New England Patriots -12½ -105
Rumor has it that the Giants will be resting players in the 2nd. The Pats historically let their starters play. The Pats are also going for a record tonight, and I expect them to get it.

Atlanta Falcons -107
Believe it or not, the Falcons have value in this game. Seattle is locked into the 3rd seed, so like the Giants, they have nothing to play for and should be resting players.

Kansas City Chiefs +6½ -110
No one should be getting 6+ pts vs the Jets.

Miami Dolphins +2½ -110
Miami at home vs a team they can beat. They should be motivated and playing for their jobs.

Cincinnati Bengals/Miami Dolphins UNDER 45 -110
The once potent Cincinnati offense has failed to score 20 points in four consecutive games.

That is all for now. I'm leaving town today for Atlantic City. I'll be there through New Years, so this might be my last post of 2007.

Good Luck and Happy New Year!

Another ugly week last week, leaving me up a little less than half a unit in football so far this year. I did cash the boxing ticket though...

Updated 2007 Football Record:
NFL sides: 29-26-3, +0.34 units
NFL totals: 11-12-1, -1.05 units
College: 12-12-1, +1.14 units

The favorites in the NFL have been running real well the last couple of weeks. The public has been real hot, and this has left a lot of opportunity to bet some juicy dogs this week.

That said, get ready to hold your nose this week. I'm betting more games than usual and hitting a few games hard. I usually don't like this much action on a single weekend, but I have to bet opportunities as they present themselves.

San Francisco 49ers +9-110 (2 units)
This big home dog is getting no love.

Atlanta Falcons +13.5 -110 (2 units)
The Falcons move on this week without Vick who is serving 23 months. Their season is done, but they'll still try to spoil this division rival. I'll take 2 TDs against the defensively oriented Bucs.

Other dogs I'm on this week (all to win 1 unit):
Miami Dolphins +4½ -115
St Louis Rams +10 -110
Carolina Panthers +8 -110
Kansas City Chiefs +4 -110
Oakland Raiders +11 -110
Washington Redskins +5 -105

All that action and I haven't even looked at the totals yet... I think I might be passing on those this week.

Being that it's the holidays and my schedule this week is ridiculous, I'm not sure if I'll post again before Sunday. That said, this Sunday is the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, and those crazy Ron Paul supporters are putting together another "money bomb" for him on Sunday. Ron Paul is the most pro online gambling presidental candidate in the 2008 race, and that's why I'm writing about him. You can check out this fund raiser at Tea Party 07.

Good Luck this week sports betting people.

1-1 yesterday...

Added Plays:
Green Bay Packers -5 -110
Farve @ home is too much for the Vikings poor secondary.

Tennessee Titans -4½ -110
The Jags are on their third straight road game, and the Titans defense is stacked.

Already on:
Arizona Cardinals -1 -110
Oakland Raiders +4 -110
St Louis Rams/New Orleans Saints OVER 46 -110
St Louis Rams +11½ -110
Miami Dolphins +3 +100

Good Luck today.

hold you nose for these 2...

St Louis Rams +11½ -110
Miami Dolphins +3 +100

I have to thank a friend for turning me on to this. Winless teams of 0-4 or worse coming off a bye are 17-3 ATS since 1990.

Obviously the public is against both these teams. The Ram's line looks high. I think it should be about +9. The Miami line looks about right. I can't move on it one way of the other, but the public is on them 80%. I'll roll the dice on these two dogs...

Already on:
Arizona Cardinals -1 -110
Oakland Raiders +4 -110
St Louis Rams/New Orleans Saints OVER 46 -110

Good Luck this week!

Adding three live homedogs to card. And this is it. FINAL.
Carolina Panthers +7 -110
San Francisco 49ers +2½ -110
St Louis Rams +3 -115

The only home dog I'm not betting this week is Cincy. This game looks ugly, and I'm showing value on the Steelers. Not enough for a bet, but enough to keep me off the Bengals.

Previous Bets:
Miami Dolphins +10 -110
New York Giants/Miami Dolphins UNDER 48 -110
New Orleans Saints/San Francisco 49ers UNDER 40 -110
Green Bay Packers +3 +100

Updated 2007 Football Record:
NFL sides: 13-9-1, +4.05 units
NFL totals: 7-5-1, +2.65 units
College: 9-6, +3.35 units

Good Luck.

I don't know much about cigars, but I just smoked a La Aurora and it was great.

It was a good day in college plays, 3-1 up 2.9 units thanks to the 2 unit bet on UConn...

New York Giants/Miami Dolphins UNDER 48 -110
I'm already on Miami for this game. I really don't like betting both a total and side on the same game, BUT there is value in this line and the weather in London doesn't look too nice.

If anyone is looking for a good sportsbook, poker room or online casino, I have to recommend BoDog. This site is one of the best online. I feel that my money is completely safe with them, they have great customer service, and they have committed themselves to the US market. If you haven't already, you should check them out --> BoDog Link


I'll probably be back with more tomorrow.

Good Luck as always.

Green Bay Packers +3 +100
A Monday Night Football bet on Wednesday? Yeah, I really think the wrong team is favored here. Give me the points, and I have to take the Packers.

New Orleans Saints/San Francisco 49ers UNDER 40 -110
Rolling with the under on the Saints for the 2nd week in a row. This team has started to show improvement, but still isn't the offensive powerhouse it was last year. San Fran has also lost a step this year, and even if Alex Smith starts this week, I don't see them putting up many points.

Already on:
Miami Dolphins +10 -110

Good Luck

Miami Dolphins +10 -110
If this game was in the States, I would probably be on the Giants with everyone else. But no, this game is across the pond, and I can't see the NFL sending 2 teams to London just for 1 to get an ass whooping. I also expect the first regular season game ever in Europe to be an exciting, close affair since the NFL is trying to improve it's oversees viewership. If the American Football Gods are watching, this game will come down to the final drive.

The public is heavy on the Giants (93%), and Miami has to win a game sometime... right?

Good Luck.
