Not a terrible first weekend. Washington was a tough loss. I actually flipped to boise last night once the line started spinning out of control. VT should have been favored in that game...once they got up to -2 I jumped on boise. Great game and the potato men put me in the black for the weekend.

Admit it, you switched to BSU when you found out eyed went there and realized we must all be total badasses.

nah, man. VT should have been favored in that game. And they ended up being favored.

Boise needs to roll oregon st when they play...they do and they should play in the title game. I'm on your side man...trust me, I'll be laying money on BSU a lot this year. They need style points

haha, you love betting against the US

I'm leaning with saints too...I kinda like the under. I think minnesota will be trying to play keep away from the saints offense and trying to protect favre from getting hit too much. lot of peterson tonight

the over is not a good play imo.

if i dabble it will be small and on the saints...i have a feeling farve's not 100% into it this year. i think his career ends before january...just a hunch

maybe a saints/under parlary. although i always talk myself into a tease

I agree about favre. I could see minnesota having a disappointing year. Just seems like they are starting out on a bad note with all the crying they're doing about the title game. and they've got some key injuries already.

I only do straight bets. the rest of that stuff diminishes your chances of winning

nothing like a parlay on the monday game to get back into the black though

yeah i hear you. my friends always bust my stones about my teases. i do okay on them though.

parlays make the game so much more intense though.

kind of. it can be pretty frustrating. you're just rooting for defense the whole game. i think too many people get caught in going with the over for the reason you mentioned though.

yeah, for sure. just like people take favorites more than dogs. personally, I love taking dogs. I will bet the under, but it's not fun.

my bookie went to an online format this year. and he is ending weeks on sunday. both awful

i got a few pooches lined up for this weekend.

dude--the online through a local bookie thing is awesome. i loved that my old bookie did that. saves so much time. what site does your's use?

my old bookie is out of the biz. so i will be placing my first bet with a new guy who i have talked to a total of 45 seconds on the phone tomorrow night. not a comfortable feeling. i was with the other guy for like 7 years and knew him personally.

ending weeks on a sunday is borderline ridiculous though. that doesn't make sense.
