Close the whole way with Pepperdine. Hopefully they can take it and give me a 3-2 day. They need to win by 3, though.

Had a 58-50 lead, then collapsed
Really only fire basketball occasionally on non football days. Funny story this guy on sports talk will throw out what he likes in college basketball. So one day last week he talked about 7 games he liked.
So for the hell of it bet 50.00 on each game, Fucker went 1 for 7 .So I thought to myself next time I hear him picking games he likes I will fade, Bet the other team
So Monday I am listening he picks 7 college games, If I remember right was only 7 college games that day. So I fire 50 dollar against every team he picked.
He went 6-1 WTF. That’s my degenerate gambling story for the week.

haha - def not doing a good job of fitting in. special thanks to the gambling gods - I'm nothing without them! dont fret - the true pathetic degenerate mush that I am will shine through and all will welcome me with open arms & empty wallets!!
PSA - NCAAB is my least favorite sport to wager on!! I don't know if the team was at an orgy an hour before tipoff, doing the elephant walk with their frat brothers or just don't give two fucks to play hard that day!!
THESE PLAYS ARE NOT ADVICE - just what I thought was playable!

I recognize the intelligence and wit. The humility reveals experience.
The thread is now yours. It is your canvass. No pressure. I’m not profitable this year. Still not sure why. I’m going to wander far from the village, find a cave and wait to die.
I like the Brown pick tyvm. I have GA today and will likely find the strength to stay away from basketball, however. GA has great NHL picks tho.

San was kinda disappointed you wouldn't sit next to me at GA today, but after some reflection it made me realize that we have to ride the hot hand. Jealously will get us nowhere in this game. Could you believe Rod (real name protected) has lost profit due to the NBA? And man could he talk....he went on for almost an hour straight.
Oilers -1.5 -120
Philly +115
Vancouver -120
Starting in a few:
Cornell +14.5 -105 at Miami Florida
Villanova -14.5 -108 vs Pennsylvania
The Pacers, who already overrated, have a bunch of players not feeling very good today.
At PG, Haliburton is likely out, and McConnell may not play either.
Jalen Smith has a hurting knee, and Myles Turner may not play either due to his hamstring.
Minnesota -5 vs Indiana
Time for a half/half bet. These are "half" picks, meaning I am placing half a unit on each of these on the same side in the same game, making it a bit smoother, variance-wise.
NCAAB
Dayton +175 at Virginia Tech - FIRST HALF ONLY
Dayton +255 at Virginia Tech (entire game)
Timberwovles looking great, up 35-16.
Unfortunately my 3 NCAA bets are looking questionable.
The Dayton one has been a disaster and will very likely lose (especially the 1H bet). They're down 18 with 3 min left in 1H. Sad!
Villanova got off to a bad start, but got ahead of Penn by 15 in the early 2H. However, now it's an 8-point game with 8:36 left. They need to cover 15.
On the opposite end (my +14.5 dog), Miami got way ahead of Cornell, but Cornell has come back to make it semi-close, also trailing by 8 with 6:02 left.
So those other two could go either way, though Cornell looks more likely to cover than Villanova.
Would be nice if I can hit both of those and the T-Wolves keep up the beatdown, to go 3-1.
I have picked and bet only a few NBA picks this year, Both was laying points with Boston, Both winner’s for small bet. Today is the day Boston goes down. Pick suns - 1.5 over Boston

lol my canvas - that sounds a bit intimidating. I see Todd and others have new threads/multiple threads. How do I create a new blank thread where I am not replying to my original post everytime? The only two options I see avail are "reply to this thread" and/or "comment" - How do I get an empty post? Sorry - last question
Didn't see Cornell losing if they scored 105, but here we are.
Hell of an effort though.
Villanova couldn't get ahead enough and only won't by 11, so I lost that pick, likely sending me to 1-2 in NCAAB.
Pacers somehow shot off much of their lead. Gonna be a sweat.
Extremely weird game involving the Wolves/Pacers.
First Minnesota took like a 20 point lead and it looked like a blowout. Keep in mind that most of the players I expected to sit did not, so this negated the reasoning for my pick (I expected maybe 1 or 2 would play, but not all but one).
Anyway, then in the 2nd and 3rd, Minnesota played like shit, and the 20 point lead evaporated into a 90-83 deficit in the late 3rd. Then the Wolves pulled into a tie to end the 3rd, and I had hope. However, they couldn't ever pull away. They got ahead 111-104, with 3 minutes left, but then shot it off very quickly, and it was tied 115-115 with 50s left. At this point I was rooting for OT.
Then Hield fouled Goebert, who made 2 FT. Now 117-115. Then Hield missed a layup with 11s left, and they had to foul again. Edwards made both. I wasn't sure how I was going to get to 6 points though, as it was 119-115 and Pacers had the ball. I was hoping they'd miss, foul, and miss again. Instead, with 8s left, Pacers made a boneheaded TO, and Goebert dunked it. 121-115, and the Pacers gave up, so I barely covered.
2-2 day overall, going 1-0 in NBA and 1-2 in NCAAB.
