I tried my best to give a bunch back on Monday to avoid this. Loaded up on Seattle and went with GB at other books in live betting to "transfer" funds. That Seattle TD put an end to that plan. Between that score and my prop profits Im expecting the cut any day now.

If anyone wants soccer game props that are apparently good enough to get me cut, feel free to PM me your email address. First ones will probably be out for this weekend. I'm not charging, but will accept donations if we do well.

Does anybody see any reason not to max a teaser of the Giants +8.5 and Green Bay -1.5? Hard to envision a scenario where the Eagles could possibly beat the Giants by more than a TD, especially with the way Eli has been playing at the end of games. I think teasing the Giants with everything is a good call. The weakness of the leg is the Packers because you are playing against a team on a short week that included travel, and I hate going against winless teams. However, i think the Saints are not a team on the rise at this point, and they are still set-up to be much better at home on the turf than on the road. So talk me out of this one a bit...

Hell no dude. The fact that the Giants are underdogs is +2 points of bait for the public. Think about their secondary compared to what the Eagles have faced so far this year. Add to that the fact you have to trust Eli on the other side of the ball and that bet seems dangerous to me.

Thanks dude. I hit that one pretty hard. Like I told a buddy of ours, those home runs in the fifth couldn't have been any sweeter if they were hit into a field of corn.I didn't tail bmj today, but that is a nice job.

the line did seem suspicious to me too. I am in it for a quite a bit already, and i am glad it is the Sunday night game, because if all goes well i have plenty of opportunity to hedge out before the game starts. Eagles are great at looking horrible, and then when you expect them to lose they all of a sudden click. Reid has also always put a ton of emphasis on winning the division games, and you know they have planned for the Giants well. But, their OL is still crap, and i don't think it will be any better this week coming up. For those of you who can find prop bets (bastards!), Vick ov rushing yards or over sacks for the game are probably solid bets. Of course since i think that is the way it will go, Reid will probably run the ball 30 times and screw all of it up, so on 2nd thought maybe skip those first props and McCoy over.

Alright, could really use everybody's help in here. I am in a survivor league and am down to only one pick left. Fortunately, the league went from 15,000 to about 1,000 now. As you can imagine, the payout for this bad boy is some wonderful money.
So, it is a survivor league, but instead being only able to pick a team once, it is set-up where each week the top x number of favorites are removed. This week it is Baltimore, Houston, and Atlanta, so I can't pick either of those 3. I can pick anybody else, and it won't effect any pick next week or for the rest of the turns.
I'm real pissed I am down to 1 pick left. Lost with Indy, Detroit, and Redskins last week, and chose not to take Atlanta or Houston because of the spreads or some other dumb thing i overheard. So, I would love to hear any and all advice here, who should i choose:
NO - Green Bay - they are the next highest favorite at -7.5. i wrote about them earlier, the game looks like a possible trap, but i don't know. Seems to be the pick a lot of people will pick too.
SF-NYJ - this one tempts me a lot too, with SF going off a loss and no Revis for the Jets. i don't see how New York can score on SF, so i think i am leaning SF here.
We have SD @ KC, where KC should do very well in this one, We have the Giants on a tear playing an Eagles team with half an OL and looking horrible against Cle and Ari. Also have Mia @ Ari, where it would seem reasonable Arizona wins this, same idea with SEA @ STL
SO help a brother who has been around here for a long time finally win a big pot. . My wife hates football, but she enjoys this one, and this is the only one she likes because she can dream about the money we can make. I think it is over $200,000. Money neither of us will likely ever see. So, help a brother out please...

Let's say you're stuck in a car with your family on the mountain. There are several roads down, none of which are guaranteed to give you safe passage. Some of the roads have different characteristics, but you have a tool that allows you to determine (within a few percentage points) the probability that you will not die on each respective road.So one road gives you a 75% chance of living, one gives you a 33% chance of living, one gives you a 50% chance of living, one a 48% chance of living, one gives you a 70% chance of living, and one gives you a 55% chance of living. Do you even think twice before you take the 75% chance road? And would you kick yourself less as you were falling to your death on the 75% road than on any of the other roads?Alright, could really use everybody's help in here.

538 has adjusted Obama's win% up to 66.9%, and I think that's still fairly cautious.

I agree with you on the divisional rivalry angle. And the Giants D-line is still pretty scary for anyone to try to block, but truth is they only have 6 sacks on the year.I am waiting to lock it in because, and this may sound like I am mentally handicapped, but I think there is a chance we might be able to get Philly at +money come Sunday. And by mentally handicapped I mean that I can do anything.
