new england patriots[-9.5] vs tennessee titans

a part of me wants the titans to lose this game, but they face a weak patriots team that should not be able to stop their attack.
tennessee should be able to win their first game of the season against this well under par patriots team.
9.5 points is crazy here.

bet on the tennessee titans
59 to nothing. the weak patriots must have eaten some spinach or someshit.

reminds me of two seasons ago around this time where the patriots won by 50 something points...of course they went on for the rest of the season losing 11 games in a row against the spread ending in that loss against the new york giants.
its all about perception lj, but don't get the wrong idea about your cowboys... people's perception is that the cowboys suck...in this particular case, the cowboys actually do suck...but you always have the option of changing teams.

if the result of last week in people's perception is that the saints are gonna play the patriots in the superbowl, then we found greater success than the week before.


*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

houston texans[-3.0] vs san fransisco 49ers

this is a good match-up.
the difference in this one i think, is the 49ers defence, which is, without doubt, much greater than that of the texans.

bet on the san fransisco 49ers

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

tampa bay bucs vs new england patriots[-14.5]

the patriots loss in the superbowl 2 years ago was the most highly wagered lop-sided bet ever made in any sport.
leading up to that superbowl, anyone who had wagered on the patriots in any of their last 11 games, lost their money.
it does not alter perception, and as long as the masses, wager together, they're gonna be losing their money.
you can use those little words like conspiracy and coicidence all you want, it won't change the fact that the masses will continue to lose their money... and i will be here to collect it.

bet on the tampa bay bucs

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

dallas cowboys[-3.5] vs atlanta falcons

the falcons have a better attack than the cowboys, there is no doubt about that.
no teams defence is as bad as the cowboys, so the falcons have the upper hand there as well.
the only thing the cowboys really have in their favour in this game is their stadium.
this is lop-sided, and we get 3.5 points.

bet on the atlanta facons


*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
miami dolphins vs new orlean saints[-7.0]

yes, the saints attack is elite, its been that way for some time, no suprises.
if you've been watching, the dolphins attack has yet to be stopped.
there getting 5-6 yeards on average with that wild cat formation.
i doubt the saints defence is gonna be the first to stop them.
and if they can't, then drew won't be on the field that much now will he.
the dolphins can win this game, 7 points is huge.

bet on the miami dolphins

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

i can see why you'd be upset for having such a shitty team lj, but don't take it out on me.... its not my fault that your defence sucks.
i'm just the messenger.....i'm the guy that informs you what shape your team is in..... if you had listened to me, instead of getting all upset about it, you'd have changed teams a long time ago.

your acting as if i play some kind of part in how shitty your team preforms..... take a reality check there lj mmkay

in this thread here.
my record on calling cowboys games is actually pretty good.
2 years ago when they had a good team, i'd call more wins than losses for them and they'd get them....last year when they started to suck i started calling it against them and you started getting all pissed off, accusing me of calling games against your shitty team.
this season, your team is about as weak as its ever been, so yeah, if you really really want me to just avoid giving your teams losses than just say so, but don't start blaming me for your teams weakness.

Jimmy,

with all sincerity.....

my whole point in heckling you in this thread is that you have no clue about picking games. The entire concept that ANYONE has a clue is a big joke. The idea that you thinking that you're better at picking games than me or tony or anyone else is a big joke, and we are all laughing at you.

that's why people enjoy seeing you fail. because you put up this front like you have a clue....and crow like a motherfucker when you actually get one right...but NEVER cop to it when you blow it like you did last week.

you're a tool.....but your our tool...so keep it up!

lj, this thread is about making money.
its a about making profit through betting.
this thread has made profit for those who have used it for its purpose.
you obviously haven't read it since you didn't even know i wa an eagle fan.
as far as tools are concerned, the cellar would be considered my tool, not vice-versa

My pet theory is that the oddsmakers are taking your pet theory into account now.

I just looked at last year's standings against the spread. Teams with poor records do poorly against the spread and teams with good records do well against the spread. Eight teams had 5 wins or fewer, and none of them had a winning record against the spread. Eleven teams had 11 wins or more (including playoffs) and only 2 of them had losing records against the spread.

This seems to be counter-intuitive as under the W.HI.P theory, people should be betting with winning teams and betting against losing teams.

I looked at the year before and the same principle applied then too. I'm not sure why, but I am now issuing

Indianapolis -14 @ St. Louis
New England -15.5 @ Tampa Bay

Making money for whom?

Certainly not for the person who places bets based on your predictions!

you wanna try going back in this thread and see how much profit or loss you would have if you wagered on every recomendation in here.
if you're gonna make a statement like that, you'd best have your facts straight first.

(insert 'oooooooooooooooooooooohhhh scawy' here)

Whuddever Whup. I don't care that much. How about your facts? Can you give me a figure? I could make something up and are you going to go back 90 pages and fact-check me?

If you're gonna make a statement like that, you'd best have your facts straight before you challenge someone.

OK, my answer is minus one hundred bucks and 75 cents.
