This time it was my fault for bringing in the cancer. My bad.

Best of luck on your health. Hang in there.

Do I get a knockout for this?

I will give you a knockout.....only because of the week of bleeding you've had.

Im now 673-1

The [1] is a mere blemish. Not like it's a Festering Zit or anything. Shhh...

ToutWorld all over Mets tonight. Pregame Stats:

NYM = 4-12 Away off Away Win by 2+ Runs
BAL = 30-6 Home off Home Loss

Did I just see Madison Bumgarner Pinch Hit with 26 Outs?!?

Giants bench is paper thin.....although I think Bumgarner got a pinch hit single the other night. Thought they would make a play for Utley. Chase has some game left in the tank yet.....not sure what dodgers do when Kendrick comes back though. Chase was rejecting every trade unless it was to LA so maybe giants couldn't get him.

10 Games complete today

Home Teams = 10-0

Currently trailing at Home = HOU/CIN/CUB

Anyone here a 'Live Bettor'?

Yes.

Live betting is great when a team is down big early, especially the home side. When a pitcher gets rocked in the first inning, more times than not he'll settle down as his team plays catch up. I don't find football or hoops nearly as predictable as MLB in those situations.

I like to bet Boise St live at Home when they go down 0-7

Home Teams 12-3 yesterday.

Home Teams 92-37 last 12 days.

CWSox last 14 Away = WWWWWWWLLLLLLL


ATL has lost 40 of its last 50 Road Games outside of Miami, where they are 6-0 this year.

Ah, so that's why the Cubbies are a 3-1 fav tonight. :think:

 

[ScottL]

No that's more about Jake Arrieta.

But do you want -260 with a Team that just got thumped twice by an AL Team who is out of it?

Also the Cubs are 0-3 following their 16-1 streak. And at Home just 20-19 last 39.

2-3(-95)
Don't know if this thread includes Futures/Props with value, but if Yes, 1/2 Unit on Tyrod Taylor (+325) to start Game 1 for Buff(Bookmaker).
Before Exhibition Game 1, Taylor and Cassel were Co Favorites at about +130. After game 1, where Cassel Dinked and dunked to 7-8 for 45 yards, he's now -400 and Taylor is +325? Cassel scored no points. Taylor was 5-8 for 48 yards, BUT led 2 TD drives in 3 drives had a big drop, and also scrambled 6 times for 47 yards. Taylor will start Exhibition game 2 against Cleve #1's, and if performs well, I think he wins the job. Worth a shot at good odds in what is a toss up with Cassel.

Taking my 1/2 Unit off the table, and locking in a $5 or $112 profit, in case Tyrod shits the bed in his audition. Market caught up to this and made Cassel +110, Tyrod -160.

BUFFALO BILLS STARTING QB IN 2015 RS WEEK 1
99160	MATT CASSEL			+110
99161	EJ MANUEL			+4280
99162	TYROD TAYLOR			-160

yest 7-7 +185
YTD 190-228 +3293

Not sure if this can help anyone and certainly not sure that these two things will continue (in fact I'm sure that the +200 mastadons won't), but a quick perusal of my spread sheets this morning left me with a couple of interesting stats:

5-0 /// the last five +200+ dogs I played.

36-10 /// 7/21 through 8/19 the moneyline bet when I play both the ML and RL on the same game.

I know that I should do the actual numbers but I don't have the time right now. Hosting my Fantasy League draft tomorrow night. Lots to get done for the 12 thugs who show up here.

Thursday:

Cle +136 (@ NYY)
Det -108 (vs Tex)
Bos -108 (vs KCy)
Phi +133 (@ Mia)
Hou -118 (vs TBy)
Hou -1' +182
Col +174 (vs Wash)
CWS +120 (@ LAA)

Thanks​

CIN = 31-13 at Home if they lost at least 4 of their past 5 Games since 4-21-2011.
CIN = 8-1 in Game #1 of a Home Series when off a Home Game.
