Any Gambling/Sports Discussion At This Place?

Recommended Posts

Ha. Figured that you would throw that Browns flag up there. Reading on some webites that Pitt is headed to the Big Ten. Story has it that all athletes were informed this weeked. Could be BS though as no reports from local media.

Seem to like this place, but it would be nice to see a few sports related threads. Any discussion related to the Browns does not count since they can't be considered a professional franchise. Thanks.

 

Oh boy ... it's on!

 

I'm with you on Penn State, but I have too much respect for Brownie to follow you on the Browns comment. I'm cross state from you and I'm an Eagles fan. As the Steelers have quite a few more Super Bowl rings to the Eagles none, I don't have much to say. Sure did suck to fall to the Buckeyes like we did, but that's how it goes sometimes.

 

 

Best Wishes,

I would actually like to see Clevland have a decent team, some of the rowdiest games I have ever been to were Steelers/Browns when the Browns were good. Although, considering the last time they had back to back winning records was over 20 years ago, I am a bit older and having trouble remembering those days. smiley-rofl.gif

 

In regard to OSU, I would like to see Pryor become a top qb. I think he has the skills, but can't figure out if it's the system or his brain that is holding him back.

Browns - I think we are on the right track. We took a few guys from Thales' Philly head office and hopefully Holmgren has 1 more run in the tank. We'll see.

 

OSU - Solid as always. Consistently a top ranked team.

 

I guess I choose poorly when I picked the brownsfan name over osufan... damn it.

 

:doh:

 

 

As for pittsburgh - Next year will be an interesting year IMO. Another year like this and will the support for Tomlin remain? I bet Tomlin is watching Troy P's rehab like no other.

 

As for philly - who will be the QB? The ever-reliable, but can't win the big game McNabb? Or the kid waiting to play, but no idea what you got Kolb?

I am a Long long suffering Vikings fan....sigh - I remember the 76 Superbowl against the Raiders and I was all of 7. Am still in disbelief of their ability to find a way to lose last week against the Saints.

 

Look for the Vikes to make a play for McNabb - old Childress connection - and would fit into our scheme (old quarterbacks who can play brilliantly one week - and not so brilliantly the next).

 

Tomlin should have the support for a few more years. Look how long Cower had it prior to winning the big game. Goes to show how much one impact player can affect a team. Troy P is such a huge player for their defense.

Almost 10 years ago a couple of my math and programming guys got together and built some, for then, state of the art handicapping software.

 

These reports and the software are not for sale and this is not an advertisement but here is a short movie that demonstrates what some say is the state of the art in sports handicapping.

 

I did much better using it with baskeball rather than pro-football becasure there are so many more games from which to gather perfromance data.

I couldn't believe the Vikes lost that game - I don't think the Saints won but the Vikes lost.

I don't think that the Saints are anything special. I put down a considerable amout on the Colts ealry last week, though I am concerned a bit now with the Freeney injury. That is a massive loss, and Pittsburgh proved this year that a defense can go from from one of the best ever to a trainwreck with the loss of a one-of-a-kind player. Still think the Colts will win, but not sure about the cover.

Heard a few stories of this type of software, in fact, Billy Walters, the most successful handicapper today runs one and does the "Computer Group" syndicate. Myself and few friends developed a robot to scalp live betting programs, it worked well for a few years. Then the offshore gambling industry went to shit, companies became no pay or slow play, so we had to stop. That was years ago, and actually was the reason I stepped into the trading arena.

I bet small time on MMA fights. If you pick and choose your spots sometimes really strange lines will come up, especially when you have an older name fighter against an up and comer.

Its also nice because it doesn't lend itself to quantitative analysis at all. Sample size for fighters is vastly too small and 2 year old data is basically meaningless because the sport is so young and evolving.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
