NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Moore looks like he gonna be special.

I'm almost starting to think about considering the possibility that USC might have a serviceable defense.

October 14 going to be fun

 

[thunderc]

They aren't very good....gotta improve or Texas will blow them out.

You have no clue

This is what we will be dealing with this week. I say get them both off the field.

 

[bksballer89]

You have no clue

I agree

 

[dtgold88]

I like a few

Tier 1
Iowa -3.5
Liberty - 9.5
Pitt -6.5
FIU +12.5
Oregon -6.5

Tier 2
Miami +3.5
Tulane +6.5
Wash St +5.5

I wade pretty gently til week 3.

Was about to hit on a parlay and needed Tulane +13.5 to hit (alternate spread).

I hate everyone.

Easy there, Utah will have at least one say in that one.

Utah needs their QB back. They looked like dog shit yesterday

I think they will have him soon

About to join....is Fan Duel or Draft Kings better......thoughts?

I like DK better. seems like they have better spreads and more options. Also more offers (like no sweat bets, better/more boosts, etc).

 

[dtgold88]

Been fucking around on here for almost 8 years betting fake cash. Fuck it, going with Fan Duel....deposit $5 and you get $200 bonus.

LETS GO!!!!

while I prefer DK, you should definitely take the free cash for both...also Bet365.

I’ll leave you with one thought. I know a guy that works at a book in Vegas. Vegas makes on average 5 percent on every straight bet placed, but 30 percent on parlays. Pretty easy to see where they make their money. I always place one when I can but it’s easy to get caught up starting out.

I can see that for sure....I think it's because people get greedy with those parlays (I am guilty sometimes). Instead of doing, say, a 2-3 teamer they do way more legs.

 

[dtgold88]

Very conservative till I get that 200 bonus bet money.

I see these a lot on DK and have done well with them.......they have ML bets where if your team goes up a certain amount you win (whether they end up winning the game or not).

I'll do the NFL ones when it is up 7 you win.....bball if it's up 10......baseball if up 2

I'll also only do it if I like the underdog as they can lose but still take an early lead.

 

[dtgold88]

Not sure as i been on fanduel for 3+ years now but i would assume maybe after your $5 bet settle.

@dtgold88 any idea on this? I know you got into sports betting within the last year or so

Yeah that sounds about right....didn't take too long. Might be wrong but think FD gave $200 to use however (within a certain time) and DK gave eight $25 bonus bets to be used in a certain amount of time.

 

[dtgold88]

I prefer fanduel because it looks better/easier to use but draft kings gives more options imo for same game parlay and usually offer better promotions

kind of ninjad......but I prefer DK because of the reasons you gave. Feel like it's just as easy to navigate.

 

[DJ Fieri]

You have no clue

I actually do....like yesterday when I was educating you on Texas vs Alabama and you said no.

LOL.

 

[dtgold88]

How much was Colorado favored over Nebraska? They are having zero problems with them.

Guessing you got an answer but if not was only 2.5

Made me stay away as would have thought Vegas knew something and pretty much made it so most would take CU. They don't like to lose.

 

[DJ Fieri]

You have no clue

No clue? LOL.

 

[dtgold88]

Offense has been too inconsistent for me. Respect for the NC St defense but the execution and doing the little things hasn’t been there today. Need to be much better vs OSU. @The Q you were right about Armstrong. He’s been garbage.

Promise you me and other OSU fans are thinking same about us when we play ND.

Neither QB looks all that impressive but McCord looks better. Just hoping it's gonna take time and he will play like the 5 star he was eventually. Don't recall how long it took to know Stroud was the guy he became.
