ZEUS121996 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 You predicted pretty well in 06 I'm pulling for the Panthers Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted December 2, 2015 Author Share Posted December 2, 2015 06? I usually go with the favorites, missed the Pats- Broncos game, darn it! Damn Apple TV, no live shows. After losing to the Broncos on Sunday night, the Patriots have been ousted from the top spot, which now belongs to the 11-0 Panthers. It's the first time Carolina has been No. 1 in the history of these rankings. New England is now No. 2, followed by Denver, Arizona and Cincinnati. http://espn.go.com/nfl/powerrankings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted December 2, 2015 Author Share Posted December 2, 2015 Do you bet? I recently read Author and freelance writer Michael Konik’s “The Smart Money” book. He describes a team of weathermen, handicappers, computer guy, front man and manger who scam the Vegas casinos of millions. All that effort just to create a 60% edge over the house’s 2-5% take, in addition to the 50/50 odds. The biggest bets they were able to put down however, were the under bets. When the public bid UP the betting line for a popular team in a popular game OVER the initial line, then the Konik team bet heavily against the favorite. For example, if Patriots were favored over Denver by 7, but right before the game, the line moved to Pats by 14. Then the Konik team would take the Broncos. They bet the Pats score would be under 14. If so, the team won. If Pats lost, the team won. Usually doubled their money. Had a 60% chance of being right. https://www.amazon.com/review/create-review?ie=UTF8&asin=0743277147&channel=detail-glance&nodeID=283155&ref_=cm_cr_dp_wrt_summary&store=books# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted December 15, 2015 Author Share Posted December 15, 2015 what is a good web site to see the betting line? Does it change during the week? The Panthers systematically destroyed the Falcons and are now 13-0, but it still doesn’t feel like people are talking much about them. It’s weird. 2. Arizona Cardinals (Last week: 2): Arizona is good, but how good is it? At times the Cardinals looked dominant Thursday night against Minnesota, but they still struggled like hell to put that game away. They get Green Bay and Seattle in the final two weeks, so let’s revisit them after that, shall we? 3. New England Patriots (Last week: 4): I don’t know if Rob Gronkowski will ever win an MVP award, but it’s getting harder and harder to deny he’s not the most valuable football player in the league. 4. Denver Broncos (Last week: 3): Uh, so yeah, about Brock Osweiler and the Denver offense. In the two games since beating the Patriots, the Broncos have scored just one offensive touchdown. Not great!Read more at: http://nesn.com/2015/12/nfl-week-15-power-rankings-russell-wilson-seahawks-making-late-charge/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Now is when football is great – must win games! I never understood rooting for the home team just because they are the home team, unless my friends were playing. Otherwise, I am enamored with the near end of career for the world’s greatest living quarterback, Peyton Manning, so therefore I was a Colts fan and now follow the Broncos. Belicheck and Brady just have too many scandals for me to follow them blindly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimer Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 No one I'm in love with enough to follow the broncos about that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I'm a Manning fan, but not a Broncos fan. I do respect what he's accomplished, on and off the field. His name is all over the record books. Now that he's there, I hope they win, unless they're playing the Colts. I'm probably more of an Andrew Luck (Colts) fan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 "Money did not mean that much to me. I had fun playing football.” There's a quote from one possibility. Lot's of people said similar things about Armstrong in cycling Ceptorman, until... Of course the whole story hasn't come out yet, will it ever?
