Hello everyone. I look forward to talking football with you all this fall. I'm making my first picks of the season this Saturday:

Stanford +3 (Wake Forest)
Tennessee-10 (UCLA)
Idaho +21 (Washington)
Air Force +3.5 (Minnesota)
Tulsa -17.5 (New Mexico)
Florida -36 (Troy)
Ohio -3 (North Texas)

Good luck.

I may be wrong, but I don't think Washington is ready to lay 20+ to anyone.

I don't know Idaho is pretty bad, Wasshington is much improved. And if they are winning they will try to run it up just becasue they haven't won in so long.

[SoonerBS]

I like Idaho, Tulsa and Air Force . . . . . good luck . . .

Hey everyone, SportsChic or PittChic....or whatever other reincarnation she comes up with is BACK!

Ya gotta give her credit.....she always manages to have "Chic" in her name....she doesn't even try to disguise her ghost.

Either way, welcome (AGAIN FOR THE THIRD TIME).

The emoticons always give it away.

the out of control parlays and poor money management shall commence shortly

Welcome to the board, Agree with most of your plays aside from the Minny game and Troy. Minny opens their new stadium and while AF can run the ball as good or better than most teams in the country I just don't think that on the road in a hostile atmosphere makes them an auto-play, if Weber improves play (which I expect) I think that the gophers win by 7 or so. With Troy I think they are a better team than Florida played last week obviously they actually have SOME athletes.. while I do think FL will win.. a line this high usually can lead to a backdoor cover.

Love the Idaho pick.. I think that Washington should not be favored by this much against any team.. sure they played great against LSU but it was a primetime game against a prime time program... most teams know they have to step it up.

I forgot about the parlays.

Here they come.

Another ghost. PittChic, SportsChic, now Capperchic? I am with you on Tennessee, Stanford, and Florida though.

Well, I can assure you that I'm not PittChic or any other previous "Chics" that have been on here. As far as parlays, those are generally sucker bets. I might play a small one on occasions for entertainment, but you won't see me posting them on here. I don't know about this other girl's poor money management, but I'm a flat bettor-hence no varying number of "stars" or "units" in my original post. All of my picks risk my standard bet plus the juice, which is normally -110. I did manage to find -105 on a couple of my bets this weekend, but does it really matter that much for posting on here? I do keep up with those details in my personal records. First of all, you don't pay any juice on winners and besides, I'll probably make a few -115 bets over the course of the season and those things usually even out.

I know others like to increase/decrease bets based upon confidence, bankrolls, tea leaves, or whatever. I have good reason to justify why it's better to just be a flat bettor. I'm not looking to "convert" anyone. If that's how you allocate your bankroll, then it's your business and I'm fine with that. I'm just giving a heads-up on how you can expect to see me run my business.

Hopefully after this weekend you'll be calling me Winning Chic!

Welcome to the forum CapperChic, I'm on Tulsa with you. Let's win some

Pitt....how much did you re-load tonight? Another night...another parlay.......oyyyyyy.

Not sure how to link a thread MartinBlank, but go to college basketball handicapping thread, I bumped it for you

[mcbaseball10]

Pitt..... What EXACTLY did you learn? You just risked your entire bankroll on a parlay and lost again. What is it you learned? This is what you SHOULD have learned. Money management. Do not risk your entire bankroll on a parlay. I want you to win. I really do. But how many times do you need to touch a stove before you know it is hot? You began posting here with an initial deposit of 1500 bucks. You lost all of it. You then deposited a few hundred, turned it into nearly 7K, and lost all of that. You then deposited another 300 and lost that. Now you deposited another 200 and lost all that. I really want you to win, but you need to figure this all out.

Last one I promise

SportsChic....there are dumb people in this world, the problem is there are not THAT many dumb people in this world. Even though you have had only 2 posts, let me predict exactly how you will post on this forum. You will begin each day by creating a thread. You will then ask for advice on each game that is either on tv or going off at that moment. You will parlay like there is no tomorrow. You will chase losses with heavy wagers. You will bet right through the card, including the second half of every late game to get back your losses. You will use the word "cuties". Listen, it is cool with me that you created a new name, but don't bs' a bs'er. Best of luck. By the way. Your pic is way hotter than that Steelers avatar. Put your pic back in please.

haha..tooo funny Thanks MrMonkey..you are quite the gentleman! Martin, feel free to say what you like, but my name is sportschic and im probably way hotter than the other girl you are talking about. As far as a betting style, you should be able to determine that AFTER I make my first couple wagers...good luck though and maybe you will like me just as much as your former girlfriend "pittchic"

[MartinBlank]

Well, I will say this. This "Chic" posts differently. But we shall see as this plays itself out.

Best of luck to everyone.
