    Early leans

    I like a couple games quite a bit this week: OAK -3 ZONA +3 I liked MIA at 4.5. Still do at 4, but not a play yet. I havent' seen the ML on ZONA, but if its +140 or better, I'm there. Also looking at Minny, Chi, Buff. ZONA was +3 at +100, so I bit already. Waiting on some of the doggie...

    Barrera is the pick.

    You would have to beat me on the head with a 2x4 to get me off this pick. Played Barrera. $100 -> $28. Tapia is a respectable fighter. His only two professional losses were to Ayala. But he easily could have lost that last one, too where he got out-worked (by the man with the longer reach...

    Pencilling in (Week 8)

    I suppose I should say "inking in". I've already played these first three because I'm worried about the ML's dropping and the 10.5 going up, but don't want to hand them out as recommendations (to all my followers :lol: :lol: ) just yet. Jax -10.5 (-115) KC +145 DEN +140 Slight leans: DET...

    Is scoring falling off?

    After averaging somewhere up around 46 ppg early in the season, teams averaged 43 ppg last weekend and only about 40 ppg this weekend. UNDERS were 9-5 this week with every team previously undefeated on OVERs going UNDER, except New Orleans. Correct me if I'm wrong. For starters, the early...

    Series Plays

    Angels -120 (1.2 -> 1) MVP: Kent (.5 -> 4.5) MVP: Erstad (.5 -> 6) ------ All played @ SIA GLTA. Enjoy the series. I'm looking forward to it. I really dig this Angels team though the Thundersticks drive me crazy. Let's hope they never make it to some of our "Hallowed Halls" on the east coast...

    4 teams undefeated O/U

    Care to take any guesses what four teams have gone over every week they played? | | \/ NO (6-0) Buff (6-0) Det (5-0) PHI (4-0-1) I think the Philly tie is for the Washington game, but that was actually higher at a lot of places, making it an under. Not special info or anything -- just...

    Pencilling in (Week 7)

    Year: 25-19 +5.13 Pencilling in: KC +2.5 PHI -3.5 DET +3 NO -2 BUFF +4 If I can get ML's in the +155 range, I'll probably play KC and DET SU. The first three, I'm almost sure I'll play. I don't see those lines moving against me, so I'm holding out, giving them a bit more though. There are...

    Washburn -170

    0-1 here in the playoffs. I liked washburn in the opener against the yanks. I like him again tonight. 3-0 against the twins this year whereas Milton is 1-2 against the angels. Milton got wrecked in one game. Angels are playing well at home, and I just think they're a better team than the...

    Pencilling in

    Det +4.5 JAX -2 SEA (+160) STL +7.5 STL (+240) CIN +7 --- I'm not seeing much I like actually. I didn't feel that good last week and should have played fewer. I might just get on 1 or 2 games this week.

    RJJ to fight "The Quiet Man"

    I don't even know how to look at that one. A good big man always beats a good smaller man. Does a pretty good big man always beat an awesome smaller man? I just read a blurb at SIA about it. Ruiz might come in at 235, with RJJ around 195. You gotta figure Jones is about to enter a HELLISH...

    An "instructive" line this week.

    I'm not on this one yet, but I think it's a very interesting game "handicapping" wise. STL is a 7 point underdog this week (7.5 at SIA). So far this year, they've been a favorite at DEN and TB and a double digit favorite at home against NYG and DALL. I don't recall ever seeing a turn around...

    Angels +130

    I'll give the lefty in Yankee Stadium a shot at +130. They've played better ball over the second half, have a quality closer, and a hell of a starter going. Give me the +130. Nothing more to it than that. GL

    Week 5 -- Pencilling in

    ATL +2.5 (@SIA +1.5 at others) JAX +3 STL +7 CLE -7.5 BUFF +3 NYJ +3 NE +2.5 I really thought that CLE line would be around 5 and I was going to pounce. I might still grab some at 7.5, but that's just a lean right now. I was surprised at how high it was. Seeing that ATL low at other places, I...

    MN Notes...and briefly on the "No Fun League"

    I do love seeing a game come in that went totally against so many peoples pre-conceived notions. I have a rule that I won't play a dog if I don't think they have a legit shot at winning. Often, I play them ML and with the points. last night I didn't think b-mo had that shot so I stayed away...

    A few NFL comments & Nolan and Nick's columns

    Some of these thoughts came to me after reading Nick's & Nolan's columns, so that's why there's some of that flavor to them. --Nick says the Rams are not done. They might not be out of the picture as far as the playoffs go, but all I care about is that they're still a good fade. I went...

    Several this week

    Iowa State (PK). College (posted) 2-0 +1.5 units. I don't want to jinx myself because so far I've had a good year betting VERY few games (1-2) a weekbut here are 3 more I'm probably playing. Oregon State +3 (.5) Miami (OH) -10 (.5) Kentucky +20 (1) I've been "fortunate" enough not...

    Den -7.5 <- might drop. i'll wait. KC +3 <- I think it might go up. I'll wait. Det +8 Sea -3 <- get it now Cle +6 <- get it now. buff -3 sd +3 They won't all make the cut.

    UFC, DLH fight, and sports (long)

    I watched a tape of the DLH-Vargas fight after watching that football game last night. It really makes it sink in how other sports have pretty arbitrary rules that remove people from actually just going out and trying to bash another guy until he can't get up. It reminded me of why I like the...

    Nolan's Column today

    Cut & pasted. Hope you don't mind: 1. Gutless announcers that won't take a stand on a point of controversy. **completely annoying. Particularly the baseball announcers who you have to listen to all season long. All this summer, The Oriole's Palmer and Reghi wouldn't say a thing about...
