Goose you nailed it.  If this game isn't a coin flip then what else would qualify?

This game isn't a coinflip. Wisconsin has a clear cut advantage. I'm confused as to why as many people don't truly see how GREAT this team is. How many teams have the BEST player in the country, and like the 6th best player in the country. Add to that one of the best defenders in the country, a PG who doesn't turn it over and nails clutch 3s (even tho he isn't great on D) and Hayes who is automatic from mid-range, can drive and hit the 3.

GL to all


Priceless!!!!!!!!!!

And that was with Okafor on the bench most of the game.  I took Duke on the ML at EV and under 140.  Nice parlay hit though I was worried that they were going to hit the over with FT's at the end.

You correctly capped (even if you did not state it) that a white player would dominate this game. Unfortunately it was Duke's white boy in Grayson MFin Allen.

Onto bases

You will survive Nick.  It's not fatal.  I know it probably feels that way right now, but you have the Bankroll to step up and bounce back.  You always have and I still believe you can and will.  Call you tomorrow afternoon.  I got a fresh Ambien script and need a few after that game.

Goodnight Covers.

If I was in full baseball mode I would have taken the orioles and texas rangers today and split and won a little vig... so no big deal I didn't play either... not like I would have went 2-0 then it would have been bonehead to not play my leans

GoldenGoose, my pal. We have the same strategy in bases. Moneyline dogs. I hit up Bartolo fat fuckk Colon and the Mets for +185 yesterday.  What I like about this  strategy is you can be sub .500 winning % and make money. Got any games you like today?

  Those fouls can kill you. That will be The CG's mantra (excuse for losing) on this game. How many free throws did Duke make after the 10 minute mark?  Or doesn't that matter? Just the number of fouls matters?  CONSIN flat out got beat and number of fouls in 2nd half had little or nothing to do with it.

Speaking of fouls, Wisconsin made a horrible decision imo by fouling intentionally with a 14 second difference between game clock and shot clock down 3. Get a stop and shoot a 3, putting jones on the line as an 80+ free throw shooter was idiotic.

I know nothing about current basketball (players etc)...

But I do know something about game theory - and couldn't agree with this post more.  Just makes zero sense to foul there.

The coach thought so too.  Mistake by a kid in a tense situation.
