    I took Green Bay +6.5, I understand they have guys out but it’s a lot of points for Rodgers to get. BTW I respect Arizona as a truly elite team as well, Green Bay can run the ball they have a great back would not be surprised to see them slow the game down and run the ball have Rodgers make some key 3rd down throws.

    Personally I am let down some key guys are out, it was set to be a star studded affair

    You know Steve Stevens? His video came up on my YouTube tonight. What a guy. A classic character, you got to love him! He went on an amusing rant about “Mattress Mack” at the start, it’s all I listened to, he’s good in 30 second clips. You can learn a lot about how to sell from watching him. BTW his sales pitch isn’t aimed at guys like us so don’t be posting about “don’t you know he’s a scammer etc” yes I understand brother

    Have you seen his TV Show? It’s classic stuff you can find the full episodes on his YouTube, I watched them all

    The Steve Stevens office environment is amazing, he had them lined up in cubicles boiler room style pitching his plays. He had this big fat guy as his #2, forget his name pretty sure it was Captain or Sarge, was one of the slickest on the phone I’ve ever seen! The sales script is legendary and he delivers it perfectly. A work of art

    The big Skipper. I think I heard he was in rehab for something. If you like SS watch this two part video. The ending is perfect.

    I took U50.5. 7-0 halfway through the first. Not the greatest start.

    Sorry Tella...

    Green Bay has 4th and 1 around the 10 yard line. They run the ball and the Cardinal defender meets the running back perfectly 2 yards behind the 1st down marker. And the running back goes through him and gets the 1st down. I am guessing that is the difference and this game goes over.

    We move on.

    Edit: Cardinals are playing this real weird soft defense. All the backup Green Bay WRs are seemingly open by 5 yards all the time.

    I had San Antonio +6.5. They got out to a 25-5 lead and I thought would be smooth sailing. Nope. Dallas has already almost come back and it is early in 2nd. Gonna be one of those nights I guess.

    Edit: Dallas goes on a 30-0 run basically and it is starting to blow out the other way. Brutal.

    If you had invested a little more effort the past few days in the wagering thread Pipes I might have gifted you a sure fire Tampa Bay Lightning lock or two.

    TBL 4 - Coyotes 1
    Need one more trash time goal for the extra style points here

    Coyotes haven’t won a game yet.

    Muffed punt by Moore gives GB another 7 points. Sigh.

    Believe it or not, Utah getting blown out in the first half actually doesn't make the game hopeless, as it makes it more likely they will take out their starters early, and I can win the bet in trash time.

    I had no faith that Houston would win this outright, so I took the spread. I really need the Jazz starters to sit soon, though.

    Well, never mind. This is a beatdown. Houston is terrible. I might have to fade them going forward when the line is single-digits like this.

    Damn. Az just giving this game away. 2 turnovers inside their own 20, and then allowing two 4th and shorts that leads to 14 points. Probably for the best to get the L out of the way now and play the rest of the way with less pressure.

    I doubt game goes under. But my own fault. I could have bet O25.5 at half and gotten out of it and I didn't. So this likely L is completely on me. It is fine.

    Pipes never hedges. Never has, never will. Let it die. You don’t need to “get out” of your bet brother. You either win or you lose, we don’t play the games we just watch.

    Fair enough. Az just doesn't have it tonight. GB is just running it down their throats, their WRs are all wide open, and Az is giving them gift points on top of it. It is what it is.

    Nice plays brother. I haven’t paid much attention to hockey yet. Florida Panthers hot start, I’ve been to some of their games the crowd does the Rick Flair “wooo”

    I’ll look for some plays to follow.

    Brothers please post your baseball analysis earlier in the day tomorrow, Braves very short favorite. Wish Astros were a bigger dog I’d take them gladly in that case. Now won’t bet anything until tomorrow see early morning how things are looking

    You bet the under you should be thrilled Green Bay is running it down their throats
