Your crevice, shut it.

You post like he wanted to break his collarbone. He was the victim of a viciously vociferous late hit.

it didn't affect me that much financially but can anyone honestly explain that call that turned a Jets TD or worse case out of bounds into a NE possession? One of the most blatant rigged calls I've ever seen in any sport ever.

Add to that list DEN never having a chance in this game, holding Zeke and a Cowboys O line to next to nothing yards wise while giving up tons of yds to a Giants team that has a nonexistent run game, until now.

Is it a coincidence that such a vast majority of the money was on the DEN spread? Also as far as every possible statistical category at least pointing for DEN in matchups, after bye stats etc. Upset of the century, reminds me of Casino, it's all been arraigned just for us to lose our money.

Yes, the multi billion dollar league is rigging results to cater to sports books with 6 figure handles.

Caesars as a whole is worth less than the Cowboys. The entirety of Vegas took as many bets in 2016 as the Cowboys are worth.

Seems legit.

You guys must be joking right? And I thought I'm still new to this. If there are odds, books make money. No one works for free. In fact, business is so good that next week football lines always come up on Sunday night, and noon time for daily sports like nba, mlb and nhl. Books don't just make a killing over one weekend, books make a killing every God damn day. All major sport events that have odds are rigged. That's why I rarely watch anything except maybe women college volleyball lol

NE/Tom Brady has notoriously been favored in calls by officials. No idea why the refs have that kind of bias. As for the Jets TD, there was absolutely no justification / concrete evidence in overturning that TD.

This is why I hate it when Boston fans complain about ANYTHING.

What am I missing on this line? IND +7 when they've beat the Titans SU 11 times in a row. Yes Luck is out and most of those wins were w/Luck. Colts have been somewhat of a dumpster fire on wheels, but Jacoby has been competent. Yes, Mariota is back but might not even be at 100% and generally speaking Titans are pretty bad in divisional games even with Mariota at 100%.

IND +7 just seems too easy, what am I missing?

The Jets call was pretty clearly correct. The only question is whether its "indisputable" video evidence. The call for it originally was abhorrent.

so much for all my GB futures plays this pre-season. time to light those tickets on fire.

as for the game tonight, I'm betting Marcus plays (as of a few minutes ago it was questionable.) Titans play up on this one, I dont know if I'd lay the points but beating Indy because of the consecutive losses to them on a primetime MNF game is a priority. Look for Titans to come out strong (full disclosure, Titans homer here.)

r u ****** kidding me?

I even bought the half point so I have IND +7.5, it's 22-29 with less then a min left, IND has no time outs left even on a 3rd and 5 all TEN has to do is run it and Colts end up giving up a meaningless TD AGAIN ON THE LAST ****ING play essentially of the game. Redskins +7 last play TD to not cover MNF nightmares all over again. 2 times in 3 weeks, I am ***** done with MNF betting. Single pointless play costs me 560 in potential winnings, AGAIN.

Got fat feelings that Kansas city chiefs are good @-3 team got it running, catch , quarter back, offence line and the best and play good on the road

Seems like they just had a little run bad and could of easily beat spread against Pittsburgh

Like them a lot more on the moneyline as should be close, I already blacked them on the spread, but would advise my posse to bet the moneyline, I have gone 235 win 122 lost and am up 700 units

Only problem with my records is they are made up.......

Yeah rigging is entirely impossible. Too many moving parts.

I think it's just safe to say that the best sport in America is also the toughest to bet against. I'm still mediocre/breakeven at props (due to desire for action most likely so I don't trim the fat enough), but I feel like early season there are a lot of bad/soft player prop lines. Just hard for anyone that does this for a living to get a lot of money down. Not a problem I have since I bet so casually.
