The King presents Arena Football the Season

KingdomCome · Jun 21, 2008

Don't ask me why I like to play with fire but I might take a beating or double up on my total bet or come up up a dime minus juice. If it wasn't for Coach Kay running the ball 85 times on one drive, Nagy throwing a pick, Columbus getting stopped on 4th down, there would be 63-70 points on the board. Good news is Raymond Philyaw looks unstoppable. Cleveland will go up by 2 scores in this one and eventually even though recently he has been coaching terribly, coach Kay will have to go for a few onside kicks. I like this 2nd half to be high scoring.

Official Play:

Cle/Colum 2nd half Over 55 ($2200 to win $2000)

Someone please tell me if this is incorrect:

Georgia has nothing to play for

San Jose is playing for possible home field

Arizona has nothing to play for

Utah will have nothing to play for if Grand Rapids win

Yes you are correct. However Arizona can go from 8-8 to 9-7 so I can promise you they will be firing on all cylinders if you ask me. Utah's defense is herrendous as well. San Jose should romp Georgia but the Force are playing for momentum. Not sure that is enough to take them over the top and beat SJ who is battling for the #2 seed.

With that being said I am going to add a teaser at even money into the mix as this is the last week of the season.

Official Play:

SJ pick Over Georgia & Arizona +11 Over Utah ($2000 to win $2000)

Utah DOES have something to play for. If they win they're in. If they lose, THEY'RE OUT.

AFLGuru · Jun 21, 2008

To add to that...

New York is playing basically for their playoff lives tomorrow (even though they're already in).

If they win, they host Cleveland in R1 of the playoffs. If they lose they go to Dallas. BIG difference.

Chicago will be playing for the 1 seed if San Jose beats Georgia. Dallas won't really know if their game is important until after the Philly game is over.

With a Utah win, they're IN. With a Utah loss, they're OUT and LA is in.

I am going to throw up from a pick 6 on the last play of the game. That is gonna cost me a few grand. I really hope Georgia pulls off the upset so I won't be that sick. I need to go to sleep after the last play of the game and my offense has the ball, the other team's defense scores to screw me over. :shocked: I am so sick to my stomach right now.

hang in there kc.you have really the helped alot of people out this year on afl and in the nfl as well.looking forward to cfl too.

the afl has killed me the last few weeks with all these teams like N.O. who are in a must win situation playing against teams with nothing to play for and losing.I am really worn out with the last few weeks with the afl but I am looking forward to the playoffs

I don't know if you cap tennis kc but wimbledon starts tomorrow and its a great way to make some money.I usually use a few sites to cap and they have some good guys on there,these first few rounds are usually when you can make some cash

thanks for everything this year kc.

cheers

I'm sorry KC, but this is HILARIOUS. You can make a gripe about just about any AFL game going over the total if you use this as your basis. Unders are destroyed on long drives. Nobody runs more long drives than Columbus does. It's the nature of the beast when you bet Columbus overs. You WILL get burned by one of these a game with them, and you just know it. You never had a shot at the onside kick game, and that's what the murderer was.

But you can't really say that if Columbus had gotten AWAY from their gameplan, and if both QBs didn't turn the ball over, there would have been 70 pts on the board.

That's like saying in a Cleveland Cavaliers game if LeBron James didn't go 3/27 from the field that they would've won the game by 40 points!

Got to like Chicago 2nd half Vs Dallas with Philly smoking NY and the Rush are getting the ball.

Official Play:

Chicago -3 ($2200 to win $2000)

great call kc.I was watching the game and right before kick off they said dallas would probably rest clint.This is why being able to see the game is so important,a real problem sometimes waegering on the arena.
great job

cheers

Only play on the board I will hammer. I do like couple more but not enough to hammer. No write up just a clicking offense and a defense that has given up points recently.

Official Play:

Dallas/NY Over 101 $2750 to win $2500

Good luck with that. DAL won both regular season games with totals of 64 and 100. If the game is close, it will go over. But if DAL lays a whooping on them like PHL did last week, it may go under due to NY incompetence on offense, and NY lost Willis for the year last week.

I got CLE -2 -120 and somebody out there agreed with me.

Scott you can't take last game for NY into consideration, can you? They experimented with their QB's and did not take that game serious. Garcia came out after the first quarter after driving them for a score. Dallas should score at will and I think Aaron has enough in him to get 45-49 which I think will be enough to make the game go over. I guess only time can tell. I like Cleveland too at that number at home. Good luck to you.

I wouldn't say that they "experimented" with QBs... Garcia was just hurting, and god knows how "hurt" he really is. Fragile Aaron is one shot from NY getting blown the hell out.

Guru, that is the story of Garcia's life. Lol, we all know every start can be his last. After all this is his 40th year in the league.

I'm not taking NY's last game much into consideration. Garcia had a hand injury and a slight concussion and by the time he came out, it was over anyway. Had NY had to win to make the playoffs I think he stays in, but they knew they were in.

Still, as noted, Garcia can get breathed on and be hurt. We saw how effective Juston Wood can be. EIGHT players threw TD passes in the two games last Sunday. Guess who had 28 attempts and had NO TDs along with THREE PICKS? Chris Freakin' Jackson was 1 of 1 for a TD. Wood 16/28/0/3. If Garcia gets knocked out, the over is toast.

100% agree.

If I knew Garcia was going to get injured, I would lay everything I have on Dallas and then the farm on the under.

Well someone just bet DAL. Up to -7.5 at CRIS.

I certainly think DAL is the right side. They have the potential to win this one very easily. But they were coasting last game at home vs. DAL, up 38-14 one play into the third quarter and had to hang on to win by 2.

DAL just tends to lose focus at home, but not so much on the road. I would actually be more likely to back them on the road at GA the next week than this week.

Still, gotta think DAL wins this by double digits.

I am also leaning Dallas and looking at a juicy 6.5 at Greek still. I just think NY can battle but I really like Dallas winning this game. I could easily see Dallas up 13 with 26 seconds left and Garcia getting the back door cover so I will stay away. I want to see what the moneyline on this game is gonna be, I don't see Dallas losing the way their offense is playing of late, they should be able to score at will.
