    JJ is a teacher with a vigorous schedule.... later this morning, at 11:00 am eastern, is his "Best Way to Cross Swords" Class....

    fortunately, he won't have to futilely attempt the demonstration himself, but will be using two hunky key west evacuees for the class room demonstration.....

    we all know it's damn to impossible to cross this miniature sword with anything:

    Was a very good one yesterday w loins/bills. Turned out points didn't matter but did keep from having to sweat out a lions comeback or bills cover as +8.5 or bills winning was never in jeopardy.

    NEVER wager teasers. They are sucker bets. You will not win in the long run. If you play teasers, you have NO faith in your ability to pick winning teams, which is, in fact, the case of 90% of the bettors in here.

    We should have a segment on one of the SBR podcasts or YT channels where QH just berates posters for being losers and air bettors.

    This is so true, one of my best friends I can never get to actually take a stand on a game's regular line (when I do he's like Lang). At this point it's like he handicaps solely with teasers in mind, breaking my rule of "If you don't like them against the line, don't put them in a teaser"

    And he doesn't win long term, of course.

    I think that's good thinking as well. Even though some games will always be close, if you're wrong on the side, you very well could get tease killed.

    After he done telling us how teasers have no merit and how only suckers use a proven winning strategy w NFL (2 team 6 point Wong teasers) he can explain all the "skill" it takes him to bet -500 and larger ml favs in NCAA football.

    In the right spot teasers make sense. To play them regularly can put you in the hole quickly. I like a good 3 Teamer every now and then in NFL on totals.

    If you stick w 2 team 6 points and use them properly they are a weapon. The problem is guys think everything looks easy when they add points and get carried away w more teams, including totals, etc etc. 2 team 6 pointers that cross 3 and 7 a very good start. Add few more criteria that I think ups the percentages even more , only play one a week and at end of year you will notice you prob only lost 3-4 in the 17 week season as I've posted in season long threads going back at least last 5 years (other than last year as I wasn't able to post).

    lost 2 strait up bets, lost 1 teaser and lost one parlay in week 1. and then i pushed a college game strait up. to go down 4 units so far. I talk myself out of betting the bills to win and talked myself out of betting the panthers to win and then i talked myself out of betting the colts to lose big... I get in my own way it seems. I tend to not see the value in less exciting games and teams... Need some practice and advice or I am just gonna give this up lol.
