    What'd you place a live win bet on? Rams ML? What'd you get it at?

    I guess the libs out there are too righteous to legalize sports gambling.

    They can't even solve the homeless problem... which legal betting could solve if it was earmarked as such.

    @Jonathan_Vilma and @Acad23 turning this into a secret politics section haha.

    @IDFjet @Brook!

    I'm leaning towards Cincy -17.5 first half tonight. Gonna watch the weather and also if Temples two Wrs are playing. But I don't want to wait long because that line is only going to move one way.

    Acad alone isn't dangerious. The minute he mixes with barfalomew, explosions happen. This thread belongs to a small crowd anyway. Little politics is OK :)

    That said, can't get into college sports really but tomorrow there is no soccer and I will have to watch college football.

    I need 3 strong games for me to parlay on my $10 ticket to make Saturday interesting.

    @Jonathan_Vilma - Chime in here and make my Saturday interesting please. Please try to stay in Top 25 only for my easy access and potential TV chance :)

    I'm interested in that game too--watched Temple last week at home make a nice comeback. The head coach takes a lot of chances like 4th and 2 on his own side of field and passes up FG's against the book imo.

    He can get down big early with this kind of aggressiveness so I think the first half idea is a good one. I'll probably wait to see who gets the ball first. If cinci, bet it. If Temple, wait. That's my thought.

    As I perceived it is was a 1-way nuclear explosion with one person irradiated to ash.

    We'll each give a couple. I'm on Iowa ML whatever you can get it at. I also like Ole Miss laying the points but I wanna see that get back under 5 to where it started.

    @IDFjet @Lon Chaney @Acad23 @BrowningNagle - you guys got anything?

    My son hit on this parlay a few weeks ago. Bet $50 and won $1511. What an incredible bet. And he hasn't pissed it all away yet![​IMG]

    That's even more sick because SMU won on that wild deflected Hail Mary against Louisiana Tech right?

    I don't feel real good about anything pre-game but I've put bets down on 'bama at halftime and Florida -10.5 in 1st quarter.

    Your boy Bo Nix is getting 15 at home.

    I also think one of these days either or both of these teams are going to explode with offense (WVU/Baylor) so that 44 O/U is juicy looking. I might look at WVU's team total as I think they're more stable at QB and Ledi Brown (RB - WVU) is probably the best player on either team.

    By the time he told me about the bet he just needed Arkansas to win, so I never watched the other games. I wish he had told me about the bet before the games because $50 to win $1500 is something I'd be all over.

    Haven't looked at Saturday yet. Won't until tomorrow morning.

    I'm going to lay the 17.5 first half tonight.

    Risk 220/200

    I had Arkansas of those three and unfortunately lost the other two games. Damn get your son's tips for this week's parlay.

    I may play it too. Home Friday Night Football after a huge win should have them juiced.

    Edit: backing out - looks like it could be wet conditions. This could be a good over play though. 53 is low when Cincy should score 40. @Lon Chaney - not sure if you're in but check the weather.
