Enjoy! I'm jealous, I have to leave in a bit to go play round one of weekend hoops tourney. Gotta focus, though - win tonight means we get bye through early games tomorrow morning. BOL tonight, Rainbowmoney!

Buried you pal on the NC/Prov under. I have to be the streakiest gambler ever. I was up 22 units since Jan and I'm now down 11U without a win in the last 3 weeks or so. I tried the ML parlay just to try getting a win.

adding

1* Tulsa/UCLA 1H under 68

at bar will clean up shitty card later.

Emotionally ready, but not mentally ready for bases. Need to do a lot of prep, which starts tomorrow. Can't wait for the daily grind, most fun sport to cap in my opinion. Will look forward to checking out your MLB thoughts, STF.

at first look, not crazy about any totals today so may just stick to sides.

in other games, lean SLU and Dayton but passing on those.

lean Wisky, UConn late, may add. playing in hoops tourney this morning/early afternoon and those don't tip until 7:45/9:40 respectively.

[BiffTFinancial]

BOL to all today.

I am literally the worst at posting pics/videos. wish i could resize this one, but it's beyond my modest powers.

[RavensFan2k3]

Interesting call on Pitt...why them today?

[BiffTFinancial]

adding

1* Oregon/Wisconsin over 145 (-105)

upon closer review, really like this one, but only total today that looks really good. also thought about Wisky TT over 75 since like Wisky side.

Interesting call on Pitt...why them today?

i think it will be a low-scoring game and Pitt finally in good form while UF has looked a little vulnerable last couple of games. almost lost to UK outright due to poor decisions and FT shooting down the stretch. UF very reliant upon 3-point shooting for scoring and Pitt defends that pretty well with their athletic length. Zanna one of few guys around who can match Patric Young's power inside. see this being pretty similar to Pitt/UVA, and while Pitt hasn't had the greatest season, they've only lost by more than 5 twice. i have Gators by 1-3, so +5' pretty tough to pass up for me. BOL whatever you decide today.

Back later, time to play some hoops.

Thank you for the analysis, BOL today!

What about La Tech @ UGA 1st half u67. Tips in 30min. UGA good defensively, early tip. Could be good spot for under.

Texas?? Hmmm! I've been wrong on them for a month or so.

[Madison]

Org/Wisky total caught my eye early. Goin bad so maybe I'll leave this for you.

NCAA Tourney Round 2 (Saturday 3.22.2014) final card
1* Pitt +5' - LOSER
1* Texas +5 - LOSER
1* North Dakota State +3 - LOSER
1* Oregon/Wisconsin over 145 (-105) - WINNER
1* Michigan State -7 - PUSH

1-3-1 -2.3u (1-3-1 also a defense that will confound any Rick Barnes-coached team).

Second straight bad day in tourney.

[BiffTFinancial]

Whats up BIFF? How did the hoops tourney go today??

Thanks for asking, brotha. Second straight year we've advanced to final then lost ugly in final. Frustrating. We don't get to choose our teams - goes by grade(s) in which you have kids. Most teams play zone (pussies - i will never play zone unless is 1-3-1 pressure or some such) and our team had no guard play, was clueless against zone. I was hands down our top assist guy and i'm 6'5" 230 (down from 270 two years ago ). Guys yelling "move, move!" to teammates in zone offense. No, no, against a zone the players should've move nearly as much as the ball does (and where players move, they should be interchanging and/or setting stalker screams against weak spots in zone). Way too much dribbling and dumbfuckery from guys who watch NBA and think that they're watching basketball. Simply not enough time for me to play and coach these guys up vs zone (plus, not proper venue to yell at guy about mental mistakes and come off like asshole). Nice guys though and glad that my kids are spending time around them and their kids (just so long as they don't team my kids about hoops - i have that covered).

Oh well, kids enjoy getting to watch me play and it's for a good cause. Per usual, no one takes losing worse than i do. I'm a gentleman until i leave, but then i sit around and mope the rest of the day (my shitty hoops plays didn't help with that). At least i hit both ends of one-and-one up 4 with 30 seconds left in the semis to ice that one. I also defended 6'10" guy in semis and 6'8" in finals and basically physically beat both down by the end of the game, so there's that. Nothing better than playing guy bigger and better than me and taking his lunch money.

Oh well, today is a new day - let's get it!

[BiffTFinancial]

Org/Wisky total caught my eye early. Goin bad so maybe I'll leave this for you.

My only good play of the day. Man, i just don't know how you guys play sides. So unpredictable. Really seems like totals are the way to go.
