    Climb,
    I'm gonna do it. I would definitely tune in on Sunday.

    Visual,
    It's okay. I would be skeptical too. Let's just keep winning!

        After some deliberation, I'm going with 3 team 10 point teaser:

        Green Bay -1
        New York Jets -.5
        BUF/SD over 37.5

                did you know that bookies are known to laugh uncontrollably when hanging up the phone after people place teaser bets? its a known fact.

                    If youre gonna tease an over... why not bring down GB/Raiders in GB to 42... packers average 35 there and you know Seabass can kick 2-4 FG's at least

                        I did, don't worry. I'm just trying to figure out what the hell it is, or if it is blasphemous. Can you clarify?

                          I could do anything, yes, but these are the plays I liked with spread, and my rule with teasers (Dex says never play them, but occasionally I do) is that you have to like the line to go with it. I considered Jets -10 and Packers -10 near top plays with the BUF/SD over similar, so that's why I decided to tease instead of straight plays. I think those will come close to or cover, it's just that they weren't quite "top plays", therefore the teaser. I didn't like doing it but it will hit.

                          The next plays will get back to straights, don't worry boys.

                                Keep it going Matt, I'm hitting my stride. I foresaw this run, that's why I made the thread.

                                I'll release the pick at 7:45 eastern

                                                I think they win outright, yes, but my play is a "top play" and to me in this matchup, NYG a different team with Bradshaw, divisional matchup, it'll be close. NYG covers.

                                                      I think the Cowboys win by at least 6. Not sure what advantage you're giving the Giants here.

                                                                  can you please stop with the capping games stuff? all you ever say is "i dont see the angle", yet you never mention what type of angles you look at. you look at line changes, and public %'s....there is nothing wrong with that, just admit it. thats why you get so much shit from people on here.

Recall that I said I didn't play all 3 because they were at difficult spread junctions --- go look it up --- I liked the NYJ and GB under or at 10 and thought Bills was a very solid line at 47.5/48


                                                                    Perhaps that 1 point miss on the over was reason to take a teaser on those? Obviously it was.

                                                                      In addition, while going 18-5 is cool, it's a completely arbitrary accomplishment and really doesn't "matter" at all. I still don't understand what you are trying to prove.

                                                                      I'm not hating, I hope you do it. I'm just saying -- it doesn't "matter" nor does it prove anything. If you do it, it will be cool, but no one really cares except you. If you don't do it, that will be unfortunate for you, but no one will really care about that either.

                                                                      I hope you get the Giants though because I have them teased up to +10.5.

Conceivably, one could go 18-5 by throwing darts and getting "lucky." In your case, I would say much less randomness is involved because of your previous record over the 50-60 game small sample. If you go on another run like 18-5, there would be less randomness involved this time and such a streak is to be more likely the result of "skill" than luck. Now all you need to do is win.
                                                                        Who's being consistent now, LTA? Is it much less randomness, or are you trying to diminish my good start out of the gate when I called it?
