Guru's Golden Picks: CFL Experiment Week 2

[AFLGuru]

Bullcrap end to the half cost me the cover... Hamilton needed either a proper call (which the Rough Rider guys said was a bush pass interference call leading to the 2nd single) or even just a single from the last play of the half... but it stays under and the game is well on pace to stay way under, which would make this game profitable.

Hamilton (+1.5) vs. Saskatchewan 1st half L (-1.62 units)

Hamilton vs. Saskatchewan under 27 1st half W (+1 unit)

Very tempting to jump on Sask -1.5 for the 2nd half after watching that Hamilton offence:monsters-

I have not suffered two HORRIBLE beats like that back to back in a LONG time. SAS lets HAM go 109 YARDS IN ONE MINUTE to beat me. That after dropping an INT in the EZ that deflected to a HAM receiver. I AM READY TO KILL SOMEONE.

Glad I didn't jump on like everyone else was tempted to, and some probably did... Hamilton showing a lot of heart at the end for the backdoor cover. However, as far as I'm concerned, this game went just fine...Hamilton (+1.5) vs. Saskatchewan 1st half L (-1.62 units)

Hamilton vs. Saskatchewan under 27 1st half W (+1 unit)

Saskatchewan @ Hamilton under 54.5 W (+1.5 units)

Thus through 2 weeks of CFL action, I'm very happy with the results...

5-3 (+1.05 units) for week 2

ATS: 4-1 (+6.30 units)
Totals: 1-1 (-0.03 units)
Moneylines: 0-2 (-2.00 units)
1st half: 2-1 (+1.48 units)
2nd half: 2-1 (+2.87 units)
Overall: 9-6 (+8.62 units)

what an ending. :finger: saskatchewan.

if i didn't have the under and a sask+3.5/under 61.5 teaser, i'd get even more upset.

What is it with these teams that dominate for 55 minutes and then just do stupid things? Man, NO LEAD IS SAFE if you have the favorite. HAM had not scored on offense for 7 2/3 quarters. They need 2 TDs to beat me in 4+ minutes. NO PROBLEM, thanks to stupidity by SAS defense. I don't know if HAM had 109 yards of total offense all game until that last drive, but they sure got it there. Maybe it's time to get off of road favorites. Even EDM struggled for 3+ quarters against a sorry WIN team. TOR and SAS won, but barely, and MON choked on the big one.

scott I am right there with ya bud,,, I just about put a hole through my living room wall watching the end of that game,,, it should of been 42-7 Riders... Hamilton had no business being there... 2 very Fluky touchdowns,, and another one in the final minute the Riders giftwrapped for them with 2 roughing the passers and 2 pass interference calls,,, add to the fact that Rider K McCallum missed 3 chipshot fieldgoals,,, it just wasn't in the stars tonight... I lose this cover by half point,,,I still can't shake this loss,, getting more and more angry every minute I think about it...arrrghh.....

It was like watching MON last night. You just KNEW that you were going to lose. I KNEW somehow HAM would go 109 yards. The margin was 9. If it had been 8, and HAM could have tied it up with a TD and a 2, SAS would have been more focused. But they weren't, and decided to thug it up on McManus. HAM did not even face a third down on that drive. HAM had no business covering that game. OTT at least contributed to their win. HAM just let SAS drop INTs and commit penalties. Damn horrible.

Store what you saw of Hamilton away for next next game or later in the season...The offense stinks and they will not score many points for the year...

How about having your girlfriend break up with for no reason and wont have the decency to talk to me after being with me at my place for 1 1/2 years but leaves some of her stuff here and all kinds of things on my computer like pics, poems, and stories as she is a writer....

When I call her she says she is not ready to talk to me I tell her I am bringing her stuff over to her parents house and to get my house and car keys back from her says she will call me when she can come and get it....

I tell I will just leave it in the shed in her parents yard and to leave my keys there, she don't want me to come over there at all now before I could have lived there...So fvck her I am deleting every photo and file she saved on my computer...Fvcking Cvnts am sick of them!!! Did whatever I could for her and this is how she thanks me....

So I am not mad enough following the Hamilton game and take R-Riders 2nd half I am ready to kill anyone who bothers me right now.....

My best to you THawk... sounds a lot worse than any backdoor cover... you can get the cash back easier than the girl.

My guess is that it's still Ottawa that's gonna be the next team bashed...

Tears for the crying
Pull out your handkerchiefs
You're about to get your ass kicked by the Toronto Maple Leafs!!!!!!

Oh 3 cheers for Ottawa
A real team they are Nottawa
Hossa and Havlat-awa
Will soon be golfing a lottawa
What the hell else rhymes with Ottawa
Not a whole heck of a lottawa
They're the team we already forgottawa
Cuz the Stanley Cup will never go to Ottawa
