I'm sorry, but umm, did anyone believe at any time that the Packers were better than the Cowboys?
I didn't think so because if the Cowboys were here you'd have them as odds on favorites.
Great teams show up in the playoffs.
The Giants were simply better than the Cowboys despite the game being played in Dallas.

The main weapon of the Giants is their pass rush.
Against the Cowboys OL and Romo's fast release, it was not effective till the late 3rd period.

The Packers offence is based on the Passing game which favours the Giants defencive style of play.
However the Packers OL is not nearly as good as the Cowboys was and Favre not as quick as young Romo.
The result is that Favre will get sacked, which will force the Packers to run the ball more than they should.
The Packers running game cannot compare to the 3 RB running game of the Giants.
This is a miss-match.

PROPS

New York Giants @ Green Bay Packers

1)Base: QB Sacks made 4.5 .................Bet on the Over = 1.80

Combine in tickets of 3 with the following:

2)Rushing Yards-Brandon Jacobs 78.5 ...Bet on the Over = 1.75
3)Rushing Yards-Ryan Grant 96.5 ..........Bet on the Under = 1.80
4)First half points - 20.5 .......................Bet on the Under = 1.70
5)Second half points - 20.5 ...................Bet on the Under = 1.70


Total = 6 bets

123-pays = 5.67
124-pays = 5.35
125-pays = 5.35
134-pays = 5.50
135-pays = 5.50
145-pays = 5.20

Bet $1000 on each bet = $6.000

Win the base and any two wins = $5.200 $5670
Wn the base and any three, wins = $15.900 $16.670
Win the base and all four, wins = $32.570

Defencive gambling is the only way to go here.
I strongly disagree with any offencive style of betting.

Ok, WHIP, so you rationalized the Giants bet (I'm a Giants fan myself).

So, you think SD will make the game close, or will the Chargers win outright?

EDIT: So you figured that SD will beat the Cheaters, er Patriots outright? Er how, if Jacksonville couldn't do it?

Come Febuary 3rd, I don't see why it would be suprising to any NFL fan to see:
LaDanian Tomlinson
Anotnio Gates
Shawne Merriman and Shaun Phillips.

winning the Superbowl
They all deserve to wear the ring.

deadbeater, what I am saying is that they're gonna take the money!.
The money wagered on the Patriots -14.5.
Also, I don't see any reason for them not to take the very large sum of long term bets this week.

Jacksonville? Who TF is Jacksonville?
How can anyone compare the Jaguars to the Chargers?

Look, Peyton Manning would have beat Tom Brady.

The Colts didn't get a chance to cause they clashed against a superior team.
Lets not forget the CB's Quentin Jammer and Antonio Cromartie. Has nobody been watching?
The San Diego's defence is well equipped to stop The Patriots offence.

Their offence? LaDainian Tomlinson, Michael Turner and Darren Sproles, make up a hell of a running game.

What makes you think that the Patriots will be able to stop these guys?

Thx

NHL
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Detroit Red Wings @ Anaheim Ducks

The game is tommorow night, but I can't understand why the Red Wings are favorites here.
Detroit would be playing the 2nd day in a row while the Ducks will be rested.
Anaheim is a better team and will clearly play the well rested Giguere.
I don't usually recommend hocksy games, but at 1.85, you got to take it!

Bet on the Anaheim Ducks!

Hey, they may actually, you know, lower the odds that the Pats may win by, so you may have to take the Pats and give the points. Aw heck, I'll still bet on the Giants vs the Cheaters.

Dude, I'd bet on the Giants in this game if they were 2.5 point favorites.
They are gonna win it! Jacobs and Strahan will wear a ring!

New York Giants vs New England Patriots [-10+]

take the points and the "just happy to be there" Giants. Everything tells me to take the Pats as they will finish with an undefeated season and probably do it with a 20+ point victory. Since I am always wrong.... take the giants.

my G*d if they freakin win this game, I'll never hear the end of it from my NY relatives.

Lumberjim, at least this way you can say your team lost against the superbowl champs.
And Superbowl champs they will be.
Too much money on the line!
