I ate the chalk yesterday with Jorge Navarro’s XY Jet, who won the Sunshine Millions Sprint by a pole. The Navarro rumors (see the vegetable juice video ?) aside, they still pay you when the chalk wins. In some cases, you just gotta eat the chalk and pocket the cash.

Haven’t had much action this week, and I need to update the Lecompte and Smarty Jones recaps as we follow the Derby Trail.

In the meantime NFL Conference Championship games today. “Don’t Bet Against the Pats!” is a refrain among my crew. So I won’t. Did play the under (46.5, which I got mid week) with all the Brady injury shenanigans. I can see the Pats paper cut the Jags to death with a run based offense, and no confidence in Bortles to sustain drives. A match made in heaven for the Belichick D. Only way the pats go down is with bad turnovers, or Hoyer having to take over.

No strong opinon on the NFC game. Probably a slight situational lean to the Eagles, playing as a home dog who feels disrespected, and Minnesota is coming off such a huge high from last week, there can’t help but to be a bit of a let down. But, the Vikes have extra motivation with the SuperBowl at home, so a hard situation to judge on their side.
