Guru's Golden Picks: AFL Week 4

[AFLGuru]

Yeah, I'm sorry, this 52 is too many points. There's one way this game gets to over in the 2nd half, and I'm confident that Joe Germaine can't do it...

Arizona gets the ball first in the 2nd half. If they get stopped once in the half, they're dead. Colorado can play slow down ball like it's no one's business... almost Orlando-esque, but not quite as efficient at times. I don't see Colorado getting to 80 in this game, which would be the required number approximately to reach the 52 in the 2nd half.

Watch this 3rd quarter be 7-0 in favor of Colorado. If that's what it is, there's no shot of this game getting there. 54 points in the 2nd quarter my a$$. I think this is a very solid 2nd half play.

you got every right to be upset AG this is YOUR thread i understand u go in to there threads but i have read your comments you just correct there mistakes for those of US who depend and trust the word of people that offer help in this sport.and if there correct like that guy that was the nfl capper on the under you promoted him here.only reason i began this afl is becuz of you.im sure im not the only one here cuz of you.look at the afl board besides you and a couple people interested in you it has nothing.its jealousy man dont sweat it i got a saying maybe you can adopt "when you on top people try to bring you down and when you dont sink they wonder why". keep doing your thing AG your the best if you need someone to go to bat then im your man i would rather them throw me off then you becuz you are what this forum is and should be all about.

Yeah Lakers, you're right about some of this. None of this is meant to be an ego trip in any way, shape, or form. I just hate it when idiots chime in who are clearly not here for the right reasons. Granted, I've brought some comic relief in here about my girlfriend and such, but it's all in just that, comic relief. None of this other crap should go here.

No one should get "removed" except maybe BrownsFan, who is clearly now getting ganged up on in a foolish sort of way. Everyone has a right to be upset, and I merely spoke for everyone. Hope that the moderators are listening and take care of it accordingly.

Meanwhile, in your under update... we've had 4 plays without a TD... I think that's the longest streak in this game to the minute....

 

[AFLGuru]

Lol... at least it took 5 minutes for the first score... C'mon Colorado, melt some clock on this drive...

 

[geeze]

Brownsfan,


What you don't understand, is that no one (on this thread) cares what you think or whether you won or lost.

There is a pleasant harmony and unusual fellowship among the players on AFLGuru's thread that are disrupted by your unwanted comments.

You obviously are consumed with jealousy because Guru has over 200 times more views than you, so you post contentious remarks to make people listen to you, and that way you hope to be noticed on his widely followed thread.

Why go where you are not wanted?

Good luck with your OWN thread.

Another net recovery for a TD... this is unreal. 50-49 with 9 minutes left in the 3rd quarter... We need a 7+ minute drive here that will probably end in one play for 6 points one way or the other...

 

[AFLGuru]

Colorado: *Muah* 5 minute drive, 0 points. Rattlers take over down a point on their own 5.

Now, Arizona... I know it's not in your contract with FSN for this game, but can we keep the scoring to a minimum... By the way, hell of a comeback in this one by the Rattlers. Maybe they will be a playoff team... Meanwhile, no one wants to win the division between Colorado and Chicago... no one...

 

[AFLGuru]

Should've been 7-0 Arizona in the quarter if not for the net recovery for 7... Going into the 4th with Arizona on the Colorado 3 and needing 39 to screw me... Still don't feel overly confident unless this takes awhile, though if the game stays close, the likelihood of the onside kick decreases.

 

[AFLGuru]

'Zona score with 12:30 left in the game... 20-0 in the 2nd half. Told you Colorado wasn't getting to 80... lol...

 

[AFLGuru]

10 and a half left and the feeling of another 40 point quarter is in the air... very disappointing indeed...

27 points, 25 to screw me in the 4th. 57-55 Crush in a great game. Simply a great back and forth battle to the finish. AFL at its finest.

 

[HinesWard86]

Ganging up on me, I'm just trying to share my love for the AFL dude. I love my Columbus Destroyers, they're awesome. I'm not trying to compete with AFLTutu, just share my AFL love

 

[AFLGuru]

Okay, Arizona, stop it... 62-57 with 8 minutes left... this not going by nearly fast enough.... 34 points in the half... 19 screws me. Can't have 3 more scores.

 

[AFLGuru]

Doo doo doo... Another Colorado TD... 41 in the 2nd half... 3:00 left in the game. IF Arizona plays to make this the last drive of the game, I'm a winner... if not, I'm probably a loser unless they turn it over. On the plus side however, our Grand Salami is literally in the bank. We need like 85 points per game in the last 3 tomorrow to win on it.

 

[AFLGuru]

And Joe Germaine craps the bed after a great great game... Pick on the first play of the drive... Colorado ball, 2:30 left on their own 2. A methodical drive and I'm a winner.

 

[AFLGuru]

And of course... true to form of the day, I'm screwed by BS again... Colorado, needing a first down to end the game, throws a bomb for a TD... 71-62 with 52 seconds left, and I need a stop to get my under... totally unlucky with this one.

 

[AFLGuru]

Lol... I wonder if this wasn't rigged up in some way, shape, or form... Colorado gave up a 51 yard kick return to the Colorado 6... 6 more yards and I can go to bed 3 units shorter once again... lol... Just not my night I guess.

 

[HinesWard86]

Wow, this Colorado-Arizona game has been insane. Points all over the place, dang.

 

[AFLGuru]

Ach, I had this one right too... And Joe Germaine's 9 touchdowns screwed me over... A net recovery for 7 points, Colorado throwing a bomb when they needed a first down to end the game... and despite all that, I'm still only losing by 3 points.

But I suppose I'll get this bounce in my favor at some point... Just don't know when... lol...

So I lost about 6 units today... I'll do all the math tomorrow.

--AFLGuru:toast:

 

[AFLGuru]

Two things on the plus side...

Though we're waiting to get the money taken from our 3 unit teaser, our 3 units on the over in the Grand Salami is now official... 79 ppg necessary tomorrow. Ridiculously over. We've reset the highest scoring game of the year twice.... tonight...

Arizona under 10 wins looks damn good with them at 1-3 assuming they can't score in the last 3 seconds... but you never know... this game has been insane. 74-69 Crush.... this is gonna be great for high numbers in Colorado games for at least the next 3 weeks.
