my beloved Iowa Hawkeye football team has reached the number 25 spot in the football polls. Just number 25? Give me a break. It's better than nothing.
