This is ridiculous.
It's not even 9am and you picked 6 games.
You're not capping. You're throwing darts.

Thought you were better than this, DOM.

What makes you think I didn't cap these games days, or weeks ago?

oh yeah ? well if you capped them days or weeks ago,
then your rationale for each of the six should be easily
expressed here briefly so go ahead and don't make it up either.

ok. tell uswhy Duke won't beat Elon by 20.

**WilsonKingOfSB** · 11-10-17, 11:43 AM

GL this year Dom, been following for a few years

**UNMLOBOFAN51** · 11-10-17, 12:06 PM

Snowball why you in here caring if he is throwing darts. Dont come in here snooping around for plays if you gonna question him on opening night. At this point all these bets are gut feeling. No one knows how anyone is even playing. Duke, Kentucky and lots of top teams are always loaded with Freshman you dont truly know what you are going to get.

**kj8210** · 11-10-17, 12:21 PM

Dom any thoughts on Ball State +6 and Wofford +6? Thanks and good luck this season!

Could Duke win by 30? Sure. But I think they don't cover the spread. I think there's great value in Elon +19.5, an Elon team returning most their guys who went down to Duke last year and lost by only 11 in a competitive game. An Elon team who won't be intimidated, and in fact has a personal agenda vs. Grayson Allen who tripped a starting Elon player who trust me would love to get revenge on the court with a major upset win tonight. Meanwhile Duke has a little bit of a Lookahead game vs. Michigan State tuesday in Chicago at the United Center for the Champions Classic. Elon brings a team who can play together, meanwhile Duke brings tremendous talent of individual players who have not played a single meaningful game together yet.

I like it, that's a solid analysis.

No thoughts on Ball St, but Wofford plus 6 caught my eye early this morning, just don't feel strong enough to play it day 1.

Take that Sno. Also it seems to me every year the books HAVE to over value the name teams. Remember what Dean Smith used to say:

Oct. wins are fools gold, or something to that affect.

BOL this year Dom.

**Snowball** · 11-10-17, 01:31 PM

Thanks, DOM. I guess when I see 6 picks with no explanation at 8-9 AM
I just had to ask.

No problem. Lots of dart throwers on SBR; I'm not one of them. I've had games capped weeks ago for today's card and the next couple days. Also, had today off work so I was up early morning finalizing my card for today.

That too long a wait for me, I start playing during the upcoming tourneys. Lots of solid tried and true angles in those to be played plus get a good idea of teams as they play out!! stopped messing w these 1st games and the marathon games years ago tho, too wild of swings for my taste! Lol

Still believe in Dom...this have to be the worst start dude... slowly get it ...

**trillz** · 11-13-17, 11:06 AM

IIRC Dom started off a bit slow last season but still cracked 56-57% by season end

I started last season 25 units in the hole. It was awful. And I still turned a profit on the season. I'm 57% over the last 3 seasons, over 1300 games.

We'll turn this season around quickly.
