Monday morning quarterbacking is always so much easier, but, for the life of me, I could not figure what was up in that Cardinals' game. St Louis had just owned Yovani Gallardo in the past and hammered him LY, so my first thoughts for a POD was STL or OV in that one, but STL line dropped some from -130 to -123, and even more puzzling, the OV dropped from 8 to 7 1/2, so I began to second-guess myself. I thought the TEAM TOTAL for STL at OV 3 1/2 (-125) was also very attractive, besides 1h OV 3' and OV 7' game. But, the ball had been bouncing so bad the last couple of days, I just decided to play the two 3-team parlays and hunt elsewhere for my POD. Now, after the Cardinals lead 12-1 thru five innings, I'm feeling silly about being so hesitant on using that total as my POD. Parlays are looking good, though. 1H stl / 1H OV 3' stl / tb+rl --> 1.2*/ 5.3 and 1H stl / 1H OV 3' stl / rsox --> 1.0*/ 5.3*.
I was hoping for a fairly penalty free affair in the hockey game, but multiple power plays already and 1-1 after just one period .. going to have to get very lucky the rest of the way to stay under the 5 total for my POD.
Two of the BoyZ on the Cardinals and TC on Bosox .. hoping we have a big night again on TGIF for the Boyz!
