FFA Wagering Thread: THERE HE IS!@! (3 Viewers)

Btw... If you guys are really serious about a weight loss contest for the new year, pm me and download Kakao on your phone. Usually, my buddies and i do it every year and put up $500. The catch is, we set a reserve weight. If you lose 10% of your weight, you pay nothing, if you don't, you pay the 5 hundy to the guy with the most weight lost (by percentage). In other words, if everyone does well, no one pays, the reserve is a great incentive

Eta: Kakao is a group chat program where multiple people can chat as fast or slow as they please in a chat room. You can post pics (easy to post pics of your scales

, with you on on it)

Philly, Jersey, Bmore guys...

Be careful commuting tomorrow. It's not Snowing but the roads will be be ridiculous with the temps we are looking at. Just ran out for a tin of Skoal and spun out in my 4 wheel drive whip while turning.
Deja-vu all over again up here in North Jersey. I told Bender the nightmare I had on the roads around Philly on Sunday late morning/early afternoon when a "wintry mix with no accumulation" was forecast. Anyone see the Eagles/Lions game? Yeah, I got caught in that.

Fast forward to my commute into work in North Jersey this morning. All good for the first 10 minutes of my commute…then the accumulation started. No rock salt/plows anywhere. I fish tailed going 10-15 mph and pumping the breaks a few times, and had the near-death pleasure of a Dodge Ram making a left out of a parking lot mere feet in front of my car, and stopping to yield to on-coming traffic on the other side of the road right in front of me. This was after I went around an accident where the whole front side of a car got taken off, and a Mustang was in the shoulder that had done a 360.

This corridor needs to get it together with rock salt/plowing, it's becoming a problem.

 
I think the bigger problem is the meteorologists. We were told an inch to 3 on sunday. I went to Panera to get some work done and 2 hours later, I look up and there's 8 inches of snow on the ground... Nuts. There were cars spun out and stranded everywhere.

Unfortunately, Saturday is looking bad as well.

 
Ref... I thought you and I were the only fat guys here.... We can go head to head.
I'm like 5'10" 260lbs...do I qualify for team :porked:
You have me beat, of course you qualify! I'm telling you chubs, put up 500 that you'll lose 10 percent of your body fat in 4-6 months and I bet it happens.

If you're a big boy and want in, pm me, I'll organize the contest.

Todman (Buf, Ten), Gerhart (Phi, @ Cin), or Thomas (NE, @ Buf)? (Starks not available, btw)

I have MJD, so leaning Todman actually. Then I'm assured of those games vs Buf and Ten. Waivers run tonight and I can't find much of anything on these injured players. Pretty big decision too, lot riding...and I am 1st on waivers. HELP. If it helps, my other backs are Gore (@ TB, ATL) and Andre Brown (SEA, @ Det - ouch).

Will Answer Yours, Merton. :excited: (I just looked everywhere for Shaq's Merton Hanks dance, lol, but came up empty).

will do. i plan on living enjoyably for the next 2 weeks, so after the holiday i'll hit you up

 
Bless you guys that have to deal with snow and ice. That sucks.

Cannot figure out why people put up with winter like that. Not like they get a break in summer. Last time I Was in NJ it was over 100 degrees and those people freak out.

:shrug: I love it. The more snow, the better. Offer me a job in Maine, North Dakota or Alaska and I'll take 10 percent less than what I make now

so glad we discussed this tonight. just polished off 20 pizza rolls, 1/2 a cheese steak and drinking some ####ty foreign beer now at least in peace. i'm worried now for January though, back to green peppers, celery, and carrots for lunch :sadbanana: .

potential prop bets are welcomed in this thread. we can do over/under pounds lost, how long people stay on the diet, etc. hell there is always some downtime after the SB, maybe we can get Kurt to put some lines up on RB

I really hate excercise but I do need to drop the beer belly...let me think about it

 
I just ate a full can of La Choy chow mein noodles out of sheer boredom.
:lmao: I have been on a terrible run. I went to the gym for the 1st time in a long time and my belly is just obscene. I know there are a few of us :porked: s in here, we should put our wagering aptitude to the test and put in some odds for a weight cutting competition for the new year
Seriously.

FFAWT weight loss contest? :lol:
I'd join, but can i be credited with what i've done already? Less than 2 months ago i was a fat a$$ of 205- 210 lbs(i'm 5'10"). tipping 185 on the scales now. 165 is my goal. If i could cut out coffee, liquor, and late night zanny sammiches, i would probably be close to my goal already. 40 minutes on the elliptical and light weight training(high rep, low weight) can work for everyone. I eat really good(lots of veggies, grains, fruits) all day, but at night, under the influence, fuhhhhgetttttaboutit.

So - anyone want to take any early action on these early lines?

I booked Auburn plus 9 at RB....
I took FSU -7.5 and over 65.5
Just added FSU -260 ML at sportsbook....Auburn must be the public fave because this ML is WAY off

ETA: guess the CFB national championship is like the super bowl, value in the ML fave

By the way I use nropp's stuff a ton. Not his daily analysis, obviously based on our different plays all the time, but his project 351 stuff is invaluable. That + kenpom, plus watching a lot of games.

Tailed on Purple Aces and UK. Did Kentucky cover? If so, thanks Frostycakes!
He went 4-1 on sides. Illini choked against Dartmouth.
Frosty = $

:tebow:

I went 4-0 on his plays, screwed up the Illinois play and took Indiana by mistake so really 5-0. Somehow I managed to give it all back on NBA plays. I need some sort of lock, like the ones drunks have on car ignitions, that blocks me from making NBA bets.

I feel like Red or Black on roulette is a more fair bet than an NBA spread/total. I am convinced :tinfoilhat: it's rigged somehow.

The time he spends on that is amazing. Those write-up on a weekly basis must take at least an hour or two. I mainly just read don't follow too much

It's just throwing away money at this point. It was dumb as #### on my part. I was having a huge day thanks to Frosty and like a greedy little :porked: I went pretty damn big on the Lakers ML and Spread - thinking to myself well they are at home and they have Kobe back there is no way they lose tonight. They sure showed me.

 
I think think Keenan Allen is your OROY. The RBs are all going to split votes and Glennon isn't that good.

Is Kiko Alonso still a lock on the defensive side? His play has slipped but he might have built up a big enough lead to hold on. Tyrann Mathieu injury doesn't hurt.
