Chicago Cubs vs New York Mets

  Game 1 of the National League Championship Series between the Chicago Cubs vs the New York Mets. Chicago beat the St Louis Cardinals, the New York Mets beat The Los Angeles Dodgers. Pitching for The Chicago Cubs is LH Jon Lester who was 11-12 with a 3.34 ERA and 207 Strike Outs in the regular season. The New York Mets will have RH Matt Harvey 13-8 2.71 ERA and 188 strike outs in the regular season. 
  Game 1 and 2 will be played at Citi Field in New York City. Which means if the series goes to game 7 it will also be in New York City. Most people outside Chicago and New York City want to see The Cubs win. The betting public has more money on the Cubs for Game 1 at +108. The Mets are the favorite in this game. It will be a really good series.
  History - The Cubs want to get the curse of the Billy Goat off their backs. The Mets Hate playing second fiddle to The New York Yankees. The last time the Mets won the world series was in 1986, they also won in 1969. Last time the Mets went to the World Series was in 2000 and they got beat by The New York Yankees 4 games to 1. The Cubs Won two world series way back in 1907 and 1908. The last time they played in the world series was 1945.
 "Them Cubs, they ain't gonna win no more," said Billy Sianis after making him leave a World Series Game vs The Detroit Tigers in 1945 because they said his goat smelled. 

Fantasy Sports Las Vegas

   Nevada regulators ordered daily fantasy sports sites like DraftKings and FanDuel to shut down Thursday, saying the sites have flooded TV and Internet ads cannot operate in the state without a gambling license. People sign up to compete in games involving professional or college football, paying an entry fee that goes into a larger pool. They try to assemble teams that earn the most points based on real players stats. The top fantasy players who accumulate the most points win money. The sites are claiming the games are based on skill and not chance which is protected by the 2006 Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act allowing fantasy sports. 
   Comedian Keith Lyle said on twitter, "Good. Just take the damn ads off TV, every 3 seconds...". Comedian Tomer Benvenisti (The Fat Bastards of Comedy) said, "I'm eating, i'll call you Sunday."  That Must be a Really Big Meal. Today is Friday, it might take 3 days to do the dishes. - Mike Stigs

Look who's Talking Mets Dodgers

   All Sports Fans eyes will be on the Mets Dodgers game Monday, after Chase Utley of the Los Angeles Dodgers running to second base did a take out slide into Ruben Tejada. Tejada's leg was broken on the play. It was the biggest subject at my Parents house for Football Dinner Sunday. We all said it was done on purpose. Chase was aiming to hit Tejada who was at the time, 2 feet behind second base. He never slid in the direction of the base nor did he touch it. The umpire said he was safe at second. (WTF) Did he do it on purpose YES, Did he want to break his leg NO. MaryOchi (her name in my act) Well, She said, "he Slipped," my publicist Crista, "i'm saying accident, but Wow." via Text from Texas who was at the Texas vs Oklahoma game Saturday. Singer Songwriter Frank DiMino, " I think it was a good hard play. I think Tejada should of taken the out at second, then get out of the way. He tried to continue the play." Comedian Tomer Benvenisti (The Fat Bastards of Comedy) said, "i'm eating, i'll call you later." 
  The series is tied 1-1 and moves from Los Angeles to New York for games three and four. Tejada will miss the remainder of the playoffs and his career might be over. If this was Hockey the gloves would of dropped and the fight would not stop to someone hits the ice. Well that's the rule in the NHL. 
Pitching for The New York Mets is Matt Harvey 6' 4" 225 pounds who is 13-8 with an ERA of 2.71. We all know what would happen in the regular season but this is the playoffs, even Hockey fights are rare in the playoffs. - Just Don't Aim for the Head. 
   The Steelers will play the Chargers also on Monday Night. The Steelers without QB Ben Roethlisberg out with a you'll never guess, a Leg injury are getting 3 points. 
Have a fresh Pair of Batteries in the remote. Just kidding we all know Remote Control Batteries Never DIE. - Mike Stigs - StigsSports -

***UPDATE Monday 10/12/2015 AM ***  On Sunday Night, Major League Baseball announced that Chase Utley would be suspended for Games 3 and 4 of the NLDS as a result of the play.Guess MLB saw this post.

Colts vs Texans

The Indianapolis Colts 2-2 are hoping Andrew Luck will be back at the quarterback spot when they go to Houston Tonight. The Houston Texans are 1-3.  Andrew Luck missed last weeks game with a shoulder injury and is a game time decision.

   The Texans are in the middle of it's own quarterback issue. Ryan Mallett replaced Starter Brian Hoyer after Week 1. Mallett was benched in favor of Hoyer during last week's 48-21 loss at Atlanta after completing 12-of-27 passes for a season low 150 yards with 0 touchdowns and 1 interception. Indianapolis has won five in a row over the Texans Indy beat Jacksonville 16-13 last week in Over Time with some LUCK, how about three missed field goals by the Jaguars. Handicapping this game. The line is Texans -3 If I was a betting man, I'd take the Tampa Bay Lightning over the Philadelphia Flyers, St. Louis Blues over the Edmonton Oilers, and the Nashville Predators over the Carolina Hurricanes.

Lions at Seahawks

   When the NFL put the schedule together a Lions vs Seahawks game look good for a Monday Night Match up. But here we are, the last game of week four. If Seattle wins they get to .500, if the Lions win they get their first WIN of the season. Detroit Lions 0-3 go way out west to visit the 1-2 Seattle Seahawks. Last week Seattle won at home 26-0 over The Bears!. Detroit lost 24-12 to the Broncos.
   Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson 101 pass attempts 71 completed for 692 yards, 4 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. R. Wilson has ran the ball 24 times for 137 yards.
Detroit Lions QB Matthew Stafford 128 pass attempts 82 completed for 814 yards, 5 touchdowns and 5 interceptions. 
   Running Backs : Seattle Seahawks RB Marshawn Lynch has 38 carries, 128 yards and zero touchdowns. M Lynch is a Game Time Decision for Tonight's game. 
   Detroit Lions running back is Ameer Abdullah in for Injured Joique Bell. Ameer Abdullah has 82 yards, 1 touchdown on 21 carries. 
   Top Gun Wide Receivers, for Seattle Doug Baldwin 17 receptions, 162 yards, 1 touchdown. The Detroit Lions has Megatron Calvin Johnson 20 receptions, 199 yards, 1 touchdown. 
    Handicapping The Game : Detroit 0-3 has scored 56 points in three games but has given up 83. Seattle one of the hardest, maybe the hardest place to play in the NFL on the road they are 1-0 there, and has scored 74 points in their 1-2 start. Their Defense has given up 61 points but ZERO last week in their only home game. The VEGAS line is Seattle -10 and that's where it opened at. Over/Under is 43.5 

  I have No Pick for this game, Marshawn Lynch is a game time Decision. 
 Play it Smart, play the football squares at work and hope you get good numbers. -Mike Stigs
