felixis99: right about what? we don't mind if you're right, but don't know what you're right about??Oh & the Tickle thread is Lee's - I meant I just threw the nmae out there so you could find where we were saying we missed ya!
i was right about the Colts beating the undeserving Jets !!!!
I'm taking the Cardinals over the Saints and the Ravens over the Colts in tonight's games. Gotta go with the Vikings over the Cowboys tomorrow and the Chargers over the Jets.
Thoughts and analysis?
just caught up with this.....I hope you didn't put money on those forecasts Stress!!!

Oh no, no wagers this post season. I got beat up on a couple of supposed "locks" towards the end of the year, so I had to shut down the wagering It was a tricky year
The Colts are a great football team. They took over the second half of the game on both sides of the ball. The Jets played great in the first half, but that quick TD for the Colts right before half gave the Colts momentum going into the half. Manning was brilliant in the second half and he had the number one defense on their heels. The Colts played sound defense and this is the best Colts defense I have ever seen. Seriously, this is Manning's best Colts team I have to say. Too bad they didn't go for a perfect season. I hope they lose to the Saints, but I don't see that happening.
The Vikings defense kept them in the game despite registering 5 TURNOVERS and they still had a chance to win it in the end, but Favre threw that costly interception and the game went into overtime. It was a great game that could have went either way.
The Colts covered the spread btw, and the Vikings beat the spread. Both favored teams won. I'm guessing the spread will open up at -6.5 for the Colts.
StressFree: You still could have won on the Saints if say you bet on the moneyline. I think the vigorish was like -150...not to bad had the Vikings won.
Knowing me, I would have teased both the scores and the over/under...and still would have lost because of the Colts pulling away in the second half.
well im glad i didnt bet.... cos all you said just confused the living crap out of me...... !!!!
whatever happened to betting on a winner straight up ???????

That carries more risks if you bet on a heavy favorite straight up (moneyline) and lose. Like in some games, you have to risk 700 dollars or even more just to win 100 bucks. And there were a lot of upsets this year. So a lot of people lost a lot of cash on those supposed locks. If you have balls to bet on the underdog, and if the underdog wins---then you can make a handsome profit. You have to really know your football and the stats and trends etc...
Betting on the spreadline is much safer. There is a lot more to this It's a science with wagering, and some luck. Baseball is much easier
