Oh, sorry. I didn't realize the 6 spreads not marked minus should be minus also. My bad.

that is so confusing!

let me just say......Go Cowboys! The Dolphins will be the unfortunate recipients of an inspired defensive smack down in response to the piss poor performance of opening day. 24-3 final score. Marion Barber will punch 2 in from inside the red zone, Crayton on a deep route and a field goal chip in early.

either that, or my crystal ball is AFU.

My pool requires a minimum of 4 games and the Eagles/Redskin game isn't on it.
Giants, Bills, Dolphins & Chargers.

Its a rip-off, go elsewhere.
The net income of a bookie that requires 4 is much much greater than that of a (fair) bookie who requires 3.
Thief would be a better term.

payout....
with 3 wins:3's payout 1 bet = $10X2X2X2=$80
with 3 wins:4's payout 0 bets = $0

with 4 wins 3's payout 4 bets =$80X4=$320
with 4 wins 4's payout 1 bet = $10X2X2X2X2=$160

with 5 wins 3's payout 10 bets = $80X10=$800
with 5 wins 4's payout 5 bets = $160X5=$800

so as you can see, its just stupid to bet 4 games per bet when you can bet 3

now in the 6-7 option, it would be simply wiser to bet the 6-7, but you'll rarely win, especially at these odds ....end result=4's are not a good idea.

Seriously, look for somewhere else to bet.

I don't believe in crystal balls, and i'm a witch.
The deep route sounds possible, but Marion from the inside ain't gonna be happening against the Dolphins.

This is where the lesson about beting the maximum of 10% of your spare money comes in handy.

Marion Barber scored on runs of 1 and 40 yards. He finished with 89 yards to help Dallas control the ball for 35 minutes.

i was 3/4 right?

Dude, the punches were from 1 yard out ...the Dolphins did stop the man all day. And you can't be happy with your team.
You allowed 20 points from the worst offence in the NFL.
The Bears are gonna kick your butt next week, and the Redskins are gonna win the division easily.

[lumberjim]

oh. i didnt realize you were a hater.

is the 1 yard line in the red zone or not?

the cowboys have a very potent offenSe. The Bears are a tough team, I admit....and they might win......but the Cowboys wont suck ass like the eagles did against the redskins tonight!

[W.HI.P]

A hater of who?
The man got stopped all night long.
And the Cowboys defence sucks.
You see what it says in my signature?
Well, thats what its all about, and your team ain't got any of it.
and dude...The redskins were my money maker tonight.
As you can see, i don't just follow my team blindly.
I see a superior team and I wager house against my Eagles.
6-0 will the Redskins go against the division this year, just watch.

[lumberjim]

a cowboys hater, of course.....most eagles fans are....understandably.

and yes, i fear you're right. The boys Defense is seriously troubled. Scoring 41 pts per game is a good way of compensating to it. the best defense is a good offense? 89 yards and 2 TDs from a backup RB is being stopped?

i dont gamble, whip.....but i do talk shit. thanks for playing

[W.HI.P]

Lets put it this way....when was the last time a team won a superbowl without a defence?

[lumberjim]

the superbowl is a long way off. And defenses are about teamwork. that shit can change in a season. I'm not saying I EXPECT the cowboys to take it all the way, but.....i do think they will win the division. forgetthe foreskins.
