I wanna bet on a game but I just don't like any.

I don't see how all of you like Oregon giving 12
I hope Oregon wins, but neither of these teams has played anyone

It is my belief - and I could very well be wrong because I've never tracked it - that you could win money by assembling a bunch of guys (5, 10, 15) and betting against the team most of them like.

That reminds me of one of the scenes in Let It Ride. Loved that movie. "I'm having a really good day."

We might just see this if we keep running totals on our bets. I'm sure there's going to be a trend in there. (other than us just sucking!)

honestly, the only thing I can think of..well 2 things long term, to make money

1. dont gamble - bookie. Cause you'll never win long term. Incredibly hard.

2. if you do somehow win, bet against the public. Watch line movements, and for the love of god watch Pinnacles lines, they are very sharp. If I see a line is like 70% bettors on 1 side and the lines moving to make them more playable, obviously the other team is the play.

tonights play like that

Marshall +12.5 (its +12 now)

79%!! of people are on them, or so it says on wagerline.com, and the line has gone from -13.5 to -12. Are you kidding? Marshall sucks.

What's ironic is I went the public side on another, but watched Pinnacles retarded line movements

Houston -20

I just think they manhandle them. Friday at home, Case Keenum can show his stuff.

One of my favorite movies of all-time. Just thinking about that movie makes me smile. Here, have a great video recap of it.

I swear, I'll be on just about anything... it's probably why I lose money. :-)

I'm not sure why but Betus still has WV @ Marsh @ -14. If/when it drops to 12.5, I'll play it.

Just my opinion is all, I don't think Troy has any kind of defense this year.

the Pokes have a new OL, new QB, new secondary, banged up DL and a history of an inability to beat teams they're not a million times better than

I'm playing Troy if it hits 14.5, but hopefully it lands on 14 and we can both win

I saw 12.5 for about 2min on my phone... then lost my connection and it was back @ 14. I smell shadiness!
