One public scoreboard

PinksDesk picks is the only public call. Homework stays private. /engine redirects to Learn. Help and Learn no longer teach a second computer grade.

Week 2 slate + ladder shipped

Sixteen Week 2 games live off CBS/DK early lines (Sep 14). TNF BUF −3 / 53.5. Parlay ladder 3–6: SF / BAL / TB then PHI, BUF, CHI. LAC −7 hedged off the naked ladder. Murray OUT flips CHI −5.5 onto the six-teamer. SEA is a Lock but parlaySafe false. Pool card overs reset. Snapshot flipped to Week 2.

Week 1 desk 12–4

Sixteen graded on the blot. Desk 12–4. Misses: LAR (Melbourne TNF), TEN (Jets 23–10), LAC (Cards 26–14), DAL (Giants 28–20). Everything else cashed SU including MNF KC 31–10. Write 41 exact on Monday. Misses stay posted. ATS remains the soft spot on big favorites.

Hit — Chiefs 31, Broncos 10 · write 41 exact

KC 31–10. Desk on KC, Over 37.5, write 41 — total landed 41 on the nose. Mahomes looked like Mahomes at Arrowhead. Public fade on DEN +2.5 was the trap. Off parlays was correct; the side and the write were the ticket.

Sunday bag — LAC / TEN / DAL misses

Bag cashed around the chalk: CHI 59–37, CIN 33–27, DET 31–30 OT, BUF 36–31, BAL 41–23, JAX 34–10, PIT 20–13, LV 27–13, MIN 39–22, PHI 24–22. Three misses on the blot: LAC (ARI 26–14 — Chargers laid 9.5 and got wrecked), TEN (NYJ 23–10 — Titans were the lean, Jets won going away), DAL (NYG 28–20 — Dak's usual Giants spot flipped). Do not chase LAC naked in Week 2 — hedge only. TEN and DAL stay off the ladder.

Canonical door: pinksdesk.com

The house is Pinks. The address is pinksdesk.com. Netlify stays live until you buy it and point DNS. .vegas is a plate, not the door.

Desk roster — emails, house door

Join writes the list to the desk database, not just this phone. Join ▾ Roster. House code. Mailer still dark. DNS later — pinksdesk.com and pinks.vegas look open on RDAP.

Algorithms, without the cologne

Learn and Engine now name Elo, Massey, Pythagorean, Kelly, CLV — and mark which six weights are actually on the desk. Week 1 is a market prior. Power ratings wait for Sunday.

Pull CBS / Circa — not a ticker

Games has a Pull CBS / Circa button. Grok looks those two up when you tap. Snapshot stays printed. Half-point moves get marked. Cached three minutes so we do not burn the key.

Nav grouped — Board, Letter, Join

Top row is Desk, Yours, Games, Parlays, then three menus. Letter holds the letter, Learn, How to use, What’s new, Sources, Studio. Join holds Join and Legal. Board is analysts, engine, wire, books, pool card. No more sideways hunt on a phone.

Personalized Pink Ticket + factor bars

Yours rebuilds the ladder from the engine with your style, legs, window, and a public haircut. Engine rows now show bars, not just numbers. Still a typed snapshot — Wire is the live pull. Not a 12-site ticker.

Learn — members, sources, Grok vs humans

Education hub: parlay ladder, weak-leg hedge, bankroll, Grok vs humans. Locked until Join (free, 21+, every disclaimer). Sources listed and linked. Tuition $0 — if we ever charge it is only APIs, posted first. Not a get-rich system.

The letter, Join, and drafted Legal

Daily desk writing is live on the site. Join requires every disclaimer box. Email and SMS are drafted and dark — nothing goes out until Join says the mailer is live. We will not rush a blast.

How to use — tap the ?

A ? sits next to each heading. Tap it for what that section is and the buttons to press. Full walkthrough is How to use in the top row.

Stations windows + hedge on every slip

STN Sports listed with the neighborhood books (Red Rock, GVR, Durango, Palace, Sunset, Boulder, Santa Fe, Fiesta). South Point and Rampart share a sheet — Stations does not. Save now jumps you to the ticket. Each parlay prints a hedge on the weakest leg: cover the stake if it dies, stay green if the parlay hits.

Pinks mark + print the pink tickets

Wordmark is PINKS with the salmon stub. Ford Field night stays. Parlays now saves more than one ticket on this phone. Print tickets sends paper or a PDF for the window — phones fail in books more than they should.

Studio — palettes and materials

Grass and pigskin were never out of reach. Studio shows Ford Field night (live), Pink Ticket, black/crimson, and navy/maize as a no. Turf, pebble laces, leather, and ticket stock as samples — a strip or a panel, never wallpaper.

This is Pinks

Not a Bogey’s sheet. House is Pinkerton — Jerime, Michigan-born, Vegas since 1996. Live odds links on Circa, Westgate/Caesars, South Point, DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Pinnacle, Bovada. Hockey desk is next. Then we marry parlays. Baseball after that.

Ford Field night

Green-black Seahawks desk is gone. Night field, Honolulu only on accent and active nav, silver type, turf hits, crimson misses. Leather lives on the Bogey card. One yard hash. No grass wallpaper.

What’s new, dated

This log is now the memory. Ships, finals, and misses stay in order so we can see if a weight or a feed stopped earning its keep.

Engine live — public weights

Market 32, cappers 18, injuries 16, public fade 12, spot 12, desk prior 10. Feeds in: NFL.com, ESPN, CBS, Action Network, SportsLine, Covers. VegasInsider / NBC / USA TODAY skipped as duplicates. Travel penalty on Melbourne was not enough to flip LAR off the chalk — logged as a miss, not patched after the fact.

Grok wire — pull, don’t poll

Native X search on Schefter, Rapoport, Pelissero, Garafolo plus NFL.com / CBS / Action Network. Not on page load. First pull confirmed AJ Brown (NE) high-ankle ~4 weeks, Darnold hip (miss Week 2), Odunze still Q, 69% public on DEN +.

Miss — Rams −3.5 in Melbourne

Desk and engine both on LAR. Final SF 27–7. Purdy 3 TDs. Rams landed 28 hours before kickoff; 49ers had a week. Under 48.5 cashed (34). Super Bowl chalk and Garrett debut did not show up. Spot/travel weight stays — it was too small to beat market + consensus. Do not chase Rams on Sunday tickets.

Desk 1–1 · Engine SU 1–1 · ATS 0–2

Bogey card + parlay ladder posted

Week 1 blot: CHI, CIN, DET, BUF, BAL, JAX, PIT, TEN, LAC, LV, MIN, PHI, DAL, KC. Overs 37½ both windows. MNF write 41. 3–6 teamers: JAX / DET / LAC then PHI, CIN, CHI. South Point. BUF/HOU, GB/MIN, NYJ/TEN, DEN/KC off parlays.

Hit SU, miss ATS — Seahawks 13, Patriots 10

Desk on SEA. SU cashes. SEA −3.5 does not cover (won by 3). Total 23, under 44.5 cashes. Darnold leaves with a hip; later ruled miss Week 2. AJ Brown (Patriots debut) high-ankle, ~4 weeks. Three Maye INTs closed it. Lesson: the opener was a slog — totals were the cleaner ticket than the spread.
