NFL Betting Season Starts with Winless Steelers

Pittsburgh Steelers Betting
First of all, sorry for not posting here in quite a while. But for the avid sports betting fan, what has there been. Baseball? Sorry, I can get some decent sleeping pills from my doctor. US Open Golf? Tiger Woods is great and all, but my eyes get blurry trying to find that little white ball in the air. US Open Tennis? I love watching the girls, but I wouldn't know a good bet from a bad one when it comes to the tennis court.

And then there's football. NFL football.

As everyone knows, the season's set to kick off on September 7th, with Miami set to takes on the Steelers. Hard to believe, but last year's Super Bowl champions are winless in all of their preseason outings so far. However, they are at least 2-3 ATS, so there's hope yet.

Keep an eye on running back Willie Parker in this matchup. The previously undrafted rookie has just put the pen to a $13.6 million, four-year contract that runs through the 2009 season. Hopefully his outstanding Super Bowl performance will carry over into the regular season.

I haven't seen the NFL odds on this game yet, but unless the spread is horrendous, I'm probably going with Pittsburgh. Preseason bah ... once these guys take to the field in a game that actually means something, they'll shine (Miami's impressive 29-9 victory against St. Louis yesterday nothwithstanding).
