*** Official Flying Stupidity Wagering thread ***

Was putting together my card and this gave me a PFA chuckle.



Look at me with my trendy black background and legal book (FanDuel). Yeah, self loathing and evidently a gambling addiction.


We have LA² on Good Friday. I’m going to hell.

Simp’s Blue Jays Chris Bassitt. The guy who put “ass” in Bassitt. 24.30 ERA. Despite those early numbers Bassitt is really bad. He’s sorta like soft tosser Greinke without the talent. The comparison is unfair to Greinke. Patrick Sandoval for Angels is much better. He looked good in WBC and his first outing. Have to take the plus money and shield my ass from Angels bullpen with F5.

Kershaw vs Bumgarner. Bumgarner was awful against Dodgers and here he is again. Mad Bum said he felt forearm fatigue too. Prolly got hurt wearing his multiple World Series rings.

Like I said, I have self loathing issues.


Other nonsense? Fading the Braves Shuster - incredible awfulness. Padres Nick Martinez isn’t much better but +110. Didn’t go F5 which is uncharacteristic of me but I’m self aware. That’s important.

I should prolly take Milwaukee Brandon Woodruff over STL Jack Flaherty. Flaherty, Giolito & Fried. The Calif High School team mates that once earned me money. Now .. well, age is creeping up on us. I haven’t bet yet cause it’s prolly priced right. Brewers are hot as hell. We will see.

The grand jury is hearing the Blue Jays case for parole. They were banned last year, as you know. It doesn’t look hopeful for them.

Hockey is observing the holiday so we shall have to cope

Brooks 60-1

:stonks

Washington (Gore) +106 at Colorado (Urena)

Two burned out old war horses Kershaw and Bumgarner.

Kershaw helping to inflate Arizona Corbin Carroll’s RoY numbers.

What is wrong with me?

PFA Stupidity Wagering Curse.. yeah, that’s it

Angels (T. Anderson) -117 vs Toronto (Berrios)

Berrios looking awful.

Anderson looking great.

I was going to try my best to say the suspended play was total bullshit……. Until they showed the standing water on 15% of the 7th green.

Tampa -130 hockey

Tigers 3d round matchup vs Kirk opened at -120 Kirk and closed at -185. Im lucky to have some smart people in my network because that ended up being a complete lock.

Of Tiger plays fourth round and they post a marchup….. unless its against L Mize or S Lyle…. Id bet it up to -250

He should withdraw

Right on time, it seems.

Brooks hits one right in the trees and ends up fuct…. But uses his skill to save

Rham hits one right in the trees and hits off a woodpecker and a owl and ends up kicking out to the fairway.


One of these days i want to hold a Rham fade when he doesnt get lucky as fuck.

This was a nice bet. I tailed you on this one. Worst part was I had about $500 cash on me and just went to a kiosk around the corner. I took the Angels -1.5 +175. So I started feeding $50s into the machine and it cut off at $300 and wouldn’t take more. So I printed out ticket and had to put the last $200 in, and I accidentally hit Blue Jays for +1.5 for last $200.

Couldn’t cancel ticket because the kiosk is in a bar, so I run to bank machine and bank was closed, so I grabbed another $500 from ATM to offset the wager as I had Angels -1.5 +175 and Blue Jays +1.5 -215. The $200 was only going to pay less than a $100 profit. So come back and bet the Angels again for another $500 at -1.5 and ML half on each, with the idea if they won by 1, at least it was a hedge of sorts where I scoop the misclick and the ML bet. So now I have multiple Angels tickets and a retarded Blue Jays +1.5 bet. When it was 5-3 Blue Jays I was thinking it was going to be my only winner, but it came through and we hit everything besides the misclick.

The golf is warming up nicely now.

Can’t wait

If rham took a heart attack right now phil would win

I gotta ask Wtf is wrong with the Dodgers. They just got bitchslapped by AZ yesterday and today. Overs smashed in both games and giving up 23 runs by LA, they hadn’t given up 12 runs in 9 innings since 5/2019 and damn near did it twice in 2 games. I mean I knew the new rules would affect some things but wow. Dbacks put up that 11 today and didn’t even put it out of the park once.

Wasn’t quite 8-10 but won fairly comfortably. And after doubling the very first hole no less.

Nice call.

Bit of an anticlimax in the end, not my favourite masters tbh with all the weather trouble too

Fair play to Rahm, I really didn’t think he’d win it on form

As i said “it was good to get one (conners) the week before the masters” because i totaly struck out with Rham, which was a calculated risk I made and he shoved his giant spanish cock in my ass. Hes a hell of a player and Im happy for him.

My only gripe is once again he hits a ball into the woods abd it comes bouncing out in the fairway and brooks does the same and it sits right behind a tree. This Iberian peninsula asshole is the luckiest fucker on tour.

how fucked am i on over 6.5 in this ducks game i feel like i have a shot here

well im a genius that shit was 1 0 late 2nd when i brushed off the reverse jinx from my closet of moves

Haha nice

I hate when that happens. It pains me so much to pay the juice for misclick fixing.

Lots of high scores so far. That's why I've avoided unders, except my very first pick.

Now I'm 5-2, where I'm 0-2 with the Cards and 5-0 for everything else.

White Sox (Cease) -128 at Minnesota (Maeda)

Cease has 18 K through 2 starts.

You'd think my pick would be safe when the White Sox have 4 runs and the Twins have just 3 hits.

Nope... 4-3 nail biter in bottom 7th.

Carolina u6.5 -110
Nashville u5.5 -110
Islanders u5.5 -110
Florida u6.5 -120
Winnipeg/Leafs u7 -120

All unders today nhl.

Since another MLB pick hit for me, let's celebrate by doing a hockey dog.

Chicago +201 vs Minnesota

3-2 +0.70 units. Was hoping for 4-1 . Washington/Islanders game was 3-0 with 5 mins to go. 4 goals (2 empty net) hurts.

Stung hard on that Blackhawks game.

2-1 Chicago with 6 min to play, ended up losing 4-2. Imagine if you had +1.5!

Anyway, I'm expecting the Wild to have a letdown today, especially given how they didn't play well against crappy Chicago for all but 6 minutes yesterday.

Winnipeg +104 at Minnesota

Not quite sure Of Druff’s Chicago handicap. Being an NBA aficionado you would think he would appreciate the finer points of tanking.



Serious question: why do tanking NHL teams refuse to sit players like the NBA?

I will concede the tanking teams have been playing hard and it’s been squirrelly af.

Jack Hughes Devils is chasing 100 points (point = either a goal or assists). He’s @ 96. Team mates will be feeding him and expecting him to be selfish.

Bruins (Ullmark and playing everyone) regulation and Hughes over 1.5 points = +169

Bruins reg and Hughes over 3.5 shots = +135


I will wait for playoffs. Full efforts and less psychology

Penguins have to win tonight and blackhawks have nothing to play for….


NHL [67] CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS +450 400.00 USD / 1800.00 USD

I cannot dissuade people of the “must win” narrative. In today’s professional sports playoff structures you are a confirmed bottom feeder trying to get into the top HALF of the league. You basically suck.

Everyone makes it to the playoffs in all leagues unless you have MS.

4.5:1 isn’t wrong generally cause intuition tells you the average ‘mo is betting the “must win” so you are chock full of nutrition and fluffy money. I didn’t even look at the game but maybe I will

Upon reflection. It’s still a tanking spot. Can’t get past it. Literally millions and millions of dollars at stake. Good luck

Penguins were a GIFF team this year and tonight feels like a smack down spot. Just an observation. My doctor says it’s not good for my nerves.

Hawks 1-9 last 10
Anaheim 0-8-2 last 10
Arizona 1-7-2 last 10

Appear to be the only 3 teams tanking.

Philly and Columbus in the East are tanking a bit.

It took a while to get to this point (I lost some bets thinking it would start earlier).

Nhl tonight

Leafs/Tampa. No Marner, No Matthews. Under 6.5 -110 for me. You could go the other way and go Tampa -1.5 but I don't trust them.

Winnipeg/Minny under 5.5 +100.

Buffalo/Jersey under 7 -120


MLB 2-1 +1.00 units

Jays -1.5 -135.

I've decided to fire on Colorado tonight.

Let me count the ways:

1) Kyle Freeland has surprised everyone with two excellent starts.

2) Miles Mikolas has surprised everyone by looking really, really bad in his two starts. He's given up 10 runs and 19 hits in his first 2 starts. The only thing he's done well is avoiding walking people (12 K, 1 BB).

3) Mikolas has been historically bad at Coors Field.

4) Rockies tend to be tough at home, even during fail years. Here you're getting a nice price on them.


Colorado (Freeland) +155 vs St. Louis (Mikolas)
