    I asked petro about bringing back vbookie. He said he'd have to look into the extensions available for xenforo. He never got back to me after that.

    I've actually been on other sites which had vcash. I always had the most, by a lot. Every site wound up discontinuing it.

    I've been entering my picks into a few contests this year.

    Apparently can't view the leaderboard when logged out, but I'm in 7th.

    I don't know what place I'm in. There are a lot of entries. I'm 18-12.


    Then of course there's the ESPN group we have for TGG. http://games.espn.go.com/nfl-pigskin-pickem/2014/en/group?groupID=13513

    Have you ever played for real money?

    Hard picks this week.

    So far the only thing I'm seeing, based on what's up already, is Buffalo over Minnesota at -4. Might take that spread

    for 5 or 6 years

    just got a message from one of the books I bet at that they do not want to take my action any longer. Another still lets me bet there, but stopped giving me bonuses about 2 years ago and limited me to tiny amounts on non-major sports (tennis, soccer, NASCAR, golf, props, etc.).

    I also usually enter my picks into Covers. http://contests.covers.com/Handicapping/topHandicappers.aspx

    I hit a bad streak lately. I was in first for almost the entire year.

    Thursday could be a good under bet if that rains holds up. Sounds like it's going to be nasty out there.

    Might take the Browns over the Jaguars at -6

    What are your 4 moneyline picks this weekend?

    Falco

    On my bookie, Browns are favored -5.5. Where do you see the -3?

    I edited it. I meant to write -6.

    Honestly I might just bet on college this weekend. I don't like the NFL lines at all!!

    Only other one I'm considering is Arizona over Oakland at -3.5.

    Problem is, Oakland seems to show up against good teams. Look what they did against San Diego last week

    Same here.

    I will just do moneyline and keep my parlays at 4 max.

    If you are into soccer there are 3 soccer games on Saturday where you can parlay. I expect Arsenal win against Hull, Man City win against Tottenham and Chelsea win against Crystal Palace. A nice 3 game parlay to bring fun to your Saturday morning.

    I am from Turkey and for us, soccer is like religion. But knowing soccer doesn't grant success in betting. If you are foreign to soccer, I say stay away. I already put 20 bucks on that soccer parlay. Payout not great but it makes watching soccer more fun on the weekends.

    You realize anything would make watching soccer more fun.

    Literally anything.

    To be honest Stokes, after hooking up with NFL, I started to find soccer more dull. But still love to watch it. Old habits die hard.

    Picked to the Cleveland spread. Browns at -6 against Jax.

    Should be money in the bank

    Jets are 10 point dogs. Any takers?

    I betted 10 bucks for straight Jets win. I think we will win. But if we lose, it will be by more than 10.

    One of my stupid bets for tonight.

    Pats winning the 3rd quarter by 3 points. I betted 180 bucks to win 189 bucks.
