In the first full season of betting on the NFL based on how hot the girls associated with each team are, I went an impressive 74-60.
Now that the betting scheme is scientifically proven as an effective, and maybe even brilliant, money-making venture, it is time to put it to the test in the NFL playoffs, which are historically known for shattering the hopes and dreams of the hard working American gambler.
Here are my wild card weekend picks:
Kansas City Chiefs AT Houston Texans
PICK: Texans +3
I usually don't like to include cheerleaders in my calculations—after all, some of them aren't even fans of the team. But these cheerleaders are twins.
Also, they seem to actually care about how the team does. This is them celebrating the Texans' playoff berth.
But more importantly, twins.
Pittsburgh Steelers AT Cincinnati Bengals
PICK: Bengals +3
As long as Katherine Webb's husband is under center for the Bengals, it would be irresponsible to bet against them. The good news for Bengals fans that Andy Dalton has officially been ruled out came Friday, so you can count on AJ McCarron to bring this one home.
Here they are getting ready for a night on the town.
And here is a more reflective, meditative shot.
And one more, because she is worth that too.
Seattle Seahawks AT Minnesota Vikings
PICK: Vikings +5.5
Viking women like Katheryn Winnick know how to handle the cold, and will be out in full-force supporting the Vikings.
You know, with all the fur and stuff.
Or some girls less into the whole Viking thing may just stay on the couch and watch from there. Either way, we're fine with it.
Green Bay Packers AT Washington Redskins
PICK: Redskins +1
This is the hardest game of the week, but I have been scorned too many times by the girls from Green Bay this year. Even "Sexy Cheese" didn't work for me. I can't handle that again.
Also, our girl Katheryn Winnick from Vikings seems to love the Redskins too.
It's a good omen.
