Super Bowl Thread... (It's kind of a big deal)

0% chance that they would have gone for 2 to cover.. I hope that wasn't a serious question.

No not really a serious question. But in 1998 the Pats beat the Bills with a TD as time expired, the Bills left the field, and the Pats just walked in a 2PC. That's the only scenario in which I could really see it happening.

It would have been very interesting to see if the refs would have been able to restore order after the Hail Mary to get the kick off. That XP would be as meaningful as the 2PC.

Post-safety is referred to as a "free kick" and, imo, should not count as kickoff. You are allowed to punt from the 20 as your free-kick if you choose.

Ha, I remember that.

In a regular season game (like Jackson's walk-off punt return last year) its probably way easier to gain control. But in the Super Bowl, you'd have teams on the field, media on the field, fans on the field, confetti raining, and so much other stuff going on that I'd be shocked if they did kick the XP.

Serious life tilt to bettors tho lol.

Good season everyone. Catch you all next year!

-Billichick is a genius when playing opponents twice in the same season. similar to what he did to the broncos in the second meeting. I think he will come up with something to slow down the giants offense and outcoach tom coughlin here.
-A friend of mine is close to the patriots team and hangs around the pats facility and tells me that the team is really fired up and wants to really win the superbowl in memory of Myra kraft. (Not sure if that changes anything but I'll consider it another +)

Should be a great game

With such enlightened analysis it is no surprise you are able to charge for your picks. I also loved your biggest playoff bet analysis on SF over NYG and the over on Balt/NE.. Meanwhile I posted this on 1/18:

"NYG are a much better, balanced team than Baltimore at this point in the season. They have gotten healthier and have a tremendous pass rush. Rodgers did have his worst QB rating game of the season against NYG. If you noticed, Brady also had HIS worst passing performance of the season over 2 months ago against none other than NYG. Piere Paul and Umenyiora and even Tuck, Canty, and Kiwanuka make this the best pass rush in the league. These guys are younger and slightly faster than Balt D"



And this on 1/20: Re: NFL Conference Championship Weekend

They also have Eli and two top recievers, number 1's on alot of teams, Nicks and Cruz. Their pass rush D is tenacious with several Pro Bowlers, no coincidence that both Brady and Rodgers has their worst games of the entire year when they played NYG. Proven coaching, their D coordinator, Perry Fewell will get coaching offers, and Coughlin is a hard ass, but a super bowl winner. They are as balanced as anyone and peaking at the right time. "



So tell me sir, with your fairly simplistic and ultimately wrong analysis on big games, how are you able to sell your picks? What is the secret of your salesmanship?

lol , you really have a grudge against me or something. I do not even want to respond to you because I do not want to anger microbob but I guess I have to when your making stupid statements.
I already told you I bet NFL on a lower scale and all games you mentioned were very close and could have gone either way. not to mention that you agreed with my analysis on the Over in the baltimore/NE game so I guess you may have tailed me and lost which is why you are so angry.
I have only focused on college football over the years and my followers know College football is my best game. You are free to look over my old college thread and read my analysis.

also to add
Initially, everyone thought you were a troll on here and people wanted you banned but I guess you have been trying to fit in lately by trying to gain respect for ripping on touts. But I'm in no way trying to advertise my name on here nor do I wanna be known as a tout, All I'm doing is trying to be part of the community and generate discussions. The fact that you have taken it upon yourself to keep trolling me is pretty amusing.

You do realize you can access picks from some of the top handicappers in the world for free using the internet? Although some of these guys charge alot of money, and have documented winning records and awards over many years, you can circumvent ever paying a tout. I play a guy who has won over 70% in the past 2 months of NCAAB and 15 of his last 16 games. Although he charges and has lots of clients it takes 15 seconds a day for me to get his picks and cost me no money.

Early,
JFC, knock it off. This thread is not about sharky, your views on him, or your views on touts. The topic of the thread is clearly spelled out for you in the subject line.
