March madness just a few weeks away, then MLB, then NBA/NHL playoffs, then CFL, then NCAA football, then fingers crossed NFLNow what?
The Emmanuel Sanders injury hurt me, I had Randel-El under 1.5 receptions, first reception under, and yards under. He probably doesn't see the field much unless Sanders gets hurt. I still managed to make a few bucks, but could have been a big day.
Time to get some money out and wait for March Madness.

So how did these get graded?Raider Nation said:She held "brave" for a loooooooooooooong time. The last sound out of her mouth came at 1:54 on the nose.modogg said:hmm, you sure about this bud? My under 114 seconds won, i certainly am not complaining if 5dimes stopwatch is a little slower then your'sI timed the National Anthem on my stopwatch.
It took exactly 1:54 from the word "Oh" until the word "brave"...

My over 1:50 is still ungraded at SB.Any chance this goes no action since she missed part or all of a line of the song?So how did these get graded?Raider Nation said:She held "brave" for a loooooooooooooong time.

I was graded on all of my over national anthems as wins except SB has one still pending. Odd because they graded 3 others as wins but are still holding out on one of them.
I lost a decent amount on the game overall. I was probably too top-heavy on Pitt and it cost me. Then again, if the game stays on Gb by 3 I break even so it was close to swinging my way.
Props were not very good. Masthay despite punting 6 times lost all punting props, 1st rec overs were bad, ben threw 2 ints, etc. This year really sucked bad in terms of good bets out there. Last year there was so many good bets I didn't have enough money to bet any bridgejumpers and honestly didn't feel the need to go heavy on the Saints (the side I liked). This year I played no blocked punts and no safety for a good amount.
End of the day I didn't work hard enough the last 2 weeks to deserve to make money on the game. It shouldn't take me 10 days to realize I should bet Heath Miller overs. My preparation was terrible and it cost me - lesson learned for next year. I'm done gambling until August or so. GL guys.

Hit on Gatorade Orange on BetUS and under 1:57 anthem, both posted.
Waiting on Doritos best ad, it was a co-ad, so I'm sure it'll count as no action

As soon as I saw that color of gatorade I thought of this thread.

We had a few novelty prop bets for last night's game and don't think any of them came through.
1) Who was shown first? Rodger's girlfriend or Big Ben's fiancee. Didn't see either that I can recall.
2) How many times would they show Jerry Jones? Didn't see him once during the game.
3) How many times would they mention Brett Favre during the game? Didn't hear his name once.
Of course with various interuptions throughout the game there is a chance we missed some so curious to know if you guys heard different.
Thx.

Lost quite a bit on the Favre name thing. I think I heard it once. I also think that they were given a list of things/people not to bring up. I mean, how is it that Rodgers puts up a MVP performance and they don't compare him once to Favre or what Favre has done by the end of the game? First time playing a prop like this, I think I may have learned something.I got o 2.5 -140, -185, and -210. I thought it was easy money.

Hockey tonight:
Canucks/Sens over 5.5
Until the Sens can prove they can play a game without allowing four goals, I'm going to ride the over with them. Smarter people than me think Vancouver O3.5 is the better bet so I'd suggest grabbing that if you can find it. I think this one is 4-2 or 5-2 though so the Vancouver PL might be attractive for some also. gllllll

I don't know anything whatsoever about hockey, but I'm going to tail this anyway.

I have a boatload on the Vancouver ML at -250. We have the best team in the NHL, who plays even better at home against the worst team in the NHL, who plays even worse on the road. The only thing I fear is a big letdown and not a lot of hard skating from Vancouver after their come from behind win against Chicago. Also, for only having 10 losses, I think more than half of them are against teams with losing records. Just throwing up some information here as I locked my bet in this morning. Keep the hockey plays coming!
Yeah, I was posted a loss for under 1:54. I just got off live chat and they confirmed they are paying out both sides. They said they will fix my bet. And others I have to assume. Check your tickets closely if you made this bet.I don't know why they would pay out the over. If she didn't sing the whole song I would think they would grade it no action. I do see the controversy with the under if they tried to keep the time of 1:54. CNBC says they included the "oh" she did after "brave". That's not right, what if she said, "thank you America, go Green Bay!" after she was done? Would they have included that as part of the song?

Hawks really needed to win that game too. Hats off to the canucks thus far, they look like the best team in the west. A good goaltender helps, and LuLu was playing out of his mind that game against chicago. Jealous hawk fan of team with a real goalie.

Wouldn't giving the goal and a half be a better value here? -250 seems pretty steep, no?
hooter311
Footballguy
Run and pucklines only cause me pain, but yes I agree its a better value, especially at a + number. I'm just afraid they only turn it on when they need to and we get 2 teams just going through the motions. With these teams going through the motions still means plenty of goals though.

Jones was for sure on twice. And I didn't really watch all that close.

Tailing. Got 4.5 on Loyola and -17.5 on Iona at sportsbook
I like Jacksonville St a lot too. In their first meeting, Tenn. St shot 16 more free throws and only won by 5 at home. Smart money seems to be on Jax St. too.2u Jacksonville St +11u Detroit +2.5so far for me

Statistically pucklines are bad bets but there is a time and place for them (I like them in parlays). Ottawa is playing so bad right now that it seems like this would be a great place for a puckline bet, but in the salary cap NHL a long losing streak is gonna stop at some point. Don't think it will be tonight but any team is capable of keeping the game close on any given night.

Looks like a chop, 46, right on the number:
According to the website Nielsen Wire, an estimated 111 million viewers watched the Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers battle it out in Super Bowl XLV. The amount of viewers for the 2010 edition between the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts was over 110 million.
According to preliminary results from The Nielsen Company, last night’s broadcast of Super Bowl XLV on FOX had an average audience of 111 million viewers, surpassing last year’s Super Bowl, and thereby breaking the record, yet again, for the most watched television program of all time. The game was viewed in 53.3 million households, with a preliminary 46.0 U.S. household rating.
