    Did pretty well yesterday...

    Took the Rangers in the winter classic. Then I had Oregon, the over, and an Oregon-over parlay in the rose bowl. Happy new year to me.

    Yeah, that game was unbelievable. Wish I had that over too.

    I also went to a casino on new years day and got hot playing blackjack. It has been a happy new year for me on the gambling front. Didn't like anything tonight so I'm sitting it out.

    just made a cool $454.54 (Atl +10 -110 vs the Bulls) first major bet in a long time for me and it hit!!! :D
  • Northwestern -2 tonight versus Illinois.

    Take Illinois! This is a fantastic bet.

    I absolutely love arkansas tonight. Probably my top ranked bowl game.

    I have them huge laying 9. Also played them in first qtr -3, second qtr -3, and third qtr -3.

    Go Hogs!!

    what's everyone like this weekend?????? these nfl games are complete horseshit. that league absolutely sucks (except for the gambling)

    PItt 3.5 smu 46 (birmingham)
    ark st 1.5 no ill (mobile)


    HOUSTON 4 Cincy 38
    NO 10.5 detroit 60 :lol:

    NYG 3 atlanta 48
    pitt 9 DENVER 34.5

    college I'm on smu small and No Ill big. Chandler Harnish is the man.

    I don't really like any of the nfl pu pu platter. Here's what I'm thinking...but I could be easily talked out of these (will all be small bets)...houston/cincy under, detroit (you will notice from my posts that I NEVER have a hook...I always buy the half point...unless it's a first or second half bet, which my bookie doesn't sell those half points), atlanta (I'm biased, I hate the giants), pitt/denver OVER 34.5 (I will buy this down to 34...my best nfl play, possibly a medium bet for me).

    Northern Illinois will be by far my biggest play of the weekend (prob on the moneyline). With some possible college hoops HDICs (home dogs in conference) plays mixed in. The football this weekend is complete AIDS.

    Good luck ladies

    I am seriously considering pulling the trigger on a missle...NFC -4 in the SB

    I think baltimore will be the AFC rep (or NE with their horseshit d). GB or NO will demolish either team. I am trying to figure out a reason not to put this bet in. We will see what sober fixer thinks tomorrow

    I love the Texans today. I'm glad that I put that in earlier in the week at -3. Looks like it is up to -4 everywhere. Not sure about the late game....may just go with the over, but that is such a huge total.

    i'm with you. got it at -3.5 yesterday. figure it could be 4.5 come kick off...

    kinda like the saints tonight. i think they blow them out. lions had a good year. gonna end tonight though.


    like the dogs tomorrow....the more i think about the falcons game, i see them winning outright.

    i think the late game's gonna be an ugly 13-6 slug fest. jumped off the tebow train at the right time a few weeks ago. still, tough to resist a home dog in the playoffs...i think they will keep it close with mendenhall out and ben still hurt. i wish dawkins was playing though. will be a small play probably.

    2-0 to start....

    today i got falcons +3.5, buying half pt...will wait to put in late game. slight lean towards the tebows to keep it close though. not sure.


    also small tickles on the saints +265 and falcons +2000 to win the conference.

    and just for the hell of it, threw in a small 6 team teaser...hit first 3 yesterday (texans +4, over- saints game 52, saints -2.5)....got falcons +11, over- falcons/giants 40, and steelers pk today.


    good luck to you.

    Took the Giants today. Very nice play.

    I can't decide on the 2nd game. Its down to 7.5, but thats still a high #. I'll prob end up going with a small play on the Steelers.

    Mike Smith should really be fired for his decision making...4th down and you go with an empty backfield after they already stuffed Matty Lice on a QB sneak on 4th down earlier? Horrible...combine that with his decision to go for it at his own 29 in OT arlier this year against NO, I'd can the dude.

    So as you might guess I was on the Falcons earlier.

    Propped Heath Miller for over 39.5 receiving yards, 4 plays inso the game he has 41, with my luck he'll catch a screen for a 2 yard loss and blow out his knee.

    Also teased Steelers Pick, Under 43.5 and N. Ill + 10.
