    Dang

    I am not able to get in front of a TV and I am following my Blues over play on the internet. Anyone see Modano's penalty shot? What happened?

    The Family Guy

    I received the season 1 & 2 boxed set for Christmas and it is probably the best present I got all year. The show didn't get a huge audience when it aired but the episodes are hilarious. I'd recommend it to anyone with a taste for slapstick and subversive humor in a cartoon.

    FOX "reality" gambling show

    The concept sounds like a thinly-veiled advertisment for the Nugget, but there is a link to an application that people who want some low level fame can fill out. http://www.fox.com/casino

    NHL on MLK

    I added one play today after seeing the line put up on the Calgary vs. Anaheim game... ANAHEIM -1/2 +100 over Calgary 220/220 Basically this is going with a team that looks to be heating up against a team that looks to be cooling off. That goes double for their goaltenders.

    Aggressive vs. Conservative gambling

    I was flipping channels today and saw WSOP champ Chris Moneymaker saying that he tends to play aggressive when his chip stack gets low and more conservative when he is in the lead. This strategy falls in opposition to the strategy that most sports bettors use. Usually I hear people say that...

    With two weeks left, here are the stats: ND: +289.73, 21 picks remaining yyz: +154.51, 18 picks remaining http://www.bestbettor.com/playerlist.php?sortby=&sortfield=&offset=&search=SBpartychallenge It's going to be quite the derby. I still believe it will take at least +1000 to win this thing.

    I normally don't bet NFL, but....

    today seems set up for a day where the chalk rolls. We haven't seen a Super Bowl featuring two teams that won at home in the Conference Championships since 1997 (Super Bowl XXXI).

    It's Friday I'm in love

    What a great handicapping tool Best Bettor is

    I am no expert at reading line movement, but I have to say that as far as free sites go, Best Bettor is one of my top two Jim Feist's site being the other. It is just so valuable to be able to see line histories for all of these books in detail. Thanks to all of those responsible for that site.

    Off to a rip roaring start

    Both yyz and I are in the red already after the second day in the Super Bowl Party Challenge. I am still going to go out on a limb and predict four figure profits for both men by the end of the month.

    Gosh darn Best Bettor

    I have to start finishing my handicapping earlier. This is the second time today I've been locked out of making a play in my contest with yyz because Best Bettor takes their lines down at the top or bottom of the hour. In this case I must have barely missed it. Darn.

    I am cancelling my plan

    I called up CRIS today and inquired about their free policy and indeed it is true that moneylines cannot be part of a Free Play parlay. I went back over the odds and found that I could play a four team parlay using side & total from two different games. That is a four team parlay, however, and...

    Charity for beantownjim

    Jim, I know you're getting your arse handed to you lately so I decided to be charitable and give you one on the house. Play under 5.5 in Detroit (bet all that you want ;)) and you'll have enough money left over to lose it back on the Patsies this Sunday. If that fails just look at the Super...

    Super Bowl Party Challenge

    In our continuing effort to make asses of ourselves, yyz and I have decided to have a Super Bowl Party Challenge leading up to the big party. When the idea began, yyz challenged me to a $50 wager, and I responded with a challenge of the loser singing the Super Bowl Shuffle in front of the...

    Nba

    I think Jack might be gone for the weekend, so here is what I wrote up for my page today. ORLANDO -5 1/2 over Washington 330/300 Washington continues to be unable to defend. They give up a very high shooting percentage. Though Orlando is hardly a good team, their shooting percentage numbers...

    Adding to my page...

    One more play for tonight. Good luck, all. Phoenix vs. WASHINGTON Over 5 -135 220/163 As I wrote on my page, Washington's poor defense and Phoenix' efficient offense should combine to produce goals for the Coyotes. At 5, this total is relatively low given Washington's bad defense and good...

    Historically, this is a weekend for favorites...

    Home teams (favorites) generally dominate this weekend and for good reason. They have an extra week of rest, they are playing at home and they are generally the better team. Add to that the fact that the public often becomes wrapped up in a good performance by a team one week earlier (Jets...

    I wish I was booking his action.

    Bill Simmons, an avid pro wrestling and sports gambling fan who writes a column for Page 2 on ESPN.com, put up a link in his latest column to 13 betting strategies for the NFL postseason that he & a friend came up with two years ago. Here is the link...

    Tracking my wagering year

    Bestbettor is one of the better handicapping tools around for me, so I've decided to expand my usage of it for 2004. I am going to track as many plays as possible on Best Bettor(www.bestbettor.com) this year. Now, of course mirrormy plays on Best Bettor won't exactly match my actual results...
