    Turkey Week

    Ravens are the gift that keep on giving. I put this 2-team tease I like a lot in this morning: Cowboys -.5 Raiders +17.5 I will use the Raiders a few ways as long as the line stays at 10.5. Yes, they are not a good team, but I simply do not see how the Ravens cover this number with their...

    Week 9 Play

    I rarely post anything in the NFL, but I am taking Pittsburgh +3.5 -120 This game is the Ravens season for them after playing terrible football this weekend in Carolina and losing a game they should have won the week before to the Saints. The only way to salvage their season is to win the...

    World Series

    I will admit that I am not much of a baseball bettor. The day to day grind is just too much for me in the regular season. I do dabble in the playoffs and have done relatively well this year. This means that I have watched a decent amount of baseball, though I rarely ever watch a whole game...

    Sorry, but Vrabel

    is an idiot. I know it is easy to say after the fact but I was yelling it right away. You are 3-3 and in first place. The job of a head coach is always to put your team in the best position to win. Mike Vrabel did not do that. Not to mention that the final play call was terrible. He got...

    Caps

    Did well through the playoffs last year, so I will post some Caps games in this thread. I typically do not pay a lot of attention to hockey until January but I will pick some select games before then. Opening night is Wednesday. Many are predicting a bit of a let down for the Caps after their...

    Football or Futbol

    NFL is starting to look like European Futbol. I just watch Roethlisbeger take a dive for a 15 yard penalty. He should have been given a yellow card instead. The NFL is such a shell of its former self it is truly sad. They have ruined a great game. And what the hell has happened to the once...

    Navy/MD

    I will focus on these two teams in this thread this year as they are the teams I follow closely. I was really hoping that Hawaii's great showing on the road last night would help Navy lay a much lower number than first anticipated. Well, maybe it is lower, but -16.5 is a little steep. Not...

    2018-19 Season

    All plays and thoughts will be in this thread going forward. I will also comment some in Kid's thread as we move forward. Feel free to chime in as you want. I think the English season starts too soon and I think this will be even more apparent in a WC year. It usually takes a few weeks for...

    Hall of Fame

    Have to go with the Ravens -2.5 in this one. I like their QB rotation better. While it has not been announced yet, my guess is that RGIII will start and play most of the first half, then Jackson through the 3rd and Woodrum gets the 4th. Woodrum is not that bad and will end up somewhere if not...

    Nats?

    Someone please explain to me why the Nats remain big favorites at home against good teams. Their home record is pathetic especially against teams over .500. Last night they were a ridiculous -180 and now -140 with Gonzalez pitching who has been terrible. I do not play a lot of baseball, but I...

    ALL STAR PLAYS

    Not a big fan of the all star game but do think it offers some decent value bets. Just some small plays to make it interesting. The first inning is traditionally the highest scoring scoring inning and we have stacked lineups against pitchers that give up home runs. A first inning score YES at...

    Post WC Plays

    Will use this thread to post some very small plays/thoughts on games up until the major European leagues get started. This will include some CL and Euro qualifiers and all these international cup games. All of these are tough to cap and are very small plays just for some degenerate action...

    WORLD CUP 2018

    New thread for the World Cup. I will post a few thoughts, etc. to start and then post all my plays in this thread. I will also post the plays I have already made shortly. I will post my thoughts on who I think will win and some group winners, but please feel free to ask any questions about...

    Draft

    Couple of props to make it interesting: Rbs Un 1.5 +195 - It is simply a question of whether Michel or Juice goes late in the 1st round or not. Think we are getting paid good odds that both fall into the second round and I doubt anyone trades up into the first for them. B. Chubb Un 4.5 -130 -...

    Capitals

    I know they have a bad playoff history, but they are only -130 in the Series. I am not a big Series player but there is too much value in this line for me to pass up. Also, with a line this small, you will usually have an opportunity to get you money back if is not looking good. I think...

    St. Louis

    I don't play much hockey, but the Caps won at Pitt last night to clinch the division and now travel to St. Louis who is fighting for their playoff lives. Just do not see how the Caps are focused for this one. Maybe this looks too easy, but I will take St. Louis in regulation at Even money.

    KISS - Part 3

    I do not think I have ever been more disinterested in this weekend than I am this year. Been saying that the NFL is in decline for a while and this year really proves it. Part of me wants to see a Jax/Philly Super Bowl as it will likely be the least watched Super Bowl in a very long time...

    KISS Part 2

    The KISS theory worked great, 4-0, for the first round, so I am going to stick to it for Round 2. These match ups are very hard to ignore: Ryan vs Foles Brady vs Mariotta Roethlisberger vs Bortles Brees vs Keenum Not sure I have every seen such a disparity at the QB position in all 4 games...

    FCS FINAL

    Easy to forget about this game as there is a lot going on (plus the ridiculous break between the semi finals and the finals). I am on JMU and the ML but I am waiting to play the game as I think this line may move even higher. These games do not typically start getting a lot of action until...

    KISS

    I do not play much in the NFL as I really do not enjoy watching the game as much as I used to. But since I am stuck in the house in a blizzard, might as well make some picks. Will call this the KISS weekend. Keep It Simple Stupid. This has mostly been a year of parody in the NFL as no team...
