    One play this week

    FSU -14. Too much talent. Too much speed. Too much hype on the Terps this year. I've said before I'm not much of a college player, but I've actually been clicking a little this year, so I'm going to throw this one out there.

    This week

    Last week: 6-5 +1 (Hitting the KC ML helped pay off the vig on the other games) this week's plays: NYG +12.5 <- I got a piece at 13.5, but that's unavailable now TENN -3 <- makes me feel like such a sucker, but. . . BUFF +5 DET +3 NO +2.5 I really like buff and det. I love what both did in...

    Randle El & a couple of other things

    I don't know if they were talking much about him on the broadcast yesterday (I had the sound off most of the second half), but I would be very happy with this guy if I were a steelers fan. QUICK and FAST. Was getting separation. Caught 6 balls, was it? He went 62nd in the draft, and I think a...

    Beavers

    Not much of a college football player, but I try to follow the Beavers (my alma mater). I see them outclassing Temple tonight. I'm going light because I don't think they have much experience going coast to coast and it is 10.5, but they have great team speed, a QB who was highly recruited (but...

    Why women's tennis is better than mens...

    Here's a photo in case you didn't see what Serena was wearing yesterday. Give me that over that skinny runt Anna, any day.

    Tua-Moorer

    These two heavyweights go saturday night. Moorer 43-2-1 with losses to Foreman and Holyfield. 78" reach. Tua 40-3 with losses to Lewis, Byrd, and Ibeabuchi. 69.5" reach. Of course everyone Tua fights has a better reach. For picking purposes, we'll say Moorer is about 2-1 (with the vig its...

    Tonight's plays

    Jets SU +195. o32 -110. I went less than half unit on these, as I haven't done much pre-season betting before. I just want a little action and am posting to help track my pre-season plays. The Jets play is simply a play based on my feeling that you just can't be a 2-1 dog in the pre-season...

    Midseason experiment

    The pick: Toronto (Halladay vs. Johnson) -165 This is the first year I've tried betting baseball. I jumped right into it with both feet early on, got crushed, then laid off. Also, I haven't been contributing much at Madjack's except for a couple of losers in big fights and a bunch of nonsense...

    Tito retiring from boxing

    Just saw it. He's only 29. He'll probably be back. If not, that's the end of a great fighter. Powerful with both hands. Always put on a great fight. Fought everyone he should have fought, Whitaker, De La Hoya, Reid, Vargas, Hopkins. I think his loss to Hopkins was mainly because he was...

    What's next with the heavyweight division?

    What do you see as possible scenarios for the heavyweights? We have Ruiz/Johnson coming up and I don't know if anything is on McCline's plate. Tua/Moorer is coming up in August. Klitschko (VK from now on) said he wants Lewis next and Lewis has been silent. The HBO guys were saying McCline was...

    early line on Mosley-Forrest.

    I've seen it at -110/-110 at one site and -120/-120 at another. First of all, that 40 cent line (at WSEX) is INSANE and a rotten thing to do to the bettors. Maybe they're trying to avoid a middle in case it moves. I think its cowardly and crooked. Second, I think -110 is a GREAT bet on...

    Minority Report -- question and comments

    Well, since Nolan and Nick both wrote about, I thought I might tackle it, too. Note, spoilers follow. The one detail that keeps coming back to me is the old lady kissing Tom Cruise on the lips. It's basically the only thing in the film that doesn't directly affect the plot one way or...

    Pele on the style of the US

    I copied and pasted this from an article at USA Today. Also in the article he bitches a little about the reffing, particularly the US "goal" against Germany. He says he's never seen WC reffing so bad. Anyway... <quote> Pele and Brazil invented what his countrymen refer to reverently as "the...

    tyson-lewis

    First of all, for discussion and picks about the fight, check "off the wall" later this week. Someone showed up in the Rahman-Holyfield thread last week saying he's been here 2 years and didn't even know off the wall existed or something like that. The main thing I want to address about the...

    mine for friday

    Haven't been posting, but I've been doing all right. I like all the dogs both way tonight. nj +4.5 (1) nj +170 (1) sac +6.5 (1) sac +290 (1) sac u194 (2) not going near the celts o/u. Can't figure that one for crap, but maybe a tad on the OVER. Wish me luck. I'm 0-10 on the bases...

    Holyfield/Rahman (and comment on Gatti fight)

    I'm writing this up today because I'll be out of commission for a few days. Might be around tomorrow. First of all, what a beauty that Gatti fight was. Just two guys slugging it out. That's why when Boxing is at its best its better than any other sport. I laid off it because I liked Gatti but...

    Ichiro

    I caught highlights of some of his activity this weekend on baseball tonight. Here's some of what I saw. Friday night they highlighted a 13 pitch at bat of his where he fouled off 9 pitches, finally drew a walk then promptly stole second and then third. <recap> Ichiro Suzuki: Ball, Ball...

    Your opinion on PTI on ESPN

    This show is a guilty pleasure for me. As per some of the promos, what you got is two bald fat ugly guys just arguing about crap (sports, tv shows, hair) and knowing it. They don't take it too seriously (like The Sports Reporters). They just sit down and have minute-long pointless arguments...

    question about Seattle Slew Spew

    In all seriousness, do they save the sperm of a horse like Seattle Slew for future artificial insemination? Any details? How much do they have? How much do they sell it for? Do they only get paid if the artificial insemination "takes"? Can he still be siring children in 50 years? How many...
