Do you have any particular New York team in mind?
he copied and pasted the first five visiting teams off of your post with the spreads. don't ask him hard questions.
This is correct. It's my new system.
Sooooooooo... I could mix up the order of the 1 o'clock games and actually make your picks for you? Hummmmm... :twisted:
So, did that strategy end him up 3-2 for the week? Fuck, that's as good as I did and I put a lot of thought into it.

I think if the Raiders play turnover free football, they cover tonight. Any turnovers and the Saints win going away.

Not having Michael Thomas may change a few things. Kamara is now the sole, main focus to stop.

Getting 5-1/2 points and playing at home, the logical bet would be Las Vegas.

Logically, you are correct. But if I were to bet this game I'd give the points and go with the Saints.

And the line has moved down to Saints -4 now. 5-1/2 seems like a bargain. If I were to bet on the Raiders, I'd be tempted to take the over as well at 48-1/2.

in my lifetime (and I quit betting football several years ago), I think I had my bookie actually have to pay me money one time at the end of the year. Every other time I wrote a check. Sometimes 2. I would bet maybe 10 or more college games and then at least 4 or 5 NFL games. No matter how you do it, the juice will kill you eventually.

I've known a handfull of pro gamblers in my life. Most didn't bet as much on NFL as they did NCAA football, as well as other sports. The NFL is under the microscope and thus doesn't leave as much oppurtunity to exploit inaccurate betting lines. I know a guy who was doing very well a few years back betting WNBA. This guy was English, I think it was just in his blood to gamble.

i would definitely agree with this. i had much better luck betting college football. there is so much emotion in how people bet those games and there is so much disparity in the amount of money bet on one side vs the other. but its a shit ton of work to keep up with it all.

That didn't look too good for that Female referee when the Raiders scored right before the half. She was standing right in front of him and just stood there looking around for someone else to signal complete or incomplete.

The only bet was taking the Raiders. You never go against a home dog on MNF. No wonder you don't bet anymore.
