Sports Daddy Needs New Shoes

Record thus far: 19-21-2
Daddy�s really been takin� it on the chin lately, going 1-2 on both of my last two nights of picks. That�s how a slightly winning record becomes an embarrassingly losing record, and to quote a great MTV advertisement from a few months back, I deserved to be punched �right in my assey-face.� I�m trying my hardest to end January � which has been a cold, cold month, literally and figuratively � on a strong note, so here go tonight�s picks.
1) Denver Nuggets �2 at Portland Trailblazers
This game should be called the Super Bowl of NBA potheads, as the boys from the mile-high city take on the Trailblazers. OK, maybe that was a stretch, but at least I�ll be high as I watch my Nuggets � who desperately need a win after a three-game losing streak � defeat Portland�s best entity after Nike.
2) San Antonio Spurs �5 at Utah Jazz
This should be a sleeper as the most boring team in the NBA travels to the most boring city on planet Earth to do basketball battle. Although San Antonio has struggled all year against teams above .500, Utah is still playing without their star, Carlos Boozer. No Booze-Cruise, no win for Utah, it�s as simple as that.
3) Chicago Bulls +3.5 at Los Angeles Clippers
Chicago ain�t gonna be celebrating a Super Bowl victory this weekend, so let�s give them a little bit of sports happiness while we can.
Please bet responsibly, although I probably won�t
