    Unreal. NCST gives Kentucky a free td and then Kentucky lets them March straight Down the field again to let NCST cover.

    It really seems like the goal this whole game was to only win by 2 points and not cover. There is no other explanation for how this game went.

    Here's a few NBA for today, starting very shortly:

    OKC/Orlando - Under 216.5
    OKC +170 moneyline
    New York/Indiana - Under 215

    FYI: NY has scored 95 or fewer in 3 of 5 games, and has allowed 100 or fewer in 2 of 5 games

    Toronto / New Orleans - Under 215.5

    Somehow all the money is coming in on the over on this one, but I don't see it.

    I think it's because some believe Siakam will be fired up when coming back from his 1-game suspension. Still, this is a matchup of two teams who usually can't score.

    New Orleans has scored under 100 in 3 of their 5 games, and Toronto has also been held to 100 or fewer in 3 of their first 4 games.

    Let's also throw the Toronto -1 in there, as well, as I also believe Siakam will have a big game.

    Anyone see Brian Kelly listed anywhere at next Lions coach? I have heard it’s a possibility. Not a certainty at all. Was curious if there were even odds. I don’t see him anywhere.

    Ugh, why did I ruin a 3-0 day (with a +170) with those awful Raptors picks?

    I almost didn't go with those.

    simpdog, your team sucks balls.

    Portland is playing at GS again tomorrow. According to zig zag theory should be taking GS. Gonna be hard to pull the trigger though as bad as they looked last night. .

    I thought about taking Cavs today as they were coming off a big loss and hawks were coming off a big win, but didn’t have the cajones. It is what it is.

    Toronto really is awful.

    Imagine you have all the momentum, coming back from 10 points down late in the 4th, and taking the lead.

    Then you just wilt and let yourself get beat in the final minute.

    At least I had the balls to go moneyline on OKC instead of that lame +4.5 shit.

    I knew that they were either winning this thing



    ... or not coming that close. I got a bit nervous as they were seemingly down 3 the entire game, but they pulled away in the 4th, while nicely keeping the score low that quarter so my under would cover too.

    I would be patting myself on the back really hard right now if it weren't for that Toronto double loss. Kinda frustrated with myself for both sides of it, as there were too many indications that the under was a trap, and the Raptors just suck too much to count on to win against anyone but the Knicks.

    Bledsoe made a big 3 at the end. Based on his lifetime of work you want him taking that shot as he normally misses, but this time he made it. I wouldn't exactly call that "wilting at the end"

    Despite the 1-5 start to the season, the 1-4 day yesterday, and the double Toronto loss today, somehow I'm down only 0.29 units in NBA so far, and am 11-12 in picks.

    This is because I'm 9-1 in everything else not mentioned above, including that +170 moneyline win.

    I read the QB had a separated shoulder in his throwing arm the whole game. Why not put in the backup? How can a coach disregard the risk to his player of keeping him in there? Don't answer, I know they don't give a fuck about their players. But that's disgusting.

    He'd find out the kind of inside stuff nobody else knew and that's what he'd put his money on.

    - Even back home, years ago when we were first hangin' out he'd know if the quarterback was on coke

    - If his girlfriend was knocked up.

    - He'd get the wind velocity so he could judge the field goals.

    - He even figured out the different bounce you got off the different kinds of wood they used on college basketball courts, you know?

    I wasn't so much talking about that last 3. I was talking about the usual occurrence in the NBA when a team blows a 10+ point lead in the final minutes, it's usually a complete collapse after that. Toronto couldn't close it out, and it suddenly turned into an competitive affair which led to that killer 3 in the final minute, of which they failed to answer.

    I'm not saying this was an epic fail, but it was indicative of a sucky team which manages to take their foot off the opponent's throat just as they're about to finish them.

    Seems like huge overs to me.

    Often made money when I hear a team has nothing to play for.... good teams like to win and their defence appears pretty damn good to me.

    Yeah I'm a NFL noob so likely talking shit.

    Win and in for Wash. even badguy is off Eagles
    Brady can get $500k bonus.

    This is a live betting day. You can guess or you can see who is playing & caring then take advantage of the lagging link to preflop liability.

    Make a goal of just one live win. If something else hits you over your head take that too.

    lord grant me the strength to not fade Stafford. Fading Michigan football was 2020’s gift to me but I must walk away happy

    PS. Wash will hit 7 before your 2nd trip to the packy (Bahston for liquor store) so decide now
