Thurs 9/30 CFB Lean

CFB YTD 22-14-1, 61%

I won't count leans or opinions in my record.

But I will give them out from time to time.

Anyway this is my lean for tonight.

Texas A&M+3(-120)(push)

Best Wishes!!

The Aggies jumped out to a 21-7 lead at the half.

Then trailed 35-21 in the 4th.

Tied it, only to lose by 3 in OT.

No way anyone shoulda lost on this game.

If you took OK St you shoulda laid -2.5.

So you either pushed with A&M+3 or won with OK St-2.5.

NFL Week 1

Not sure what to expect to open the season.

It's hard to get a good read in preseason.

So, I'm mainly just gonna fade the most popular plays and see what happens.

Let's try these.

Bills+3(+105)(loss)
Bucs-2.5(-120)(Winner)
Eagles+3(-120)(loss)
Seahawks+3(-105)(Winner)
Cowboys-3(-116)(loss)

Best Wishes!!

Mildly disappointing 2-3 start in the NFL.

The Eagles were tough to watch while Kolb was in there.

Vick looked solid. So it looks like we may have a QB controversy already.

I know Reid is committed to Kolb.

But the fans won't be patient if he continues to play poorly.

Gonna make great sports talk radio.

Over 8.5(-115) Mil-Phi(loss)
Braves-114(loss)
Over 9.5(-120) Atl-Fla(loss)
Rockies+135(Winner)

note: Brewers+220 is good value, IMO, if you can get it.

CFB Bonus Play(5pm ET kick)
Villanova+4(loss)
Going down to the game. I'm biased towards Nova naturally.
But, I would have taken the points regardless of the Fav here.
These games are always tight, so I'm gonna take anything over 3.
I lean to Temple outright, this may be their year.

Best Wishes!!


Well in MLB my Over picks were horrible 0-2, that led me to a 2-3 day.

But the killer was the Temple-Nova game. And I was there to see it.

I don't usually cry about bad beats, but that one stung.

Temple kicks a game winning FG to lead 25-24, the clock reads :00.

They put 3 seconds back on the clock. That seemed right cuz it was :08 to start.

On the kickoff, after about 5 laterals, Temple intercepts one and runs it in.

31-24 Final, OUCH!!

And this is after Nova had taken the lead 24-22 with 1:40 left. Wow.

Thurs 9/2 Triple Play

Nice night in sports for a Thurs as CFB kicks off.

MLB playoff push continues and the NFL wraps up these X-games.

Back to the lab we go.
