It’s Monday afternoon and I’m in my all too familiar spot on the couch in my living room where I’ve been laid up for the past six days due to a broken fibula. I’m getting the recap out early because I’m passing on the Monday Night Football game and college basketball slate. I’m having surgery tomorrow to have a plate and screws installed in my ankle. All well wishes are welcomed.
On the positive side, I watched UFC Sao Paulo and hours and hours of college football and NFL uninterrupted. We also ended the week in the black again!
We ended up going 1-2 and losing 2.0 units on our UFC bets. We had a chance to break even on the night had the main event gone to Paul Craig. Then again, we also dodged a bullet considering I had Rua winning the fight 29-28.
We are now on a two-week break from the UFC. However, we do have Bellator this weekend and as always plenty of college football, basketball and NFL. For those asking, I do not follow the NBA closely enough to bet on it.
We continue to kill it! We are up just over 20 units total for the year!
Don’t forget, every play I make is posted on Twitter @michaelgrocke for complete transparency. Congrats to those that tailed. I appreciate all of your kind words.
I hope all your bets were winners!
