Friday Night Card
Dallas (-10) vs. Nashville (3 units -105): Dallas enters this game flaming mad off of a bye week and a loss to Colorado the week before. Nashville is sky high after posting a ferocious comeback against Grand Rapids, shutting them out in the 2nd half. However, this Kats team ain't marching into Dallas and pulling any sort of an upset this week. @ Grand Rapids, nice job. But in Dallas, where there are actually fans and actually a real team? Not happening this time. Nashville is a nice little story getting off the pine, but Leon Murray has been nothing short of miserable this year, and Dallas continues to roll over lesser opponents. If Nashville reaches 35 in this game I'd be surprised... which brings us to our next bet... but to close this one out...
Current Line: -13 (-105)... Bet to about 16 at 3 units, 16.5 to 20 at 1.5-2 units
Dallas/Nashville under 100.5 (3 units -105): Even if Dallas scores 65 this should be alright... lol... But in seriousness, Nashville has had a hard time reaching 40, meaning this bet is for Nashville to not get 60 dropped on them, a task that's been impossible thus far. Sperdeuto still has himself a wail of a defense. Look for the final in this one to be Dallas in the mid 40s to Nashville in the high 20s... something REALLY ugly like that.
Current Line: 97.5 (-110)... Bet to about 94 for 3 units, 90-93.5 at 2 units
Columbus (pk) @ Arizona (4 units -105): Movement on this line puzzles me a bit. Arizona has shown no signs of winning games at home of late, finding a way to lose each time at home this season. Columbus has at least shown some pulse lately, having made a nice comeback against Philly and playing New York tough. Columbus at 4 points is a steal in my opinion. Joe Germaine looks pretty crappy still, and I expect Columbus' defense, still not nearly as bad as one might think, to keep this one close until the end, when Arizona will shoot itself once again. Might throw a bit more down on Columbus with the points, but I expect this one to bounce back quickly.
Currently Line: +4 (-104).... Bet back to a pick for 4 units, -1 to -2.5 at 3 units
Las Vegas (-7) vs. Grand Rapids (4 units -105): Ah, the Rampage... Back for more after the self-destruction in the 2nd half. Don't you think for a second that Vegas' defense is SALIVATING at this game after watching tape from Bishop running around like a chicken with his head cut off while Hines was blanketed. Don't see Grand Rapids' offense being anywhere near potent in this one, as Vegas' defense will match up just like Nashville did. Watch the offense led by Dolezel to go nutso, and this one shouldn't end up being very close in the end. Vegas wins by a ton if they want to, but it's the motivation that keeps this from being 5 units. But even that should be sky high seeing how they're 5-5 and still in the thick of the playoff race. Get better game for the Glads in front of the home crowd after two rough ones.
Current Line: -13 (-105)... Bet away up to about 17 for the listed units
