Pick you stone cold lock

Esquared1 · 09-05-2005, 05:54 PM

What up all,

Everybody loves gambling!

I'm going to Vegas for bachelor party part II. Just glancing at the lines, I think these are my nine favorites. Which one of these would you consider a stone cold lock?

there's nothing else in your post esquared. you forgot to post your 9 favorites...

A word of caution, Week 1 nothing is ever a lock.

Sorry, yo, I was typing and playing poker.

Best line in vegas: anything that gets you a chick.

Whats up with that Car NO line? The line is def. telling us something. Doesn't everyone naturally think that Car will win straight up?

Trap game.

If Washington doesn't annihilate Chicago, I have no reason to watch much football this year.

Esquared1 · 09-06-2005, 10:33 AM

Oops! That should be Car -6.5 over NO. No wonder that looked so good!

Prepare for a long and dissapointing season Franklin.

I kind of like the under in the Pit/Ten game. I also like the over in the bears skins game(33!) with the skins winning in a blowout. Here's too a great season Franklinnoble.

edit: I think there might be some value in the over of the GB/Det game(46) as well.

I have found in the many years of gambling, especially in week 1 of the NFL, the lines that most don't think will cover actually do cover. Its too early for oddsmakers to gauge and there are very little statistics/trends to go off of, IMHO.

I agree with you. On the other hand, I'm not going to Vegas for the shopping though!

Bumpy.

I like the over in the Jets game. Both teams should be able to move the ball fairly well.

PackerFanatic · 09-07-2005, 01:51 PM

I took the under in the Pitt/Tenn game. Neither team has a truly explosive offense and Pitt has a decent defense that should hold this game down.
