Easy free winner last night with the Lakers taking out the poor Pistons in Detroit. I will have another in a moment. Sometimes I post moments that I personally recall and today is another one of those. Sort of, it was on this date back in 1961 that George Blanda booted a 55 yard field goal for the Houston Oilers. NO! I don't remember that particular game, I was only 3 and hadn't started betting for another couple of years at least. BUT, it did jog my memory to another famous kick I do remember live. It was in 1970 and I was watching the Cardinals game and they cut into the action because Tom Dempsey the kicker for the Saints had just booted a sick 63 yard field goal as time expired to beat the Lions. That was a helluva bomb back then and to top it off Dempsey only had half a foot. No limit used to load up you tube videos of these things for me. If you have not seen this kick go check it out. Believe me, at the time it was an epic kick and his record stood a long, long time. I could be wrong on this because I have not checked to verify but I think it stood until Jason Elam beat in in a kick out in Denver a few years back. No offense to Elam but kicking in Denver is not quite the same. Either way, both are helluva impressive kicks. It was a fun memory, I can still see my dad looking up at the TV watching Dempseys kick go through the cross bar and growling DAMN through his cigar.
Okay, let's see if we can cash another free winner. Tonight I am suggesting a small wager on the Celtics at home laying five to, you guessed it, the pitiful Pistons. Detroit has dropped nine straight and is in apparent free fall. Brad Stevens Celtics for once get to flex their muscles at home. Take Boston to have some fun for a change.
On the business side as of now I have two featured released loaded up. In college hoops I have been very selective with the featured releases. The fact is I have only had two this season to date.Yes, both won. The last one coming on Nov 25th with Kansas State covering against Arizona and narrowly missing the outright. I like tonights game enough I am putting it our there as a Double Star featured release. I also have a college football Triple already loaded for saturday. I lost my triples last weekend in both college and NFL. That is a fact, hell, I could lose both again this weekend. It happens. I try to speak candidly and it freaks some out. It happens as you get older and get weary of peoples games they play. BUT, the fact is I am up 270 units all time with these Triple Stars. My longer term clients know they are a sound investment long term. Those are very solid results. We've cashed on 102 more than not. Frankly I cannot wait for the NFL playoffs because we've hit on a sick 16 of the last 18 NFL Playoff Triples. Some folks realize the value of long term, some couldn't care less. Oh well, nothing I can do about that. If you want to buy a lock then there are countless sites more than willing to take your dough. As for the actual results, well partner, you're on your own there. Good luck.
Okay, that's it for today. There is a lot of action out there tonight. Good luck guys. Try and use self discipline and money management. It will keep you in play for the long run. Take care.
