Ben Burns' WGN T.O.M. (5-0 L5 totals!) - DAY GAME!
Ben Burns comes off yet another profitable day on the diamond, including a winning ticket with the Indians/Royals "Under" the total. This renowned "Totals Guru" is now a perfect 5-0 with his L5 baseball totals and a remarkable 13-2 his L15 baseball selections overall. Both those sweet streaks are on the line this afternoon.

Ben Burns' PERSONAL FAVORITE (13-2 L15 MLB!)
Ben Burns always seems to dominate at this time of year! Ben closed out last MLB season by going on a powerful 51-26-6 (+19.95) run from Aug. 20th on. It looks like 2007 will be more of the same as he is currently a stunning 13-2 with his L15 MLB picks. Ben was 3-1 Sunday but lost his "PF" on Oakland. BANK on Ben serving up some "sweet revenge" today!

UNDER falcons/bengals
Game: Cincinnati Bengals vs. Atlanta Falcons Game Time: 8/27/2007 8:00:00 PM Prediction: under Reason: I'm playing on the Falcons and Bengals to finish UNDER the total. The Bengals saw last week's game vs. the Saints finish above the total. However, the Saints were one of the highest scoring teams in the league last season while the Falcons are currently still trying to find their identity on offense. Additionally, a closer look shows that the Bengals first team offense only managed three points in the first quarter of the Saints game, finishing with 19. That probably sounds pretty good to Atlanta's starting offense though as the Falcons managed only six points in the entire first half of their last game, none of them coming in the first quarter. Marvin Lewis has no worries about his offense. Lewis, who comes from a defensive background, knows his defense need to improve from last season though, if the Bengals want to take the next step. As a result, I expect the Bengals to place a real emphasis on defense tonight and for them to play particularly well on that side of the ball. The Falcons still have real questions at quarterback and its yet to be determined if Harrington, who is 23-43 as a starter, is the answer. I look for a relatively heavy dose of the run from both teams and for the final combined score to be lower than expected. *Monday Night Total of the Month
Ben Burns' #1 National League East Game of the Month (13-2 L15 MLB!)
Including yesterday's NL Central GOM Winner on Houston, Ben Burns enters Monday having gone a magnificent 13-2 (87%) with his last 15 MLB plays. That's no surprise though as Burns has had several simply amazing winning streaks this baseball season. Burns returns to the Winner's Circle with his NL East Game of the Month.

BIG AL'S 100% ATS MONDAY NIGHT GAME OF THE YEAR
Monday
At 8 pm, on Monday, our Preseason Monday Night Football Game of the Year is on the Cincy Bengals minus the points over Atlanta. Last week, Marvin Lewis' squad fell to 0-2 with a 27-19 loss at home to the Saints, while Atlanta moved to 1-1 with an upset on the road, 13-10, over Buffalo. This will be a great spot for Cincinnati, as 0-2 teams off a loss as a favorite are a perfect 9-0 ATS since 1983 in the preseason on the road, if they're matched up against a home team off an upset win. Take Cincy. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
