the betting thread

Don't hedge unless you're talking about over a grand.

I'm on the Pats, Seahawks, and both overs today.  And still up on IGY by $20, which is sadder than sad.

[QB Eagles]

Seahawks didn't go for two points there.

Hmm.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Oh well.  I had the line teased for the most part, so that last TD was huge.  Also made quite a bit on a 2H parlay.  Could have been a lot worse.

Good thing I hedged.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I have about as much on the Patriots as I had on the Packers last weekend.  A lot of points would be a nice bonus.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Ok, now that I'm wagering for "real" money and generally place at least a few bets every night, I might as well try to get this thread back on track.

Leans tonight:
Hawks +6.5 at Heat
GTown ml (-165) at Seton Hall
MSU +4 at Illinois

Thoughts?

Cashed (luckily) on a 3 teamer this weekend with the Bears -10, Jets +9.5 and Jets/Pats to the over (gotta love garbage time).

Also on Pitt and the over (straight bets).   Last two weeks have made up for a zesty 3 wk string to end the season.

I love Gtown tonight.  I also like MSU there but I never have a good gauge on the Big 10.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Added DePaul +18.5 and UGA ml (-175) - along with a little nugget on the MSU ml +165.

Just like the rest of the world, I am leaning Packers this weekend.  I was originally on the Jets because I would prefer that they beat the Steelers, but the line isn't big enough for me to go there.  I currently have a big bet on Packers +3.5/u50.5 teaser and a regular bet on a Packers -3/Steelers -3 parlay.  We'll see on Friday (reduced juice day, of course) how I heavy I go on the lines.  I will probably stay away from the totals except for the aforementioned tease.

Going heavy on GB this weekend.  Probably a sucker bet since everyone is going to be leaning GB's way.

Jets/Steelers I'm a bit more torn about.   Pittsburgh seems like the play, but there's something that's a bit off with them I think.  If NY shows up like they did yesterday (big if obviously), they're going to win.

[Eagles_Legendz]

One reason to like Pitt: NE's pass defense was suspect all year.  It got better at the end of the season, but it was still below average.  NY is going to have a significant challenge if Pittsburgh can take away their running game.

Plus, it's about time for LT to pull his pinky and sit out a playoff game.

You bolded 6 I's but only responded with 5 me's.  I'll wait for you to correct yourself.

Put a decent amount on GTown tonight -4.  Also followed you on the DePaul bet.

[Eagles_Legendz]

Gotta love Hall fouling down 3 with 0.6 seconds left for the cover. 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I was glad I bet the ML anyway.  I didn't give a shtein.  farg Georgia and MSU, though.  Also looks like DePaul is what we thought they were.  Good think I layed a last-minute Bobcats/under parlay.
