Superbowl thoughts

I am so sorry I doubted your superior analytical skills and all the hours of research you have spent on this and the countless other threads you have going in here.  If you are dumping 17 units on this game then you must know the Steelers are gonna blow out the Cardinals.  My numbers indicate Arizona winning by a field goal.  I will bet one unit on that.

Look, I'm not saying Arizona can't win or cover, it's football, anything can happen. They are a nice story, but they aren't getting my money.

3rd_and_Long:  Greatly respect your insights (MLB too) and enjoyed rooting the Phils wit'cha this year.  And I really don't even have a reason for posting other than you start at the top by saying that you're leaning Pittsburgh and have a long time to decide...than you post the "above" quote...sounds to me that you've in fact made up your mind...that is ~ unless you're NOT going to play the game at all?  But let's be honest...I doubt that.

I am NOT sure on a "side" as yet...regardless, I wish you  and might even end up on your side.  I do have several "live" teasers with Cards +19.5 & +20 (13pts) but not sure what to do with the "posted" line...funny thing is...the line doesn't even really come into play in the Super Bowl (historically speaking)...you basically just have to come up with the "Winner".

Best wishes & always enjoyed reading your threads!  Look forward to rootin' for the Phitans in 2009!

Good Luck &  !

I got my sources why the Steelers are going to win and cover. It has nothing to do with Covers.com or the ppl on this site. Capping rule 101, don't be a smuck & don't be too damn arrogant over a pick. From reading most of your posts, you are too much of a homer to see the other angle. Don't take it personal, everybody trying to make money bro. BOL to you and all the backers.

from 3rd and short:

I'm pretty good with college hoops, I just don't start until football is over.

I'm not sure what your fucking malfunction is. Jealous much?

I've now heard it all...sources!!

This tells me you know nothing about the guy and how he bets, you are basing your assumption of his gambling habits on this thread, and that is sad.

This man is the epitome of Money Management. 

I think you just broke your Capping rule 101...

Because we all know that nothing is guaranteed on picking a side because anything can happen.  Only thing we as bettors can do is try and be on the side that has a better chance at covering...

Oh and sources?  Classic...

my 2 cents...I feel a blow out.  The only thing that concerns me as a Pitt backer is Ben.  I don't trust this guy.  It kills me how none of the experts point out his most important flaw that he can't throw to a wr off a break.  that is why the guy is running around on every play looking like he can't find an open receiver.  the guy has to be wide open for him to throw it.  i'm just worried that this knucklehead will turn the ball over.  Yes, i know, i'm letting my dislike for the guy cause error in my judgement.

I know, pitt is the play but i just have reservations about the QB. 

Best of luck to you and your dad.

I've had issues with him and the o-line all season. Ben, his o-line, and the Steelers run game have gotten it together over the last several weeks, I feel comfortable making this play.  

And thanks about my dad.

My source said that the Cards win by 10 pts. Cards up by 3 late in the game and BIg Ben is intercepted by Rolle and return for a TD that seal the first Superbowl win for the Cards.
