Aston Villa v Manchester United Draw +266

Not feeling a long writeup so I'll keep it short.  Aston Villa have been very strong at home including a scoreless draw to Chelsea.  Man U away haven't been great but have yet to lose.  Bottom line is I don't see either team losing this game and see a great shot at a draw here.  Last 2 years this fixture at Aston Villa has ended in a draw so I'll take another shot at it.  Good luck folks.

Aston Villa v Manchester United Draw +266

Scoreless to the 70' then ended in a 2-2 draw.  Interesting but a winner nonetheless.  Be back later folks.

Trust me bake, when the game was at 2-0 I was quite unhappy and had essentially chalked it up as a loss.  I figured 0-0 was my best shot at halftime, but I'll obviously take the win.

I really think that Shaun Hill (go terps!) is underrated in the NFL.  He showed plenty of capability when he stepped in for Stafford earlier this year and I see no reason why this should be any different.  Thus, we are getting value here because the Lions are definitely the better team at plus money - can't pass that up.

Mike Wallace u3 Receptions +135

Gut feeling here but whenever a prop is juiced like this (-165/+135) on an o/u that is easily fixed by bumping up the total then it automatically gets my attention.  I think this line is set where it is, and will gain plays on the over, because of the big name - Wallace has been tearing it up this season with the long ball.  But, would you believe that last week was the only time all season he has had MORE than 3 receptions in a game?  (4 unders, 3 pushes, 1 over).  I will note that with Big Ben back he has seen average receptions go up a little but I just don't think that warrants a play on the over at all.  New England is also tops in the league with only one pass play given up over 40 yards which is obviously Mike Wallace's forte.  Bottom line is that BIll will have his boys well prepared for the deep threat here in my opinion (not to mention I think this has a Mendenhall type of game written all over it) and I don't see any way he gets to 4 receptions.  Good luck folks.

Mike Wallace u3 Receptions +135

Not usually one to use the moose but Hines Ward getting hurt early in this game completely screwed this play.  I would've bought out instantly if I could've once I saw that.  Oh well - be back for tomorrow for a big NBA play.

they called it a "neck" injury so they didnt HAVE to sit him due to a concussion, but Im not so sure...its usually more serious than they initially tell the media.

Yea I saw the press releases and official reports - to me it doesn't really matter what it was labeled as because as long as he was out of the game Wallace became a much higher priority of a target.  Not saying I would've won my bet if he hadn't been hurt, but with him hurt I had a 0% chance of winning that bet in my opinion.

Oklahoma City Thunder +200

Great spot here as two angles collide for me tonight to create a play.  The Thunder played SA last night and got dominated in the 2nd half at home.  Now today they are on the road, getting away from their disappointed home crowd, and facing the very hyped up Utah Jazz.  Utah are home from an amazing road trip where they won 4 straight games, all from behind in the 2nd half.  After a few days of the pats on the backs and media hype, I see tonight being a possible let down spot for them.  At +200 I just cannot pass up the value here of a team that has a lot of potential but has been under performing lately against a team that has been overachieving lately.  Perfect value spot here to I'll gladly jump at it.  Good luck folks.

Washington Wizards +13.5 -105

Too many points here is the bottom line.  Boston coming home from a solid road trip, winning 3 of 4, to face the lowly Wizards.  However, there seems to be life in this team as Gilbert Arenas is closer to his former self rather the maniac that has been in DC the past year or two.  Not much of a writeup here just really like this number - was honestly hoping for 11 so 13.5 is a gift and a must play.  Good luck folks.

Washington Wizards +13.5 -105

Embarrassing performance from my home town boys (not a homer bet - I really liked the spot they were in). Be back tomorrow for any games I like.  Hope no one tailed.

Birmingham City v Chelsea Draw +277

Lost my long writeup so going to keep it brief.  Short public road favorite against a lesser team that's strong at home - great angle here.  No Lampard or Terry and Chelsea is reeling (1 goal in 3 games).  BC have played the upper table teams well this year (Drew AV, Pool, and Man U already).  Good luck folks.

Maryland +4.5 -107

Love this spot for my Terps today (not a homer bet - love a few angles here).  I'm glad Illinois lost because they match up so much better with Maryland than Texas does.  Last night, the Terps should've and could've beaten Pitt but couldn't hit a free throw to save their lives and ended up letting it slip away.  The final score doesn't tell the whole story of the game as they actually outplayed the fourth best team in country for most of the 2nd half.  On the flip side, Illinois got to OT on some hot shooting down the stretch from Cole that I just can't see being replicated.  Mixing together these two public perceptions of the game, I see a lot of value in the Terps here today.  Jordan Williams should dominate the interior with a double double.  Good luck folks.
