NFL Action: Week 3

Post by Sylvus »

Same as last week. Post what the line is along with your bet, and make sure it's in bold. House takes 10% of wins. 110 wins you 100, 1100 wins you 1000 and so on.

You may have to move the over/under on the Eagles/Lions game to 45 sylvus! Heavy VVs being placed on the over side! : )

BTW, you can bet too sylvus. It doesn't matter that you're the bookie as well!

Eh, betting isn't as much fun when I can just create the currency out of the ether.

I wish I could do that with actual US currency.

ASU blew out Iowa 44-7. This should be an easy pick for you!

I do not bet on Michigan. Them winning is payment enough, I don't want the gambling gods to curse me.

That said, if I were a betting man, I think I'd take the under.

220 Ravens to win
When I was younger, I used to think that the world was doing it to me and that the world owes me some thing…When you're a teeny bopper, that's what you think. I'm 40 now, I don't think that anymore, because I found out it doesn't f--king work. One has to go through that. For the people who even bother to go through that, most assholes just accept what it is anyway and get on with it." - John Lennon

Holy shit! I can't believe anyone was crazy enough to take the under on the "no defense Bowl"!! You should take the under of the Colts play the Chiefs too.....the over/under on that should be 84.

2 wins, 1 loss, one push (no action)

That Steelers/Dolphins game was fun to watch last night during the torrential rains the first half. The dirt infield part of the field looked like a pond.

I'll be paying bets when I have time. For sure before the betting opens up for week 4.

Yep, they needed to score an additional 8 points in order to cover. Don't forget the spread!

Sorry there was no week 4 action, I just didn't have time to put it together. I also forgot to make my NCAA picks this week, which makes me very TT. I was doing so well!

Perhaps I should hire an assistant to write up the lines for me.

Undefeated Arizona State (5-0) has a bye week next week so take your time on the NCAA picks! : )

hmmm lets see...unranked ASU beats #17 Northwestern at NW...NW beats #6 OSU...ASU ranked 22nd....no respect!

At least we get to play #1 USC two weeks from now. Go Devils! They handled Oregon pretty easily up in Oregon this week.
