    Poppa's brand new bag
    I love the soccer forum since it is real nurturing community filled with brotherhood and good will, so you will probably put up with my awful picks

    I must admit I know next to nothing about this sport, but I watch and try to learn, and what else can you ask of me... but following me blindly is probably a terrible idea.

    anyways I'm just doing this for positive discussion and to track my picks, so here goes:

    Pick #1 Adelaide -1 2 units @ +110 for 2.2 units

    Since I work the graveyard shift I get the pleasure (and sometimes the agony) of watching a lot of Australian A League soccer. Picking against Perth Glory has made me lots of money through out this rotten stretch of theirs, and I'm certainly not going to stop picking against them until at least they show a little bit more fire and a lot more scoring prowess. Often Perth Glory looks completely lost at times, and plays like they are a team of several divisions lower than their opposition.

    Adelaide on the other hand, is one of the stronger teams. Well as much as I have seen, and I would gladly support them against most sides with Adelaide at home. Certainly will do so with them up against Perth Glory.

    This is Perth's 3rd game in seven days and they have a couple of injuries to worry about, one of them being their captain. Adelaide is missing their super star Leckie, but are getting back one of their play makers.

    I think Adelaide gets back to their winning ways at home, and hopefully for my sake they will win big.

                          Two losses brings my total to date 1-2 (+1 unit)

                          Going to add a basketball play for tonight and probably will call it a night

                          2 team teaser
                          Warriors +7.5
                          Golden State Warriors vs New York Nicks Under 223

                          1 unit risked to win 1 unit

                          Nicks are a bad team, and my home team Golden State is a pretty average team (especially average on the road). 7.5 points should be enough for the Warriors to come out on top versus the Nicks who are in poor form and are playing off a back to back. Then again Monta and Curry are streaky shooters and can always lay an egg, especially on the road.

                          The under is interesting, as Vegas continues to overvalue the Warriors ability to score. This is not last years run gun and fun team. 4 of the last 5 of the Warriors games have been under. I feel very confident in this under, teased or not.

                          best of luck in whatever you play

                            Well that was no good, Warriors played fairly good and won the game, but they were incredibly sloppy, especially in the first quarter giving up 5 easy gimme shots off turnovers. Just handed the Nicks 10 points, and that sloppy up tempo style prevailed through out the game. They ended up going slightly over my teased line. They won though which softens the blow to my wallet .... slightly

                            My posted record sadly falls to 1-3 (even money)

                            If you got any hot leads, thoughts please share them. Good luck guys
