Week 4
A lost week for me. Last Sunday was painful, I was and still am convinced I was on the “right” side with St. Louis and Minnesota last week but ended up with a pair of close losses in both cases. I also missed a couple of profitable plays in baseball being too caught up with work. Baseball ends today with no notable games as the betting drops off significantly in September. NFL with this bye week has not a whole lot looking good either. One one game I have today and it Minnesota +3 +110 or +3.5 -105 hosting Atlanta. This will be a 2u game for me.
Any updates to be posted as we go along. Hockey starts soon, thankfully.
Thursday Night Football
WAS v NYG Over 45.5
Week 3
My Week 2 sucked; here’s to a rebound (although I’ve had a good week thereafter the disaster on Sunday):
Dallas -1.5
Yes, I am sucker. But the Rams’ Shaun Hill might play instead of Austin Davis; which is funny because the line probably got suspended due to the fact the Cowboys become bigger FAVORITES if he plays lol
I thought the Rams might be the worst team in the NFL; but nope, that’s is Tampa Bay. The Bucs should be relegated for the uniforms alone. Then this happens:
What an absolutely perfect snap. https://t.co/CpzTqmBqsQ

Baltimore Pick (-105)
Got this at a pick’em on Monday; it’s now -2. Ravens coming off of a long week layoff, and I can’t resist anytime to bet against Mike Pettine (although the “short Saints on the road” might be the bet of the year). The Saints might be fraudulent, alot like this dive by an Army player:

Seattle -5
They are at home, coming off a loss, and keep murdering teams in that building.
Vikings/Saints Over 49
Now at 50. I’m putting this in a 4 team teaser too:
TEASER: +375
NO/MIN OVER 49
Seattle -5
GB +1
IND -1
On a last note; make sure when YOU score a goal, to hug a loved one right after, yellow card be damned:

Sunday
Cubs were an 8-7 winner yesterday coming all the way back from 7-1 down in the late innings for a miracle cover. Not much doing in baseball today. Two NFL plays this morning:
Dallas @ St. Louis +1 -103
Minnesota +10.5 -117 @ New Orleans
EDIT: Found a baseball game Miami +145
Latw NFLArizona +3
Thursday
Nothing doing tonight in either MLB of NFL. Tampa at 6.5 +100 is tempting but still a pass. Nothing remotely close in baseball. I do like the over 46 if anyone can find it.
NFL Week 2
JAX +6 (-115)
Me and Lou will keep hitting that “DO NOT PASS” line
NYG -3 (+110)
Yes, I am a sucker
SF -7
I made the mistake betting on Jay Cutler in a teaser last week. I will not this week. Also a hedge with my season under 49ers bet. Also:

TB -6 (+110)
#gamblingadvisoryalert on St. Louis. We might have to bet against them every week until they figure things out. Probably worst team in the league, I have friend who has them at 50-1 to be worst record, THAT’S looking good. The main problem? QB. When they lost Bradford, they lost “1 of 64” meaning one of the top starter or backup QBs in the NFL. Now? I am not sure they have 1-of-108.

NFL Sunday
I’ll get a summary up here in the next few days. When I went to sleep last night, I was near certain I’d be taking San Diego this afternoon, but their line has dropped two points in the interim and that’s too much of a line move to deal with. Same thing with Minnesota, where +3 turned into +6 with the Peterson thing and it’s now back to +3.5. One day I will have the confidence to make those kinds of plays during the week, but for now I am slumming it on Sunday morning with the rest of the degenerates in America.
Browns +5 and Giants -1 are my plays for the 1:00 games. Giants are a leaner in baseball but Kershaw is involved :(
NCAAF Plays
More to come! All plays @ 16
