  1. For the first time, I'm looking forward to this college ball season. I'm Canadian and I don't know squat about college sports, so I won't be capping those games. I wouldn't even know where to begin.

    so, keep posting because I'll be riding some picks throughout the season. Good luck everyone.

  3. 1-0 yesterday, with my first 5* post this year.

    Overall, 22-20 +3.1 units. Two picks today.

    Cinci/Pitt O9.5 -115 2 units

    Two good hitting teams as of late (except for Pitt last night, but my man Harang was on the mound) against two mediocre pitchers this years. Cinci games have been on a mad Over tear lately.

    Tampa -106. 2 units

    I fell for the Tampa trap against the Chisox. But, here we have the O's, who have lost 8 in a row as a favourite against the Drays with Kazmir. Tampa wins games by Kazmir and Shields and lose the rest. Ok, maybe I'm stupid enough to fall for the same trap. I just hope MoneyCanada is not on this game.

  4. don't think i'll be able to post a game today as i'm gonna be running around all day. i'm leaving for a nice r and r tomorrow so posting might be limited. at first glance though, the mets look very nice today to avoid the sweep.

  6. hey fellas...i got an early play for yall i thought i'd throw out...

    St. Louis Cardinals ML -130

    BLUGGGGHHHH I think I'm gonna be sick. Cards are 14-6 after a loss in game 3 of a series, while the astros are 6-14 after a win in game 3 of a series...i have always believed that when a pitcher comes over from the al to the nl, he is at an advantage..well, pineiro is doing just that, and guess what? he is 3-1 with an era of 3.86 and his team is 4-1 when he starts...i believe that the cards get revenge from albers from earlier in the year...plus, cards need this win huge to keep up with the cubs and brewers..they wont gain ground with a loss.

    thats my early play for today...GL if you ride!

  12. I just got back in the office.

    I have a bunch of successful trading friends. They all say hedging is for pussies. If you liked the three teamer and you hit the first two, I would let it ride. That is why you made it a three teamer and not a two teamer.

    That being said, I have heard about 100000000000 stories from guys who missed a parlay on the last game. It is why I do not play parlays. Unless I am drunk at the sportsbook. But that is another story entirely.

    Good luck whatever you do.

  14. Michigan_Mike ---

    That is odd to have two 3-teamers at once with the idea of hedging.

    Strange as it is --- All you need to do is hit one parlay for $$$$.

    That being said --- One way to hedge would be to play a small 2-Teamer against both of your winners.

    That would cover ya' --- but then again why?

    If you played SU against both of your winners ---- and hit only one parlay -

    -- you will actually PUSH the hedge - No harm no foul.

    If you hit both parlays --- you loose 2 SU bets.

    If you lose both parlays --- you win 2 SU bets.

    WTF did you parlay 3 - if you weren't going to ride it til the end?

    However, with 2 at once maybe the 2 SU bets are warranted????

  18. U 23 1H LSU/Ole Miss

    2 Units

    (Crowton's "O" will take more than 1 half to get going. Ole Miss shouldnt be able to score against this NFL "D", led by future Top 5 pick at DT: Glen Dorsey.)

    2 team 6.5 teaser (sucker bet)

    LSU-13/Utah+13

    1 Unit

    (If Utah +13 is still alive, I will look to throw another unit on Utah if I can get +7).

    GL- we are all suckers...

  19. Being a Mets fan, college football couldn’t have come at a better time.

    7-point teaser booked last night: LSU (-10.5)/VT (-20) for 2.4 units to win 2

    LSU avg margin of victory over MSU L4 years is 36+ ppg. Have beat them by at least 2 TD’s last 6 games.

    ECU starting a QB who has never thrown a pass in college and 3 OL who have never played that position. VT should be starting most possessions in ECU’s half. Looking for a defensive/ST TD as well, especially with inexperienced ECU kicking game.

    GL.

  22. Hey Guys,

    It's that time again. Here are a few games that I like.

    Utah +7 -120 (BEST BET)

    UL Monroe +4 -120

    Kent St +4 -115

    I love LSU but I can't pull the trigger with so much public money on them. I'll see what happens to the line closer to game time.

    Good Luck

  23. Well, the time has finally come. The real deal boyz and I see we have some pretty good post already up on the board..

    I looked at every game on the board for tonight. Only found 1 that had a good supporting number and 2 others that have that AHH, should I or should I not. Anyway, here is what I have..

    2007 Pre-Season " Kick-Off Special " 4-1 last 5 years...

    Utah @ Oregon State

    Man, this is a good early tilt for both clubs. We should see some points in this contest. Utah is loaded and will be impressive via the air attack, while Oregon State has a decent punch thru the air and ground. A little worried about Oregon State's QB situation and I'm not sure if their DB's can handle the constant pressure they will get from Utah's wideouts.. 7 Points seems awfully high for 2 clubs that are seperated by 8 spots on the SOS charts and 13 spots in overall rankings. I see a great opportunity for a road doggie to cover the number, if not win SU..

    Utah Utes + 7 - Kick Off Classic

    LSU @ Miss St.

    This game just looks nasty. I really don't like any numbers in this game. The side is about accurate. Flynn isnt JaMarcus and LSU's 2 top wideouts departed to the NFL. The RB is average, so where are the points coming from ?? The defense on the other hand may be the best in the nation. Them dudes are fast and physical. How is Miss St going to score ?? LSU should have no issues with the Bulldogs, but look for the starters to get yanked early in this matchup. Miss St will score off of LSU's mistakes, prolly 2 FG's or 1 TD. My play on this game >

    UNDER 46

    Good Luck on your wagers and stay prepared for a LONG season fellas !!!!

    2007 TOTALS 49-35-5 + 16.5 UNITS

    2007 Diamond Cutters 5-2 + 21.7 UNITS

    Overall Cutters 39-15 72%
