NBA, 7 points is a lot for SF to lay against any team, including the Raiders. What make you feel so strongly that they cover the 7?
Sunday NFL...This game is over before it even starts.

San Francisco -6.5 vs Oakland: Oakland put together a RIDICULOUS week lastwk! Ousting the SD Chargers and establishing themselves as a force to be reckoned with in their Division. With that said, lastwk was the PERFECT WEEK for their Defense/Special Teams as they posted 2 Blocked Punts, and 2 Defensive TDs... It was RIDICULOUS!!! .... and more Importantly, it WILL NOT Happen Again this Week!!! I was a bit surprised when this line opened, as I expected it to be around 3 Pts, but then it came out around a TD and I was a bit shocked... I had to sit back n take it in for a minute. After actually looking at these 2 teams, I realized that the spread is accurate and theres A LOT of value in it. SF has played VERY WELL at Home and has Lost Both Home Games by 3 Pts each to New Orleans and Philadelphia. While I dont think N.O. is NEARLY as good as they were last season, theyre BOTH still SOLID NFL Teams. I personally think BOTH of those teams are BETTER than Oakland!! Remember guys, lastwk Oakland was AT HOME and playing a Division Rival (who normally plays eachother tight), add in the fact that S.D. has played HORRIBLE on the Road too and BOOM! You've got a BLOWOUT Win by Oakland!!! Now take away ALL of those FACTORS this Week! ...... Alex Smith should finally put together a "Mistake-Free" Afternoon and Limit his Turnovers to 1 or None, add in Frank Gores BEASTLY Running Style, I think Smith looks underneath for Gore and VD (Vernon Davis) and I expect both to have solid afternoons, VD will be burning Oakland's LBs Deep up the Seem and Gore outta the Backfield should Also be effective as well. I dont see SF taking too many shots deep and theyll prolly avoid Nnamdi altogether but their Short-Intermediate Passing Game should be enough to keep the chains moving all day!!!!..... The M. Bush/ D. McFadden situation is interesting to me, as BOTH are VERY Capable RBs with GREAT Ability and they do concern me but I could see the Oakland Running Game having some trouble to get going, turning the ball over 1 or more times. Oaklands Passing Game hasnt been great but they havent been "awful" either, but all in all they havent been doing much at all this entire season, their Offense is predicated off of their Stout Rushing Attack and I'm expecting SF to Limit their RBs to UNDER 120 Yds COMBINED, thus KILLING the Play Action Pass and Forcing 3+ Turnovers out of Oakland. I LOVE San Fran to Catch Win #1 this Week in a BIG BLOWOUT WIN at Home!!!!!! (Laying 2 Units on SF!!)

Very good points.. Thhinking along the lines.. I don't know where he gets "BLOWOUT win by Oakland." As they had a defensive TD in the final minute to take an 8 point lead, but the rest has me convinced..
I really don`t need another capper`s write up from another FORUM to back my pick :shrug:
Good luck today Doc :toast:
Any chance you'll post the other 6 plays???
Love the SF play but would love to validate my card against your thoughts.
Who on the Raiders is worth a shit? besides the DB, (I'm not even going to try and spell his name)
I'm not laying -7 1/2 with the Niners against anyone, including the Raiders. Good luck. I hope it hits for you.
I'm probably going to pass on the game all together. These are two bad teams that could both make stupid mistakes that could blow the cover either way. Either side is very shaky IMO.

Still 45.5 at my book.......
It went over the key number....That`s one of the reasons its sharp....The other reason is...It getting hit close to gametime.
