As for tonight...I am sticking to my Thursday Night gameplan. Blind bet the home team and over. Tough to do. As I mentioned last week, if that game was on Sunday I would have had the Giants but I stuck the program and played the Skins. Pushed as the over hit easily. There have been other weeks where I liked the road team but made myself play the home team and it worked out.

This season playing the favorite and over (using closing lines from Scoresandodds):

Week 1- Seahawks -4.5 47. Seattle Wins 36-16. 2-0
Week 2- Ravens -2.5 44 Balt wins 26-6. 1-1 YTD- 3-1
Week 3- Falcons -7 47 ATL wins 56-14 2-0 YTD 5-1
Week 4- Redskins -3 44.5 NYG wins 45-14 1-1 YTD 6-2 (75%)

Last year- Counting Thanksgiving. 18-13-3 (58%). Could have been better if you beat the closing line.

So 24-15-3 (61.5%) this year and last. Those are retirement percentages there.

Western Union or Moneygram them cash. Inconvenient but in a pinch. I've done it with no issues. You'll get a weird look from the clerk when you tell them you are sending a couple grand in USD to Hector Sanchez in the Phillipines or Octavio Ramirez in Chile but for the love of the game...you gotta do it.

Lol I deposited more money to put it on the Packers once I saw Bridgewater was out... decided not to and just bet the 100 I did have in there.

Hope you found somewhere to deposit money durkie.

Yeah I wanted to Parlay the Packers -9 and the over but just couldn't risk it. 48 was a lot when I knew with Bridgewater out the Viks weren't going to get many points.

I started drinking the second I left work and was going hard for a while. Clearly, I was fired up. I don't typically like to temp the gambling gods to strike me down with 'printing money' blasts. I won a nice bet on the O's too. I will bet against the Tigers every game this postseason and bet against them in every series. Just out of pure spite.

I had a huge week in college. Something like 13-4 with Sparty as one of the losers. Win of the day was Cal ML to close out a parlay. Up 1 and Wash State missed a 19 yard field goal with 15 seconds left in one of the craziest games you'll ever see. 60-59 Cal.

NFL was up and down. 6-6 on straight plays on sides. 1-1 on totals. None of my parlay combos hit. Small losing week and first losing NFL week of the year for me.

Lost Tennesee- Had no business losing that bet.
Won St. Louis- Had no business winning that bet.

Nice winners in Pittsburgh, Houston, Buffalo, Indy and Denver
Ugly losers in the Bears, Jets, Chiefs, Falcons.

Had the Redskins +7.5 to switch it from a small losing week to a small winning week but not meant to be as Russ Wilson, Lynch and Hauschka threw a dagger in the hearts of Skins backers late last night.

I'm giving up hope of finding a way to deposit. I don't want to send money to Jose consuela in Guatemala and I can't find an international visa gift card at wal greens wal mart. Looks like I'll have to contact the vietnamese bookie my parents know.

Like I said before, the first time is awkward but after that it is no big deal. (Thats what she said) I trust offshores more than most neighborhood lowlifes taking action.

I'll start posting my bets so you guys can bet the opposite and make millions.

Bet missouri to cover and they got blown the fuck out. And if you watched the game, they had so many bs turnovers. Balls popping out of receivers hands and right into the defenders.

Then bet auburn to cover and they've had 2 offensive plays with 2 turnovers and are down 14-0.

Balls.

Lol S&L. I lost $50 on a on a 10 point teaser earlier. UL Monroe is up 14-3 had them as +31.5... they go on to score nothing more and Kentucky wins by 34. Also lost $10 on Northwestern +3.5. Thankfully I put $15 on Duke and Miss State straight up and $10 the over in the Texas/OU game.

I'm officially done with 10 point teasers. I think I've lost $150 on them in the last 5 weeks.

Damn that is brutal.

Kentucky looked dead in the waters against 31.5.
