20 dimer - east carolina pirates....10 dimer - cleveland cavs 20 dimer - east carolina pirates
much prefer to lay the highway lumber here, as even though the pirates are a dismal 1-8 their last 9 as a road favorite, they do own memphis, and that is a fact.
East carolina is 12-1 against the spread the last 13 series meetings, and that includes 7 straight covers, with 3 straight up wins in a row.
Skip holtz' team has virginia tech up next, and at 4-3, a loss here would not be good for their bowl hopes, so expect the pirates to handle their business on the road against a foe they have dominated.
Memphis is just 2-5 straight up, and and 1-5 against the spread in their lined games this season.
I don't see it happening for tommy west's team tonight, i just don't!
Take east carolina minus the points.
10 dimer - cleveland cavaliers
why not?
Battle of eastern conference titans, and each team made a big move in the off-season, as boston picked up rasheed wallace, while cleveland got the big diesel.
Just hard to go against a cleveland team that went 45-3 last season at home, while going 32-16 against the spread. Those are some solid money-making numbers for shit sure.
Including the playoffs, cleveland has won 5 of the last 9 against boston straight up, and they have covered in 8 of those 9.
Kevin garnett is back and healthy for boston, and that is certainly good for both the celtics, and the league, but tonight is all about lebron and shaq, and an opening night win and cover.
Take the cavs minus the points.

Frank Patron 2-8 L10
the part that REALLY bothers me is his new tendency to use 30.000 50.000 and 100.000 plays (1-2 on those most recently by the way).
if a guy is betting 10.000 and 20.000 plays, i can see merit (some semblance of credibility) in a 30.000 play but 50.000 and 100.000 screams desperation, and if you are going to make a play for anything over your normal pattern (10.000/20.000) if better be decisive. florida state won (BARELY), and the other two lost.
in addition, frank is making what appear to be very stupid plays. why make a pick on the MIN/PIT game? there were more than a few 28+ point winners Sunday. why take the hardest game on the board and subject yourself to the breaks?
last night was absolutely fucking stupid. betting on WAS was about as bad a play as i could imagine. the play was PHL or no play at all. i wasn't able to get my head around a bad team laying more than a touchdown on the road, so i put PHL in some teasers with open plays to use later - all winners. never did it cross my mind to bet on the worst team (one of the worst teams) in the NFL.
what's wrong with Frank?
guys, we need to grab this, pregame is doing a special for spartan, for those of you who dont know who spartan is, sorry for ya.... but right now, until staurday, you can get three weeks of his plays for only $149, but if you buy $100 pregame dollars, you get $50 free. so threee weeks of Spartan for only $99!!!! we need to get this.... whos in, i have money right now to throw in someones paypal account....
I am on my lunch break and since this post is up , I thought I would get it out there. As usual lefty is the 1st one with plays up so here we go. If Randy or John post anything I will see to it that it makes its way out here after I get out of work.

2* E.Carolina over memphis
In this matchup we will take an improving ECU squad over an opponent it has dominated in the past. ECU has 3 wins in it last 4 games with its' only loss coming by a late score at a pretty good SMU team. ECU has covered 7 in a row, 4 of the last 5 in Memphis, and 11 of the last 12 overall vs the Tigers. The pirates are 4-3 but on of those wins come from sub division appalacian st so they will need 3 more wins out of their remainin 5 games to become bowl eligible. With the next 2 games being Tulsa and Va tech(prob losses), this game probably decides their bowl fate. Expect a max effort from ECU tonight. Memphis struggles on defense(29.8 PPG) and this has been the main reason for their struggles this season. 1 of their 2 wins comes from sub division tenn-martin. With the news of QB smith transferring to start the season and the back up Bass getting hurt the QB duties fall on the shoulder of 5th yr senior Hudgens , who has been a 50% passer throughout his career. I am not sure they can put up enough points to stay in this game. Look for ECU to continue their dominance over Memphis tonight with a touchdown plus win. Also if you are looking for more to play tonight I have my 4**** game of the month going. These 3 and 4* games are on a sweet 10-2 run.
good luck,
Lefty
let's cash tonight!!
