That Pacers-Wizards going over 193 with that meaningless 3 with 2 seconds left by the Wiz that raised the total to 194. The total was at 162 at the end of regulation. The total was at 164 with a minute left in the first overtime!!! They scored 8 points combined in the 1st OT. The total was at 170, still in great shape. How the heck it got over 193 was divine intervention I'm certain and I didn't even have a $ on the game. Just totally feel for the losers that had the under in this game, they deserved a better fate, in fact I'm sure they'll be some that check their account tomorrow and think there's a mistake if you gave up on the game figuring there's no way it was going over 193 and went to bed happy. For the winners, this was your night! Better to be lucky....

Good luck to your sir. I agree on Croatia, but not as certain on the Mexico to win. El Tri were the favorites in qualifying and yet they put forth an average performance that resulted them needing a playoff victory over New Zealand just to qualify. Yes I am aware they've turned it around somewhat, but I could see another letdown for the heavy favorites in the face of pressure. Whereas Cameroon, though less talented, can play loose, knowing they're just happy to be there. That's my take anyway. I'm certainly no expert, or even close to an expert.

Please excuse my ignorance, but for the life of me I';ve never been able to comprehend what I need to have happen to win in the following wagers:
International Soccer 2 Brazil (World Cup)* -1,-1½ -123 vs Croatia (World Cup) Risking $123.00 To Win $100.00 or this one: 1 Croatia (World Cup)* +1½,+2 -162 vs Brazil (World Cup) Risking $162.00 To Win $100.00 |

yeah I thought he was gonna help cost me a win tonight with the blazers -2.5. Thought Lillard would have had a much better game tonight. 12 points and only 4 assists is weak, especially when you consider the four turnovers he committed. But a win is a win. And fortunately the Knicks couldn't find the hole on that last possession of theirs. The Knicks are my favorite team, but yet again the Knicks are a tough team to root for. I miss David Lee. And Patrick Ewing, Charles Oakley, John Starks, Larry Johnson, Latrell Spreewell and Allen Houston. Since the days of those players, the Knicks have been an AWFUL franchise that still has Isiah Thomas's stink on it.

With players, coaches and fans running onto the court while the game was still live, how a technical foul was not accessed I will never know. It was blatant. 3 players just ran off the bench and mobbed the shooter right on the floor, nowhere near the bench. I'm pretty sure that is not legal. Not to mention the entire crowd ran onto the floor and the game had to be stopped, which is also UNFAIR (in a way) for Arizona since they were not allowed to immediately in bound the ball and catch Cal celebrating instead of playing d and perhaps they get off an attempt at the tying or winning basket. Instead they were denied an attempt when the in bounds pass was easily deflected to end the game. Rant over.

I was on the winning end and I just told my friend that it was a miracle win. The guy on the foul line was an 85% foul shooter, of course he misses and had to miss the 2nd on purpose. Then Christmas nails both. Honestly, i was hoping for overtime. Felt that gave me a better chance than what actually happened. Unreal. I feel for ya.

I saw it as low as -14 on 5dimes 24 hours ago. My initial lean was towards Denver but I couldnt pull the trigger. I couldnt believe the line movement that happened yesterday. I took Oakland +17. Now I'm regretting not taking Denver -14 as well. Could have doubled up, and I bet the sharps did REALLY WELL on a game with line movement like this game (as low as 14, as high as 17) So I'm not sure how well the books did. Depends on the lines each book was given really. Fascinated to find out.

I almost felt, the K State QB had Texas -the 6 or 7 points the way he handled that last minute. Unreal. Garbage!

I know 30 seconds left u figure memphis doesn't even shoot or just runs the full 24 and take a 2 pt shot, but after allen hit the 3, i KNEW odom was stroking his meaningless 3. Typical.

the start is key, if oregon can stretch the lead to 18-20 points, it may quickly demoralize the utes. If Utah comes out strong then the ducks may be in for a bit of a fight.

It takes guts to put yourself on the line like Knicksfan did today with his support of KU. Had I had a bankroll, Id probably have been on them too. I took KU in the contests section for 500 units. Im just as shocked by this result as I am the TCU loss and that's saying something. I thought KU was vastly superior to OU and would be "Up" for this game after 2 straight defeats.Alas, Knicksfan and I were wrong. But back to my original point, before you go throwing stones, let's see you posting your wagers prior to tipoff. Let's see how well you do. I myself am 119-117-7 on the year in the contest. Before you run somebody into the ground for being confident, let's see what you have done to deserve to do so. That's all. I hope that made sense. I'm not sober.

Wait, how is it as bad as boxing. I think the replacement refs are in way over their heads and are easily influenced by the home crowd. Had this game been in Green Bay, I believe the refs would have gotten it right and the Packers would have won, but because the refs probably feared for their lives as they contemplated overturning the call. Whereas for a seasoned veteran official, he would have not been affected by the home crowd and what might happen if he overturned it. But I don't get your boxing analogy. I don't see the corruption. I mean are you implying the officials had money on the seahawks? If that were the case why wait until the final play to make such an impacting call?

Why not let them score? I was questioning why Boise was even still running the ball? I thought maybe that's why the qb called time out, to ask his coach if they should be kneeling it. But if you're BYU why not take a chance and just let them score. The odds are better than playing for the fumble in my opinion. And I don't question going for the 2 points, I question the play call.....why they going shotgun and basically signaling to the Broncos that their intentions to pass. Idiots.
