Bouncing back from bad losses is a crucial part of any competition.

There is no sulking, no wallowing in the pity of your performance, but just moving on and improving.

That was me last week. After a horrible 5-11 showing in Week 2 with my NFL picks against the spread, I recovered in Week 3 with a 10-6 showing. The straight-up picks have been good all year, as I went 13-3 last week.

That ups my straight-up record to 37-11 and my ATS record is now 26-22 with two good weeks and one bad one.

Let's hope I am not a yo-yo and end up with a pattern of one good, one bad, one good, one bad because that would mean this week is bad.

I don't think that will be the case. I like my picks and it's time to stay on a heater.
