If you don't mind I would like to know all of the books that you play with. I need more outs.




If you don't want to answer that's cool and I will understand

I have many, many accounts but not all funded at one time. Rather then list all the books in which I have accounts, I will list the ones that I fund most often and in the level that I consider each to be. By level, I mean books by tier. I only fund my first three levels. Keep in mind, this is my own personal preference and my reasoning and judgment certainly may not match others and their particular needs. All things considered, my primary criteria is security. So here they are:

First Tier

WSEX
Pinnacle
Olympic
WWTS

Second Tier

Cris
Canbet
Grande
Hollywood
Millenium
BoDog

Third Tier

Five Dimes
Skybook
Allstarsportsbook

Hope this helps you out somewhat.

My wagering year begins with football season and ends with the conclusion of basketball season. Since registering with the RX last December, I have rated my plays from 1*-5*. Last year, I released 1*, 3* and 5* plays only. I released only one 5* play, seventeen 3* plays, and the remaining plays all 1* plays. This year, most plays have been 1* plays with only two plays being 2* plays, which last year I most likely would have rated as 3* plays. In my next post, I will be announcing a change in my ratings from 1*-5* to 1*-3*. I have decided to do this as a more conservative approach for the forum members and viewers.

Now, to specifically answer your question, because of this change, a 3* play will be equivalent to the former 5* play. These plays are very rare for me. Over the course of an entire wagering year, the maximum number of plays in this category would most likely not exceed 5 or 6. Too date, no match-up has met all the criteria needed to warrant such a release. I'm sure there will be some in the future, perhaps during the bowls or playoffs, if not sooner. I hope this has provided you some insight into my thought process. Best of luck to you this season.

My health issues still remain about the same. I just deal with it the best that I can from day to day. I've seen enough specialists to last a lifetime. I remain hopeful to be able to live as normally as possible. Thanks for asking. Glad to hear you like the Chargers as well. Best of luck this weekend and throughout the remainder of the season.

Very much like the way the Steelers are currently playing showing a balanced attack with Staley and unusual poise by Big Ben. Manner in which Pittsburgh handled a very experienced Patriot team last week is of note that this team is legitimate. Same situation this week with the undefeated Eagles coming to town. Eagle defense noteably aggressive but also yielding 4.8 ypc on the ground. Not convinced Philadelphia plays nearly as well on the road, partcularly out of conference, as they do at home. On the other hand, Steelers appear to be improving weekly and should be up for this game in an attempt to take down the last of the unbeatens. Cowher should have this team ready to play in front of a very hostile home crowd. Therefore, I have decided to add this game. Updating my card for the day:

1* Pittsburgh Pk
1* San Diego -6

Good Luck All.

Recognize that the first game of the season these two teams played each other to a defensive battle with Cleveland holding Jamal Lewis to 57 yards and winning the game 20-3. But since that time, the Brown defense has loosened while the Ravens continue to play strong on defense as shown on the road in Philadelphia last week. Lewis returns following his suspension and Boller looks far more comfortable at this stage of the season then early in the year. Browns coming off a bye week which should have them fresh but Ravens coming off battling one of the leagues best teams so their level of play should be intense, particularly in light of the earlier loss to the Browns. Feeling here is that the defensive difference and improved offense should ultimately separate these two teams. Hence, I am adding one final game to my card. Final update:

1* Pittsburgh Pk
1* San Diego -6
1* Baltimore -5.5

Good Luck All.

Thanks, OldmanTed... as always your input is so much appreciated by all who meander this oasis from time to time.... By the way, I hope your health is holding up and that you are feeling as young and well as possible under your circumstances. I wish you and yours the very best of times. I am constantly reminded that if I and my loved ones don't have our collective health... we have nothing!

Truly appreciate the very kind and sincere words. Very generous of you to share your thoughts and you said it all. Without our health we have nothing. All the money and possessions are of little value. Our loved ones and good friends are priceless. Wishing you all my very best in your future endeavors.

Which fantasy defense would you play.

Best of luck this week Ted. I would tend to lean your way on all 3 here. I have a question for you, if you have no opinion that's fine. But since you played all the following games I know you have a stong opinion on them......I am just at a crossroads on which fantasy football team to play: Browns, Pitt, Philly, or SD.

Thanks, MFG

Since I don't know the rules of your particular fantasy league and you just named the teams, I'll have to make an assumption that you have to choose an entire team and not players from all teams to make up your team. If this is the case and I had to choose between the four teams as to which is most likely to win their particular game tomorrow, I would say San Diego. Don't know if this helps you or not, but I hope you win your game.

Just realized that you were asking me about which of the four defensive teams to choose for your fantasy league. That is a little tougher question. I will assume that your league is points only for scoring from your defense. If that is the case, must look for which team might create turnovers for scores. If it also includes special teams, then have to take that into consideration. Can see why this would be a tough call out of these four teams. Slight lean to San Diego followed closely by Pittsburgh or Philadelphia with Cleveland being my last choice. Hopefully, I have understood your league format properly. Once again, best of luck with you league as well as you plays tomorrow.
