The A's game went from both teams favored to A's favored and the it showed Angels favored.......I couldn't figure it out I just happened to look when they were both at a minus and as I watched the line it went everywhere and made no sense to me by game time and no longer fell into this angle. They must not of been at 2 favorites very long I did not remember seeing it the night before.

Usually I look for games where the lines are close but people are heavy on the dog. That tends to move the line right to both teams at a minus

Yup. Detroit +104. I like it! I dialed it in last night.

Most likely I will go with LSU after thar, pending some more research. Good luck today everyone!

I don't like it. I am hoping for the best for MC, but I never like going against the other teams ace in a double revenge or greater situation.

It should be a wild game with lots of runs, but the outcome could go either way, in my opinion.

Good luck to all on this one.

Thanks for the explanation, Booyahz. had been wondering the same thing as Smooth about this trend. Wow! That was a lot of tracking to follow the lines all the way to the first pitch and there was quite a bit of movement there. Good luck, man.

I found nothing available for today as of 3PM ET, but I think there were two mlb games with odds at -130 or lower that started already. One of them was the Tigers and White Sox, with the White Sox -112 despite the fact that the Tigers are Red Hot with 11 straight wins and the White Sox are ice cold. The other had the Red Sox at exactly -130 when the game started. The leader at 21 got the Red Sox when their line was -117. Since there is nothing left today, I checked tomorrow and I love the pick I went for which is LSU -3.

Wow that redsox game was hard to take. I lost my W7 on SFTC and W3 on SS because francona is one of the dumbest managers of all time. I can never imagine how the guy with W21 took it. Great streak tho and i congratulate him on $25,000

Yes thank you Booyahz for clarifying that for us. That is one hella of angle you have been tracking. I know that I have made money off it this year. I'm concerned about my Detroit pick on SFTC as of this writing they are down 5-2 to the White Sox.

Yes I saw that. I have the game on my computer. I really want to get that star on SFTC. It's a tough month over there as we all know!

MC2010 GETS SHOT DOWN BY TORONTO ON THE WAY TO PARADISE! THAT WAS ONE GREAT RUN. MC2010 HAS $25K TO HELP WIPE AWAY THE TEARS. THATS NOT BAD. THIS WAS THE LONGEST STREAK SINCE TUPPY'S 22 GAMER IN 2007 AND TIED FOR THE 2ND LONGEST STREAK EVER. OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT!

We need one of our own now to start getting the glory and letting people know what the $25 Dime Club is about! How about a parade of members heading for Paradise. Let's shake the books up and make them get all nervous and jittery. Let's Ride Fellas and Hot Girl!

The part of that angle I would like more results for is 2 AL EAST teams against each other which has happened 3 times

BOS(-104) at Tampa(-102) 09-09-2011

BOS(-101) at TOR(-105) 09-07-2011

Tampa(-103) at BOS (-103) 08-17-2011

I have been tracking the 2 favorite angle since July 20th

I jumped on Boston without thinking because I saw McLeader had it and he was on a tear.........guess I mushed him.........lol

look for the under in Thursday college football when the teams played the Saturday before I have had success with that in the past especially early in the season

Congrats to Mc2010.........hell of a run that's for sure......

Hey Bama, I posted a couple days ago asking you a question, but I'm guessing you missed it.....I'm pretty sure your the guy that turned me on to that Sports Parlor website, do you know anything about why it's still showing the contest for August, I mean is it normal for it to take this long to get the next month's contest listed? Or do you think that the website has just kinda gone under, which would suck since I just got on it & it seems like there's not that many people on it, like maybe 20-25 at best which was good for us, giving us much better chances of actually winning, like I believe you said you had, winning a jersay, but probably not good for the longevity of the site having only a small number of participants.

I sent them a email asking, & posted on their Facebook page, but still haven't heard anything back.

Let's keep it going with Detroit- do not see this team losing anytime soon, picked Justin Ver to win Cy Young in spring training, going for win number 6... Not to sure like you guys with LSU, line is too fishy and it looks like a trap game. GL all and Keep Surviving

I saw the question, but I thought it ws directed at Booyahz. He's the guy with whom you should speak, as he put us all on Sports Parlor, if I am not mistaken. As for my part, I have only been on there for about a month. I personally don't know anything and had been wondering about the status of the sit, myself. As long as they keep putting up fresh picks, I willassume that they are still active and continue to make picks on there. Good luck, Trax. I have noticed that you are having a nice run on SFTC, at least percentage wise. Keep on winning.
