Intro by Yank Happy New Year! It’s New Year, same us, here at One Last Line. Settle in for some firecracker picks as we’re feeling good about the trends we’re seeing in the NFL as the season winds down. The Recap We unwrapped a few presents last week on Christmas but also found some coalContinue reading “NFL Week 17 – 2022”

Intro by Sam Merry Christmas and a happy betting ticket to all! Christmas came early for your boys last week as we woke up to find Santa delivered in bulk. It had been a rough stretch the prior weeks, but we were bound to finally find ourselves on the nice list. Let’s take a lookContinue reading “NFL Week 16 – 2022”

Intro by Yank We’re dumb and bad at gambling. That’s been the motto of this blog since we began. Nothing proves it quite like the last few weeks. Our football takes have been prescient but we have negative dollars to show for it. As we definitively enter winter, the weather outside is frightful, and frankly,Continue reading “NFL Week 15 – 2022”

Intro by Yank When it rains it pours and over the last few weeks it has been coming down in buckets on your boys.

All of our picks were competitive but none of them came through. That theme unfortunately continued toContinue reading “NFL Week 12 – 2022”

Intro by Yank That one felt good folks! Ring the cash register!  We finally remembered that, as squares, our value prop for you guys is to find the squarest bets out there each week and then go against them. They won’t always all come through like they did last week, but we will keep searchingContinue reading “NFL Week 11 – 2022”

Intro by Sam It was a dark day last Sunday for the boys. All seemed lost. But after some time away, we realized that we had lost our way. We strayed from the strategies. Almost all of our money was on favorites, and as you should know from reading this blog, this was an unacceptableContinue reading “NFL Week 10 – 2022”

Intro by Yank The boys are cleaning up our act as the season rolls along. The principles led us to some bright shiny Ws last week, and Sam was one terrible penalty call away from getting the brooms out for the biggest day game sweep in OLL history. The Recap Let’s start in The CollaborationContinue reading “NFL Week 9 – 2022”
