I hit a 4 team and a 6 team teaser tonight.

Then I lost the Utah/Oregon State 2H under in overtime to end my hot streak. Overtime..

Not at all. You're just pathetic. And I mean that very seriously.

Whereever Bobby is right now, I'd venture to guess that he isn't trying to sniff out alters on a message board, and that he doesn't remember your moniker, or anybody else's.

We post about gambling in the gambling thread. So whenever you get finished furiously fornicating with your blow up doll, try to focus on gambling posts.

More ramblings on random games:

Boise-17 v. Fresno: I don't love this line, as Boise isn't quite the covering machine they used to be, but I do like the moneyline. There is simply an approaching zero value percent chance of a team that just got beat the previous week by dogshit UNLV rolling onto the blue turf and coming out with a win. Especially when that team sorta sucks in the first place and would lose to the upcoming home team regardless of the existence of the Smurf Turf.

Boise -750 seems like a bargain to me.

FIU+22: Marshall has been beating the absolute funk out of teams this year, and Karrem Cato is in fact realer than even the real deal holyfield, but I also like this FIU team quite a bit. They covered for me last weekend and that was no fluke. I've directed many a pejorative at that the coaching prowess of one Ron Turner, but this year he seems to be proving me wrong. Florida International has definitely pulled away from even Schnelly's old team FAU in the "new Florida school" power poll.

So with those competing considerations, I'm likely to lay off this one.

The MAC is not a friendly betting conference like it's been in years past. There's just very little stratification this year, which means there is much more NFL-esque head-scratching unpredictability, which is no good for a gambler. The two MAC games I might consider trying on for size would be Akron-3 at Ohio or BGSU-3 at home. The rest of them look like pretty spot-on lines too me...meaning, that it wouldn't be advisable for me to make plays on them, and so I wont.

I like UAB-1 on the road against MTSU. UAB has been solid. They burned me one weekend, but, other than that, they've been continually exceeding expections. Good for them.

Alabama-13.5: This is too many points, but I definitely think Bama wins this game. As such, I wish the line wer several points lower that that the spread would be bettable, and also the moneyline much more desirable. I'm not ruling out the possibility that this one heads in the direction from whence it came. If not, I may be tempted to do the unorthodox "points on underdog/ ML on favorite" play.

Do you post emoticons as a substitute for writing words because you find writing words to be kind of tricky? Or is it because you're a homosexual?

*And, to be clear, there's nothing wrong with being a homosexual.

Final Saturday Card:

CFB STRAIGHT BET
[402] LSU -9½-110

CFB STRAIGHT BET
[339] GEORGIA -3½-115 (Game being played @ War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock, Arkansas)

CFB STRAIGHT BET
[325] BAYLOR -8-110



I'm 6 of my last 7 including 3 ML DOG hits (all posted here pre-kick) so it may be a good time to fade!

Have you not learned your lesson betting MLs? Didn't you just lose 2 grand or so on a LSU ML play from last year?

Why do y'all hate on Bobby so much? He should post his thoughts/picks just like every other asshat in here. And the new-alter-every-year-thing is pretty funny to me. So just leave it at that and let's talk games and bets.

How much do you put on each?

2-0 after last night, usually means a bad weekend coming, may lay low and only play a few.

So far mizzou +5.5 and ml, and ohio +3 locked in.

Ohio and FIU are the two plays I left off my card. Still good bets I think. I've had such a good feel for the BIG12 and SEC West this year, trying to keep the roll going.

What are y'all thoughts on GT -1 at UNC?

I could see a lot of betters seeing UNC's close loss at Notre Dame and thinking they are better than what they are.
