» NFL picks
By China at 8:24 PM
The summer around here can be so dull. While most of us have no time to play because our classes are moving so fast, we really do need to find time to put ourselves in to the picture while the weather is nice. I am not one of those people though that will choose a bike ride or a hike when the weather is nice. I am more of a computer person. When the weather turns great I take out my laptop and hit a park or a nice field somewhere.
This past week was unbearably hot though so I decided to try something else. I went to a new coffee shop and began to catch up with all of my friends who had left for the summer or for graduation. Most pf them emailed me back the same day and we got back on the same page fairly quickly. The next day we all decided we would stick to all of our normal rituals, as inspired by the ongoing saga of the NBA playoffs. Every year we all follow each major sport very closely and bet on the games with each other, We never wager very much but it is more just for fun and something to bond over. Right now since the NBA finals are almost done we have decided to skip them and move on to the next one.
I have already begun my NFL picks for the season. We all bet on the teams that will make it in to the playoffs and bet on which teams will win each week. Each of our football picks is worth about a dollar, which does add up, and at the end of each week we even out. I know that some may think, like my girlfriend, that we should be long past this since every one of us is over twenty-one and should have better things to do with our time. Unfortunately for the downers in the crowd none of us care about what is expected of us. We just want to have fun doing what we have found makes us happy and brings us together.
