Chaps' 2017-18 NFL $$ Thread
13-6 Buffalo in the late 4th. Under a lock?
Of course not.
Jets put in a TD, making it possible OT royally fucks me.
I really am an OT and extra innings magnet when I make under picks. Honestly the most tilting way to lose.
Well just like I feared, it went OT.
16-13 Jets with 1:48 left, all I need is either a brick or a TD. They end up hitting the post on a FG kick with 6s left, 16-16.
Ugh.
Then Buffalo went 4 and out in OT, punted, and Jets returned 65 yards for a TD!
Total 38, my under 45 gets it.
4-0, +4.48 units to begin the season for me
I confess to being confused about the modern NFL OT rules and stressing myself over nothing.
I was equating it to college where both teams can score a 7-point TD and move to 2 OT, but that's not the way it works in NFL.
If a TD scores on possession one, the game is over. And if it doesn't, then my 13 point buffer can't be broken by the anyone without ending the game. So it was a lock. Brandon pointed this out a few minutes ago via text.
Oops. I stressed myself over nothing. Guess I'm better at handicapping than knowing OT rule intricacies.
so what's your golf bettors play this week for the Fortinet Championship Tournament ? here's mine...
Taylor Montgomery to finish top 20 at +260
sprinkled a few dollars on the NO hole in one for the tournament
all hedged against Matt Kuchar to finish top 40 at - 140
hopefully to bring home some breakfast, lunch, supper, beer and cigarette money even if the first 2 don't work out.....
OVER Yankees and Red Sox. Massive units. Look at the pitchers. 9.5. Follow my lead or don't make money, your choice. Chaps, take the remaining $50 from your heist and put it on the over.
Intra game: Baltimore +1.5
Saved everyone money but me not posting picks lately. Few years ago I won a 7 person playoff with a kisner at 40-1. Now I’ve lost my last 9 playoffs. With 8 of them being head to head.
Anyways let’s try to get back on track
Unfortunately the sharp money went in quick on him at 18-1 but I still think 16-1 is ok.
Fortinent - Sahith Theegala 16-1
GL.
Please no trollling in this thread.
I just deleted a post which was more insults than any real points.
It is fine to chide someone here for past posting (bragging about a pick they didn't post before game time). Indeed that's a no-no in the sportsbetting world.
Being a homer and taking bal-1.5 today
Tomorrow is a trashy small end of season slate & I expect the fluffy gems to get bid up.
I agree with Matos but I’m a wimp w/ RL on home teams and more importantly I lack testosterone. Matos is correct tho
MLB 9/14
Baltimore 138 (FD)
Minnesota RL -118 (FD)
Banned Jays Parlay +128 (DK)
Jays ML
Giants ML
I can spin some nonsense handicaps if you ask.
all I ask in return is your opinion on the total TNF (49). I want an under but maybe I suffer recency from Eagles/Pats . I took a Cousins interception over 0.5 prop
First time I got to see every shot of Sahith b/c he was in a featured group with JT. On a positive note it’s nice to have coin on a golfer that doesn’t miss one from 8 feet and in. The negative is dude needs to take a breath and listen to his caddie more. The par 5 performance was mainly just a factor of missing the fairway on the drive. But he put himself in really tough spots on the layup.
Going to have to really come out of the gates quick tomorrow starting on the back. They set the course up ridiculously lopsided on the nines. Hopefully the greens get a little firmer in the afternoon and we get a little bed shit from Herbert. But got to take care of the back 4 under.
On the DP Tour I put a few bucks on Hovland at 7-1. Since his odds are the same as pre-tournament…I couldn’t resist. Ploppy play though tbh.
