This will have to be another quick one, as sleep is at a premium these days. According to Yahoo’s NFL Odds page, only 5dimes.com has a spread AND an over/under with half-points. I’m going to take both, as I’m 5-5 and want an opportunity to be 2 over .500. I used the reverse jinx to [...]

As always, it was a busy week. As you may know a visitor took had me off to explore Bellagio where I had a chance to take a look at their awesome Chinese New Year dragons. Feeling inspired by that I headed to Venetian and caught a look at their giant, fire breathing dragon. Certainly, [...]

While watching the Divisional round of playoff games, I posted a fleeting thought on my Facebook Wall that I just can’t stop contemplating: Rob Gronkowski and Jimmy Graham should be the first and second picks in your Fantasy Football drafts next year. Now that you’ve stopped laughing, hear me out. If the goal of the [...]

Revel Atlantic City

It was a crazy week with CES in las Vegas. While I didn’t go to the convention this year I met some old friends and new friends during the week. While navigating the traffic into the Venetian I remembered my trick to avoiding CES traffic. Of course I remembered too late, but it reminded me [...]

Of course, ever since Baby MJP was born, sleep has been at a premium, so this’ll be quick. I found these odds on yahoo, from betonline.com. I like the Saints on the road at -3.5. I don’t know the history of this line, but it feels like one that was originally larger and has shrunk [...]

Fireworks fill the Las Vegas sky New Years 2006 Small

What a way to start the new year with a busy week that just passed. I took my first trip to Laughlin, NV (if you follow twitter or tumblr you’ve seen some pics) and looking back I loved it. This week also brought the announcement that there’s a new JMP in this world! Now CES [...]

When I last wrote in this space, my family consisted of three queens, a king and one card left to be dealt. I’m happy to report that I got a second king on the draw for a real world ‘full house’. Baby MJP (and yes, his name is simply the reverse of mine) was born [...]

Another week in Vegas where I realize I still don’t know where I’m going. I got lost multiple times this week. I’ve always been directionally challenged and this is not a city easy to navigate for someone used to being given street directions (i.e. 2 blocks this way, 1 right, etc.) Some day I’ll figure [...]

Venetian Sportsbook Small

It already seems as if the year is already over. Things are slowing down everywhere except in retail outlets (you may have noticed me passing out Cyber Monday deals from Amazon all week). While things here wind down I’ll be taking some time to do a little reshuffling of the ECG family of sites. With [...]

Welcome to the fourth installment of ‘JMPower Rankings’, in which most writers would try and tie this into the holidays, by saying what teams should be thankful for or what each team needs for Christmas. As you’ve probably discovered by now, I’m not ‘most writers’. 1. Green Bay Packers (1): Still undefeated and this is the [...]
