Turkey Day Plays

[shawnrobert]

Days like this make me think about gambling. Shouldn't I be thankful enough that I have my health, a job, a place to live, and a loving family? Wouldn't my time and money be better served doing something else? Is it selfish for me to bet on sports games? This is something that I struggle with daily, and probably will for the rest of my life, whether I am winning or losing. The thing of it is, I don't know if anyone else feels this, but when I am on the winning side of a bet the feeling I get is hard to duplicate. I guess in the end that trumps everything else, at least for the meantime. So anyway one thing I am very grateful for is this web site, and the very cool people that post their plays here. I hope everyone has a good holiday and gets to spend some time with their friends and families. It seems trivial but for what it's worth here is what I am playing in the early game:

GB -3 (-125)

I can give a million reasons why they should cover, but this is the NFL and anything can happen. I will say this though, the Lions lack of a rushing attack combined with a weak pass defense iand a Pack team that has been winning ATS on the road is why I like the Packers in this spot. GL everyone!

Mucho to be thankful for!! A Packer cover here today will just add one more thing. Happy Thanksgiving

I was just looking at the injury report for the Falcons, seeing Michael Vick listed as out with suspension knowing he is sitting in a jail cell during Thanksgiving is crazy. I don't know why someone with so much would risk it all like that, and by something like fighting dogs and killing them and crap. Anyway looking at the late game I think the Colts have a good chance to break out of their recent score slump and think that the Falcons should be able to score a couple of touchdowns as long as they take some shots downfield which they probably will have to do once the Colts jump out to an early lead, so I am taking the Over 41.5 for the game and the Colts -7 1st Half. GL guys.

Took the Over 20.5 first half also, think that the Colts jump out early on the Falcons. I know both teams have been having trouble scoring but I gotta go with my gut.
