  1. Got lucky with the Magic covering the other night, but I'm owed hundreds of those. I really don't know what to expect in the Magic-Celtics game today, so I hedged out of my Magic series play and accepted the miniscule loss (I will count the series play for my record, regardless of what happens). It doesn't really matter who wins because the Cavs are going to smoke either team in five games (maybe six if one of these two happens to get lucky and steal a close one). The Lakers are going to win this game at home (not sure if they will cover), but I'm licking my chops as we wait to see what the series price on the Nuggets will be. The value should be there because it's the Lakers we are talking about here. Here are the opinions because I have to give something.

    Opinions:

    HOUSTON +12.5

    BOSTON -2.5

  2. I don't know about that Jdelt, Cleveland is playing terrific basketball, but I'll bet ya whatever you want they don't "smoke" either the Celts or Magic. And you know I'm not giving ya grief, we've broken bread together. But the Hawks and the Pistons couldn't hold a candle to Orlando or BostonThis will be Cleveland's first true test of the post season and the long layoff might hurt them in game 1.

    As for game 7's, I got LA locked in big today and a small play on the side in Orlando/Boston.

    For that game total, I like the over. I think we're destined for OT in Boston/orlando.

    PLAY ON THE OVER IN BOSTON/ORLANDO!

  3. I'm with you on that over PC!

    Also adding 1H over 92.5 in the celtics/orlando game. Boston knows they're going to have to score to beat this Magic team. I think they come out firing.

  4. Let's roll #99.

    I got it at 186...sucker keeps climbing...just saw 187 1/2.

    You and Hilly would be so proud. I bet 25.00 on Stewart and 25.00 on Kenseth and 25.00 on Kyle Busch last night. Stewart paid 13:1.

    My first and only NASCAR bet of the year. I tailed BP's boy Longshanks in the preakness and hit an exacta box...figured it was free money so I went on my two educated picks (Kenseth and Busch) and hit on my wife's Stewart play. Why did she like stewart?

    and I quote"

    "Isn't he that asshole that always runs over people to win? You gotta go with him honey."

    She's a fricken genius!
