    Not sure. I looked at tonight and don't like it. Don't like baseball today either. I'll post some picks saturday morning between 8-9am.

    Keep it that way. My parents are the best but they are pretty straight laced. Dad doesn't drink or gamble. They found out I do this last year and now every fucking day when Im watching any sports with them, they always ask "Who do you have in this game" or "Did that TD hurt or help you"

    Most annoying thing ever

    Yeah but I never play on my own team when they're the favorites. I wouldn't want Texas to win by 3 and still be pissed off because I lost.

    My feelings exactly. Plus, as objective as I feel... I'm probably not.

    I'll more than likely bet on your horns for you this weekend.

    I don't like it when I tell my friends who I have for that very reason. I don't think I could handle it if my mom or dad asked me that every time I watched sports.

    My dad likes to bet on games too. I've got him using vegasinsider and thespread now. He doesn't bet a game though unless he can watch it.

    Me and my buddies all bet on the games. Usual saturdays are just us 4 in front of the 3 TVs with laptops going betting away.

    None of my friends bet. They all understand the concept of it and I ask for their opinions a lot. They just don't do it.

    The reason I say I don't like my friends knowing what I have on a team is because I'll usually get shit like, what are you thinking or that's terrible.

    Normal fans and betting people are two complete different things. Like last night I take some bets for a buddy of mine who does it for fun and nothing serious. He dropped 500 on Arizona -2.5. I was like are you sure because I am really like STL as a Home Dog. He was like yeah Arizona will beat them by 30.

    Betters see those trap type games. Normal fans do not

    I do a pickem with some buddies that don't bet and they just do it for fun. Every week they take teams like Minnesota +7 last week against Iowa or Nebraska -4 against UCLA a few weeks ago with the same mentality.

    Or they just take big public favorites every week because thats their team and of course they will cover against Scrub U.

    Tonights games are so weird.

    Utah State/BYU is such a toss up. If the QB play from the Utah & Boise State game shows up, then Utah State wins. If the QB from the rest of BYUs games, then they win big. Probably a good 2nd half type bet.

    Taking the Under in Pittsburgh/Syracuse for 2 Units. So everyone take the over. I am something like 1-6 this year on Weekdays

    I think I'm leaning Utah State/over, and Syracuse. But will probably lay off and wait until tomorrow.

    Nothing worse than that. I fucking hate people who talk about a bet after the fact almost as much as I hate people who get all excited because they selected the game in their pick 'em.

    TOP BETTING TRENDS:
    Panthers are 8-1-1 ATS vs. a team with a losing record
    Orange are 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games overall
    Under is 4-0 in Panthers last 4 road games
    Under is 8-1 in Orange last 9 games following a bye week


    So obviously the trends are for Under & Pittsburgh

    Hard to get a read on this. Cuse is a bad team but that line has moved 5 points since open (Pitt has gone from -3 to +2). Do you follow the steam or not?

    I followed the steam. I always like Syracuse in the Dome. Their QB is pretty good. I think it will be a 30-27 type game.

    haha, my dad is the one who got me into gambling when I was like 9 years old .. I've far surpassed him in every aspect though. My mom actually suggested I go back to school for statistics to help in my endeavors, which I am doing, though not specifically for this it will help.

    Just found out my book doesn't charge juice if you buy a half point and push. Bought Cuse down to 1 and didn't get charged juice!

    I believe the x is .5, there was one dude who wrote his plays like that at least.

    Correct, it means .5

    Growing up, my dads line sheets always used x instead of .5, so I've just always written it that way.
