    Why Arizona Will Win

    1. Coaching -- not saying the coaching is by any means superior on the Arizona sideline. In fact, Tomlin is an excellent coach. Yes, we all know the adage "defense wins championships", however, the fact that Arizona staff once roamed the Pitt sideline and has intimate knowledge of their...

    should be an easy night for Mosley

    Sugar Shane is the one who is getting up there in years (34 to Vargas' 28) but you wouldn't know it by their last few fights. Vargas hit the wall with the De La Hoya fight -- who knows what impact the steroids had if any, but it's been downhill since. From today's LA Times... "Vargas, who...

    Carolina prop

    love this one... :firing: Goings over 66.5 yards rushing -115 I think I would play it even if the over/under were 80 yards. Seattle will key on stopping Smith...at least they should I'd like to see a prop with both RB's...I think Goings will get more yardage than Alexander.

    Does Jones have anything left?

    Seems like Tarver is the closest thing to easy money in awhile at only -185. I would have thought this line would be closer to -400. Whle he's not quite a shot fighter, Jones seems to have lost more than a step in the last 2 years. Meanwhile Tarver is pretty much in his prime and didn't have...

    2 Week 1 teasers

    played earlier this week... NE - 1.5 vs. Oak. Pitt - 1 vs. Tenn. Pitt - 1 vs. Tenn. Car. pk vs. NO taking the home teams who should all make the playoffs NE: Not much needs to be said about the Patriots domination -- especially in Foxboro. Admittedly the Raiders should be vastly improved on...

    any chance for Gatti this weekend?

    not likely, I know. Since Mayweather has been content to fight like James Toney of late (stationary but still ellusive), I figure Gatti's only shot comes with a series of good exchanges. I haven't seen a line on Gatti by KO yet, but if it's above 5-1, I'll probably make a small play...

    Ruiz still champion despite loss

    I assume Ruiz bettors won't get a refund though article from Max Boxing... Team Ruiz was formally notified today by the New York State Athletic Commission that the April 30th World Boxing Association heavyweight championship fight between defending champion John "The Quietman" Ruiz and...

    boxing/superbowl prop

    I normally don't play these, but wanted to get some opinions on this prop: Who will have more... Brian Westbrook rushing attempts -1.5 Spinks/Judah completed rounds +1.5 seems like a pretty good play on Westbrook, since he averages around 14 rushing attempts a game.

    Cal

    Look for the Golden Bears to roll in tonight's game. Texas Tech has shown that they can pile up the points, but not against teams with strong defenses. Cal is arguably one of the top 3 teams in their nation with their only loss coming from top ranked USC in a game that Cal dominated in time of...

    Tarver vs. Johnson

    Going with the guy with skills vs. the banger. Tarver should be able to keep Johnson at bay by popping the jab and then ultimately drop him in the later rounds. Johnson is well conditioned and has a decent chin, so he is content to fight a phone booth style fight...the only problem is, Johnson...

    1st half play

    Minny + 4 (of course I'm really hoping the Vikes get the ball first) parlay Minny +4/under 29

    ASU...

    will likely win outright against USC this weekend. SC is coming off an emotional, hard fought win over Cal -- in which their were lucky to get the "W". Had Cal not coughed up the ball on a few occasions, the outcome would have been different. Plus, the Trojans keep piling up injuries --...

    Week 4

    Tenn - 3 Okay, so San Diego has managed to avoid going 0-3 and even looked respectable at times. I still believe they will finish in the AFC basement this year. The Titans are more than a little banged up, but they can't afford to drop this game. McNair WILL play for the Titans, but since...

    NFL Week 1

    :SIB top play -- Texans -4.5 Look for the other team from Texas to be much improved this year as they now have a solid foundation in place with Domanick Davis running the ball and Andre Johnson making plays. QB Carr has looked perfect in the preseason and may raise the level of his game this...

    UCLA

    Look for the Bruins to come out of the gate with a win. UCLA has always started the season playing their best football -- they just have trouble finishing that way. This team should be able to put up some serious points this season. Drew Olson starts at QB without having to look over his...

    what is the better value?

    Since I have detroit to win the series at +300, I was thinking of hedging my bet. If I were to take LA to win the series now, I would get +350 However, would it simply be better to plan to bet Lakers on the moneyline 3 games in a row? $100 on the future bet would yield $350 $100 on game 5 at...

    Sunday

    After the spanking Detroit laid on the Lakers last game, I have to think that this next game will be close. If the Pistons play with the same tenacity, they should be able to come away with another win. That said, I'm liking this teaser... Lakers +5.5 over 164

    Jones-Tarver II

    Been away from the site for awhile...once football season is over, I usually try to close my account. Anyway, big fights have been somewhat lacking -- with the exception of the Pacquiano-Marquez fight (looking forward to the rematch). I'm still debating on whether or not to order the...

    Final Plays for SB

    Carolina +7.5 (bought half point) -- very Large Carolina +3.5 = +140 -- medium play Carolina ML = +190 -- small play Belichek is the ultimate chess master, but Carolina's offense is so simple, it won't matter for this game. Carolina's whole gameplan will be to get Brady out of rhythm by...

    beware the underdog...

    Since the 1996 Super Bowl, only two favorites have covered -- Denver in 1999 and Baltimore in 2001. :eek:
