So close...

I enter about 3 of these a week just for fun. Hit 1 a week or two ago and have missed by one game in about every one since. So Close...

3-4 generally. I bet most of the stuff straight so I'm doing just fine but could use a big hit.

PS, here is my Saturday play. I honestly think this has a chance. Obviously not a great one but much better than the odds I am getting back.
