notice how all the o/u's are kind of low?

defenses are gonna be way ahead of offenses early on this year due to the lockout


also moving the kickoff up to the 35 will probably mean lower totals this year. last time it was at the 35 was 1993 and only 4 kicks were returned for td's that year. last year there were 23.

they had to figure out a way to compensate for all the dumb penalties the defense gets in today's game.

I think 6 games went under during the entire 2010 season

it was to cut down on injuries during kickoffs.

i rode the over all year last year.

yeah, I know. they also can't get more than a five yard start on the kickoff either.

I was talking more about the rules that prevent the defense from touching anyone. Makes it kinda tough for them to do their jobs

First bet of the football season has been placed. Bought the Pats down a half point so I have NE - 6 @ miami. Decent sized play. Figured that line is only gonna go up at this point.

Can't wait for the college games on Labor Day weekend

Picked Arizona in a suicide pool this week :?

was worried there for a while, but AZ has just gone up 28-21

Some people already lost cuz they picked KC and or Cleveland to win. Luckily if you lose one week you can buy your way into it again for more money. Only allowed to buy your way back in once though

I usually don't bet big until october, but I love notre dame this week (buy the half point and take them laying 4). The Saints as well (again, buy the half and grab minus 6).

I like dallas as well. That game looks too easy. Buffalo is another game I like a lot tomorrow.

Notre Dame fucking blows. I bet on the two teams I hate the most today (PSU and ND). They both suck.

Take the Ok St/Tulsa over and the stanford/arizona over tonight.

God I love betting on football.

So whats the biggest point spread you've ever seeN

I log into my site this morning, check lines for tonight and see this:

Mon 9/19, 8:35PM (EST) Props
227. St Louis Rams +7120 -110 +250 O 44 -110
228. New York Giants -7120 -110 -300 U 44 -110

SO obviously some clown was trying to post the MNF line as 7 1/2 but put it in as 7120 (it was at 6 1/2 last night so there was movement).

So I put my max amount allowed on the Rams getting 7,120 points...also teased them up to 7,129 with 2 games this Sunday just for shits and giggles. Sadly I know they will just cancel these plays, they have that little "in case of obvious line error" nonsense, but kind of funny nonetheless.

if i took the rams + 7120

the giants would cover
