As of right now I'm 7-5-1. I'm up 50 bucks. I will no longer be playing 6 games, I don't play that many games and the time it's taking me to study that many plays takes away from finding my 3 best real plays. I play 3 $$$$$$$ games not 6. The more games you play the odds go against you. It's easier to hit 2 out of 3 than 4 out of 6....obviously. Not saying if I have a good Sun-day I won't play Sunday night or Monday night. I did that last week with the Niners. I will mention those plays here.

Right now I've got 5 good plays, plays that have a lot of advantages favoring one side. Now I need to see why this one is a better play than that one. I don't go way back with stats/trends, just a couple seasons but they do help. Some teams totally suck in certain "spots" while others shine. I never play Thursday night games, I have no way of knowing what that short week does to these teams. I have nothing to go with in that "spot". I usually have my picks Saturday night. Yep, injury reports are important.

It is harder early on, we really don't know all that much about the 2012 team....yet. I 'll make my plays here in this thread.

Typical internet mentality, if I hit 3-0, I will read................but if I go 0-3 now you are here telling me all about it...hahahaha!!!!!!! Say it ain't so.

Didn't you dare me to do just this? So far you are sucking, you ever handicap a football game?

7-5-1 Isn't ...yippeee!!!! But I'm up after two weeks, and as we all know it does get easier with the more info we get. Right now really don't have the handle on these teams like we will later on.

I know it's a moot point but I'm so close to be where I expect to be...9-4. A mere 5 points away.

My three plays will abe 110 to win a 100.

No not really, I won 300 with the Chargers and 300 with the Niners, I announced that Niner play right here. I wasn't around a computer when I decided to play the Chargers. I won't let that happen again.

I do deal in reality, which has me with a 50 dollar bill in my pocket.

6-5-1 after two weeks.

As we all know it does get easier as the season progresses.

The Chargers have covered 8 in a row vs the Titans.

I'm going to play the Niners -7 tonight, the game starts in about 15 minutes. 330 to win 300. I won 300 with the Chargers play, only game I played.

I wasn't around a computer when I decided to pull the trigger on that Charger game. Won't let that happen again.

Right you took them, but you never said that was the game you were betting money on until after the fact.

it means jack shit that you claimed you won money on them afterwards. It's why you acknowledged that you won't let it happen again.

Sorry princess, you are still 0-1.

Read it slowly, see where I say 330 to win 300? What's that tell you?

So I announced that play...because????? I OBVIOUSLY...announced it because I played it.

So tell me Avante in your opinion who was the best back to never gain a 1000 yards in an NFL season?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Good question little fella, that would have to be the Colts Lenny Moore who is in the Hall of Fame. He ws the first great pass catching running back. He was used as a receiver too much to have the carries to gain a 1000. In todays game he would have been a receiver, great hands!


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvsFiumpJaA

Bobby Mitchell was a 100/hurdles champ while at Illinois, started out as a running back with the Browns beside Jim Brown. Still the greaest combo ever, then he traded to the Redskins where he became a wide receiver.

Ya know that's a great post there Avante, and it got me thinking. Who do you guys think would win in a fight... Batman or Superman? I'm thinking it has to be Superman. But all Batman has to do is team up with Lex Luthor and get some kyrptonite and it's a whole new ballgame. Batman just doesn't seem like the type to team up though, unless it's with little boys. I might need to sleep on this and give you guys a straight answer in the morning but what do you think?

I might need to sleep on this and give you guys a straight answer in the morning but what do you think?

Some years ago Batman started getting jealous of all the press that Superman was getting. So he and Robin the Boy Wonder started plotting, yep, where can they buy some Kyrptonite, as we know Bruce Wayne is loaded so price was no object. It took them awhile to finally track down a guy named Juan Mendez who dealed in prostitution, illegal drugs and weapons.

Mr.Mendez known in Mexico as...EL Blanco...made the Caped Crusaders a deal they couldn't refuse. Now armed with enought Kyrptonite to wipe out an army of Supermen they were ready.

Superman was no dummy, you do not walk around with you underwear outside your pants if you aren't confident. One of his informates turned the Man of Steel on to what the Batman and the Boy Wonder were planning.

Superman knew that Bruce Wayne was about to have a birthday, so he bought him a brand new Batmobile and had the Batcave remodeled, what could Batman do but..."thanks bro"...? Robin wasn't too thrilled but fuck him he's just a kid.

Arizona at home getting 3 1/2. They are 3-1 vs the spread the last 4 vs Philly. They beat the Eagles in Philly last season...21-17 and since then have gone...7-2 the Eagles also 7-2. So why are the Eagles the road fav?

Arizona plus the number.

The Titans are 1-11 vs the number after two straight up losses. They are in that "spot" this week. The Lions coming off a loss laying 3 1/2. Gotta go with a team thinking playoffs vs a team just looking to win a game.

Lions minus the number.


All 110 to win a 100.

Now if any of you disagree with those picks how's bout speaking up....before....the games are played, ok?

After hearing that Forte is out for the Bears I'm droping that play.

Indy - 3 1/2 instead.

The Bears are 4-1 vs the Lambs the last 5 times they've met. A good team coming off a loss at home vs an inferior opponet. The Lambs are horrendous on the road ...3-14..the last two seasons and so far this season.

Yeah, I dealt with a middleman bookie too.

He would be there bright and early Tuesday morning if I lost that weekend, and would tell me I could pick up my winnings at the "house" on Thursday if I was up.

And by "house", I mean the main man rented out storage place in the boondocks, converted into a room with blackjack and craps tables. The location changed once every 2-3 months and we would get a call day of letting us know where it was.

he had all the [lol free] liquor you could drink and two big dudes that threw you out once you were drunk and lost all your cash.
