nice call on both over...sorry for the derby though; by far "match of the night", I lost money on it, but they both put up a great show. I really believe that you can achieve top performance from players, mostly because you are a real coach: Spalletti and Rossi are probably the best , in my humble opinion, among the ones sitting on serie A benches. With that being said, big props to you also for Napoli call.

SERIE A WEDNESDAY

It was a truly wacky Serie B Tuesday:

Avellino scoring three goals against Albinoleffe
Pisa hammered for four goals by usually anemic Piacenza
Chievo unable to handle last place Ravenna

I hope today's Serie A is not as murdereous...The fact of the matter is I like the entire card, and past experience has shown that - when presented with such vibes - I end up getting crushed.
Anyhow, I am navigating the storm as follows:

Sampdoria at AC MILAN
Over 2 and 2.5 -133 (7.5 units)
First half: AC MILAN -0.5 +112 (3.5 units)
SAMPDORIA 2 AC Milan 1
Samp scoring a metric tonne of goals; with Cassano's return to the pitch they could really charge up the table.

Palermo at PARMA
Over 2 and 2.5 -120 (7.5 units)
PARMA 2 Palermo 1
Palermo really starting to suck.

Juventus at EMPOLI
Juventus -0.5 and -1 -113 (4.5 units)
EMPOLI 0 Juventus 0
Failure to win this game was monumental...

AS Roma at LAZIO
As Roma -0.5 +108 (4 units)
LAZIO 3 AS Roma 2
Failure to win this game was...(actually is) the end of the road.

Fiorentina at NAPOLI
NAPOLI PK +105 (4 units)
NAPOLI 2 Fiorentina 0
Braveheart.

Udinese at TORINO
TORINO pk and -0.5 +100 (3.5 units)
Udinese 1 TORINO 0
Refrain from comments.

Atalanta at CAGLIARI
Atalanta pk +161 (3 units)
CAGLIARI 1 Atalanta 0
Atalanta: One of the most abnormal units in the "A" league.

Best of luck to all.

For today's Serie A can recommend two best bets:
  • The over 2.25 (not 2.5!) in the AC MILAN / SAMPDORIA game
  • The over 2.25 (not 2.5!) in the PALERMO / PARMA game
I believe by the half we have a clear indication if these two are winners or losers. We need 1-nil halftime scores or they are finished.

Best of luck to all.

On a non related note: PSP3 / Wii / Xbox, which do you recommend for me to purcahse.

SERIE A WEDNESDAY: 3W - 5L - 0T (+0.12 units)

best of luck to all.

SERIE B - Friday, March 21st

Good Friday to all.

Brescia at TRIESTINA
Brescia pk -122 (8 units)
Over 2 -125 (4 units)

Ascoli at CESENA
Ascoli pk and +0.5 +108 (6 units)

Albinoleffe at MANTOVA
Mantova pk and -0.5 +107 (6 units)

Ravenna at TREVISO
Over 2 and 2.5 -113 (4.5 units)

Bari at MESSINA
Messina pk and -0.5 +105 (4 units)

Frosinone at BOLOGNA
Bologna -1 and -1.5 +108 (4 units)

Grosseto at PISA
Pisa -0.5 -128 (3.5 units)

For Friday's Serie B, Brescia is a best bet at PK line. Ascoli at PK and +0.5, and Mantova at PK and -0.5 are good medium plays considerations.

Best of luck to all.

Greetings,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
Complete disaster today. Things went from bad to worst in the last five minutes of just about every game I had a play on.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
The damage was as follows: 1W – 7L – 3T (-30.543 units)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Where we stand for 2008 (overall calendar year results):<o:p></o:p>
199W – 190L – 84T (+32.978 units)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
With that being said, it would not be advantageous to consider any of my plays as I am in one of my patented mid-march downward trends. The duration of such futility can potentially extend into April, thus it would be wise to wait that I crawl out of my recession mode.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Venturing into Sunday as follows:
<o:p></o:p>

<?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:City><st1:place>Cagliari</st1:place></st1:City> at SAMPDORIA<o:p></o:p>
A draw would be a useless result for both of these. Sampdoria’s schedule for the remainder of the season is a double-edged sword with relatively easy opponents early (<st1:City><st1:place>Cagliari</st1:place></st1:City> / Empoli / <st1:place>Livorno</st1:place> / Reggina), followed by tough matches against the likes of Fiorentina, Roma, and Juventus. I have said this many times with respect to Sampdoria playing at home, it’s all or nothing. They can be so dull and flat, or a complete predator (5 times this year they have shut the opponent down with identical 3-0 scores). <st1:City><st1:place>Cagliari</st1:place></st1:City> making last ditch efforts to avoid relegation with 3 victories in the last four games, but the fact of the matter is that they are horrible defensive team with no nucleus at midfield. Sampdoria is in excellent scoring form and will run right through them.<o:p></o:p>
SAMPDORIA -1 +130 (8 units)<o:p></o:p>
Over 2.5 +104 (4 units)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
<st1:place>Napoli</st1:place> at REGGINA<o:p></o:p>
<st1:place>Napoli</st1:place> +0.5 -138 (6 units)<o:p></o:p>
First half: Over 0.5 and 1 -130 (2.5 units)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
<st1:place>Livorno</st1:place> at UDINESE<o:p></o:p>
UDINESE -0.5 and -1 -107 (5 units)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Empoli at ROMA<o:p></o:p>
First half: ROMA -0.5 -133 (4.5 units)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
<st1:City><st1:place>Genoa</st1:place></st1:City> at <st1:City><st1:place>PALERMO</st1:place></st1:City><o:p></o:p>
Over 2.5 +100 (4 units)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
Lazio at FIORENTINA<o:p></o:p>
FIORENTINA -0.5 and -1 +150 (4 units)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
<st1:City><st1:place>Parma</st1:place></st1:City> at <st1:City><st1:place>SIENA</st1:place></st1:City><o:p></o:p>
<st1:City><st1:place>Parma</st1:place></st1:City> pk +150 (3.5 units)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p></o:p>
AC Milan at <st1:place>TORINO</st1:place><o:p></o:p>
<st1:place>TORINO</st1:place> +0.5 -104 (3.5 units)

My recommendation is a best bet on Sampdoria -1, and solid medium play on Napoli +0.5
<o:p></o:p>
Best of luck to all.<o:p></o:p>

samp were playing well and missed 4-5 good chances then cagliari hit back on a counter late in 1H and lead 1-0. very optimistic they will turn this around...hopefully even the HC

now samp looks awful ... cagliari two huge misses for 2-0 and just got a goal incorrectly called offside (was not even close so hopefully linesman has samp). still 1-0 with a half hour left

I'm actually cheering for Empoli to draw even with Roma at 2-2. Then we can unload on Juventus.

If Roma wins, I will probably take the Inter -0.5. Plain and simple.

Juventus at INTER MILAN
INTER MILAN -0.5 +111 (6.5 units)
Over 2 and 2.5 -115 -114 (3 units)

First half: INTER MILAN pk and -0.5 +126 (2.5 units)

I believe this is the scudetto.

Best of luck to all.
