Hilton Happenings (November 23)
They may feel foolish and tormented, but they also are blessed this Thanksgiving Week as they head into Turkey Day tightly clutching the drumstick as well as the lead in the prestigious Las Vegas Hilton SuperContest.
Foolish, Tormented and Blessed used a 4-1 showing to leapfrog over Devils LLC and into the contest lead with 38 1/2 points, a full game advantage over Feral Child, Maxmillion and the former pacesetters with 11 weeks of the 17-week NFL season gone.
Devils LLC was 2-3, Feral Child 4-1 and Maxmillion 3-2 as first place keeps changing hands and the race continues to tighten. Deadlocked in third with 36 1/2 points apiece were A.N.C. and the Blue Team.
The Hilton's record field of 505 contestants paid $1,500 per entry and pick five NFL games weekly against a pointspread that's posted late Tuesday afternnon. They get one point for a win and half-point for a push.
Dogs barked loudly in Week 11 as nine of 16 covered. Conversely, the Hilton consensus line was 7-9. Carolina, an overwhelming choice as the consensus best bet, lost straight up to the surprising Chicago Bears as top plays slipped to 6-5-1, including one week when there were two consensus best bets.
Peyton Manning, Edgerrin James, Tony Dungy and the rest of the Indianapolis crew, ran the Colts' record to 10-0, making them the NFL's only undefeated team this campaign. Many bet shops, including the Hilton, are accepting wagers on an undefeated Indy proposition.
Green Bay, a 4-point favorite versus Minnesota Monday night and another big consensus selection, lost outright to the Vikings.
