    Shrimp's Picks

    Last week. 0-2 Season 7-7, about even money wise. Couple of nice bye teams here. Lines from SIA CIN +2.5 1->1.1 Boller still hasn't been great. They got the road win last week against a pretty week team. Second week on the road against a bye team who has played pretty well at times. I think...

    Shrimp's Picks

    Two weeks ago, 2-0 +2.7 units (thx to the hit on cinci over cle) Season : 7-5 +2.5 (roughly) This week (lines are crrent at SIA): Jax +4.5 (1->1) I know it looks like a simple contrarian on the surface but JAX ain't as bad as they've seemed. They have losses to CARO and BUFF. They had CARO on...

    Tally picks

    Craven top 3 @ 7-1 (He's running an RCR engine which jsut keep doing better and better at the plate tracks.) Junior to win 7-2. Look. If I'm getting 7-2 on a guy who has won 4 consectutive races here, I'm just not staying off it. Maybe he's a little banged up but his car just looks too good at...

    Shrimp's Picks

    2-0 last week. 5-5 on the year. Pretty close to even as some of the bets have been "vigless". A few great prices at SIA today. Let's go with CIN SU (1 -> 1.7) TENN +3 (1->1.1) Leans. . . ATL/CARO o36 (1.1 -> 1) (a much iffier bet than ATL-TB last week) I like KC giving up the points at...

    Shrimp's Picks

    1-3 last week. 3-5 on the year. This week, I'm only making two plays and one is a total. TB/ATL ov 35.5 (1.1->1). In case you hadn't noticed, ATL is last in the league in total defense. Not so bad in points scored, but that had to do a lot with the mistakes quincy carter made against them in...

    It's finally here. I got my Budweiser, some beef jerky and pistachio nuts. I told the old lady, "see you in January, hon." Bets made with current lines at SIA. NYG ML +110 CLE +1.5 +105 :eek: DALL -2.5 -110 DET -4.5 (-110) Great price on that cleveland game, man. I was planning on playing it...

    Matchups

    Redfish -- From my other thread -- I'm actually looking to go against Elliot today. This track uses a lot of left foot and I think he breaks down as the race goes along. Thing is, the only bet I could find was Jarret -200 over Elliot, so that's a no play for me. Small play on Newman over...

    Pocono

    Labonte top 3 +140. Just can't go against the hot streak. Newman to win @ 10-1 Busch top 3 +160 Labonte is just having too good a year. He also has several good races at pocono. Lines still too short on J.Gordon at 8-1 but I really like how he's racing this year. GL.

    Music recommendation....(for you texas guys)

    Ray Wylie Hubbard, "Growl". He's from Austin, I believe. He's got Gurf morlix working on this album who was the brains behind Lucinda Williams' "Car Wheels on a Gravel Road". To categorize, I'd say "alt-country". No Garth Brooks gay-ass bullshit on this. He's got a great tune on it...

    Vijay's a chickenshit

    I don't buy this "I told my wife I'd take a tournament off if I won" stuff for a bit. He's a chickenshit, plain and simple. You ever seen a guy who challenges another guy to a fight and then stands there going, "throw the first punch" when they get the jackets off. We got a million...

    Robert Stack died

    I always liked him. Very funny in "1941" . Of course he'll be remembered for "Americas Most Wanted" which he started as a personal crusade, IIRC, after losing a son. According to IMDB.com the last project he was on was called "Butt Ugly Martians". Gotta love a guy who doesn't take himself...

    Anyone from Raleigh, NC?

    I'll be in town this saturday and I'm looking for a good place to watch "The Winston" on saturday night. No chains or anything. Just a regular laid back place where I can get burger/beer/whiskey. We're staying near the Crabtree Mall so I'm looking for a place that's probably a reasonable...
