July 17th, 2009 Picks

(skip to picks)A perfect 0-4-0 today. Both Woods and two-time British Open defending champion Padraig Harrington were less than stellar yesterday. Then I went with low scoring summer league and Canadian football games. Not sure what I was thinking expecting people to play defense in the Summer league, but sometimes the players are just not that good offensively and you see some real low scores. Canadian football games tend to be high scoring, but I looked through their season and nearly two-thirds of the games have fewer than 54 points scored. My router has been going in and out, real spotty, so until it gets replaced later today I won't have much internet access. So, just the picks and they're just gut instinct for today. Good luck!
