  • Taken it in the Shorts

    Is something I am not accustomed to and I dont plan on getting used to the feeling anytime soon. A 11-4-1 night in the NIT`s last nite cleard the path for a little play time in the sandbox today.

    Dateline : Today & Tomorrow

    Subject : #13 Seeds

    Culprits : E. Tenn. St. / Ill. Chicago / UTEP / VCU

    The history on these games is common knowledge and its our duty to use it to our advantage when it allows. I have been looking at these for days now and came to the conclusion that a play on three of them is solid , but the fourth looks like it could be a wash. Since I was looking for a parlay combo , naturally the bigger the better but one must stay within the realm of possibility to achieve a pay-out.

    The books see it like this :

    UTEP + 6.5 (ML + 250)
    Ill Chi. + 8.5 ( ML + 330)
    E Tenn St + 9.5 ( ML + 400)
    VCU + 12.5 ( ML + 900)

    So it is clear (or is it ?) that they place greater value on the top three , given that they are not idioits and do thier job well I cant help but feel that a mistake has been made here and will try to capitalize on what I see as a glaring overlook.

    Now I have to cast my stones and try to hittem where it hurts and if history is any judge I expect to be in the winners circle by tomorrow.

    Best of Luck to All

    You need people like me so you can point your fingers and say Hey there's the bad guy! So, what does that make to you. Good guys? Don't kid yourselves. You're no better'n me. You just know how to hide and how to lie. Me, I do not have that problem. I always tell the truth, even when I lie!

            Awesome call on both UTEP and VCU so far. You almost cleaned house on that VCU. That would have been awesome for you

              Well folks :

              orientalhawn thinks that Mama bet the ML which is not quite correct (see above) ......... But my Wager Daddy Homer knows which cup his sweetheart drank from and if all comes true tomorrow (like it did today) ?

              I will be on the beach with " not a care in the world "

                I hear ya mama

                I did the unthinkable and followed a couple of other posts today that cost me more than I care to admit and sadly were contrary to my own......I had been making it back slow but sure and then ......sure as heck tried two more late games "against my grain and picks" and lo and behold they both flame out BIG TIME and cost me yet again......! STUPID STUPID on my own part and mine alone! Thankfully my own plays have gone a somewhat respectable 9-3 for the day thanks but no thanks to my Wolves losing and yet drilling the total and the second half total as well.

                Soooooo....Memphis...!!

                MAY YOUR PUPS ALWAYS PROSPER
                AND YOUR MARTINI'S ALWAYS WET
                PICK THEM THE WAY YOU SEE THEM
                AND YOUR HEAT WILL MAKE THEM SWEAT!


                Best of Luck to you this Tourney Year Mama!! And congrats on your wins......PS......The Flames should burn out of control! Try that one for a W!

                Unihorn.....and as Len would say...over.....and...out! BEST OF LUCK TO YOU AND ALL!! Goldvike

                  GV :

                  After a wonderful run on the parlay-train yesterday , I am playing on the mans money and have several outstanding 3 teamers left open . 13 seeds went 2-0 & 12 seeds went 1-1 and a 3 team ( Manhattan/ VCU / UTEP) put me in the plus. Also a VCU/UTEP/Ill Chi. & a UTEP/VCU/E. Tenn St & a VCU/Manhattan/W. Mich & a Manhattan/UTEP/Memphis & a VCU/ UAB/ BC outstanding .

                  And to top it off I am already a winner with a strong feeling that there is more to come yet , and a bit of bad news also here . Last nite I fell over one of my greys in the hallway and got a nasty bump on my noggin (hit a table) and the skull-cramps have set in and I might go see a Doctor this afternoon ....... kinda reminds me of the famous " Help Ive fallen & cant get up "

                  Anyway I am feeling fine except for the head (theres a winner ) and will toss some totals out later today (10-6 yesterday)

                  GB almost had to give me my up&comence lastnite

                    A knot on the head won't stop you. Take your laptop with you to the doctor. Hope you are feeling ok.

                    Will be looking for those totals!!!!

                      Yep, MMM, and I would have done it!

                      One point, one lousy point...

                        GB :

                        Thats the way the ball bounces sometimes

                        But it was a heartbreaker for a 12 point dog , not to pull it off !

                        While Im here I will post a few totals for the rest of the day :

                        UAB / Wash. - O/153 (line has went-up a bunch)
                        E. Tenn. St / Cinn. - O/145.5
                        Louisville / Xavier - U/130
                        N Iowa / G. Tech - U/140
                        Richmond / Wisc. - U/117
                        Central Fla. / Pitt. O/124
                        E. Wash / Okla St - O/137

                        Monmouth / Miss St - O/137
                        Fla. AM / Kentucky - U/143

                          Almost forgot :

                          Heading out the door now and remembered that I forgot to post the NIT`s totals :

                          Austin Peay / G. Mason - O/127.5
                          R. Island / W. V. - O/127.5
                          Niagara / Neb. - O/145

                          ps - Manhattan / UTEP / Memphis was a " WINNER "

                          UAB / W Mich / E. Tenn St if they all win brings in 3 more parlays in the last two days ( stand at 2 right now)
