NEW SEASON: PLEASE READ

[winbet]

After reading a post from SaintJoe57, in which he stated that he was a saints fan, but only bet when he was sure they would win, I thought if we could get volunteers to cover a team that they specialize in, and post once a week, their thoughts ,injuries, etc, it would save everyone trawling for their threads.
I seem to remember The General posting a long article on the Colts and after backing The Titans in everything last year I am willing to cover them.
Any offers?

Great idea, but i had no luck in getting help. Do not understand why.

 

[Tankard]

I'll post on the Jets chances each week. I live in the area and follow them and their games closely. I made money covering the Jets last year.

I've had a winning record betting on the Raiders, but that was off-set by a particularily large wager I put on the Superbowl.

*ouch* what was I thinking?

 

[sanman]

great idea , i can cover the bills

 

[Jarbo]

I'll volunteer for the Packers.

Luck

I can backup Sanman, I live in Buffalo, hopefully there are goods thing's to come this year. Sanman, I will post any information you don't in your Bills thread.

Great idea Winbet! I was going to mention this later this month. The idea I had was to listen to the coaches radio and television shows each week. I live in Minnesota and Mike Tice lays it out on the table for you each week. A very honest guy. Hopefully he will continue to do that this year. I made a lot of money on the Queens last year with the help of Tice.

I don't live in Minnesota but I've followed the Vikings religiously for 10 years. I'll back up Sixth Sense or comment when I can. Maybe we can think of a way to standardize the TOPIC LINE for easy access.

VIKINGS - Local Report or something...

Thx.

 

[winbet]

Thanks everyone for the imput. Maybe the forum can put aside a thread for each team covered. I still have'nt heard from St Joe, and The Guesser seemed to have valuable info on the Chiefs. More offers please, everyone on this forum wants informed opinions, right or wrong, not posters who only want to be the big tipsters and crowd the forum when games go their way. We can all make our own bets, what we all want is more info.

 

[SixthSense]

Oorang - Chime in all you want. I will probably only be commenting on what I hear Tice say. If you want to handle the other stuff (print, etc.) feel free to.

WE should have a standardized thread header so we can spot the real information and weed through the BS, and believe me, there wil be plenty of BS..

Maybe do it all in caps.. BILLS, COLTS, RAIDERS OFFICIAL INFORMATION ONLY, or somthing, we could spot that easey.

Love this idea and hope we can make it happen, I will stay with it every week, hope other's do too.

As in taking part or just plain old depression?

 

[ProPlaya]

I will cover MIAMI.

 

[RPM]

ill cover the ravens. tried this in nba and everyone disappeared on me.

start the thread once a week winbet. ill be here.

 

[Tankard]

Sixth Sense is right. Radio coach inverviews have lots of insightful information that doesn't make it into press. Listen closely when you can.

 

[ESQAJM]

I'll cover the GIANTS. Although last year I read everything written about the Giants in my local papers and bet every Giant game played. I don't think I was much better than 50/50 in my bets, but I was well informed.

Thanks to everyone who posted. I have started a post Titans pre-season and hope some of you do the same with your teams. I think the majority of people here are interested in as much information as possible so that they can make judgements on their own bets, not just read what someone else is betting.


I think ESQAJM summed it up in his post,
50-50 but well informed.
