1u tailing DALL +110.5u DALL ML MINN ML SJ Over 5.5 pays 7.45-11u on TB Ov5.5 -125
Freakin MINN can't even beat NASH at home with NASH playing 3 in 4 with 2 OTL's. :kicksrock:Thanks for the DALL play!
 
Longest TD UNDER 45.5 yards -115Longest run SF has given up all year is 35 yards, longest run BAL has given up all year is 31 yards.Longest reception SF has given up all year is 53 (tied for best in the league), BAL is 59 yards (tied for 5th).Only one TD has been given up by either on special teams, with SF letting a 75 yard punt in.

 
:excited: Sloane wins the second set, woot! This is official now, I hope. Even better yet, Serena has gone back out. Would be great if she finishes the match and my guy can't even think to try and screw me.Still not over though, Serena plays well on some points. If she keeps it close, I expect her to all of a sudden find more. The rope-a-dope (okay, she might actually be injured) is making Sloane tentative and she is missing as a result. This is nerve-racking to watch.
 
It's always nice when your SJ/EDM O5.5 hits in the 1st period and you have the Sharks winning in another bet up 5-1.You guys. WOW. :thumbup:ETA-SJ up 6-1.
:lmao:the one play I started talking myself out of after I had played it ended up being the best bet of the night.a lot of things tonight went completely opposite of what I expected.Winnipeg and Tampa and Nashville all won on the road despite playing their 3rd in 4 nights and 2nd of a B2B with 2 of them starting their backup goalies. Oof.

Bet the under in Maryland. I have been checking since before class this morning, at school in the open computer lab, and at my house throughout the day for RB to offer 134.
mowing them down, 'saw. :thumbup:

NJ-Phi surprised me too. Nice to see some of these things happen and most of us not take too bad of a beating learning these lessons. I am not sure what most of it says, maybe under in NJ games will be golden for awhile

Seven of nine games were under as the Swede predicted, we'll have to keep an eye on this. :stalker:
 
awesome hit.wish I was with you on that one. I was watching the end of the match and it was nice that Serena didn't even make you sweat it much.

 
Couple of things. First off, I'm done betting Nebraska hoops this year. I have absolutely no read on them. Home games that they typically pull out they don't show up in. Road games where they normally would get blown out, they play well. I lost the Valpo game, the Wisconsin, Purdue, Michigan and now Illinois game. The only sometimes safe play is on the under, and even that's not safe. Against Northwestern's Princeton offense on Saturday it may be safe, but I'm staying away.Hockey. Holy ####. Totally carrying me right now. Never had a start like this. I think this short season is going to be awesome, not just for betting purposes, but just the level of hockey in general. Games already feel like the playoffs. I love it. I think we should shorten every season and only play within conference.I was fortunate enough to have tailed some twitter dude on the Sloan Stephens +7 tonight. I don't even know what that means. I think that she had to lose by less than 7 total games? I know NOTHING about tennis. But I've enjoyed the #### out of tailing some great tennis people. Thanks. Tennis and Hockey. Who would have known?

 
Chris Evert was hyperventilating throughout the whole match.I think she was picturing herself as the cream-filled center of a forbidden Oreo treat.

 
I'm a sucker but parlayed the Penguins (-210) with the Canucks (-160)Good teams at home vs bad teams.Edit: like that under too. Not sure there will be two worse offenses in the league this year. IN.

I might add PHO to this also.BTW, Did Daily on draftstreet.com. Easy $$. Like their 100K budget better. Also liked the 110 person contest that paid 2x to top 50.

It seems like that would inspire the defense more than the offense, no? The scoring wasn't a problem last year

Yes, I'm certain he was addressing the entire team.
So wait and play the under before kick?
I'm not advising anything one way or the other. I just want people to have all of the pertinent information before blindly making a huge play on the over like last year. Sounds like lumpy is leaning that way already. These guys KNOW this will be the last Pro Bowl ever played if the game continues to be a complete farce with no tackling. Whether they care or not is the million dollar question.

Exactly. The last six years have been 59, 72, 51, 75, 96, 100. Lumpy said the total was 81? 96 and 100 came with NO defense so it's not unreasonable with a half ### try on defense there will be three less TDs and finish in the 70s this year
 
Nobody wants to get hurt in this game. I still think we'll see more of the same. Game is pointless anyway.
Well it will be gone for good then, which makes me kind of sad.
In an appearance on ESPN Radio's "Mike and Mike in the Morning" on Sunday, Goodell said the league must address the quality of the game and even said he would consider eliminating the all-star game if it can't be improved upon."I really didn't think that was the kind of football that we want to be demonstrating for our fans," Goodell said. "And you heard it from the fans. The fans were actively booing in the stands. They didn't like what they were seeing."Goodell said something has to change."We're either going to have to improve the quality of what we're doing in the Pro Bowl or consider other changes or even considering eliminating the game if that's the kind of quality game we're going to provide," Goodell said.Goodell said he talked to NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith about changes they need to make for the game."I know players love to be in Hawaii but we have to start with the quality of what we're doing," Goodell said. "If the fans are responding negatively to what we're doing, we better listen. And that was my message."
The Pro Bowl was awesome when we were little and all the players gave a crap.
 
Scrap it. Too much money at risk these days for players to sell out in an exhibition game. Or make it flag football or something. It will continue to suck regardless. I'm already on the Over but it's up to 84.5 at 5D

 
Crabtree 16:1 for Super Bowl MVP (5D)He has three 2-TD games in his last 5 plus it looks like he's averaging about 7 catches and 100 yards per game for nearly 2 months.

I just played the under. If you watch the highlights from last year, the CB aren't even trying especially on the Fitzgerald and Marshall TDs. The winning players get $45,000 and losing players $22,500 plus a trip to Hawaii. That seems like too much for them not to try. I see a 38-35 type of game.
 
Nice hit Brong on Sloane.I caught it just before bed and decided to stay up to sweat it out with you. Set my alarm for 3:30 to get up and watch Federer play. That just ended.I'm exhausted.

Nice hit. :hifive:
 
Both Hawaii and TV pay the NFL millions for the game - thus the NFL is NOT going to want to shut down the game. The recent speeches are just the NFL trying to cover themselves.The players have millions to lose with an injury - ask robert edwards for those who think they should do flag football. I don't care what the comish and or Peyton Manning says they are NOT going to lay it out on the line for this game.What your going to see is more of a coaches and ref compromise. The coaching staff will be told to run more running plays and WR screens and the skill players will be told to run 4 yards and fall down at first contact. The refs are not ever going to stop the clock and they are going to mark the ball ready for play a good 5 seconds before it's ready.My guess is you see a 70 point game that would/should have been 100.

Yup, I'll be betting the under. Current line of 85 is a reaction to the last 2 years.
