yis, i've got the sparks projected as -7.5, pinny opened them at -4, currently listed at -2. but that's all because atlanta is getting too much respect. they will lose tonight!

tough call at this point, but i would roll with the sparks

my wnba bets for tonight are
sparks -2
mystics -2.5
sparks under 164

france seems to be a good choice also (58.6% vs tunisia/draw)

losturmarbles · 05-30-10, 10:34 AM

damn mystics are really getting steamed right now.

sparks are probably getting hit too, but they're holding the number anticipating a lot of public action on the dream.

tough loss lordswing. mercury didn't decide to play any defense until the second half. blew my under bet by a few points too.

ip banned where? pinny?

i like the flyers +1.5, but chicago hasn't been the kind of team that plays tight games. they usually score in bunches or allow goals in bunches. betting the game, flyers +170 is much more attractive than flyers +1.5 -180.

my ufc source thinks there's something weird about the sanchez line. you would think sanchez would be a much bigger fav. but the highest it's been is around -220. maybe it's because of the beat down bj penn gave him or maybe because the oddsmakers are expecting a close fight. so i would stay away for sftc purposes.

bisping should be a safe pick though

and i like evans over rampage.

flyers
bisping
evans

Nice picks.

marbles, right now I'm looking at San Diego, France, and WNBA.

Congrats Lordswing. Paid 340 Points for winning May

yisman · 05-30-10, 02:03 PM

mex, the month isn't over yet. Technically I could catch him, although I don't think I'm going to make enough picks.

Get to 16 and I'll throw in an extra 20 points for you on top of the 340, best of luck.

I obviously know that. You posted earlier that you weren't even going for 16. You need 6 wins to win May. I am sure Lordswing would send the points to you if you went for it.

yisman · 05-30-10, 02:42 PM

yeah, but that adds extra rake for lordswing. Oh well.

Just worry about your 6 wins first. The rest will fall in to place.

Are you playing June?

yisman · 05-30-10, 03:04 PM

yeah, but I'm waiting first to see if I can pull it off.

I'm rolling the dice on San Diego.

yisman · 05-30-10, 06:50 PM

thanks lordswing. That really was a roll of the dice.

Won it in the 11th, finally.

Ended in time for me to decide whether to make another pick today.

Despite what marbles said, I can't get myself to risk the streak on the Sparks.

I would pick them if I had to, but I'd rather find a pick tomorrow.

Twins also would rather avoid.

losturmarbles · 05-30-10, 07:08 PM

they're both going to win yis!

but if you had picked either, they would probably lose.

yisman · 05-30-10, 07:16 PM

I did take the Sparks instead of the Twins on another site, but that's because I have a W8 there and it's a weekly contest ending on Sunday.

This is my last chance to send it to a tiebreak after I won with SD.

Not sure about tomorrow. No big favorites, although I don't have odds for TB/TOR (can't be a big fave there) and lacrosse.

In the group where the top is an inactive 11, I'm tied, but he has a .609 winning percentage and I'm at .607. Man oh man.

yisman · 05-30-10, 08:29 PM

Sparks getting absolutely whipped in the third.

losturmarbles · 05-30-10, 08:37 PM

these stupid broads won't get back on defense. dream eating them up on transition and dominating in the paint. under is blown too. booo!

yisman · 05-30-10, 08:45 PM

the sparks remained in the locker room when halftime ended

needless to say, the ending was predictable

and yeah, the game is going wayyyy over the total.

Atlanta now 6-0 and they have a 2.5 game lead in the East

yisman · 05-31-10, 02:45 PM

the three people that had a shot to catch the leader all had 8 runs or fewer, and while the pick looked great, the Yankees scored 6 in the bottom of the seventh (sftc had over/under 8.5 runs in 7 innings).

Legendary prop.

2-1 in the 7th inning stretch and everyone assumed it was decided.

So the winner will be
dmastered Entry - dmastered

who had 21

yisman · 05-31-10, 04:53 PM

Duke wins in OT@!!

tltaylor89 · 05-31-10, 04:59 PM

This is the biggest headache game I have ever played.I have no patience.

yisman · 05-31-10, 05:03 PM

taylor quit complaining. I'm on the verge of making history here. This is my 4th W12 and I've yet to crack 13, where you can get a free t shirt.

Thinking Rays or Flyers.

lordswing · 05-31-10, 10:08 PM

Starting off with "any other result" for the month, best of luck everyone

yisman · 05-31-10, 10:12 PM

it's still in place I guess.

0/4 when on a W12.

Streak: 0

2 or Under Goals for the soccer game.

lordswing · 06-03-10, 07:29 AM

Meh day overall, just going with the under on the tennis match

lordswing · 06-03-10, 11:45 PM

I'm on Tulsa -165 atm, but any advice on the tennis match? Nadal looks like a huge favorite, maybe under? Golf W/D is the other I was looking at.

MexicanStallion · 06-04-10, 01:44 AM

I am going with Nadal Under.

lordswing · 06-04-10, 09:36 AM

Thanks, still considering with plenty of time left

And the "Streakmaster" is such an idiot it's great, looks like a couple of streakers had time to switch from W/D to W after the results of 2 holes, and it's biting them in the ass

MexicanStallion · 06-04-10, 11:58 AM

Could Kingsbury78 (49ers4life) join the new SBR Group? Thanks

lordswing · 06-04-10, 03:27 PM

So Tulsa's ~-120 now, definitely laying off.

e: Meh, Tulsa and Yankees are both ~-120, nothing's better
