    Minnesota Vikings -200$600 to win $300, this line should be way higher. Cleveland is an awful team, and are gonna get destroyed. Gonna play it safe though, tuff to bet the spreads in week #1. Just like the Pittsburgh game last night, gonna just roll the ML here too.

    New Orleans -14 (bought -3 points) -11 $425 to win $250

    I don't anticipate either game being within 20 points, but NFL Week #1 is rather unpredictable.

    Great start, obama. A win is a win, however you get it!

    If Seattle gets their ass in gear, your parlay will be looking good, too!

    Nice work Uncle O. That Ravens game was a gift, I thought they'd kick the field goal and kill it for us.

    I got the line at Baltimore -13 and bought 3, to make it -10, they were up by 7 so a field goal and I still would have covered. Glad you cashed too.

    Just fan talk, jeff. I'm a Bears fan.

    Actually, Green Bay looks like one of the best bets on the board. Which is why this one might be tougher than it looks.

    GL to obama, he's having a superb day.

    Have not made the official bet on the New England game tommorrow night, but I think the bookies are giving us a gift on it. Much like the Minnesota game today. May not make official plays on this game till tommorrow. Staying away from the San Diego game. Too dangerous, could go either way.

    Great job today Uncle O! I hit my 6 team parlay, $25 paid $798.31. What sh*t luck I needed, both Baltimore and Green Bay scored TD's instead of FG's at the end of the game.

    Nice job on the parlay, thats a nice hit. I would have quoted your post but for some reason I'm no longer able to do this, maybe my computer is messed up or maybe its SBR I don't know. Nice job again.
    I have done exactly what I wanted to do on Week #1, already got a nice bankroll built up after 1 week.

    Thanks man. I know you think I'm crazy (heck, I AM crazy!), but that's why I call myself RoagBettor. I bet like I live my life and run my business - high risk/high reward. It's a wild ride but I can't do it any other way.

    Good luck going forward.

    So to recap:

    New England 1st Half -7 $220 to win $200
    New England -11 $540 to win $450

    Probably will stay away from the San Diego/Oakland game.

    I started with $5,000 in an account, the account is now at $6,400. So a little over 10% of my bankroll on the New England game. I don't follow many rules betting. Won over $4,000 on MLB in July alone, and won about $500 in August and lost about $1,500 betting on MLB in September. So September isn't the time to bet on baseball, maybe will get back into it when the playoffs start.
