......and rules. Rules >>> We can bet on either pro or college (or mix it up). With the line and/or totals betting. (that means the over/unders). Starting bets CAN be on 8/30. DEADLINE for stating if you are in or not is 9/5. The last bet is no later than 12/28. No pre-season or post season bets. This means bowl games/playoffs. 25 bets MUST be made. No less and NO MORE than 25. You can bet spreading it out or near the end of the season, whatever but *25* exactly. No vig, no dollar units. Just the BEST of 25. For example you might finish 15-10 OR 11-13-1. Try and place bet(s) kind of early. Not 5 minutes before kickoff. You can drop a bet (due to injury etc) but again, try and do it somewhat early. Lines will ONLY come from >> nolinks://nolinks.vegasinsider.com/ (nolinks://nolinks.vegasinsider.com/) ((look under LV Hilton ONLY)) This is for fun of course. Ken
Again, my play for today is >>> Virginia Tech -9.5 (vs East Carolina) Ken
lol, I keep thinking about more what if's. The line at the time you post is FINAL. I dont care how much that line changes, its your line. If you want to drop that game, NO PROBLEM but no re-betting on it after that. Ken
Sorry for posting old match, I just copied wrong one from notepad lol.
I am with Atlanta on start of season, but will wait to post my pick, since line will go up (everyone is betting on Detroit), so I'll post around 6th.

Well.....I started out 0-1. :( Ken
My picks for this weekend (Sept 07, 2008) - All odds from LV Hilton on vegasinsider.com (took me a while to find it though!)
Cincinnati Bengals -1.5 (vs. Baltimore)
NYJets -3.0 (vs. Miami)
(Sept 08, 2008)
Minnesota Vikings +3.0 (vs. Green Bay)
Cheers,
Matt
Thanks Matt and good point. For example >>> lets say you need lines for the NFL. Locate NFL.....scroll down until you see "Vegas Odds", click that. Locate LV Hilton, BAM, you are there. Good luck Matt, I hope you kick ass. Ken
Thanks Ken!
My 2 picks on Sunday are smarter picks... the Vikings on Monday is more of a sentimental pick... I hate GB and love the Vikes! But if their QB plays half decent, they can win.
Good luck to you too! Nice post in the Pit... Kinda what I was trying to get at when Greg first started posting.
MM
Okay....you two are set! I'm taking the weekend off, maybe. We'll see if Greg or anyone else wants in? Deadline is Friday at some point. :-X Ken
Detroit - Atlanta +3
I hope Atlanta covers :D
Cheers
Thanks Toothpaste. You worded it perfect. "covers". Good luck to you buddy!!! Ken
Greg emailed me, these are his picks. A reminder to all: this little contest is only for fun. Gregs picks have NOTHING to do with his systems >>> Tenn +3, Buffalo -1, Phily -7.5, Arizona -3 & Chicago +9.5
ANYONE else care to play???? 8) 8) 8) A few hours left to decide.
Thank you for posting my picks for me. Wish everyone the best of luck this weekend.
So the 5 of us, sounds cool. I'll bet TWO games for Sat. >>> Oklahoma -21.5 (vs Cincinnati) and Georgia -24 (vs Central Michigan). Ken
I'm now 2-1 ;D I'm putting in a bet for Sunday. I'll take the Jets -3 (vs Miami). NOW, 21 bets left to go. Ken
@iamian -- Dont forget....all you have left is 12 bets for the entire season. Ken
Hi Ken,
I know, I know, I hope I will have a good day today.
I see you winning every game today sir !! :) Ken
Hello Everyone,
Good and fun way to start for me 5-0
The totals so far --- iamian: 8-5 record, with 32 bets left.

Matt: 1-2 record, with 42 bets left.
Toothpaste: 1-0 record, with 44 bets left. GOOD LUCK TO ALL :)
QUESTION >>> I think 25 bets is going to go damn fast. Maybe too fast? Anyone want to increase it? I dont know, 35 bets?? 40 bets?? Answer soon please. Whatever the majority says, we'll do. Everyone has started out pretty good!! Ken
Hi Ken,
I would be happy with 50 bets . 8)
50 sounds fine.
I need to get back into the game... :)
MM
Hello Everyone,

Beglas -1.5 (vs. Titans)

@Toothpaste -- You taking the weekend off? Lots of time left, no hurry. @All -- I see two different spreads posted from two betters here for the Jets game taken from the SAME day (Sept 10th). Maybe the line changed on that day. Lets all remember >>> nolinks://nolinks.vegasinsider.com/ (nolinks://nolinks.vegasinsider.com/) (and then under LV Hilton). I'm acting all serious, like this is for a million dollars. lol GOOD LUCK to everyone!!!! Ken

BTW
where is the superman Gregg? and his best system in the universe ? and his 100 step progression ? ;D
Who, coach? I told him straight bets (no progression) and he bolted. Let me see him or any of us have a decent record AFTER 45 bets. He cant do it and he knows it. 30-15 would be impressive. Ken
Hello Everyone,
I'm still around, just been real busy. My NCAAF is 75-3 if you would like to know and that's only a 2 step progression. I told all you that I was working on a new system for this year and next yr.
My pick For Monday night is San Fran to cover +9.5,, since I have been so busy, I'll start posting picks for all you. Just for fun, so don't follow my picks.
Take Care,
Coach Thompson
