Wednesday
Nothing at all this evening. Washington and New Jersey were losers and Carolina held on to win 2-1. 19-23 -1.1 on the hockey season. Full slate tomorrow
Tuesday
Last night’s MNF game was an exercise where no one won who watched the game, so taking the points and then watching CSI and/or falling asleep was the +EV in life move. NHL gets going in about 20 minutes so I’ll keep this short. One play tonight which is Vancouver @ Washington -115. Two other games which are worthy of your consideration are New Jersey +180 @ Pittsburgh and Carolina +120 hosting Nashville. I’m only at breakeven on this hockey season after the recent downswing and hopefully will get back on the plus side soon
Monday
It’s currently raining and the temperature is steadily dropping in New York this evening, so get ready for some additional fumbling! Jets are the play tonight if you can find +7, though I am personally passing even if it gets there. As mentioned Tampa was a winner yesterday but somehow conspired to only cover and not win outright.
Nothing doing in hockey tonight thankfully, though Tampa @ Rangers should at least be good to watch. NBA because I’m an idiot:
Minnesota +15 @ Clippers
MNF
NFL:
Jets vs Dolphins Under 42
My god what a boring game. 62% of O/U bets on the Over
NHL:
Canadiens/Avalanche OVER 5.5 (+115)
NFL Week 13
TB +4 (+125) and ML +215 vs CIN
I agree with Lou here. Tampa has been the “crappy team that I bet on because they cover” in the last month for me (Lou has his Rams); their defense is not bad and Lovie Smith is turning the roster over nicely to a Cover 2 scheme (which is why Barron was traded) after an initial bad transition period. Tampa might be good next year if they figure out the QB situation. Cincinnati is one of the more erratic teams in the league, they should win this game by 2 TDs, but they’ll keep Tampa around and win by a FG most of the time here.
Baltimore -6 (-110) vs SD
San Diego’s 4rd cross country trip this year (they lost 31-0 in Miami few weeks ago); Baltimore has always played better at home and has been a yearly play for me when they play at M&T Bank Stadium.
Oakland at St Louis Under 42
Black and white game of the week
Colts -10 (+110) vs WAS
The juice got bumped up, so I called as I think Luck > McCoy. Although my D.C. under bet (7.5) is slightly in jeopardy with McCoy in there (Washington needs to run the table).
TEASER (+275):
BAL -6
NE +3
IND -10
TB +4
0-fer
0-for-Saturday here yesterday as I was 0-4 on amateur football and 0-1 on hockey with the Devils losing 3-1. I did find a winner on Calgary right before gametime but was out & about and didn’t get it posted here or on twitter.
NFL today and there’s only one game I actually like and that’s the Tampa getting +6 and +200 hosting the Bungles. I have leans on Washington, Jacksonville and New Orleans but am passing on all three.
There is a chance I’ll have a few NBA games this evening. Good luck today
UPDATE: Tampa covered but somehow did not win. NBA tonight:
Minnesota +13 @ Portland
Toronto -7 @ Lakers
Saturday
2-0 yesterday with Sacramento covering. I have a quiet 5 wins in a row in NBA as does Sean with his Celtic overs that are now 6-0. Buffalo won in hockey and Edmonton lost in overtime because I am running bad. Likely nothing in any sports other than amateur tackle football. I’ll try an update before the evening games but here is what we have so far:
Syracuse +12 @ Boston College
North Texas +5 @ UTSA
Connecticut +21.5 @ Memphis
UPDATE: Syracuse and UNT were both losers. Wake Forest +17 @ Duke
Hockey: New Jersey +155 @ Islanders
First of Many
If he falters there are many to take his place
Friday
1-0 for me yesterday as Detroit won easily and I passed on both LSU and SF last night. A quick note to Sean and anyone else is that the fading the broadcast teams only tends to work when the line is under a touchdown. Edmonton and Buffalo are showing up on my hockey list today but I am not taking either of those teams while mired in a losing streak. A college football game to start the day: Ball State + 10 @ some MAC team.
UPDATE: Ball St. covered the 10 and won by 17! NBA tonight because I’m an idiot, Sacramento + 12 @ San Antonio
