Spreadsheet early picks - week 12

[Jimboski]

First off;
MKATZPP: Sorry I didn't reply to your post in my "Spreadsheet - week 11" post; I just didn't want to add another reply (Nadal's red shirt was making me dizzy. LOL) to that thread and didn't want to shoot that thang to the top of the listing again. Bottom line is "YOU'RE WELCOME, mkatzpp".

Sorry, but here I go again just like last week :violin: ... . . First game I fed the $$ was the Ball St. Weds. game and it came up with a "STRONG" selection --> N. Illi to cover. Surely, I ain't counting it. Tellyas, if you watched the whole game like I did, maybe you'll agree that IMO the SS woulda deserved a PLUS 1 IF IT PICKED Ball St. . Did I play it's STRONG play? - OF COURSE NOT cause I'm always a little leery about them weekday games ESP when they're lower level A-1 teams and I figured I'd find plenty more "STRONG $$ picks". Hmm.... that didn't happen.

Here's the deal with this week's picks - I fed it well over 20 games and surprisingly, ONLY 6 top plays came out of it. The really good news (I hope) is that several got a 'EXTREMELY STRONG" rating, even the lower rated couple ON THIS LIST got a pretty high "SOLID" rating. And that rating is always good enough to play and POST on the list I make.

Here ya go.....

N. Illi: not counted WIENER

Cinn -4 (vs. Rutgers} E.S. (dat means Extremely Strong)

Pitt -1: ES This is one of two teams I got on my shit list. You know, you playem and they fail, you fadem and the bastages cover. STILL, this one got such a high rating that I'm gonna take a shot with them Panthers.

Auburn -4: Oh yeeeah!

Houston +15.5: May be near the bottom of this list asfaras rating goes, but "VERY SOLID" is just fine by me.

Texas St. +7.5: WTF? :0039. SHEET, you gotta have PLENTY of faith in the $$ to go along with this game. I do.

Man, only 5 games to score for this week. If you go by how these 5 are rated, you'd think it'll go 5/0 but that's prob. wishful thinking.

I am gonna run several more with hope of, at least, adding one mo.

G.L.

Let's try something

Let's try something

Here's my chance to post a $$ play that did start already (sorry) BUT, there's plenty of time to go cause RIGHT now it's in the middle of the 3rd quarter... And It's an interesting one too.

"Solid" play that I just plain left off the list, PURPOSELY. First time I did that too. I couldn't bare to write that pick down. ... and NO, i didn't bet this game either way.


$$ for whatever reason, picks Ga. Tech +10.5 to cover vs. Clemson

OK, mid 3rd quarter, score is NOW Clemson up 41 to 17.

NOW, let's see what happens.

EDITED - JUST RE - CHECHED THE SCORE. Is 79 pts. high enough for ya, Wild Bill?

Gonna tail the sheet this week with Cincy, Pitt, and Auburn. Some of those lines moved a bit?

Cincy and Pitt are right around Pick/ems now- so all they gots to do is win the game. Easy Money! :0074


Good Luck fellas!!

79 points too high? LOL, nah... I got it at 62 when it opened, it's moved all the way to 64 1/2 now... Ay carumba. I don't see either "D" stopping the others' "O" Jimbo, if you got 79 as the number, we are solid my friend!!

GL on Saturday!!

:toast:

GJ, ALL the plays are highly rated so you/me should (?) be alright. Pitt and Cincy are two that I really like. I ALWAYS post the lines that were up when I fed the $$ . Usually, they're the opening lines. For my parlays (2,3, or 4 teamers) I always do a little shaving to get the no. off the KEY nos. For my straight, single plays, I accept the line the way it is IF I think it's fair and IF it ain't I just skip that game. OR.. shave it and shove into a parlay. .
GOOD LUCK, G.J.

Wild Bill, I didn't play the O/U for that Clemson game and when I saw 79 pts. scored, I KNEW that you had that baby picked out right. :0074 NICE going.

PD1, I'm really glad that you always like to check out the $$ picks. I HOPE it has helped and NOT hurt ya; I've been VERY lucky plucking out wieners from the listing.

I ran 4 more games and FINALLY came up with another $olid play.

Adding

Baylor - 27.5

I normally don't run the sheet when there's a VERY dominant team involved cause it sometimes goes BANANAS over it. However, for this game, the nos. it coughed up look good/creditable to warrant a play on the BEARS. I made it so that it TRiES (it IS much better at predicting which team should cover than predicting the spread) to predict a real spread for each game. It's got it at -35 for this game. :scared

GL everybody.

Thought I'd stop in to see if anybody was around and update the where this thing is at.

Wieners --> Auburn, Cinncy

Losah ---- those FLUCKIN Panthers. That team just burns me up, the season before last I wrote in my notes in BIG letters,"DON'T EVER PLAY ANY GAME THAT PITTSBURGH IS IN AGAIN !". I broke that rule one time last season and paid the price for doing so and now, today, AGAIN they ruin a live 3 teamer I had going. Playem and they fail, fadem and they cover.. EVERY stinkin time and that goes for my trusty $$ as well.

Pending teams are holding up so far, Baylor is in deep poopies, but you know about Baylor.

Oh, how bout them Auburn Tigers? Remember, EXCEPT FOR FREAKIN PITT, it hears all, sees all, predicts all.

Hope the Sheet holds on for the rest of the day and Good Luck, y'awl.

Wrap up time

Wrap up time

This week's record is 4-2, not counting the N. Illi wiener. Congrats to the $$ for another positive week.

For me, this was the first week that I did not cash a single parlay, played 3 of them. If Cinn. AND Pitt woulda both lost I would NOT have cashed a single play. The Bearcat win actually put me ahead (not by much for the day though) cause it was my side, single play which gets bet much heavier than any of the parlays. Pitt, cause it was my other bestest for the day, got played in 2 of the parlays and killed a real nice 3 teamer. IF they woulda won, it woulda been a VERY nice day for me.

Giambi-Juice, if the three you mentioned were your only plays for Sat., congrats. You just may be on to something when you wrote that just playing EACH one of the $$ picks might be the way to go. That woulda worked out better for me this week ESP since I knew about the N. Illi play days before that game got played. It sure as hell woulda worked out just fine if anybody (like ME, f'rinstance) woulda started doing that since the first week I started posting/playing it's picks. My backaroo tells me that all is GREAT so far but I KNOW that Lady Luck had as much to do with that as the SpreadSheet. Well, maybe almost as much . I'm really disappointed that I didn't get a cent from what she did for all the SHEET/Auburn backers.

Hope to communicate with yas next week. G.L. NFLing.

Thanks Jimbo. Yes the sheet helped me out. Instead of losing a boatload of money yesterday, I only lost a few bucks. I went 2/3 on sheets picks and added 3 personal favorites of my own which all lost. All my losers were close and could have gone either way! But bottom line is they were all losers!! :facepalm: (Ducks, ASU, and NW/Mich over)

Thanks. And Go Houston Texans!! Time to get back NCAA losses! :mj07:

Good Luck to all,
