What happened?

pico · 09-16-07, 08:10 PM

lost a shit load on nfl. that cincy game killed me.

SBR Lou · 09-16-07, 08:14 PM

I mean I thought Cleveland could possibly keep the game close if the Bengals made mistakes, but putting up 51 points? Didn't see that coming.

I agree. Down the stretch, all the Bengals had to do, was stop them one or two times to get right back in it. They just couldn't do it. Browns receivers open all day. I'm going to keep this game in the back of my mind.......doesn't look like this D can stop anybody. The Browns......come on.

Pico....you get em' next week man.

Don Dollars · 09-16-07, 08:25 PM

It was a horrible week for the public this week. Great week for the books.

goldengoat · 09-16-07, 08:32 PM

i knew that cinci Defense was suspect but 51 points by the Browns is ridiculous

i guess they can bounce back since the jags killed the colts that one game last year but a lot of bettors will still be pissed and rightfully so

Don Dollars · 09-16-07, 08:35 PM

I agree....I didn't think it was possible that the Cinci defense was that poor. That was a bit excessive.

eyeball · 09-16-07, 09:01 PM

I lost my ass also on miami and dallas..I'm depressed

bigboydan · 09-16-07, 09:04 PM

Just because you had a few bumps in the road. Don't become a quitter on us all Pico. Just reload and grind it out till you get your stride back.

onlooker · 09-16-07, 09:08 PM

Don't these two teams always shoot it out when they get together? I could of swore a few years ago a similar score from these two.

Seattle Slew · 09-16-07, 09:26 PM

How Cinci's defensive coordinator Chuck Bresnahan keeps his job is beyond me. Especially with a defensive coach like Marvin Lewis. He HAS to switch coordinators now. This guy should have been fired last season.

The Browns had scored something like 40 points in their last 4 games dating back to last season. What would Indy or NE score against that defense? 75?

you're an enabler, bbd. has anyone told you that you're evil.

already told my banker to send a bank wire first thing monday morning, should have money by wed/thursday. (defintely not to pinnacle this time...can't take the drama anymore)

one thing is for sure, i am not listening to my dumbass friends anymore...going with my own instincts. they're the ones who were laughing at me when i told them i am betting a shitload on wvu, michgan and the steelers. they're the ones told me to bet on the bengals...well it is my own fault listening to them.

thinking about getting couple of lucky turtles...those things live pretty long.

bigboydan · 09-16-07, 10:29 PM

Don't blame me Pico blame yourself. I didn't hold a gun to your heard did I.

Do your friends bet? I will guess no. Don't listen to them unless they have some good insight for you.

We all have rough weeks. Just pick yourself up, dust off, and get ready for next week.

Couldn't agree with you more. This isn't a new problem in Cincinnati, but to waste such a beautiful offense is criminal. Bresnahan has had ample opportunity to fix this d, maybe they should move Lewis to coordinator, I seem to remember him doing that rather welll in the past....

BTW I lost 2 dimes on the bengals today, luckily I got most of it back on the Pats this evening.

not blaming you. looking at your picks has won me more money than anyone else on the forum. you as a mod is one of the big factors that i am still posting on this forum.

i was joking, if you couldn't tell.

Oh I could tell... Hence my reply sir.

If your having a bad streak just take some time off if need be.

BBD posts his picks on here? Everybody tells me that he just brags when he wins and stays quiet when he loses?

Can you post a link to where his picks are?

SBR Lou · 09-16-07, 10:47 PM

I don't think he formally tracks them in a specific thread, but usually he chimes in with whatever side he's backing.

I know, I was just giving Pico and BBD a hard time

Let's put our minds on Week 3

SBR Lou · 09-16-07, 10:49 PM

Just don't look at the early lines right away for NFL Pico bud. Give yourself two days to relax, then when you've got a fresh mind and are ready to forget about this week I guarantee you'll bet on something juicy.

seriously...you know the feeling. it seems like nothing is going your way. all your picks turn into shit. i don't think even banging a hottie can cheer me up at this point. i just want to lay down and sleep and forgot about today. at this point money is not really the issue...i only bet with what i can afford to lose. the bad part is that i feel i have lost all confidence...this is the worst feeling in the world.

maybe if i get drunk and go beat up some kid tomorrow will make me feel like a man.

joking

WestsidePete · 09-17-07, 12:53 AM

was taking a hit on cinci as well...then took the 2nd half over and got most of it back by the end of the game....sorry to hear about your bad day picoman...

BatemanPatrickl · 09-17-07, 06:26 AM

My gut feeling was on Pittsburgh and I didn't go with that. I knew the Bills would get creamed and I read too many posts saying they would not cover. Go with your GUT from now on!

White_Tiger · 09-17-07, 03:05 PM

That game was fix. Clearly show whenever Cin score Cle start right back on Cin red zone and score again.
by the # 131k # of bets 92% on Cin AST 93% Cin ML.
that's too much $ for vegas to lose so they have to get it done.
Sorry to hear that picoman take a week off and comeback next week you'll be OK.

Yeah I agree. I love discussing games, but I try not to until after I've picked them or made up my mind. If someone else provides some insight or stuff I've overlooked then oh well, I try to be thorough but shit happens.
