    St. Peters? Winthrop?
    What the fuk is going on in NCAA basketball? Alabama loses to St. Peters in the final minutes by a point. OK whatever. Now Wake forest loses Winthrop 83-74 Wake forest a 9 pt favorite loses to fukkin Winthrop by 9 Every day now I am absolutely dumbfounded by what i'm seeing in the world of sports. I think it's time to take a vacation from this sh*t.

      If a 12 point favorite were not able to lose a game straight up wouldn't it be foolish for bookmakers to offer a moneyline bet of only -850?

      You really need to realize that 99% of people who gamble are going to lose their money please stop complaining every time you lose or just stop gambling all together.

            isn't this why you are complaining?


            The closing point spread suggests there is only a 50% chance that Bama will win by 12 and the ML suggested an 87.34% chance of them winning not 100%.

            The reason you are losing is not because the casino is rigged or because a game was fixed, you are losing because you are making -EV wagers. If you can not learn this and find ways to spot +EV wagers than you are most likelygoing to lose long term and if you can not accept that than don't gamble.

              My turn to vent. I had Duke -6.5 and those mf'ers kept on missing front ends in the last minute and let marquette hit uncontested layups to cut it to 5. So much for Kyrie Irving being a 92% FT shooter.

                WTF are you talking about? Who the fuk is talking about the casino. I lost a ncaa basketball game and I'm pissed. Furthermore who said anything about a game being fixed here. I get it - even = lose blah blah blah. Go somewhere.

                  i was very dissapointed in Wake also. I know they aren't going to be much
                  this year but like you said .. WINTHROP ???

                  All we can do is pound Marquette over Wake tomorrow in the consolation
                  tourney game, and get our money back. Marquette will own their ass.

                    Have you been following the CBB?

                    Wake is losing to everybody and Alabama just is not that good.

                      Wake doesn't play Marquette, Marquette plays Gonzaga. Poor Zags, its one thing to schedule tough, but to play 3 ranked teams and lose to all of them is not cool. Still don't believe in kansas state though.

                        right.. was looking at MAR it's Marist not Marquette.
                        well ya think they can take Marist ? sure.. but will they cover
                        probably not they suck so bad.

                          Wake is by far the worst team in the ACC. They have 5 freshman and kicked their best interior player off the team and only play 7 guys. I was shocked they were that big of favorites anyway. Surprised they lost SU, but not surprised they didn't cover. They will be great fade material the rest of the season.
