OBAMA vs. VALPARAISO -2.5: So hard to resist this...

[baskets]

Valpo -2.5 here..... Wow, just wow.

This is so damn tempting. Hard not to buy a half here to -2 and watch the line flutter up to -3.5 by tip off. This Valpo is sick and solid... and they could easily be a Sweet 16 team in the dance in just a few weeks. Must resist... must resist .... must resist.... must resist

Doesnt look like Obama, but this should be a good game.

[Frisco]

Valpo is at home too, right?

[drfunkmaster]

i'm on other side! detroit wont go 0-3 to them.

[Ace_of_Spades]

Other side for me

[sweethook]

to be at home the line is so tight

[k13]

or just wait till it goes to -2 without buying a point.....

the Obama/McCallum comparison reminds me of an awful recurring segment in the Cleveland Plain-Dealer called Shaw's Spin that includes a Separated At Birth portion where readers write in with their bad comparisons. the Separated At Birth piece pretty much always include a comparison of a black national celebrity to a Cleveland sports pro, and at best, they share similar complexion (Byron Scott to Dave Chappelle was a recent one, Albert Belle to the dad from Fresh Prince was another). only thing that i see on a regular basis that's consistently less funny than Bill Simmons.

agree that Valpo is the play, BOL.

This Valpo team is solid. This is a classic "he who voted for Obama" type of game. Hard to lay off

[drfunkmaster]

Detroit wins!

[baskets]

11-7 Valpo early.

[MagicDiceFlow]

I took Valpo first half. Valpo looks like a solid well coached team .....also looks good defensively.

[Mr. Doughnut]

Really like Valpo here. Put a nice chunk of my allotted daily roll on them today.

[baskets]

13-7 Valpo

15-7


Obama angle in the house.

[Mr. Doughnut]

Had to be one of the worst offensive foul calls I've seen all year.

[baskets]

23-14

This Valpo will not be denied. Didn't play it, though. Must always have faith in the Obama angle. I'll get the next one.

[jjgold]

Good start for Val

its early though

[SASH]

im not watching the game. 2nd half under 72?

[BeardedTaco]

van wjik questionable to return? wut happend

[Mr. Doughnut]

Came back to the bench. Went back to the locker room before half. Presumably just to hop on a bike and keep it from tightening up. He should play.

[Dom177]

I doubt that kid won't come back. He's tough and he looked like he was walking with less of a limp. I'm on Detroit though so hopefully he's out!

[SASH]

took some under 72 2nd half

[RITZ]

#3 McCallum may be a good player but he is a moth when the camera lights are on him with his playground antics.

[Dom177]

took some under 72 2nd half

I like that bet, should be rather low this half

[SASH]

16 points 7 minutes in. Keep up the d detroit

[baskets]

Det wins. Proud of myself b/c I didn't bet it.


The true Obama angles are to be had in the NCAA tourney. This was a false positive. Had it been the real deal I would've hit it...

but I was disciplined.


MORAL: NEVER TRUST AN OBAMA.

[SASH]

there we go, unders 2nd half

[baskets]

good job, sir

and, actually, I did play this game live in the 2nd half when they were down and tried scaled dog numbers .. to be totally frank.

was a decent little spot for some action bets, but didn't come in

[drfunkmaster]

Detroit wins!

hope everyone listened.. they wont go 0-3 !!! too easy...

[jjgold]

I got buired on this game

I looked at the wall this AM and said why do I gamble?

[baskets]

was very surprised. when I took +8 live I thought it was solid.
