    A couple for tonight

    IU -3 UNC +2.5 Just going to track some college hoops plays here this year. I've been looking at some of these teams so far. IU is basically in a home game. They've played well against much tougher comptetion. I think MD came into the season underrated if you can believe that, but they...

    One more question about a Dalla angle

    A mid-season recommendation of his says to bet against a road favorite coming off a straight up win. Last week he recommended plays against KC, OAK, TENN, and NYG and went 3-1. But, STL was a road fave coming off a straight up win, as was ATL. If those two games are figured in, this angle...

    Nolan's angles -- rewrite and question

    Before he deletes it, I thought I'd simplify these betting angles for people who wish to take advantage. What Nolan wrote is in red 1. Bet the dog when the favored team is favored by more points in the second half than in the game itself. Fine. This is a great angle, and is clearly derived...

    This week's selections

    Someone tell me how a guy who picks about 95% dogs goes 3-5 on a weekend when dogs go 11-5? Especially after hitting my one favorite. I think I was on every dog who didn't cover except GB. I'm getting back to some home dogs this weekend. These all fit nicely into something Nolan has been...

    Rudy Tom and Kermit Washington

    There's this new Feinstein book out about "The Punch". SI excerpted it a few weeks ago and had a bunch of people write in. A lot fo the letters just called Kerm a thug and criticized him for not being as remorseful as they thought he could. Of course, he got a HUGE suspension at the time...

    Horse bettors busted

    The Link By now, you've surely heard about the scam these guys tried to run at the breeder's cup. The Baltimore Sun ran a piece on these guys on Sunday. All three of them were in very fine suits, with very well dressed lawyers, and VERY VERY SMUG looks on their faces. All the quotes were...

    Some early bites for next Sunday

    SD +3 +110 BUFF +3 +105 I had those same lines so I bit early at the better than even money. If you like SD +3.5 -110, or Jets +3.5 -110 any better, wait a while. Both at SIA.

    A perpetualczech play

    In this thread PerpetualCzech indicated that 7.5 to 9.5 point underdogs in games with totals of 35.5 or less, only won 23 of 36 games that he looked into. These stats point towards value on CARO +320 this weekend. This scenario was present in week 1 where HOU and DET fell into this category...

    A-Rod Gold Glove -- an outrage.

    I'll get right to the point. This year Mike Bordick set the all time major league record for consecutive chances without an error, and consecutive games without an error (both streaks still alive). Funny, on Sportscenter you didn't see any "countdowns" to the record. They were too busy showing...

    Conspiracy theory II -- The Sharpie Incident

    So, Sharpie is rolling out commercials 4 weeks later with the coach taking the Sharpies away from his guys. They have the camera right on Owens during the whole Sharpie thing. They don't even fine him for it. It's becomes a big incident and a big joke, replayed a thousand times. Even that...

    Conspiracy theory I. -- The Sharpe Incident

    Conspiracy theory I. -- The Sharpe Incident Did you think that injury to Sharpe looked at least a bit intentional? It looked like Romanowski locked Sharpe's arm against his body and just dropped his weight on it. I saw it when he went down and I thought it was broken when they showed a shot...

    Does Boyd gaming support poker?

    With the new pro-gambling Maryland governor, it looks like the tracks will get their slots and maybe even casinos. Boyd Gaming is involved, I've heard. Is this a "pro-poker" company? I believe they own the Stardust which has minimal poker action if I'm not mistaken. Thanks.

    Any XM radio subscribers?

    If so, I have a question. Let's say I go spend $300 for an XM radio receiver. What happens if XM radio raises their subscription fees to $50/month? If I cancel, then I'm stuck with this $300 receiver that receives nothing. Right? Or, are there other satellite radio providers that can be...

    Alphabet soup and a good day for boxing

    Barrera/tapia demonstrates that HBO will just put together fights that people want to see regardless of belts. I came in right before the first fight on saturday and they were talking to fighters about fighting without belts being on the line and what the belts really mean. I missed most of...

    A small experiment

    Just thought I'd post a new "technique" I'm going to track. I set my own lines every week. At bestbettor, I'm tracking how those lines would do if I played them depending on their difference from the real lines. For example, I had NE listed as a 1.5 pt dog. Since they're getting 2.5, NE is the...

    Maryland Injury

    Summary of article in "The Sun". Maryland is without their NT Feldheim for the season. He's key to the defense, keeping blockers off inside LB EJ Henderson. His replacement played all right filling in at Duke last weekend. Just something to keep in mind if you hadn't seen it.
