Somewhere in between, plus being a Ravens fan. Its weird I don't follow him since I never follow any of his plays. No idea what I'm doing here.

He grew up really close to where we live. Gotta be some sort of synchronicity here.Here is the scrub in question. My new favorite player.
Clips reserves just went ape#### there in the last couple minutes.

Good news about blowouts -- a YMCA game breaks out at the end.
Thanks Mo needed that.OK. 4 units it is then.i hope so. don't play him like 2.5 units, but i'm still thinking he takes this fight 8 or 9 times out of 10.

What do you make of this:
Indy is -4 (-115) at Sportsbook. They are -3 (-130) at BetOnline.
Dallas is -7 (-115) at Sportsbook. They are -6.5 (-110) at BetOnline.
I've been comparing numbers at these shops for the past week or so, and believe it or not SB is the sharper book.

Dallas is -7.5 at 5D. 
The books are all over the place with this game.

I can already tell that I should go out to dinner and not even watch that damn game. It can only end in heartbreak. I don't trust the Cowboys in the playoffs and I sure as hell don't trust Stafford. Feels like a day for props.

Hey everybody back just for the playoffs. Just curious to bounce some thoughts of other people for Sundays games. I'm leaning Indy and the under and then cowboys and the over. I'm skeptical of the cowboys and indy though and kind of want to know how everybody feels about these games.

He's absolutely nails on his women's tennis and I'll tail. I quit tailing his NHL and college hoops plays a while ago. I really think he's made most of his reputation based on some good/lucky? futures calls in the NHL and NFL. I don't think he's had a winning record minus the futures calls the last 2? years in either hockey or college hoops, his supposed strengths. He killed the US Open last year though and made me some nice cash.

Some quick thoughts on Sunday's Puck Card:
Boston (-140) at Canes-No real interest in being involved here. I, along with everyone else keep waiting for the Bruins to turn it on and they continue to play mediocre hockey. Now they visit the Canes off an overtime loss at home yesterday to the Sens. Bruins haven't been able to have any real continuity with all of their injuries and at this point I question them making the playoffs. Canes got Staal back Monday and have scored 4 goals in 3 games since. Only thing that would interest me in this game is OT-Y if I can get it at +300 or better.
Panthers at Caps (-165)-I think the Caps are the better squad but FLA has been tough for me to figure out this year. Caps coming off big win in winter classic, I've got this game pretty even. Again, no interest except for OT-Y at +300, which I would play.
Bolts (-140) at Sens-I like the Bolts here but not real fond of the -140. Sens coming off overtime winner at Boston yesterday, Bolts got pounded in Pitt a couple of days ago. I think the Bolts are a top 4 team in the East, I have a Stanley Cup futures play on them, but they can't seem to keep momentum going. I'll look to be involved here, just not sure how yet. Would prefer a TB - 1 1/2 at +200 or better type play. Also could parlay them with NYI. Would lay the 140 if I had to.
C'Bus at Avs (-160)-Jackets catching +140 is entirely too much and I would probably look to play them if they hadn't played yesterday. Jackets have been among the hottest teams in hockey for a month or so and the Av's have been playing much better the last week to 10 days as well. I do like the under 5 1/2 (-120) here, but I really prefer plus money on totals unless I absolutely LOVE it, and I just like this, not LOVE. It's another good spot to look at a OT-Y play, but again, only at +300 or better.
Stars at Hawks (-210)-I'm a Hawks fan and I wouldn't touch this game with a 10' pole. Dallas is 9-2 over their last 11, having beaten both MON and NYR, 2 of the hottest teams in all of hockey, winning IN St. Louis, going 3-0 on the VAN/CALG/EDM roadie and absolutely obliterating the Yotes and Wild their last 2 games. They are now only 4 points out of a WC and they scare the piss out of me in the playoffs. +174 is entirely too much to be catching and if they weren't on the 2nd of a back to back I'd be playing against my Hawks two games in a row. Hawks come in after having lost the Winter Classic on a Caps goal with .12 seconds left. PASS.
Preds at Ducks (-155)-I think Hawks and Preds are 2 best teams in the West and +135 is too much for NASH to be catching here, but Ducks are always tough at home and Preds coming in off win at LA last night. PASS
Isles (-185) at Oil- Numbers all favor Isles of course, who continue to prove people wrong, and at this point of the season we pretty much have to accept that they are not a fluke. Their road numbers are solid and the Oilers are absolutely dreadful. The -185 means I can only look to parlay them which I will do, most likely with TB.

UFC card pulled my ### outta the fire last night. I was on a horrible downside run, and the fights turned my week around. Sitting on a nice pile of scrilla now. Won't eff it up betting on the Cowboys, although I think they win by 10+. Dalton is a local boy, although he got his new contract and a trophy wife to go with it. Good for him, I guess. Hate the Colts, but I can't bet against them at home. Strictly a spectator today. Going to sit on my pile and wait for Kurt's fedex.
Good luck all.
Good luck all.

Playoff football today... Taking my boy to see my Grandpa in the Palisades in an hour, about 90 minutes from here. My gramps is the man, he's just getting real old so I have no issues missing football to have my kid see him. Then a kids birthday party back by me at 3, which I'm gonna try to get out of.
I had to place my bet now, going Colts -3.5 -110 at 5D... Wanted to go heavy, but pulled back some.
Really hoping Dalton puts on a clinic today, GL all.

Dumb question, but how do you see that he's unbearable again if you don't follow him? I thought you had to "request permission" to follow him?
TheGooRoo
Footballguy
I think he follows him on twitter, but doesn't play the bets he posts. I did the same for a short period. I un-followed for the same reason I stopped reading covers.com. The whining and crying and dumb #### was more annoying than it was entertaining.

Please keep us all posted on whether or not you get out of that birthday party.

Yeah that's a nice little added prop bet isn't it?
I'll lean both home team favorites so long as the spread isn't too large.

just Dalton
Found Hill at 87.5 -115 at sportsbetting.ag
ETA they added the rest. Just not sure any value with Sanu or Gio

This is confusing as ####, but it looks like Swirving initially said he added two, then edited it to say he added 3 (adding Hill to the post). In the meantime, Tiger Fan replied to the post where Swirv said he added 2, asking about the Cincy game. Then Swirv says just Dalton, when Hill was the only add. I think he meant to say "just Hill", not "just Dalton".

i put bell at 61.5 and 21.5, and bush at 23.5 and 21.5. Probably lay off as you have 4 opp's for a big play

Summary:
Initially added 2 plays Ebron and Murray
Edited to add Hill over for 3rd play
TF asked if sportbsook.ag added any Cincy props. Last time I looked they just listed Dalton. When I went back and looked they added the rest of the players, but I didnt see anything that stood out.
