1-6 -10.76u

second straight Saturday bloodbath. not good for my motivation to undertake this kind of father-of-the-year shit like last night. oh well - it's probably a coincidence.

11-19 -21.87u start in CFB. this is feeling eerily like the first coupla weeks of baseball season. here's hoping that a 25-8 run follows this shitfest.

he is gold. will have to watch more of him. been relying upon my CFB picks last two weeks for comedic relief...

BiffTFinancial · 09-23-12, 09:51 AM

lean Browns, Jets, Bengals in other early games, will probably pass on those.

newbottles · 09-23-12, 10:39 AM

Biff I hit a losing week as well. 3-6 on the bets I posted here. NFL card looks very tricky today. I will likely tread lightly and enjoy the games. We will cash next week and over the season BOL to all.

what's up newbottles. yeah, it will all even out over time, pendulum always swings back. BOL to you today.

Yeah I know it's late but I am sitting this week out.

Here's my early morning leans. All 4 teams plus 13.

Atl/SD O 34
Mia/NY O 28
Stl/Chi U 56
Cin/Wash O 37
Jax/Ind U 56

GL to all!

Madison · 09-23-12, 12:29 PM

I'm getting the Jets and MIA and boy do the Jets look awful. Unless the Mia D is the 2nd coming of the fearsome foursome.

Madison · 09-23-12, 01:51 PM

Word of caution. NE barring major problems is an absolute (the word we're not supposed to use) to win the their division. Therefore they will emphasize intra division games. Be cautious of out of division especially out of conference. I.E. Arz. NYJ/Mia/Buff Sux.

feel really fortunate to have gotten the W there, what with the missed FGs by the Dolphins and all.

Good morning,

I actually took the entire weekend off. That would have been brutal to lose with SD only scoring 3 pts on Atl D. Definitely didn't see that coming.

2daBank · 09-26-12, 03:59 AM

Biff and friends tell me about ucf..i know you watched them once or twice, had a little time and trying to get feel but i havnt seen them...seems to me miz is prime for another fade in a gm ppl aare taking the wrong team simply cause mizzou in sec? i been poking tons of holes in miz for weeks but as you know i havnt had tons of times on sat and havnt had any chances to see ucf, only stats...

Smutbucket · 09-26-12, 12:26 PM

yo bank, I dont watch UCF games, but I got some buddies who go to most of the games, even flew up to ohio to watch the ohio st game, these UCF graduates are big fans, not me, but I never officially graduated, I asked em about it and he says stay away from ucf on this one, thats all he told me, for what its worth, not much insight I can give on it....

missou is in the sec now but they shouldnt be considered dangerous based on that until they play some SEC talent for a few years and adapt their offenses/defenses/recruiting....

right on bro,,,i was hoping more for how good is their dline, what kind of offense thye run how big their oline is ect, fans can be so fickle or maybe they just see as many bad things in their team as i do in mizzou which is possible and would make sense they would tell you to stay away cause i wouldnt touch mizzou...lol

Smutbucket · 09-26-12, 03:52 PM

ya I just sent em a txt about it and he told me to stay away, Ill try to talk to em before the game, get a little more in depth analysis of their strengths/weaknesses.....

Interesting possible angle here. Who recovers quicker Off or Def. My guess Off. I wonder if there are stats out there for O/U on short days rest? GL as always!

so far this season in NFL, i think that the short turnaround has favored the defense (Bank pointed this out previously). now, of course, watch it be 14-10 at the end of the 1Q tonight.

if you go look back since they started playing these thur night gms you will notice a very high clip are rather low scoring.....far as it favoring d im not really sure that is the reason, lack of prep and recovery time i think just lead to some sloppy play and vanilla gm plans, especially early on in the gms...ive been betting the 1st half unders on these things for some time and although im not much of a record keeper i assure you it a winning proposition yr in and yr out...
