The Official Raiders 57% Challenge Thread

[rm18]

Alright for right now I got two plays, I will probably add between 1-3 more tomorrow, depending on what the lines do.

Not very representative of what I normally do, but for now all chalk and probably more to come.

Washington -1.5

Arizona -2.5

[SBR_John]

Good luck rm!

[jjgold]

Should be very interesting

[hoppa_long]

Love it when a man put his money where his mouth is....gl rm

[rm18]

I don't know how this happened but, Raiders -3 at Cris

[rm18]

2-0 start for me, but still have to hit over 56% from now on so a long way to go.

Winless teams have been doing great against the spread today at 3-0, but of course the Cards were blown out in that spot last week, so we'll see what happens, I'm thinking Fitzgerald and Boldin will be too much for a depleted secondary tonight

[jjgold]

Good start guy

[Brick Tamland]

Raiders is going to need a receit so he can write this of in Feb.

[raiders72001]

Nice 3-0 start rm.

[rm18]

Alright give me some Green Bay +7.5 in case it is gone when I get home

[rm18]

Well now it is out to 4-0, Raiders may catch a break tomorrow when I have to bet North Texas and Troy, but now my win percentage is down to 55.2% for the rest of the way.

[raiders72001]

That one shouldn't count.

Carolina was crushing them. If that game costs me $1000 I'm charging the Carolina Panthers for that debacle at the end.

[bigboydan]

raiders, it's still early in this contest. so, don't get so mad just yet. now on the other hand, RM maybe just warming up

[rm18]

Troy +2.5, the fact that NT could not score against back ups even when they are down 50 makes me like this, although I will not be putting money on teams I have never seen like this, I do not want anyone to see my 4-0 record and lose money on this game thinking this is a good pick

[rm18]

5-0

for tomorrow i got Miami U + 3 at VIP

[rm18]

Hey moderators do you think there is any chance we could get someone to post lines on the contest?

I would be interesting to see if people really think I am going to win when their money is on the line.

[Bill Dozer]

Nice start RM! Nothing like going 5-0 to taike the pressure off.

I'd guess the line would be...

RM18 -105
Raiders -115

[mad]

You taking a commission on that action Dozer?

Hows about we give raiders a coupla' points as well. At this stage it looks like he may need it.

[rm18]

no commission, but Dozer does accrue 30,000 net points, worth roughly 25 cent

[rm18]

5-1 now for the contest

Today I got Georgia Tech -3.5

[rm18]

Got the line I wanted Syracuse +7, hopefully Randy Moss' cousin will come through and end my two game losing streak.

[rm18]

Man I didn't see this coming still over 57%, but a three game losing streaks puts it at 5-3

For tomorrow:

Michigan -7
Illinois +6.5
Air Force pick
Georgia +2.5
possibly more tomorrow, depending how the line move.

lol, the new business venture. SBRescrow.com

[rm18]

My struggles continue now an even 50% at 6-6, last year I was under 50% in NFL picking the board, and did great in college but so far in the contest 4-0 in the NFL and 2-6 in college, hopefully my pro sucess continues.

Eagles -3
Ravens +1
Patriots+2.5

I will add the Redskins later hopefully at 7

[rm18]

Redskins +7

[OldeTymePlaya]

good luck rm18

[rm18]

Well I got lucky, two last second wins and two blowout losses, at least I beat the prick in my first try to help make up the $500 debt it looks like I am heading towards

8-8 for the contest

[jjgold]

rm not bad to start

Your hanging in there early

gl

[Brick Tamland]

Its a game of streaks. You are still coming from behind but you can get another run.

Dont let Gaydar7200 enjoy this !!

[raiders72001]

rm- It's still early

Brick- At least rm has the stones to put up some $ for a challenge like this. I respect him for that. Please go away and leave this thread to the men.

[rm18]

Well I will have to take San Diego -3.5 tonight, wish I would have got it at 3, I think they end Roethlisbergers streak of 15 straight against everyone but the Pats, just how they ended the Pats 21 game home winning streak. Steelers will miss Burress more this season more than most think.

[raiders72001]

bump for rm

8-9

[jjgold]

Looks like your going to be a winner Raiders

No one beats sports betting one side

[rm18]

For today I will go with Clemson +4.5, I would be surprised if this is not a one score game, hopefully it isn't St. by a TD.
