That's right, Warren, we ran off with $150,000 of your secret stash. Now we're going to use it to bet on college football games and there isn't a damn thing your rotten corpse can do about it.
UPDATE
Voting is now closed. Thanks to all who participated.
YOUR WEEK 4 PARLAY PICKS
OHIO STATE (-37)
TEXAS A&M (+26)
STANFORD (-1.5)
NEBRASKA (+17.5)
A quick breakdown of the votes.
For the second straight week, 98.0 percent of you voted for Ohio State to cover the spread. You only like one other favorite, and that is Stanford. A semi-strong 66.0 percent of you like the Cardinal to cover.
You also went with two dogs. 78.0 percent favor A&M and 26 points, while 60.0 percent like Nebraska and 17.5 points.
Around midnight, we should have 100,000 reasons to celebrate.
In honor of The Presidential Power Parlay, let's open up the 11W vault and pull from Warren G. Harding's blood money. This year, the power parlay is going to be controlled by you.
You read that correctly, the readers of Eleven Warriors are going to vote to determine how to wager the last of Ohio's most dangerous son's money. During the chaotic closing weeks of the preseason, I was able to sneak into the 11W basement and walk out with several wheel barrel loads of Warren G's cabbage. Shhh, we have $150,000 of Marion's finest's stash to play with.*

Three weeks in and we haven't had a big pay day. Week 3 was our worst showing to date as we missed on two of the three picks.
What did W.G.H. teach us? It turns out that Ryan Day's streak of covering the spread is no more and the Men of Troy were straight trash against Texas. I feel like we are currently hung in a bad place, but we are bound to turn our luck around. With another $10,000 lesson learned, it is time to move on to Week 4.
Week 4 Power Parlay
It's time to pick some winners. Marion's finest would be disappointed in us for such a poor performance last week. However, wallowing over losses of the past will not bring in Saturday's payday. Channel your inner Warren G. and bring home a cool $100,000.
| Game 1: Tulane at Ohio State (-37) |
| Game 2: Texas A&M at Alabama (-26) |
| Game 3: Oregon vs. Stanford (-1.5) |
| Game 4: Nebraska at Michigan (-17.5) |
The Potential Winnings
If we are able to correctly pick the four winners, the $10,000 will bring in $100,000. Miss on one selection and the $10,000 goes away quicker than a line up Warren Gamaliel's nose.
