November, 2010

Tuesday Recap : November came to a close with a win. Rajon Rondo (the title is a music joke) carved the Cavaliers to pieces in Cleveland's LeBron look-ahead game, and brought us a nice cover and 2-unit victory. Let's just keep rumbling along into...

Monday Recap : No plays in the NBA on Monday, but we did drop our Monday Night Football Big play to turn what was a very nice NFL weekend into a small losing one. Farts to that. Today : Audio Feature : The last couple weeks we featured the likes...

Weekend Recap : The week of death finally got an adrenaline shot to the heart! Thank goodness, because I'm not sure my already-scuffling male pattern baldness could have taken 2 more days of that garbage. Saturday, we cashed the 3* GOM on the Minnesota...

Wednesday Recap : Just fade me. Sports Wagering: NBA Washington Wizards @ Atlanta Hawks (-8) with a total of 196; What the heck is wrong with the Hawks? I mean, we knew they beat up on lower-tier teams to get out to their quick start, but getting...

Tuesday Recap : I can't pick my nose the last 4 days. Seriously, I tried, and I jabbed myself in the cheek. After 3 straight months of winning, we're now in the midst of a rather ugly week. Trust me when I say that I'm using every ounce of...

Prelude: Due to a nasty flu, we didn't end up having an NFL blog last week. It felt weird, and didn't help with our handicapping. I award myself two thumbs down for not getting it done. Anyway, back to the quick PERCEPTION LINE ERROR notes...

Monday Recap : Just the wrong call with Golden State. I felt strongly they'd bounce back from that ugly game in LA by running a bit, but that team was just completely out of gas. Wrong side, wrong result. Today : Audio Feature: The last couple...

Weekend Recap : A full, complete, unmitigated disaster everywhere you look. When it rains, it pours, and we managed to find ways to pick losers in some of the most insane ways possible. The Hoosiers were covering by 10 points with 1 quarter to play...

Thursday Recap : We had just one play yesterday, and it was a small one by design. A very tough Thursday card resulted in an 0-1 mark for us, and we dropped 1 unit. The Suns were just completely overmatched, and while the loss looked ugly, it counts just...

Wednesday Recap : Back on the horse, and no time to waste! After dropping a play on Tuesday, we got ourselves a sultry 3* GOW Winner yesterday with the Toronto Raptors to get things going back in the right direction. We did drop a small Free Play on the...

Tuesday Recap : Well, it was fun while it lasted, and I want to thank all the bloggers and clients that rooted for every play! 14 NBA winners in a row heading into yesterday...now, 1 loser in a row. The Sixers played hard for the first 24 minutes, but...

Monday Recap : Not a bad Monday, if I do say so! The bad news - we were absolutely, positively murdered with our NFL 1* on the Washington Redskins. The good news - we made that back and then some with the Oklahoma City Thunder 2* cashing (thanks to deity...

Prelude: Same prelude as last week, just a scheduling note: with NBA Blogs coming out nightly, I'll likely go back to adding all the games with early lines on Sunday or Monday, and all the games with lines that come out later in the week on Wednesday...

Weekend Recap : That's right, ladies and germs, the blog is back for another 5-day NBA breakdown. In terms of the weekend gone by, let's just break down the news, from least to most awesome. Least awesome -- still treading water in the NFL...

Recap: This has been a pretty amazing week. With our 2* Winner on the Bulls yesterday (who covered by a scant 23.5 points), we'd have 5 straight games decided by double digits ATS - it's pretty rare to rattle off a week of blowouts, so let's...

Recap: I'd say we've moved from *warm* to *pretty damn hot* with yesterday's results. The Bucks crushed the Hawks for a FREE winner, the Mavs blasted the Grizzlies for a 1* Paid winner, and the Nets played tremendous 2nd half defense in their...

Recap: NBA is starting to hit a stride...one of, hopefully, MANY that we'll have over the course of the year! We've hit the biggest play on every card since Thursday (2* on Thursday, 2* on Friday, only play on Sat, 2* Monday, and 3* on Tuesday...

Recap: A super way to begin the mid-week! After a small NFL setback on Sunday, we came roaring back on Monday with a pair of NBA winners, cashing with the Warriors +1 as the Free Play, and with the Suns/Grizzlies Under as the 2* Best Bet! Fear the Bebe...

Prelude: Nothing new, really. Back to the grind! With NBA Blogs coming out nightly, I'll likely go back to adding all the games with early lines on Sunday or Monday, and all the games with lines that come out later in the week on Wednesday or Thursday...

Weekend Recap: Pretty obvious where to begin on this! We had our first EVER Game of the Year, and it won! Arizona State aged us all a little, but some tremendous second half offense got us the cover, and darn near got them the win. 1-0 on Games of...

Recap: A lovely little bounceback Thursday was just what the doctor ordered. After getting it handed to us on Wednesday, we came right back with winners on both road underdogs, and though we grabbed the points, both dogs won their games straight up. 2...

Recap: I don't want to talk about it. If you want to revisit the debacle that was Wednesday, I suggest putting laxatives in an NBA team's pre-game snack, then snapping photos of the restroom. Today: Yesterday made Dan angry, and made him...

Recap: Well, starting to get things revved up a little, but still a ways to go. Nailed the 2* Top Play on the Portland/Milwaukee UNDER, as that bad boy covered with 22 points to spare, but then dropped Freebies on the Pistons and Grizzlies. You simply...

Recap: Bad start to the week. Luol Deng hung a career high on our Blazers, and then Sacramento fell way behind early, came all the way back to lead by 8, only to lose by a point because a last second Omri Casspi dunk occurred just after the buzzer. Some...

Prelude: In last week's blog, we talked about how we will continue to go "bigger" on games that have more line value, and we'll continue to play any game with enough value to make a play, and that even though week 7 was a 1-3 turd, the...
