The grind continues...
On a sidenote -- to the young guys who are married or have a girlfriend, sometimes you need to put your foot down even if it will absolutely piss your wife off. Case in point for me last night: there was significant rain the last 4 days in central California where I reside, and I came back from a San Francisco vacation to find a portion of my backyard had flooded into my outdoor patio room. The wife asks me to pick up some sandbags on the way home from work, so I do. The sandbags were being filled by volunteers at a local park and they filled trashbags with the sand. Some trashbags were more sturdy than others, and when I was attempting to move them through the house, a few broke and spilled sand in the garage and in a portion of the entryway to the house from the garage. My wife works out daily in the garage and so when we she got done last night, she wanted me to come out and help with cleaning the sand up. What that really meant was she wanted me to just OK her idea to clean the sand rather. Rather than fight with her about it, I just said fine, do it your way even though I foresee disaster with her method. Mine was to sweep all the sand (which was in nice piles because I stopped when I realized that the sand was leaking and put the bags down.) Her genius method to clean the sand was to USE A FREAKING LEAFBLOWER to try to blow the sand out of the garage. I knew this was going to make the problem worse, but I didn't say anything. Well fucking sure enough, now there is sand EVERYWHERE and guess who has to clean the entire garage this weekend? That's right, yours truly. Moral of the story: do not avoid the confrontation when doing so will just result in more work for yourself.
Plays:
1. Dallas Mavericks ML (+145), 1 to win 1.45 -- people are really overthinking this line if you ask me. Basically just look at my DAL write-up from yesterday to see what I think about DAL on the road against quality competition/playoff caliber squads. I expect this will be a super-public play and I am hesitant to go any higher than risking one unit because of how far off I think this line is. Honestly I think I would have set it at DAL -3.5 or 4. ORL is coming off a back to back as well, so its not like its just DAL that may have tired legs. I hope people are starting to realize that DAL are freaking road warriors. They have lost once in the last MONTH, and that includes some serious competition they are beating: MIA, PHX, POR, UTAH, HOU, SAS, OKC, and ATL. Trends are significantly favoring DAL in this spot and to be able to get +145 on a DAL win where I believe I should legitimately be laying -150 or so for that price is something I can't pass up, "sucker/trap" line or not.
Checking out the rest of the card but wanted to lock that one in...
