Service Plays Monday 8/23/10

[Can'tPickaWinner2]

The Rx.com Mod Team has created this Service Play sub-forum in order to supply an area for Rx Service Play Posters to expand upon their posting topics without creating a logjam in the main forum where the three principle threads are maintained..

Posters can track services here if they care to but we will need any trackers to do so in an accurate and civil manner. We did not create this area for posters to ridicule or bash any services..

You can also discuss who is hot and who is not. The general state of the pay for plays industry and any other subject or topic related to service plays.

You can also create individual threads about specific services and discuss them freely but civilly. Again bashing and abusive treatment of any services will not be tolerated.

Please remember, this forum is not here for regular posters who cap their own games to post ther daily plays. Please use our individual sport forums to post your plays. Professional cappers (those that sell plays) must remain in the Site Promotion Forum.

The Rx.com will not tolerate posters that post false records of any services they track. Please be truthful if you decide to track a particular service.

Lastly The Rx Moderators are appealing to you our everyday posters to report any promotional threads or posts that are made by services or individual touts. No links or contact information to an individual service will be allowed. Just the name of the service. Please report any threads or posts that are promotional attempts by services and touts to use this forum to promote themselves..

Posters can easily report a promotional post by using the triangular Report-a-Post Icon at the bottom left of all post boxes. The poster name of any poster who reports a post that is out of line will be kept strictly confidential.

I will leave this thread open for a month to take questions and do my best to answer them. I will check in daily but am off on Wednesday and Thursday.

I hope this additional Service Play Forum will satisfy those posters that would like to widen the scope of topics relating to service plays and the industry in general to have their own threads. Mods will be liberal as possible regarding topics but this forum was specifically created to allow you more freedom to express your ideas regarding service plays and related subject matter. No off topic threads will be allowed.

Thank you, wilheim

Cardinals At Titans: What Bettors Need To Know

Proof Of Life

Matt Leinart didn’t do anything to make Arizona backers forget about Kurt Warner with his preseason Week 1 performance.

Sure he completed six of his seven pass attempts, but the first-team offense failed to score and backup QB Derek Anderson was even worse when he took the field.

“There were a couple of times in the first half, offensively, where it was a joke, to be quite honest with you,” Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt told the Arizona Republic the day after the game against the Texans. “Plays that we had run 25 times in two weeks looked like it was the first time we’d run it.”

Leinart’s assessment of his play was much more positive but reporters had to wait until the next day to hear from him. The former Heisman winner ducked out before the press got a chance to question him after the game.

Regardless, it’s pretty clear that Whisenhunt wants to see a better performance on the field from his projected starting quarterback in the second exhibition game.

Punch Drunk Love

The news of the week for the Titans was dominated by a punch thrown by running back LeGarrette Blount at a teammate during team practice Wednesday night.

Blount was of course suspended for most of his senior year at Oregon because of a sucker punch he threw at a Boise State player.

The rookie immediately apologized for the act of aggression and wasn’t punished by head coach Jeff Fisher, who downplayed the whole incident.

Music City Miracle reports that the Wednesday night practice was noticeably more physical than other scrimmages the Titans have had so far in training camp.

Injuries

Leinart and Anderson will be missing a couple big offensive weapons on Monday night. Receivers Larry Fitzgerald and Early Doucet are both expected to sit out against the Titans because of injuries.

Fisher said Titan players Justin Gage (WR), Cortland Finnegan (CB), David Thornton (LB), William Hayes (DE) and Tony Brown (DT) all would not play. The Tennessee coach didn’t rule out rookie defensive end Derrick Morgan from Monday’s game even though he’s yet to participate in a full practice because a lingering calf injury.

Starter Report

Both coaches were being a bit coy with how long their first units would play on Monday night but there were hints each team’s starters would play into the second quarter.

The press is talking about the matchup of Leinart and Titans starting QB Vince Young. This will only be the second time the two have faced off since their memorable Rose Bowl in 2005.

Young got the best of Leinart in that game and also in their only previous pro contest. Young led a late come-from-behind victory against the Kurt Warner-less Cards in Week 12 last season.

Fisher warns fans not to get too caught up in the QB battle between the old foes.

“You’d like to win at home, but I think everybody understands that our starters could score 14 points and not give up any, and then the backups come in and give up 17 and you lose,” Fisher told the Nashville City Paper. “We all understand what preseason is about.”

Weather

The forecast is calling for a clear night with a game-time temperature around 85 degrees and minimal winds.

Line Movement

Several books opened with a short line of Tennessee -2.5 while others went with -3. The line moved up to 3.5 and there are some shops out there dealing 4.

Meanwhile the total has stayed put at 37 throughout the week.

NFL Betting Preview

NFL Preseason Preview - Arizona (1-0) at Tennessee (0-1)

(Sports Network) - The Tennessee Titans and Arizona Cardinals will reprise their classic 2009 battle, albeit in lower-stakes fashion, when the clubs resume their preseason schedule at LP Field on Monday night.

The teams met in meaningful play in Week 12 of last season in Nashville, a game won by the Titans, 20-17, on a last-second touchdown pass from Vince Young to wide receiver Kenny Britt. Young, who threw for a career-high 387 yards in the win, led Tennessee on a momentous 18-play, 99-yard game-winning drive to lift the Titans.

Young's heroics overshadowed a strong effort from his 2006 draft-class mate Matt Leinart, who while starting in place of an injured Kurt Warner, completed 21-of-31 passes for 220 yards to get the Cardinals in position for the win.

Less than nine months later, following the retirement of Warner, Leinart has become the Cardinals' starter.

The former USC star played to mixed reviews in the preseason opener last week, completing 6-of-7 passes for 49 yards but also suffering two sacks and coughing up a fumble in the team's 19-16 win over the Houston Texans.

Would-be backup Derek Anderson wasn't much better, completing 13-of-22 passes for 88 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions.

Elsewhere in the bad news category for the Cardinals was the knee sprain suffered by star receiver Larry Fitzgerald, an injury that is expected to knock the Pro Bowler out for the remainder of the preseason.

Tennessee came up empty in its first preseason effort last week, dropping a 20-18 decision at the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday night.

Young completed 5-of-6 passes for 78 yards in the loss and also led a first- quarter touchdown drive, but was intercepted once during his brief action as well.

Young should play into the second quarter on Monday before yielding to backup Kerry Collins, who did not play against the Seahawks last week. Chris Simms relieved Young against the Hawks, but threw for just 24 yards on 7-of-13 passing with an interception, and did little to indicate he is capable of threatening Collins' backup status.

On the injury front for Tennessee, defensive end Derrick Morgan (calf), defensive tackle Tony Brown (knee) and linebacker David Thornton (shoulder) are all expected to miss Monday's contest.

The preseason series between the Cardinals and Titans is knotted, 2-2, with Arizona evening the series by virtue of a 27-17 home win in the last such meeting, prior to the 1999 campaign.

As mentioned, the teams last met in meaningful play in Week 12 of last season in Nashville, a game won by the Titans in 20-17 fashion.

Streaking And Slumping Starting Pitchers

Streaking

Tim Hudson (14-5, 2.15 ERA), Atlanta Braves

You’d think with Tim Hudson numbers he’d be getting more consideration for the National League Cy Young award. Here’s a guy who’s the clear No. 1 starter on a first place team and he’s only a year and change removed from major surgery.

Ubaldo Jimenez, Adam Wainwright and Roy Halladay have flasher strikeout totals but Hudson gets the job done. He keeps his pitches per inning way down thanks to a healthy dose of ground ball outs.

Atlanta is 6-0, and so is the under, in the righty’s last six starts. You want more numbers? Nine of his last 10 starts have been quality ones and he’s allowed one or less runs in five of his last six outings.

Livan Hernandez (8-8, 3.06 ERA), Washington Nationals

If you looked at his recent win-loss record, you might think Hernandez belongs in the slumping section. But we’re not going to penalize the soft-tossing righty because of a lack of run support.

The Cuban import has allowed two or fewer runs in six of his last seven outings and the under is 8-0 in his last eight trips to the bump.

Slumping

Francisco Liriano (11-7, 3.45 ERA), Minnesota Twins
This lefty is having the opposite luck as Hernandez. He isn’t pitching well but his teammates are bailing him out.

Liriano’s numbers aren’t pretty over his last three starts: 15 1/3 innings, nine earned runs and 12 walks. He’s carrying a 2.08 WHIP (walks + hits per inning) over the slump and he hasn’t pitched six innings or more in any of those three appearances.

John Lackey (11-7, 4.62 ERA), Boston Red Sox

No matter how John Lackey finishes, 2010 will be a forgettable year for the big-league ace. His first season in Boston has fallen way short of the lofty expectations Red Sox backers have for the former Halos hurler.

There was a stretch where he appeared to have turned things around but he’s gone back into a funk. He’s allowed five or more runs in three of his last four starts and the Sox are 1-3 during the cold streak.

Even more troubling - opposing hitters are batting .330 off him this month.

HOT LINES

Monday's Best MLB Bets

Cincinnati Reds at San Francisco Giants (-155, 7.5)

Reds manager Dusty Baker was rightfully offered a contract extension last week but hasn't yet announced if he will sign it. His players are weighing in with their play and voices.

The Reds have won eight of their last nine games and have scored 38 runs during the first six outings of their current West Coast road swing. It's their way of showing support for their skipper.

"Dusty has done a fantastic job this year in a lot of different ways," first baseman Joey Votto told reporters. "I know a lot of people give credit solely to the players. But we've seen the manager's hand on this winning season."

One of the things that makes Uncle Dusty so popular among his players is that they know he has their backs. One of the big advantages of his managerial style is that they return usually the favor.

One of his chief supporters is pitcher Edinson Volquez, who takes the hill tonight. The Reds have won five straight when Volquez takes the mound and the Giants will be seeing him for the first time.

It's hard to pass on the Big Red (Money-Making) Machine at this price.

Pick: Cincinnati Reds


New York Yankees at Toronto Blue Jays (-115, 9.5)

It's not often you find the Bronx Bombers listed as underdogs. But then again, it's not often - as in never - that you see Ivan Nova making the start for the Yankees.

The righthander has made just two relief appearances this season and allowed four hits in three innings of work. How the 23-year-old rookie handles his first start on the road is anyone's guess.

More predictable is counterpart Brandon Morrow, whose last home start saw him lose a no-hitter with only one out to go. The Blue Jays are 6-2 in his last eight starts.

The Jays aren't intimidated by the Yankees by virtue of their familiarity and are 4-3 against their AL East rival this season. Morrow won his last meeting with the Yankees, striking out nine in 5 1/3 innings.

The Jays are six games over .500 at home and might well be a playoff contender if they weren't in the toughest division in baseball. The Yankees suffer their first loss without A-Rod in the lineup.

Pick: Toronto Blue Jays

Bettors' Best Friend (BBF): Monday's Wagering Tips

Lines Off The Board

Twins at Rangers: Line and total are off pending the conclusion of the Twins' late game Sunday.

Lines To Keep An Eye On

Cardinals at Titans: Titans opened as a 3-point favorite but have moved to -4.

Braves at Rockies: Total opened at 8 but has climbed to 8.5 at most books.

Weather To Watch

Twins at Rangers: 30 percent chance of thunderstorms.

Braves at Rockies: 30 percent chance of thunderstorms. Wind blowing in from center field at 10 mph.

Astros at Phillies: 30 percent chance of thunderstorms.

Mariners at Red Sox: 80 percent chance of rain. Wind blowing in fron right/center field at 20 mph.

Who's Hot

Twins are 20-6 in their last 26.

Phillies are 14-5 in their last 19.

Reds are 8-1 in their last nine.

Who's Not

Royals are 3-13 in their last 16 on road.

Pirates are 2-12 in their last 14.

Cubs are 1-6 in their last seven.

Key Stat

12-0 - The New York Yankees' record in games played without All-Star third baseman Alex Rodriguez in the lineup. A-Rod was placed on the 15-day disabled list on Saturday with a strained calf muscle.

Injury That Shouldn't Be Overlooked

Detriot Tigers outfielder Magglio Ordonez probably will miss the rest of the season with his fractured right ankle, manager Jim Leyland said Saturday. Ordonez suffered the injury in late July and was expected to miss six to eight weeks, giving him an outside shot of returning in September. But Leyland said the break is more severe than initially believed and is vertical rather than horizontal. Ordonez batted .303 with 12 homers and 59 RBI prior to the injury.

Game Of The Day

Reds at Giants (-155, 7.5)

Notable Quotable

"The expectations on that side of town is higher, there's no question about it. I don't know if it's tougher or not because I never was on that side. But looking from far away, coming to the ballpark every day and how many years they've gone through [without winning a World Series], a lot of people talk about winning a championship, but it's a lot of losing years out there, a lot. That's frustrating. There's no doubt it's easier to come to this side of town and work."

White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen about the difference between.mananging on the southside of Chicago vs. the northside, where Cubs manager Lou Piniella retired on Sunday.

Tips And Notes

St. Louis Rams quarterback A.J. Feeley will have an MRI exam on his injured right thumb after he was hurt in Saturday night's game against the Cleveland Bowns. Feeley signed to a two-year contract in March and was competing with rookie and top overall draft pick Sam Bradford for the starting job. The Rams had hoped to bring Bradford around slowly but he may be forced to be the opening day starter if Feeley's thumb injury prevents him from gripping the ball.

The Seattle Seahawks are looking for a few good men up front after left tackle Russell Okung suffered a sprained ankle in Saturday's preseason game vs. the Green Bay Packers. The rookie was replacing retired All-Pro Walter Jones so the team hopes to get Okung back for the start of the regular season, especially since backup Ray Willis is out indefinitely after undergoing knee surgery. Third-string left tackle Mansfield Wrotto will start in Okung's absence.

Team USA is getting a serious wake-up call before the FIBA World Championships. The U.S. survived a serious scare from Spain on Sunday, holding on for an 86-85 victory after Kevin Durant scored a game-high 25 points and blocked a 3-point attempt at the buzzer. Spain led the Americans by as many as 13 points in the third quarter before rallying and also struggled Saturday against Lithuania before snappoing out of it in the second half for a 77-61 win. The U.S., a slight favorite to win the Worlds, faces one more friendly against Greece on Wednesday before opening the tournament on Saturday against Croatia.
