ok y was the game fixed? is it not easier to try for a 55 yard field goal for the win or a 45 yard pass for a td once they got inside the 30 they had to go for the td if they would have had time and onside kicked then a 15 yard out baronas could make that with a better % than a hail mary sorry you guys lost but it wasnt fixed

you guys are COMPLETELY missing the point. the only chance titans had of winning was kicking with 40 seconds left. announcers even said. either way you need an onside.

i heard it boss, maybe fisher wanted to play it differently

either way people are pissed off right now and these fixed BS arguments wont get us anywhere

it was a terrible beat for all

okay guy. You guys are all right. I hope you can convince your books to give you the money back after you make it clear the game was rigged. Im sure they will agree. Im done in this thread. Same old story- its rigged when you lose but a good call when you win.

i already stated i sat this game out due to the large public favorite!!!

no fg with 35 seconds makes absolutely no sense if you plan on winning!!!

Not everyone bet or lost in here...it's just you they are pissed at. I happen to be lucky enough to have had the moneyline only but you are a disgrace to gambling and sportsmanship and should be banned

People always say its rigged when they lose in this thread but when they win it was a great call. Show some maturity people. A loss is a loss. We have all been there.

you are right LB a loss is a loss, but i have coached high school football for over 10 yrs now, and in no way is there ever a scenario where you would do what fisher did. It makes no sense. once the got to the 35 yard line he should have tried 3 times for the end zone, if they didn't get it then kick the field goal. 3 incomplete passes would have used about 25 seconds, kick a field goal and be down by 6 pts. Then you gamble and try the onside kick, if you get it you have a chance to win, if you don't then you lose, but you gave your team a chance to win. What fisher did eliminated the chance to win, it only gave him a chance to score, but not to win. I am not saying, the game was fixed, but what fisher did should get him fired cuz he quit on trying to win and only made the game closer so it didn't look so bad. I would rather lose by 6 with a chance to win than to go all the way down the field to know the best you can do is lose by 2. what a shitty coach and a terrible message to send to your team. he should be fired.

Dood, I believe LB was trying to be sarcastic about everybody saying jeff Fischer was trying to cover the game. He wasn't trying to rub anything in guys. LB is always repectful and is friends with Paco. Let's just let this go guys and move on to tomorrows winners.

I've seen guys here saying when we win that we were on the right side of the FIX!

Today we were on the wrong side of the FIX!

There are few argument to say it was not a fix! If they wanted to score and make something to try to win they needed the FG and time to try to get the ball back!
They went ate the clock and went for a useless TD?

If that's not fixed I don't know what u will call FIX!

Sorry Paco bro!
I wanna puke and cry at the same time too.

bballs84 · 12-09-10, 11:53 PM

PAC keep ya head up.. You will bounce back no doubt

this is still professional sports, these guys would rather lose by 2 than 9

If they're playing for a win they kick a field goal and an onside. Fisher quit but didn't want to kneel. It wasn't fixed, and Fisher wasn't trying to cover, he just quit.

Couldnt have said it any bettor

Lakers714 · 12-09-10, 11:53 PM

I hear what you're saying fly but they had the ball inside the 10 with 25 seconds left. At that point, what do u do? U have to go for the TD at that point cuz they have a much better shot from there compared to recovering an onside kick and going for a TD.

EXACTLY! Fischer was NOT playing to win. He burnt all of his time to cover the spread with NO CHANCE of winning the game. Goodell cant be happy about this. This is a man's game and it aint horseshoes so close does NOT cut it. You play to win. Nothing else matters.

There are many posting on this subject. Some I respect, others not. Respectfully, it would be decent if we all respected Paco's thread and did not try to prove why the game was or was not fixed. This was a massive loss for the man that has made us all some money. Would be nice if we showed some class in the wake of this big loss.

maxcraft · 12-09-10, 11:54 PM

The writing is on the wall that when Adam made the last FG, Colts defense will just let them score a TD so that they will have no time left for an onside kick..

Sorry for the lose paco.. I know you will get it next time bro..

I'm still riding high with that Touchdown.. Never in doubt that the Titans will score a TD there.. Called it before it happened

Mikail · 12-09-10, 11:54 PM

Paco I'm feeling your pain right now. I've heard of some bad beats but haven't seen nothing like that before. Hang in there bro. Just a bump in the road. Truly sorry about the big loss.

slimpickins · 12-09-10, 11:55 PM

Lb isn't there an NBA game on that u should be following?

Sorry Paco, u will get it back
back to the grind

sneakerhead · 12-09-10, 11:55 PM

Tough loss bro, had a lot of money on it as well.
Still cant believe books got it down to the last point.

southpaw74 · 12-09-10, 11:55 PM

If they don't score on the last play then nobody is talking "fixed" mumbo jumbo. it was thrown in traffic and he wasnt wide open. What does that tell you...it's just bad luck

Lakers714 · 12-09-10, 11:56 PM

Like I said, poor clock managent but when u have the ball inside the 10 with 25 seconds left. U have to get your TD there and go for the much easier FG on the onside kick. Again, poor clock management but he had to so what he did.

I think no one was expecting the knee! When we saw the Titans moving to the end zone we knew what could happen!

But if that's pro sports and u want to win go for the FG and try to recover the ball on the punt!

shakinakin · 12-09-10, 11:56 PM

All I ever hear in the NBA forums from these guys is that the NBA is rigged. I dont care whether it is or isnt but maybe that only applies to the games they bet? If people want something to blame then I dont know why people who haven't even bet the game need to come in here and argue with them.

If they intended on trying to win the game, at that point the clock was a huge factor so when they where inside the 30 yard line the best strategy would be to immediately kick the FG make it 30-24 and then onside kick with enough time on the clock to get a few throws to the endzone if they recovered.

That's still a risk though. It would be a 45-47 yard FG. I believe the very next play got it inside the 10. At that point they had to get their TD there.

You kick from the 30, if you get the onside you have the ball at the 45 at best. How many players have made a 72 yard field goal? How many players have caught a 72 yard hail mary? Just saying...

I agree, the game was lost when Blair got in the way of the touchdown. I lost over 2k on this game and I am a fifty, hundred guy but I loved this game and I had already bet 15x before I even seen Paco was on it. I thought this was a spot to go large and I was right for 59 minutes of the game, but that's why they play 60. It's a bad beat and that's it, I've had them before and I will have them again. Paco hate to see you lose that much cash but you will get it back soon I am sure. Good luck this weekend fellas.

CarmeLO15 · 12-10-10, 12:00 AM

Very frustrating to lose the bet by only half point. Well i'm sure your posted here enough plays to cover this loss.. so it's okay paco. The right play between colts or titans was colts. You took colts. You made the right call. Don't worry bro you can't win them all.

sportfan · 12-10-10, 12:01 AM

That garbage Td killed my teaser too , I had colts +4.5/under 52 , f\*\*k

1017BrickSquad · 12-10-10, 12:03 AM

as mad as we all are crying will not win our money back...i can reassure you though Paco will be back and better than ever one loss is not gonna keep him down

Agreed but when you are on the 35 yard line you take 3 shots at the end zone and conserve clock, you get the TD, then onside or you get 3 incompletes, then FG and onside, eitehr way you have a chance to win. But to systematically move the ball down the field and use up clock that is poor coaching and poor clock management, and he should be fired. He talks about Youngs immaturity, he showed immaturity the way he finished that game. Yea, I might have buried myself and I am pissed, but more pissed that I lost because Fisher coached horribly in the last 3 minutes.

maxcraft · 12-10-10, 12:04 AM

I don't think paco lose 63 units on that beautiful backdoor cover by the titans... I think he didn't place his bet because paco is not a square.. everyone knows that... he is as sharp as the sharps in vegas.. he knows vegas will fukk all the squares today and placed his bet on the Titans +3.. Well played paco..

so don't feel sorry for him, he also made a lot of money just like me..

slimpickins · 12-10-10, 12:06 AM

Honestly biggest play in the last few minutes was the colts running back running out of bounds on 2nd down
he lost 3 yards on the play but cost 40 seconds of clock that would have run off
huge rookie mistake

Mikail · 12-10-10, 12:06 AM
