Cousin Sal’s Gambling Blog: Week 9
Hey degenerates — remember me? I’m the guy who last week told you to bet the Ravens over 28.5 points and to wager on the Philip Rivers interception machine to keep rolling. Unfortunately — those were my only winners. A net of -15,000 jermajesties last week takes my year to date total to -48,500 jermajesties […]

Cousin Sal’s Gambling Blog: Week 8
Did you ever wonder what the dude who played The Greatest American Hero dresses up as for Halloween? Me neither. Let’s talk pigskin. Moammar Gadhafi and I had bad weeks. He lost his pulse and I lost 19,500 jermajesties (for you first time readers – Jermajesty is the REAL first name given to his son […]

Cousin Sal’s Gambling Blog: Week 7
We’re back in the black baby! Last week I hit on a monster proposition bet — a 30/1 long shot paid out when the Bears were the highest scoring team in Week 6. 30/1! Seriously — what other bloggers are giving out 30/1 winners? Arianna Huffington? Perez Hilton? I’m guessing hardly ever. I also hit […]

Cousin Sal’s Gambling Blog: Week 6
Last week was a rough one for me in the NFL proposition-betting world. You people aren’t really taking my advice are you? OK, good. My Week 5 losses clocked in at -38,500 jermajesties, taking my year-to-date total to a whopping -46,000 jermajesties overall. But really — what’s a few wasted jermajesties amongst friends anyway?

Cousin Sal’s Gambling Blog: Week 5
The NFL’s Week 5 is already upon us. It’s all happening too fast. Am I the only one who’s starting to get depressed about football ending? To make things worse — this week the NFL schedule makers have declared war on degenerate gamblers. Miami, Cleveland and St. Louis (a combined 2-10) — quite possibly my […]

Cousin Sal’s Gambling Blog: Week 4
Egad! Not a great prop bet slate for me last Sunday. I ended up losing 75,000 jermajesties on the day taking the year long total to -17,500 jermajesties overall. Let’s keep in mind I have unlimited jermajesties (they come real cheap) at my disposal so no matter what I’m ending up in the black. Let’s […]

Cousin Sal’s Gambling Blog: Week 3
Hola, gambling junkies! I’m back and proud to point out that if you took my proposition picks last week, you would’ve done very, very well. The way I had it set up, you should’ve netted 57,500 fake dollars, or as I like to call them “jermajesties.” My big win was the Buffalo Bills over 23.5 […]

Cousin Sal’s Gambling Blog: Week 2
Welcome degenerate gamblers. I knew you’d come back. Last week I offered up a gaggle of season-long props, and miraculously they’ve all survived Week 1. Now it’s time to start keeping track. And just so we don’t end up sharing prison cell bunk beds with Manny Ramirez, let’s change the term “dollars” to something ridiculous […]

Cousin Sal’s Gambling Blog: Week 1
When I was first approached by my friend Bill “The Sports Guy” Simmons to write a gambling blog for Grantland I was tickled pink. I mean c’mon — that voice of his is hilarious. In all honesty I was excited about the opportunity but felt that before I took the gig I owed it to […]
