NBA
I like the Spurs to start to role. Manu is back to his self and pop will keep these guys going. Looking for spurs to go on their ATS run.
Spurs -12
Also Like the Nugs to cover the 4 against the cavs who continue their long road stretch. As the cavs are very good at home, only mediocre on the road.
CBB
I like Memphis to flex their muscle against Tennesee. Memphis -10.5
And going into PC territory here, but I like Creighton in a revenge games against Bradley. Creighton -7.5.
Enjoy your bets
2006 record
1-2

Even though you have a horrible cheer (ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK blah blah blha KU) I have to tell you....
YOU ROCK!!!!
I have never seen someone who nails not only one conference but two. When it comes to my Big 12 and the MVC you are un-matched. Keep up the good work. It is cappers like you that keep GP strong.
The Hive
PS-This praise of PC is in no way a knock on other solid cappers but rather a props shoutout to one of our best. Thank you.

My plays today on the Ice.
Detroit travels to Columbus which should be a great match-up to watch. Detroit 13-1-1 in last 15 meetings, including three wins this season, but let's try and take a dog who are 4-1 in last 5 and on a 4-0 run at home play on:
Columbus +1.5 2*
Dallas host Atlanta which has dominated the series and have won all eight meetings with Atlanta my play is on:
Dallas ML 3*

Ok ladies and gentlemen, seeings as I quit my job this week and am riding out my 2 weeks as a grunt and a lackey and well frankly doing nothing, I actually had time this AM to do some proper capping. After looking over today's card I have found three (3), yes three games I like alot. So here goes:
Clemson +4 GOW
UCLA -6.5
Iowa -11.5
My current posted CBB record is 2-2 which is not by any means steller, I am hoping to get back on track tonight with these 3 plays.
GL if you roll with me.

...I'm still looking at Indi State/Drake and Creighton/Bradley. I will for sure have a play on K State/ texas A and M and then a play on either the Drake or Bradley game.
B Hive..thanks for the props...as always, this site has TONS of bad ass cappers. I shine in MLB and Hoops, I ride like a mofo on football sides. That's the best thing about this site...you follow out who to ride and who has insight and you can make a killing. For instance, I lean on Slam, Madx34, Axd717, GTNP, and other for Northeast plays. I lean on Como, Billz, Sunday, and Vegas hard during football season. I ride Joe Weaver on Pitt...etc..it's all about learning who to follow in what discipline. Takis, Teeks in hockey etc..it's all good. In fact, PH ball saved me big money when he tells me Boise State sucks and why would you back them. He was right on when I was gonna play on em.
Anyways, I just think this site has tons of great cappers. I appreciate the props, but I'm just one of many. You hit it on the head, GP is a machine that cranks out winners...we just have many specialized cappers. Or at least that's my take. I'll be back tonight with 2 plays...haven't looked at NBA in a while.
NBA: 12-8-1 ATS (1-0 GOW)
College 37-21-2 ATS (3-1 GOW, 2-0-1GOM)
Mo Valley: 19-6-2 ATS (pushed on SIU )
Big XII:15-9ATS (hit on Texas, Texas 1H..lost on ISU under
Out of Conference3-6 ATS
NFL Post-season 5-1 ATS

ok fellas my plays since i stopped gambling are now 11-7 after st. joes embarassed me. However, this would be a big play for me as I llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee this game.
Take miss st. +5 1/2 over lsu. You're gonna give a home team 5 1/2. No way. Miss st. is too good defensively. THis game is gonna be close from start to finish. It wouldn't suprise me to see miss st. pull away late and win outright. 5 1/2 is a fucking gift. This would be a 12 unit play for me. Big play
gl if you play it.
oh one more thing, the best part of all of this, the play is free. lol

Manhattan +3 at Marist (7:30 PM EST)
Manhattan travels to Poughkeepsie, NY tonight to face the Red Foxes of Marist. The Jaspers have quietly won their last 10 games. This includes their last 4 on the road. They are 6-0 in conference play, but for some reason they are still flying below the radar. They have the 6th longest win streak in the country right now. Marist has lost 3 of their last 4 games on their home court, losing by 9 to Canisius, lost by 6 to Ohio University, and lost by 3 to Iona ! Manhattan, by the way, soundly thrashed that very same Iona team by 19 points ..... on Iona's home court! I see great value here getting 3 points in this! Manhattan could very easily win this one SU !! Take the points!!

2-0 ats yesterday: Tonight a young Panther team goes on the road vs Rutgers laying 3 ! Got a "gut" feeling this is going to be Pitts first loss of the year or they win a Barnburner at best! First real "Bandbox Atmosphere" for the kids tonight at the RAC and Duby seems to always light Pitt up! For added effect coming in off Louy which had to be huge for the young players! RUTGERS +3 GL!

All right fellas...feelin the love and I'm going to release 2 plays. I'm big on the BIG XII GOW and average on the Valley:
This is a lenghty post so if you get bored or just want the play go to the bottom
Let's start with my Big XII GOW:
(By the way, I release 1 GOW a week, 1 GOM a month, 1 GOY a year, etc. and by no means Mr LV69 should you change your label. My superstitious ass would be worried if you changed the name of your plays)
BIG XII GOW:
Roll on Colorado -18..here's why.
For those of you that follow the Big XII, you know the Baylor program is in a shambles. Remember 3-4 years ago when a Baylor player was murdered by another player? The team received the "death penalty," the coach was brought up on conspirancy felony charges to obstruct justice, Lucas went to Okie State and took them to a final four, the NCAA hammered them with sanctions and killed recruiting for the Bears.
My point..the Bears program was in a shambles 3 years ago and they started the "healing" process. Well guess what..they just got whammed again with no post season hoops and only able to play games in the Big XII. (To insure road team revenue that is legally binding by BIG XII..point..Baylor would have been banned from hoops in 05-06 if it wasn't for the Smart BIG XII AD's in my opinion.)
This team is terrible..according the Vegas Insider power rankings..Colorado is listed in the 80 strength bracket. To give you an idea Duke is #1 at 93 point power ranking...I'll post a partial piece of it..
Notice that Baylor is 67..look at the strength of the teams around Colorado's and Baylor's rank...
NCAA BASKETBALL POWER RANKINGS
RATING TEAM WIN LOSS PREVIOUS CHANGE
93 Duke 16 0 92
87 Connecticut 15 1 87
87 Villanova 11 2 87
86 Memphis 15 2 86
86 Texas 14 2 86
85 Arizona 10 6 85
85 Florida 16 0 85
84 Boston College 12 4 83
81 Iowa 13 4 81
81 Louisville 13 3 81
81 Oklahoma 10 4 81
81 Xavier 11 2 81
80 Colorado 11 3 80
80 Florida St. 11 3 78
80 Kansas 10 6 82
80 Kentucky 10 6 82
80 UAB 12 3 80
80 Wake Forest 11 5 79
79 Alabama 9 6 79
79 Arkansas 12 4 79
79 Clemson 13 4 79
79 George Washington 13 1 79
79 Missouri St. 11 4 79
79 N. Iowa 16 3 79
67 Appalachian St. 7 10 67
67 Ark.-Little Rock 9 7 67
67 Austin Peay 10 7 67
67 Baylor 0 2 67
67 Canisius 4 10 67
67 E. Kentucky 8 8 67
67 E. Washington 6 10 66
Allright, notice the caliber of competition..if that isn't enough to convince you that Baylor is downright god awful (this ranking is based on stats, not votes or opinion)..consider this:
**Colorado is 8-4 ATS on the year
**Colorado is a scoring machine at home..in their last 5 they have scored 75, 116, 83, 117, and 96 at home...Do the math but that's damn near 100 points a game. Granted it's against Dartmouth, UC Irvine, Kansas, Savannah State, and Mercer.....OH YEAH>>>>>DID I MENTION 4 of those 5 are ranked higher than Baylor on the VI power rankings.
**Baylor has managed 48 and 61 points respectively with 9 suited players for the year. You think they can run with the 100 point average Buffaloes in the Boulder thin air...think again! Only reason KU beat Colorado there was the young athletes.
*Baylor just lost to T. Tech...How easy was Texas yesterday against T Tech...you tellin me a Bob Knight led team can do no better than a 34 point loss against an instate rival? My point, this T Tech team DESTROYED BAYLOR.
**Baylor has absolutely nothing to play for. Their road games are basically the reward for sticking out with the program in a terrible year. Ask any of our Texas cappers who read about this stuff....Baylor is gonna be known for their hoops team...THE LADY BEARS.
Fellas, it's obvious I'm on the Colorado Buffaloes. I will play both 1H and game...the Game is my posted play on the Game of the Week. As I continue to play with the book's money, I am going to roll hard on this game for 10 units. (That's a big bet for me)
Line as of right now 4:00 CST in sunny PCB: is 18 1/2.....
Mo Valley REgular Play:
I am rollin on Bradley +7 1/2. If you've read my posts before you know I think Bradley is extremely athletic. There's a reason they tapped that BlueJay ass at home. Creighton has lost Funk for the year, but as stated, his backup is just as good and will flourish. I'm on Bradley because I think they match up well with Creighton in this one. Usually Creighton is a road ATS warrior and average at home, but they are doing well at home and so so on the road. Creighton is coming off a very impressive SU and ATS win on Sunday and I think the extra day of prep for Bradley pays off tonight. The Qwest Center (AKA the BIRDCAGE!!) will be rockin, but I think BlueJay backers get surprised tonight by the close game.
ROLL ON BRADLEY + 7 1/2
TONIGHT'S CARD:
BIG XII GOW ON COLORADO -18 1/2 (10 units for me)
MO VALLEY REG PLAY: BRADLEY + 7 1/2 (3 units)
Pickriding Pak's freebie (3 units)
Colorado 1H -10...5 units
Jt's Play (3 units)
Pickride BP 3 units
Take care good luck whatever your on.

fellas i'm upgrading my miss st. play. I really like this play a lot. Public all over lsu. My line hasn't moved at +5 1/2 but I see its gone down to 5 and even 4 1/2 at some places.
For those from a while ago this game would be considered a motherload play. I don't have many those but I feel very strong about this game. Again gl if you play it.
