If ya'll wanta make some easy money on football tonight, Dallas is really banged up .Starting WR Miles Austin is out and Brant is probably out (Hamstring) But the bigger concern is at center. The Cowboys do not have anybody healthy that has played center and are having trouble even with the Center/QB exchange (a lot of fumbles in practice) They even tried to bring another center (Jackson) in last minute but after a poor workout decided not to sign. Cowboys also have a lot of injuries at Guard position too.....

The play is oakland Pk, i'm putting $400 on it

**Vaughany** · 08-13-12, 09:50 AM

Just reading about it...

Could things get any worse for the Dallas Cowboys? Apparently, they can.
To end Friday’s practice the team lost starting center Phil Costa, to an undisclosed lower back injury. Dallas is now forced to use second-year guard David Arkin as the starting center for Monday’s preseason opener against theOakland Raiders.
Arkin, drafted as a guard, has never taken a snap in an NFL game before, but the woes don’t end there.
During Saturday’s practice, quarterback Tony Romo suffered am injury to his throwing hand, which required his fingers to be taped. The Cowboys’ signal caller returned to the field however, and after practice said, “I’m fine.”
Although Romo is shrugging it off as nothing, this worries me because he’s injured his throwing hand before. Romo broke his right pinkie in 2008, and in December of last season he suffered another hand injury. Maybe it’s nothing, like Romo says, but we’ll see come Monday night.
To add salt to the Cowboys’ wounds, wide receiver Dez Bryant was also sidelined with injury on Saturday. The stud receiver, who’d been dazzling in training camp, suffered a hamstring injury.
Bryant joins a list, which includes Miles Austin, Jason Hatcher and Anthony Spencer, all whom are sidelined with hamstring injuries that occurred during training camp.
Jerry Jones remains adamant, however, that this early in camp, players with hamstring injuries aren’t going to get pushed back into action until they’re ready, something he calls, “policy.”
This means that we will probably not see either of the starting wide receivers on Monday night, but looking at it on the bright side – if there is one – we will see the young receivers in action.
Looking to separate himself from the pack of young receivers is third year wide-out Kevin Ogletree. He will more than likely be the team’s No. 1 receiver along with Cole Beasley as the No. 2 receiver, against Oakland. I’m particularly looking forward to seeing what Tim Benford brings to the Cowboys’ offense.
I believe that Monday’s result will decide if the Cowboys need to bring in a veteran receive

math has nothing to do with anything that was talked about in this thread. he tried to give me shit for not posting my bet amounts last week, when all he did is post his bet amounts but not the actual ticket, which is something i myself used to get shit for on here. you guys used to tell me "anybody can say they made a bet, where is the ticket?" shit like that, but you guys seem to be giving this clown a pass. i personally don't care what he posts, it's just ironic that he tried to give me shit when he doesn't even post his tickets...

Also, you guys know my name and what I do. I challenged him to share the same information you know about myself then see if he has the balls to continue posting bet amounts. But he seems to conveniently not respond to that, 'cos it just makes him look like the bitch that he is.

You all know my full name and my occupation, and I had been posting my tickets. This clown tried giving me shit for going a week without it. If you've got half the balls I do, kid, you'll prove it by giving out your full name and telling us where you work. This is the third time I'm saying this, and it will the third time you ignore it because you are a giant pu$$.

I think it does because he was arguing that somebody could mathematically end up with a loss even if you get majority of your picks correct - all depends on how much you staked. Im not saying its right or not that you do or dont post your stake size or your ticket (sometimes I dont always do it). And yes that's fair enough that everybody knows who you are so you might not want to post full details

Hard to have a losing night when you go 6-3 and 6-1-- let's say i won $50 on all 6 bets that won, but lost $1,000 on the 1 bet that lost, but I didn't post my bet amounts. Does that mean the people tailing me lost money, too? No, it doesn't. What I wager has nothing to do with what they want to wager. If I say I'm "all-in" on a play, do you have to know exactly how much money that is? No, you don't. You just have to make note that I'm very confident in the play and have a lot riding on it. This past Sat, I said I was all in on Lentz. Got him at -350 before he became -500 for me. Anyway, this guy is a real clown for focusing on something so dumb as me not posting bet amounts on Saturday, when not a single professional handicapper EVER posts bet amounts. Just a ridiculous thing to attack me for, especially when I've been complimentory towards him. Guy is just a real scumbag. I mean, his dad taught him to gamble when he was 9. He can't NOT grow up to be a scumbag.

IRS would be the main concern, but I work in the entertainment industry, and something like this could come back to bite you in the ass.

you basically just copy and paste. i dont care to see it, knowing you're confident in the play is all that matters. doesn't matter to me how much you're betting. i mentioned the ticket thing because people said that to me when i used to post bet amounts but not tickets.

as long as you provide the plays, your thoughts behind it, and how confident you are, that's all that matters.

I wanted to lock up Oakland +1 last night, but forgot. Woke up to them being -1, so I just took the -130 ML.

Have them parlayed with Rousey and Jacare, and a big 2 teamer with just Oakland and Rousey.

yeah, that's what i thought, too. but some of the guys on here have a hard-on for seeing tickets or they write you off. i think posting both tickets and bet amounts is unnecessary. it's cool to keep that record for yourself, to know how much you're up or down, but all people tailing care about is A) what the play is, B) why that's the play, and C) how confident you are in said play -- most of the time, i read jesus' plays but don't bother to check how much he is risking.

**gabe** · 08-13-12, 03:11 PM

man, raiders are not looking good...

I like how Gabe edited his post though which showed he had Raiders in every parlay!

**AdamB** · 08-14-12, 03:08 AM

Ouch. I tailed also. Is it not the case that pre-season exhibitions just aren't worth betting on?

**gabe** · 08-14-12, 03:30 AM

should have been an easy win, they blew 5 scoring opportunities

Don't know if this is true, but it would be a pretty perfect example of why not to include anything in every parlay, regardless of confidence. All your eggs in one basket and whatnot.
