    How difficult is it to learn the difference between "they're", "there", and "their"?  How can anyone take your "write-ups" seriously when you are barely literate?  

    My advice to you is to cancel all of your wagers and purchase hooked on phonics.

    I choose not to play this game but had a strong lean to NYG. Also, have OAK on a teaser +16.5. No opinion on other plays but good luck with your plays, hope NYG hits!

    Some crazy stats in favour of the Giants, makes my lean even stronger. On top of that, the Cowboys are on a 0-7 ATS run when favored at home after a win. Thanks for the information and good luck this week !

    I will most likely live bet the Giants-Cowboys game. Your 7 reasons make a lot of sense, but the Giants have many injuries and the Cowboys offensive and defensive lines are really good. But best of luck. And I wonder if you could give me some reasoning behind you picking Minnesota to cover.

    Buffalo lost a game where they played well last week. And they are due for a home win since they changed ownership. And they have the best rushing D in the league, which will serve them well against a rush dependant Vikings team. I see a 27-10 kind of game in favor of Buffalo.

    Come on LC,

    This isn't exactly diversifying your risk:

    Giants +7 -125 (7x)
    Giants +250 (1x)
    Cowboys Under 27 (1x)

    4 Team Teaser
    Alabama PK , Giants +20, Rams +20.5, Steelers +10 (2x)

    You're risking 13 units on just the Giants with a Cowboys total that is dependent on how the Giants defense plays.

    If the Giants lose by more than 7, that's more than 10 units down the hole. Then they are tied into a total a sweetheart teaser which needs 4 legs to hit.

    That's the definition of taking a huge risk on one play.

    My god...



    I agree. This is the epitome of VERY POOR money management. Effectively one quarter of your bankroll on a single weekend. No, zero, zilch serious capper would spend 1/4 of his bankroll on a single NFL weekend unless he was reckless, chasing or trying to bail himself out -  A puck U or badlands type technique they use as if they were playing monopoly.
    And to write in his first post in this topic that people stick with him as he will turn it around is another indicator he lacks sufficient caution and really doesn't mind if others go down with him. Such machoism is so prevalent here and is better scoffed at.

    It's actually 24.7 units with the juice.

    Wow...almost 25 units. In a single NFL weekend...

    My god...

    Not really sure. As LC pointed out, the Cowboys have been atrocious at covering spreads this big. It is an alarming spread and it's combined with the Giants embarrassment off of the Philly shutout.

    I can't see a blowout so the only way believe the Cowboys cover is a 10 to 13 point win with a score, likely late (an Eli pick as he reverts back to his old ways will do the trick).

    Lines that don't make a ton of sense to me obviously have me wary. I'm not big on this game at all but a Cowboys win by 14+ would surprise me a lot. The Giants being competitive to the end would not. I'm very surprised Vegas would put out a line this big on the Giants who are a very public team and were the league's comeback darlings just two weeks ago as they ran up scores. Makes me very suspicious as to where the books are on this game. They very well might be on the Cowboys as line has now dipped to 6.5. I'm on several others. Not a lot of interest in this one for me. Line for the Giants looks too good (and it looked too good against Philly too with a beat up O-Line that allegedly couldn't protect it's QB and they blew the Giants out).

    I don't see anything wrong with it.  He has a large following with a lot of success.. Then makes a larger than normal type wager that everyone in his thread will follow... What could go wrong?


     


    Come on LC,

    This isn't exactly diversifying your risk:

    Giants +7 -125 (7x)
    Giants +250 (1x)
    Cowboys Under 27 (1x)

    4 Team Teaser
    Alabama PK , Giants +20, Rams +20.5, Steelers +10 (2x)

    You're risking 13 units on just the Giants with a Cowboys total that is dependent on how the Giants defense plays.

    If the Giants lose by more than 7, that's more than 10 units down the hole. Then they are tied into a total a sweetheart teaser which needs 4 legs to hit.

    That's the definition of taking a huge risk on one play.

    Don't mind the big bet at all, only the team it is being bet on. But each gambler has his own instincts.

    You have got to be kidding, right?  You told everyone to risk half of their bankroll on 1 game last year and it was the 1st game of the NBA season.

    Amazing that dudes like Scalabrine have the gumption to hop on threads and criticize money management of others.  Didn't you have the Jets as your POY or whatever a couple of weeks ago?  Solid wager there expert guy.  Regardless of the pick 6 it was lucky to even have been close to covered in the first place.  
    It seems as though anyone who uses proper grammar is given instant credibility on this site.  Further, anyone who actually takes the time to draft a write-up is given far too many kudos.  
    Gamblers -  do your own research, find angles that work for you and don't follow people you've never met because they have a grasp on the English language.  
    Scalabrine - since you've somehow gathered a following on this site, do your followers a favor and stop posing as an expert.  If you had any clue, you wouldn't be spending your time on covers. Good luck people.

    Two winners.

    Everybody keeps saying "well Seattle won last year without Harvin they can do it again this year." That comment is absurd. They have literally no WRs now. Maybe people are forgetting that they had a guy named Golden Tate last year? The Seahawks are not the same team & the Rams getting 7....lot of value there.

    Uh no. I haven't posted a play of the year....in years...find a thread with a POY.

    So you're inaccurate on the first shot.

    And second, I'm 'lucky' when my team has the ball down 7 within a 10 point spread, having worked their way back inside the number the entire second half, and Denver covers with 15 seconds left when the Jets give the ball to them. Yes, Jets backers are the "lucky" ones there. What would Denver backers be there? The 'smart' ones???

    So you're inaccurate on the second shot.

    And to your third, "Stop spending your time on covers" shot.

    I'm actually doing the most respectable thing of all, that is, giving my picks away for FREE with detailed explanation.

    Are you trying to imply that touts and 'covers experts' are the REAL serious cappers?

    Is Steve Stevens on MSNBC the REAL sharp???

    Please kid, you've just said three things that are so beyond ignorant I'm not sure I should waste any more of my time explaining how things work in this capping world.

     

    Now run along.

    I've tried to explain to LC there are too many bets here and too much exposure. That is all.

    He can continue to bet in this manner if he wants and of course he WILL have very good weeks forthcoming. He's a good capper. That doesn't disprove my comments in his thread in any way! It's too many games and too many units. I've said this to a million posters where I see it.
