Any, and every, NFL game/season is full of "ifs".

Long Term Bets
*~*~*~*~*~*

NBA Championship 07/08

Boston Celtics 4/1

I do understand how some may not be interested in a 4/1 shot, however this team's defence, is close to being the greatest of all time!
Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce on the defencive side are monsters!
The true elite of this game!

Golden State Warriors 33/1

Fact: Last years success against the Mavericks was for real.
The Warriors are as good as they looked, and are capable, based on not having to play the Celtics, of getting into the Finals.
And 33/1 looks very attractive!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Howard and Paul make it interesting to look at their 16/1 and 28/1 teams.
Orlando's hopes look Grim having Boston as their opponents before the Finals.
While the Hornets have many teams that are capable of beating them.
I do favour Chris Paul's game better than Nash's.
Paul's defence is of greater value than Nash's assists.
Add the fact that Paul is scoring like a mofo, and you've got New Orleans, easily, a better team than Phoinex!

Wouldn't it be interesting to watch a Lakers vs Celtics Finals?

I'd still have money on the Celtics should it come to that.
For those of you who would want to have money on the Lakers in that scenario, I suggest you place it now while the price is at 16/1

Super Bowl

New York Giants @ New England Patriots(-12)

I got an early wager on the Giants at +13.5, But I can't really give that, for at this time its at +12.0.

The people's money is in fact on the Patriots.
Record breaking wager's in this years Superbowl.
Who would have thunk it?

There are 2 possibilities.
1st possibility: The Patriots win under the spread.
This would result in great profit collecting the billions wagered on the Patriots in this game.
2nd possibility: The Giants win the game.
This would result in the greatest profit for they would not only collect the billions wagered on the patriots in this game, but they'd also collect all the long term bets on the Patriots.

Bet Heavily on the Giants(+12)

Put some money on the Giants win at 4,25

I'd talk about the game, but its not really about the game, is it?

I was actually looking to quote myself from a few months back where i mentioned that they'd give you an excuse as to why the masses will lose their money on the Patriots, but I can't find it.
Well...... it looks like the excuse will be Brady.
It certainly looks like something being set up.

I thought it was Belicheck setting up all the dumbasses in the media to concentrate on "das boot." I'm anxious to see if he is even really hurt.

I get the feeling Brady is pulling a media stunt with "das boot". We shall see how he is by gametime. So far things shape up to be quite interesting and am eagerly awaiting developments. @WHIP, what makes you so confident the Giants will win this crucial game?

Is there an echo in this thread?

If the line has moved that far, doesn't it mean people are betting the Giants?

Robsterman, read carefully before posting.
You're not making sense.
Try using the quote so people know wtf you're refering toi.

In heavily wagered games... no.
In this case, as I predicted to those close to me, the price did go down.
This results in those who wagered on the Patriots at -13.5 to place more money now that its down to -12.
Its guidance towards the loosing side.
They've got this down to a science.
This game is pre-determined.

i dreamt that the giants won. i was pissed cuz whip was right. is that wrong of me?

LJ LJ LJ....
I thought we were on the same side here.
I think that me being right would benefit you more than me being wrong.
I mean, you think after these past 2 years in this thread, people would kinda see the evidence of the whole money factor?

Would this not cause one to maybe wager a very large sum of mone on something that is pre-determined?
Would it feel like gambling?
No, it would feel like what it is.... free money.

..........and just for the record.
I'm saying:Place a bit of money on the Giants winning the game at 4.25.

Place A LOT of money on the Giants beating the spread!

i'm right there with you LJ. I don't give a rat's ass about either team but i really don't want to see belichek get another ring so i'll be cheering for the giants. but it'll be in the back of my head that WHIP will think it proves his money ideas right. and that'll annoy me.

Money and media are the two keys to taking the so called "FREE MONEY"
Media guides the money.
The Money is always taken.

In this thread, I've mentioned media and money on some games.
Here's a copy and paste of all extreme media brainwashed and heavily wagered, one sided games(Free money games).
and the results

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
............result : Minnesota Vikings 7-9 Green Bay Packers(-4,5) ....WIN

....result : San Fransisco 49ers 26-23 Denver Broncos(-9,5) ........WIN

.....result : Indianapolis Colts 15-6 Baltimore Ravens(-3,5) ..........WIN

.....result : Philadelphia Eagels 24-27 New Orlean Saints(-5,5) ......WIN

....results : Jacksonville Jaguars 20-31 New England Patriots(-13.0) ....WIN

although retractred, it is exact.

....result : San Diego Chargers 12-21 New England Patriots(-14) .....WIN

There is no coincidence.
Luck, has nothing to do with my success.

aren't you the same guy that argued a couple years ago that sheffield wednesday and united would always be kept apart by the powers that be? and that Champions League games are fixed?

Wherever the money is, they take it away.
Wether thats the superbowl, the Champions league final, the Uefa cup final, or the world cup final.

Why don't you take a little look into recent history to see wether or not they took the money.
On soccer finals, the money is laid on either of the teams winning.
The draw is the most profitable.
How interesting to see how most heavily wagered soccer games head into overtime.

Of course you can call it coincidence.:smashfrea
