Week 9 Leans/Plays

Whodeysb09- I read your posts quite often and respect your opinions on games.  However, this Notre Dame crap has to stop.  I understand you support your team, but DAMN! Notre Dame is, has and always will be, the MOST OVERRATED team in the history of competitive sports. 

USC is #5 Pitt is #15
Navy is #33
UCONN is #41
Michigan, Boston College, Washington, Michigan State, and Stanford are all tied at #43

They lost to USC.  They have only played 2 road games all year (LOST to Michigan and only beat Purdont by 3!)  They barely squeaked by BC and Mich St and needed overtime to beat Washington!  This team is mediocre at best.  Until they start scheduling some competition on the road (or at home for that matter) and winning those games, they will remain a mediocre team that is trying to get by on reputation. 

No disrespect meant here, just had to vent.  Good luck on all your plays this week, I might even tail a couple. 

Yeah that sounds good.  I can't wait to see him back in action.  I don't know if it will be the same with TNA and all.  Oh well thanks for the updates.  Good Luck buddy

 Good stick with Sout Florida

Thanks for the advice.  Its all good man.  I know what your saying, I did think about it for about 5 minutes tonight, but realized it was stupid and anyhow I liked South Florida more than just a little bit. 
I'm in here all day your right..its ridiculous.  I have nothing better to do.  When my girlfriend gets off work thats a different story.  I was even thinking of finding a job or going back to school
I'm doing fine gambling wise so its not like the addiction is bad, plus honestly I could never see myself stealing from anyone to gamble ever.  Even if I was in the pitts, wouldn't do it.  I do not think my addiction is that bad. 
My main goal this year was money management and I think I'm doing a pretty damn good job at.  I like the way things are going at this point.  Increased my units, might have been a bad idea but I'm fine.  I don't like just playing on Saturday.  Most of the time I'm up going into the weekend anyhow.  I can't recall a week where I wasn't up going into the weekend.  So that hasn't hurt me one bit.  Saturday's earlier in the year were brutal.  But I just think that was because of some of my own issues I had.  The last year personally for me has probably been the worst one of my life.  Its been extremely brutal and I wouldn't wish a year like this on my worst enemy.  Maybe Pete Carroll though.  Just kidding seriously, I think that was the major problem early.  I have really turned it around, you said keep turning and I think I did.  NFL has been great to me I must say.  I probably won't go, probably bluffing just a bit.  Remember I was a polished poker player at one time too, I just find it so damn boring anymore, I can barely sit there for an hour anymore.  Again Thanks, glad that your concerned, your always a good guy.  Like talking to you.  You aren't on as much anymore but its all good.  The advice is great. 

Good Luck this weekend

I agree, Florida just wins, they dont cover.  I think texas D locks down the bryantless cowboys.  Texas big.

Oh your opinion means so much.  My Notre Dame stuff probably won't ever stop so get used to it.  I love them, they are the greatest team in the history of sports, along with the Cincinnati Bengals.. Damn the 90's and most of the 2000's sucked.  Anyway.  Purdue is underrated in my opinion, plus Clausen didn't barely play in that game.  Purdue beat Ohio State.  Washington game went to overtime your correct, but they had plenty of chances to put them away and did not.  They have yet to figure out how to do that.  I think they will learn.  They are growing as a football team.  Most all of the big time programs only play 4 road games a year, and thats exactly what we play.  So you have no case there.  In my opinion Michigan on the road, Pitt on the road, Purdue on the road, and Stanford on the road is not a cakewalk.  Boston College had beaten us 6 straight times and we beat them, that is a big hurdle.  Boston College always and I mean always has played them tough.  Michigan State had beaten us I forget how many times at Notre Dame stadium but again we got over another hurdle.  On to USC...we were extremely close.  Thats all I have to say about that..

I personally think they have scheduled plenty of competition year in and out.  I think they have had a decent schedule this year.  I think it gets easier, with Wazzou, Navy, and UCONN left.  But the two road games left I think are very tough games.  Next year is a different story on scheduling.  I love my team, if you don't like it don't bother reading it.  I respect your opinion and probably realize why your frustrated because I talk about them a lot but thats just the way I am.  Good luck on the plays you tail if you do.

estes1717 - I literally thought about it for 5 minutes of course like a dumbass I posted that I was going to change the play.  The next post you see though I say I'm sticking with my guns on this one or whatever.  Glad I stuck too.  Tha Ville tomorrow

Orangemen44 - I would love nothing more than to see Texas fall in this game but I just don't see it personally.  I think Oklahoma State is outmatched.  If there defense comes to play we might have a decent ball game, but I don't think so.  I'd love to see TCU in the national title game.  I think they are a top 3 team for sure.

who i need your insight bud---dont go anywhere. nah man whatever ya gotta do. I see you winning more than lossing.

Any thoughts on texas tech? I really flip flopped on this one and i kinda wanna pull the trigger on Tech especially after the Mike LLynch Fat little girlfriend speech. I think he has his team ready and fired up. Whatcya think? Btw line dropped to tech-6.5

??

I'm not going anywhere...for now.   That speech was incredible I died laughing.  I like that guy hes funny as shit.  Anyway personally I think that Tech wins this game by about 14, but what team shows up.  I mean Kansas lost to Colorado.  Granted it was on the road, but to me that is pathetic.  Moving on.  Tech did not look good at all last week.  Pissed I feel for them.  I don't really have a good read on either team, my gut says Tech.  Who is starting at QB for Tech?  I know it doesn't seem to matter, but some are better than others.  Losing isn't the reason I'd be leaving anyway.  Its just that I think I'm wasting my life...personally.  Need to get out enjoy more things, and get a real profession.  Thats just what my thinking is.  Oh well man.  I don't really have a good read on this game.  So I really can't help you out.  I'd lean Tech but be a little weary.

 gonna fire 1 unit maybe 2  i agree think tech wins by 2 td atleast - think line came down cause people are usually short lookers and a lot of people see how bad tech played last week and jump on KU. Imo tech will be ready and roll. I actually think there is great value with tech laying less than the key numbe of 7. thx

 

10-14 is what I think Tech wins by at the maximum personally.  I don't think they really put it on Kansas but you never know.  Good luck buddy.

GL Tomorrow buddy

One more play for you degenerates....

Notre Dame -15.5 1H (5)

When I break this game down I really think Notre Dame jumps out big and has a very comfortable lead. 
I'd play to 16.5, think they are up 3 touchdowns +.  If not we suck

Whodeys- fuckin' quote function ain't workin'. I was trying to paste your picks here with it, but fuck it.

Concerning the ISU pick, I'm looking at it this way:  ISU hasn't beaten NU in like 500 years.  They just hit the fuckin' jackpot, with a ton of luck.  They're wwwwwwwway due for a letdown here.  A&M coming off the Tech win- I think they built some confidence and they come back home.  Conference roadies are just ugly for sub-par teams, which ISU is.  I haven't made A&M a play...but i'm leanin'.  Leanin' hard.

bucks -24.5 1st half

I don't know, the one thing you can't take away from a team is confidence.  I think Iowa State has tons of it.  They are flying high, I agree they got lucky last week but they still won.  I think Iowa State is in a good spot to play well here.  A&M is so unpredictable, personally I think they still suck.  I think Iowa State plays enough defense to keep them in it.  Oh Well man good luck in whatever you decide.  Nice to see you around haven't heard from you in awhile.  Kansas State made me some money and then burned it right back the next week.

Kinda like that one as well.  I'd love to have it around 23.5.

A&M sucks, no doubt.  I did take them last week vs. Tech, though.  I've been profiting on the vicious conference circle, i.e. a team that sucks ass beyond belief one week, shall cover the following week.

Quit burnin' that KSU money- haha.  I never suggest anyone follow me.  But I'm undefeated going for and against the Cats this season (Ulala, UCLA, ISU, TTech). 

Keepin' my powder dry this weekend...I hoped for OU -21 so I could unload on OU.  Didn't get it.  Lookin' for a second half opportunity either way.

Keep an eye on next week's line for KSU/KU.  I expect my Cats will be a home dawg.  Hoping for -3.5 and I'll get on it.  Bad team, but new mojo with Coach Snyder, and this is one he wants BADLY.  The team has bought in whole hog, baby. Two game lead in the North with the scraps he's thrown together- are you kiddin' me?!?!??! I'm happy as hell.

Congratulations on Kansas St pal.  I think your right next week they could possibly be home dogs.  But again I think that is based on Kansas performance.  Too bad you don't have Darren Sproles again maybe could give Texas a run for the money in the Big 12 championship if you make it.  But any team that comes to play them is in a lot of trouble in my opinion.  I took Tech last week, fell for them.  Thought they could beat up on A&M.  Good luck pal

Ace77 -

Good luck with the Cowboys bud

If you decide to take them that is.
