haha

didnt you hit on a ridiculous parlay last week? universe evening up with you. this is why you should gamble.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Yes and you're right.

Vegas could have slowly bent me over though instead of reaming me like this the next weekend.

Get Cliff Lee.

vegas added 2 games to the schedule to get more money out of you

That is a gut punch loss. It cost me two parlay's and the Texans straight up.

Even night thanks to NYG straight and the props.

Whew.

Still sucks to lose that way. fargers would have made me the lost cash from yesterday

IGY and I both hit our Monday night picks, and I'm still up $10.

Any good bowl plays?

Also, sportsbook is a little odd right now with its NFC East futures line.

They have the Giants -3 this weekend.  If you figure the winner is going to take the division (80% at least), and you are favoring the Giants, why do you have the Eagles -150 to win the division and the Giants +110 in futures?  Because the general betting public is too stupid to figure out that this weeks game is for the division?

I already have a 4x bet at +120 on the Giants winning the NFCE and a 2x bet at +450 on the Eagles missing the playoffs.  So, I think my emotional hedge is all set.  And I agree with you that if you want to bet on the Eagles, bet the game.  If you want the Giants, bet the future.

Tonight I have 1.5x on Orlando -1, 2x on Sixers -1, and 2x on Penguins +110.  Yes, betting on hockey is stupid, but getting +110 in what I think is a complete coin flip game is smart money.  Especially since I never bet on my team in a game I care about.

Yes, I just said I don't care if the Sixers win tonight.  Although, that is no longer true since I have $ on them.

UPDATE:  Todd-inspired teaser of the night:  Wizards +14.5, Raptors +9.  1x.  Lock it up.

Celtics -3.5 x2
Spurs -4.5/Sixers -1 x1.5

Get up in that ass.

Not a big fan of the games this weekend.  Maybe that's because I took such a huge beating last weekend.

If you're just going opposite of the money, per sportsbook, the plays would be Carolina -2.5, Titans -1.5, Washington +6, and Denver +6.5.

Bleh
