   So as it turns out my forecast was correct, the   
   grand total was 17 points, and Denver would have   
   won it with Bo Nix at the helm.    
      
   I win the C-note I laid on it to keep it interesting,

   I'm at the roulette wheel, and even then a man needs   
   to know his limitations.
