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.
Saturday Plays
NCAA Teaser:
Texas at Kansas 42
Notre Dame -10 vs Syracuse (Meadowlands)

Here’s to all bettors not hitting the goal post while trying to throw a pass today
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
Saturday Baseball
Cubs +111 with Doubront going against the Dodgers.
Late Night Picks
UFC Japan:
Gomi +425 vs Miles “Fury” Jury
Mark Hunt vs Roy Nelson Fight does not complete two rounds -110 and one round +185
NCAA Saturday:
SMU v Texas A&M Over 59
Friday
Falcons and the Over were embarassingly easy winners last night. One leaner in baseball tonight and that’s San Diego with nothing much else doing. Hockey training camps have opened so we are only a few weeks away from real games. October 8th & 9th is opening night.
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.
