Western road dogs are 14-18 SU and 18-13-1 (.581) ATS versus the East this season with an O/U of 9-22-1 (.290) AND since 2012 the Bulls are 10-9 SU and 5-14 (.263) ATS with an O/U of 7-12 (.368) as the home favorite versus the West. BUT it's a pretty high total for a Bulls' home game. The average total in Chicago since last season has been 188.1. Only two games were lined higher and both went over. Totals >190 are 12-6 to the over in Chicago since last season so, despite an under lean, I'm laying off. There's action out there that's more fun than that anyway.
Western road favorites are 29-3 SU and 19-13 (.594) ATS versus the East this season with an O/U of 19-13. I'm going to take the Clippers ML.
Iowa State v Iowa has gone 7-1 O/U since 2006 (entire database) with the only under also being the lowest-lined total of those eight games, 111.5, in 2007. The average lined total in those eight games was 136.6 with an average score of 71-72. The favorite went 6-2 SU and 4-4 ATS against an average line of -5.6. The home team went 7-1 SU and 5-3 ATS against an average line of -5.4, winning by margins of 18,9,16,10,10,9,3 and losing the one game by 3. Count me in on the over play for that game.
Since 2010 opposing teams are 8-3 SU and 9-1-1 ATS (avg line 4.1) at Utah in the last game of a road trip after having played at least 4 consecutive games on the road before that (6-0 SU and 5-0-1 ATS L6 since Feb 08, 2013; avg line 1.8). Wade was declared out while I was doing these writeups earlier today so I had some time to think about it, and am taking the Heat on the ML.

Nugs I was a calm like the bomb in the gym today. Maggie's Farm and Pistol Grip Pump also got me through one of the top-3 workouts of 2014. You know what I'm talking about. Got a nice tanning session in the ol' Ergoline Sunrise 480 beforehand, and even got in the pool when I was done lifting. Swimming gets the blood FLOWING. Did you know that I can swim the length of the olympic pool underwater without taking a breath? I also out-swam an old woman, and she was wearing flippers. The RATM made it all possible, though.

Help me get some perspective and tell me if I'm wrong or out if line....
I bought a new dishwasher from Home Depot on 11/21. Delivery and install scheduled for 11/26.
Took half day from work to be there. Installer shows up with the dishwasher and says I need some plumbing work done before he can install.
Get plumbing work 4 days later... Taking a day off from work to be there.
Call the installation company to come back.
Finally after 2 weeks they schedule to bring it this morning. I take a half day from work.
I get a call about 20 minutes after 8 am that they damaged the dishwasher while loading it. "do you still want it?" no. I told them I want a new one and I want it today.
They call me and tell me they'll call me next week with a new delivery date.
I call home Depot and tell them them I need my dishwasher today.
Note... My current dishwasher doesn't work because of the work the plumber did prepping the new installation.
Home Depot, the folks I bought the machine from tell me to call Maytag with my order number. I call Maytag, they tell me to call the delivery company and deal with them.
The delivery company tells me I'll be lucky if they can schedule a new delivery date before 2015!
I call Home Depot again. They tell me someone will call me Monday to help.
I call Home Depot again telling them I need resolution today. They have the same dishwasher at a store 5 miles from my house but the soonest they'll be able to deliver it is next Wednesday. I pretty much flip out at this point.
I can't take another half day from work. I ordered a dishwasher 4 weeks ago and still don't have it.
I'm so incredulous that Home Depot can't direct the people that they pay to deliver/install to prioritize my delivery since they fd up and damaged my dishwasher today. How is this impossible?
Debating just emailing the senior vp for the region or contacting them through LinkedIn.
What's the play here? I know I'm hot headed but am I being unreasonable that a company the size of Home Depot can't get a dishwasher from 5 miles away in 2 business days?
Help me calm down.

Man, i'll never forget that play in last years NHL playoffs when you posted some crazy -3.5 line along with a bunch of other 5d special longshots which all ended up hitting (can't remember the teams, wanna say Kings/Sharks game 7?). After the game we all went to Sizzler and while there ordered delivery from Red Lobster. #### was radical.ChainsawU said:Remember last hockey season when we were getting the +600 overs on NHL team totals being able to adjust them 1-1.5 points. And last year in the Super Bowl you could bet Seattle's team total all the way up to the low-30s when the -110 line was 23.5. Had been wanting to give you props for this post for a while. They offer Moneygram, too. And the fact that you can parlay anything, along with "open parlays" where you can choose to leave one or more selections in your parlay "open" to be filled at a later date. It's nuts. It's like the Wal-Mart of sportsbooks. You can pretty much fly under the radar there it's so damn big. Shop 'till you drop.

forgot to UFC card started early tonight. Light plays beacuse these TUF finales can get weird sometimes:
Esparza +135
Stephens -180
Cruishank -200
Markos -115
None of these are anything special. Maybe Stephens is the one i like the most. Card alrady started and luckily am 2-0 so far, so hope these hit too
ETA: whew some of these moved quite a bit. Esparza is down to +110, still think it is pretty good value. Stephens bouncing down to -160 is nice

Nice - adding these to operation get rid of RB debt!
Got Esparza +110, Stephens -160, Cruishank -230, and Markos -115. Interesting that Stephens is the only one with a better line than what you played.

hope they work out
They will - I only played the favorites to win $20 and the dog risking $20. Hoping to get the debt under $200 tonight. It's funny that I hammered plays to run up the near $500 debt and now I'm being a big #### trying to whittle it down. I never learn. The guys in here have been on fire.

I'd be pretty pissed and usually go scorched earth on these kinds of things as well
You probably could have hooked the thing up yourself rather easily though too and saved yourself the hassle

i did nice last weekend, and there is a card tomorrow as well with a few guys i like. he is hoping we have that balance under $100 by the time Sunday rolls around.
and yeah, most of us never learn. i have got lucky the last month or 2 and have a nice surplus for now. And luckily i have my head on straight so i am not throwing it away

is this the Home Depot in Plymouth Meeting? there is a Lowe's literally down the street, but that would be a bit of a headache. let me know though Bender, i might be able to help a little if you need something
but yeah, i skimmed this earlier, but you are definitely not i the wrong here. ordering it and not having it for 4 weeks is inexcusable. I have a jeep wrangler, or i would offer to grab it with you and hook it up in your house. let me know though bud, and i can see if i can assist if we think of something

Damn Bender thats ####ed up. I would be calling anyone and everyone.
Depot should have taken control here since their subcontractor is ####### things up. Keep on them until you get what you feel is fair compensation. Your time is your money and they're wasting it. I wouldn't stop harassing them. Gllll.

Customer service, or lack thereof, really fires me up. Quick story to lighten the mood.Wednesday morning I'm in Starbucks at 8am after being up since 4. Look for the vanilla shaker and can't find it. Find employee, also labeled Manager, and ask for help. "Nah we ain't got that" and walks away. Fumes coming out of my ears, now I go searching for vanilla and find it, then proudly hold it up for all to see and yell "HERE IT IS, WE GOT VANILLA". The look on her face was priceless.

Agreed here. Any chance of finding them on Twitter or some other social media and lighting them up... Companies hate that crap and it would be totally justified. I get that stuff happens but now they need to make it right and STAT. G'luck

Markos is going to need a strong third round. How do you score the first two? 19-19?

i think so. i haven't watched too closely. Markos has landed a ton of good shots on her feet, but the positioning might get her in the grappling. Really depends on how they score the fight.

WE almost got together for a beer a few years ago when I literally lived 30 seconds from you.
Wednesday morning I'm in Starbucks at 8am after being up since 4. Look for the vanilla shaker and can't find it. Find employee, also labeled Manager, and ask for help. "Nah we ain't got that" and walks away. Fumes coming out of my ears, now I go searching for vanilla and find it, then proudly hold it up for all to see and yell "HERE IT IS, WE GOT VANILLA".

It's a good thing we didn't. We might have burnt down Barnabys for serving cold wings and fought everyone in the place.
