They hovered around .500 last year for awhile until they started benching SGA and went into tank mode. So I wouldn't buy too much stock just yet. Long season.Quote:

ECU is the better team. Also better coached.
BYU already struggling, now out top WR and top RB.
I expect ECU to win by 10+, but don’t want to get out on skis beyond ML after that Patriots debacle. Someone must have dropped a lot of $ on ECU as I stopped to get a drink and they were +3.5 and -106 trending towards 4, and a half hour later they were -3 -112. I cost myself thinking it would go 4. Hopefully it goes as I think and doesn’t end up FG game.

I had just pushed button on over 6.5 +102 before seeing your post. Now I’m bummed.
Can I take a puck line and save my soul?
What’s your handicap?
Arizona Coyotes team total over 2½ -160 for Game.
I’m gambling that bum Rittich for for the Jets. Home game in Arizona on that college campus. No dressing rooms. 5000 seats and still seats available. Complete shit show. If Leah Hextall was announcing it would be truly one of the most horrendous spectacles in recent sports outside of the NBA
Penguins are your parlay piece.
Careful with Bruins and their injuries. Wanna live that game 1P over but I’m still operating NHL on a learners permit.
It is clear I need to get weaned off Druff’s tit and learn to wager for myself again. He’s become a NBA degen. I cannot entrust my funds to such an individual. Everyone has a leak but it’s creepy like Halloween
Hey did you degens forget today starts the World Series, I think like most Houston is the better team but kinda like the Phillies today, Last 2 starts seems Verlander didn’t have his best stuff at least early in the game, Maybe Philly can steal a game here? Might bet Philly small not sure
Nola struck out 9 with only 2 hits last time vs the Astros.Quote:

Good to know, Maybe today is the day to bet Philly @+152Quote:

Could be a great series if Phillies pull out first game. Both teams know each other so well. Harper and Dusty Baker is the best example. Epic matchups and adjustments should be on tap.
Dombrowski for Phillies is everything Andrew Fraudman is not and he must be feared too. Somehow he just gets it done.
San I like your Arizona bet. Could also go over 6.5 likely one of the teams and goalies will poop the bed.
And yes lol at their dressing rooms. They have nicer dressing rooms in department stores.
I still don’t understand why Bettman insists on keeping the team there.
Halftime:
Detroit game: 136 points (I have over 229)
Charlotte game: 81 points (I have under 221)
If this does not result in 2-0, I run really bad.
simpdog and Sanlmar talking about the Arizona Coyotes had me thinking about making an NHL bet tonight.
In fact, I'm going to do it. I know it's not the bet you guys were talking about, but I'm gonna do Coyotes +131.
I hope Arizona wins and scores 3... then we're all happy.
Never seen a over/under look so good at halftimeQuote:

Vejmelka was one of two very good Coyotes goalies last year. Wedgewood (Stars) was the other. I can’t remember if you and I talked saves props on PFA. The concept was awful defense but those two would stand on their head nightly - often stealing wins to boot.
Made me some money last year. SoG props aged me.
Vej doesn’t look good by the numbers but I still have that image that makes the over hard - this is where a guy like Druff wins spots like these cause I have prejudice and dare I say it - fandom. Gross
Let’s hope for a sloppy mess.
Just got in tonight. I don’t even have to have watched Verlander. He is another regular season hero and post season zero. He just doesn’t have the arsenal - it’s all fastballs.
F5 might work 4BET
Sprinkled a bit @+151 for the game, Passed on F5, Thought I was cooked 5-0 but then verlander came unglued and I have regained the once lost hopeQuote:

I'd have ripped up the ticket.
Amazing that came back to tie. Now it's in extras and the Phillies are up. Must feel good to be a failteam getting hot at the right time.
Damnit Arizona
They found a way to fuck all of us
NZ gifted 7 by the ref off a video review so badly sighted the commentators were dumbfounded so should have been 17-14Quote:

Nice one
My NCAAF record thus far isn't very impressive (unlike my NFL which has gone great), but here are some picks:
Notre Dame +103 at Syracuse
Kansas State -1.5 vs Oklahoma State
Louisville +145 vs Wake Forest
Missouri +150 at South Carolina
Eastern Michigan +215 vs Toledo
Charlotte +15.5 at Rice
Tulsa -102 vs SMU
Massachusetts +103 vs New Mexico State
Georgia -23.5 vs Florida (ploppy pick)
Totals:
Navy vs Temple - Over 41.5
Boise State vs Colorado State - Under 42.5 -115
San Diego State at Fresno State - Over 43
May I not go 0-12.
Great picks, Never had a over/under bets be a lock at the end of 3rd, Both of them. Thanks for sharing, I used both of them in a 3 team parlay that won.Quote:

Total through 7 weeks: 25-7-1, +20.21 units
Note that each bet is 1 unit, so the +20.21 figure is due to some underdog moneylines coming in. I don't do multiple unit picks like some handicappers, as it's a bullshit way to falsely pad your record.
A start for the ages.
At my peak, I was 18-2-1, +16.57 units.
However, I have still gone 7-5, +3.64 units since then, so it's not like I'm slumping.
Also notable is that, of the 7 losses, six of them were either leading at some point in the 4th quarter or I lost by 0.5-1 points (or both). Out of 33 picks so far, I've only had one bad one (Saints in week 2), but that was made before a key injury. So if you take out that one (because of the unexpected injury after making the pick), all 32 picks either won or were close.
I don't think I'll ever be able to duplicate this.
This one was fairly easy to predict, 5 weeks since their last game so was going to take them awhile to get their rhythm. Playing at a very loud away venue against an underrated team and half of theirs were new combinations or inexperienced including a rugby league convert who doesn't know what the fuck he's doing half the time because the structure is so different from what he's used toQuote:

Australian NBL Future, not that many would be interested
New Zealand Breakers are the best defensive team in that league (Early on but short season/playoffs compared to the nba) They are paying +1100 somehow to take it out. Should be about +500 to +600 so pretty good value I believe
Nhl 2pm eastern
Rangers stars under 5.5. But maybe wait to be sure it’s shesterkin in net for NY
First Saturday of the season that I don’t like much at noon, Fired small ND even and penn State +15 1/2
Syracuse -1 -103
Oregon -17 -109
Not a good start for me
My Irish start out big with pick 6 on first play of the game.
Speaking of Irish Catholics - that fail school Boston College down 10-0 vs a truly awful Connecticut.Quote:

Baylor over TTU, and the over, neither team plays defense.
I’m on the wrong side of this ND game barring a miracle. Glad most of you are the other way. Horribly coached game both ways. ND was dominating LOS and had 7 offensive points and caught a break the other guy was more retarded going for it. This game is setting back the black coaches association 20 years.
I looked at this. How did TT hold WVU to 10 last week? WVU sucks, but scores. TCU-WVU is on pace for average 90 point Big 12 no defense game today. That TT game scared me away from betting over on TCU/WVU today.Quote:

Wow, I just had probably the worst beat of the year. I have W Virginia +7.5.
TCU is up 3 and has 4th and 3 at the W Virginia 35 with about 20 seconds left. W Virgina defender is offsides pre snap, so no matter what happens TCU is getting the first down and kneel down and game over. I only lose IF TCU scores a TD on the play, and they do.
So sick.
Had a good week last week. I guess this is where the wheels come off, everything goes against me, and I get buried.
