    boxing 5/18

    I don't typically bet on heavy favorites (although I took Trinidad last week) but I think there is some value in taking Arturo Gatti at -220 vs. Mickey Ward this weekend. At 35, Ward is a tenacious but none too threatening opponent who will have a long night ahead of him against the hard...

    Fix

    Boxing + politics = fixed fights :nono: No way Maywether won that fight by such a large margin. The punchstat proved Castillo landed more punches and definitely harder punches. Ultimately, it was in HBO's best interest to have Floyd win. Too bad -- especially for the bettors.

    1st Quarter line

    Taking St. Loiuis -3 (-115) big The Rams tend to get out of the gate early in the first quarter. I don't expect the Pats to score more than a field goal in the early going unless they are able to force some turnovers. I'm sure the Rams will be wary of the kick returners in the wake of the...

    Brady has high ankle sprain

    This is from the L.A. Times today and confirms what I heard the other day.... By SAM FARMER, TIMES STAFF WRITER NEW ORLEANS -- Mum's the word with Bill Belichick. The New England Patriot coach declined to name a starting quarterback for the Super Bowl and dodged the question when asked if he...

    teaser picks

    I'm taking the following teasers: TB +9.5 the cold weather seems to be the one big advantage Philly has in this game and from what I hear, it won't be all that cold. Bucs have come up huge in the big games this year (Green Bay, St. Louis, Baltimore) and I look for them to control time of...

    Holyfield-Ruiz fight

    In my opinion, there is only one play on this fight. Will the fight go the full 12 rounds? YES

    Pittsburgh wheel

    Pittsburgh +3 is an early Christmas present for the team that dominated the first matchup yet lost the game. Look for another defensive battle but Pitt is more balanced. This line is off by a few. Should probably be a pickem at the very least. (brings back memories of Browns +8 vs. Ravens)...

    Teasers for the week

    I've been lucky with the teasers so far this year (knock wood). Here's some for Week 10: Cleveland +14 -- absolutely love this line; may be the wheel for all other teasers Washington +14.5 -- a bye week + a banged up Broncos squad = cover the spread San Diego +15 -- the Chargers always play...

    Home dogs + tenacious D

    I'll be taking advantage of the following lines this week: Chi +2.5 and Cle +3. Since I'm partial to teasers I'll most likely make a big play on this as Chi +8.5 and Cle +9. It seems to me that the line on Chicago-Green Bay should be inverted (Chi -2.5). According to the current line, GB would...

    A week for teasers!

    I have followed these posts for awhile and gained some vaulable insight, so I thought I'd stick in my two cents... None of these games (with exception of Cincy) seems strong on their own but I'm big on the following: Cin + 9 (Dillon's ready to explode; Det. passing game all on Morton) SD - 1 (SD...
