    My off season Seahawks +550 bet to win the super bowl is still active.
    I could maybe hedge the Patriots to win money to cover both sides.

    What sharp let alone any one who has a clue on handicapping will make a pick on day 1 .With 2 weeks to go and not knowing who is healthy ,not knowing if Sherman is going to be 100% .   You don't know a sharp bet if it stabbed you in the groin .   The man crush you have a Brady is starting to show  .calm down theres 2 weeks

    By the way of course you should hedge Anytime you can eliminate a loss and only have to worry how much your going to win is a home run . Posts like Shangos show why people lose more than they should  .I did it yesterday hedging my GB future that they will win the NFC . I did it with teasers and parlays buying the point at 6 ,when it was 7  with Ohio State last Monday .(All posted by the way _) And was told Im a pssy that I have no conviction  all that baby crap .They were right about one thing  I have no conviction for a certain team .,As a Jet fan  my friends were all over me saying how are you betting so much money on the hated Pats .My answer is my loyalities are to wining money not on a team I like or hate .  

       Worry about your pocket my friend ,Nothing better than watching a game you have money on that you know you cant lose any of it.

    No one is unbeatable and that goes for Seattle too .They should have lost yesterday . They played a dog crap game at home and were handed the win .

    Because sharps bet on line value, a concept you seem to be having trouble with. If sharps like NE + the points with a healthy Sherman in you damn well better believe they will hammer pats + points with a chance of having him out. What injury concerns are there for the pats that you wouldn't hit pats now instead of waiting two weeks? You make no sense.

     

    And then you proceed to tell people that they don't know about sharps while posting you bought a full point off a number that has been statistically proven to have a negative EV long term with. I'll clue you in...the only number that has a positive EV buying off of long term is 3.

    And you show your lack of respect for other gamblers by implying they are betting pats because they have a man crush on Brady when in reality it is NE's defense that is going to be the problem for the hawks, not Brady.

    Exactly. They don't even get involved in the emotion of the game. They blindly bet on value each and every time, simple as that.

    But you're wasting your time trying to explain this to such imbeciles like "lucas57". Let them continue believing that squares move lines with their $5 Subway money.

    The fact that the common square doesn't understand that openers are the bread and butter for sharps is flat out scary. This is why they're completely broke because they continue betting into lines that no longer hold any value.

If sharps like NE + the points with a healthy Sherman in you damn well better believe they will hammer pats + points with a chance of having him out. What injury concerns are there for the pats that you wouldn't hit pats now instead of waiting two weeks? You make no sense.

    And then you proceed to tell people that they don't know about sharps while posting you bought a full point off a number that has been statistically proven to have a negative EV long term with. I'll clue you in...the only number that has a positive EV buying off of long term is 3.

    And you show your lack of respect for other gamblers by implying they are betting pats because they have a man crush on Brady when in reality it is NE's defense that is going to be the problem for the hawks, not Brady.


    Exactly. They don't even get involved in the emotion of the game. They blindly bet on value each and every time, simple as that.

    But you're wasting your time trying to explain this to such imbeciles like "lucas57". Let them continue believing that squares move lines with their $5 Subway money.

    The fact that the common square doesn't understand that openers are the bread and butter for sharps is flat out scary. This is why they're completely broke because they continue betting into lines that no longer hold any value.

    Name the best defense the patriots faced this year.

    Name the good games the Patriots played this year that weren't at home.

    I'll wait.

    The Patriots do nothing but run 3-4-5 yard outs to Edleman and Gronk on the seem route. I just don't know for the life of me how teams don't stop them. Not surprising the teams that do the best vs NE are in the division and know what they run. Give Carroll 2 weeks to prepare with the best secondary of the last 10 years and we will see what happens.

    Point to ponder: Sherman and Thomas don't have to
    be out to affect their teams performance.In fact, since
    they have shoulder and elbow injuries, it would be
    better for Patriots backers if they did play but missed
    a few tackles here and there because they couldn't
    arm tackle wide receivers.

    just because big money was thrown doesn't mean it was 'sharp' money--could have been a rich degen.

    I think the Books truly believe that the right number in
    this matchup was Seattle - 3. When they opened it at
    Seattle - 2 1/2 and everyone pounded the other side ,it
    is causing everyone to stop and think this one through.
    I would expect this number to go up once Seattle
    backers on this forum get their allowance from their moms.

    Other than Seattle is there really any good defense in the NFL ?

    Buffalo and Detroit might be the best defenses the Pats played this year .

    In my opinion any game a team wins on the road is a good game.

    Beating Indy on the road was probably their best away game .

    @logcottage: Stop deteriorating the thread because you're a clown. I'm sure you are a SAF and never had a typo with your 3-4 covers names. Here Mrs. Johnson, I'll use it in a sentence. The defensive player seemed confused by the seam route. Is that sentence correct? Or are you going to get your red pen out and correct it, and then call my mommy. Adding nothing to the site except being a grammar Nazi. Solid

    You learned how to spell "seam" tonight. That's a very productive evening for you. That's what I added. That's more important than your uneducated guess on the Super Bowl winner. That's all YOU add to the site-uneducated guesses.

    Some people would disagree with that.

    Very easy for me to be the bigger man in these situations. I have no interest in a back and forth on a gambling forum. Waste of my time. Goodluck with your life sir, you seem like an angry, bitterman. I'm sure you are a wonderful guy tho (though) with a great life and even better personality.
