Be careful on Clemson 2nd half
- Thread starter shamrock
- Start date
That's what I was thinking on the 2H line.
I saw it as LSU - 0.5, and shy'd away from any further action!
Shamrock, I do got a question for U..... Who is that boxer on your avatar???
He looks like he can kick some ass!!!!

Exactly was my point. LSU won off the board -4? They had an 11 point lead at halftime and were still, that's almost 3 times the spread covered, and they were -.5 a favorite for the 2nd half. In other words, they are begging for Clemson money at +.5 the boxer in the photo is Mickey Ward, a close personal friend. He had 3 epic fights in the 147 pound weight class with Arturo Gatti, 2 of which were called fights of the year. Ward was also a fighter of the year. A movie about him was made called the fighter with Christian Bale and Mark Wahlberg.
That's right..... I recall the trilogy of their EPIC fights w Gatti!!
Mickey was one of the greats and the movie was well made!!!
Gosh.... Maybe I watch it again, soon!!!
Also, on top of that a friend of yours......... COOL!!!
Continued best of luck Shamrock!!!
I enjoy reading your contributions to the board!!! :0008:0008:0008:toast:
Micky Ward's brother Dickie, who is portrayed in the movie, was the 1st man to put Sugar Ray Leonard down as a professional. Probably a better fighter than his little brother, but got caught up in drugs and did time in the Walpole State pen. He actually started a bar fight, and the Lowell, police ended up breaking Micky's hand in several places, smashing it on the bar with night sticks. He retired for several years and lost a lot of the power in his right hand which as an amateur and early pro-was his money hand. He developed that double left that got him back in contention. Great guy. Tab tab
