Pirates '24 CFL Season Picks

Nice writeup.

In reality, do you see Winnipeg starting the season at 0-4?

I don't....even with the key injuries at the WR position. 

@piratesgold

 7 of the past 10 games have been decided by 7 pts or less. 

Hi piratesgold.

I went with over 47.5 parlayed with Phillies (leading) and Copa Argentina 

Just got back from something more important than football and have been energized. 

Now it is time for beer and football.

Little John, I love you brother but parlays are hard.  Any parlay over 2 games is not for me.  But I love you honesty since most aren't open as you are.  I root for you as do many but parlays are hard unless you are really really a good capper.  I know you are smart.  So thank you for letting us in on your journey. 

dg84, thanks for correcting me.  Pretty close game though, eh?

Filly, I think like you brother.  It is hard to fathom Winnipeg going 0-4.  Oliveria might get them their win with Calgary's run defence being so horrible.  Good luck.

I GOT CGY +3.5 Damn Straight.

Just got home.

I am into UFC but looked for the in-game for CFL.  What is becoming obvious is that our Chef is a fair weather guy.  When he wins, we get the privilege of his presence.  When he is losing, he disappears even though those who befriend him don't hold loses against him.  Imagine being that prideful that you have to be a winner to exist.  If you don't win, then you don't have no value.  I don't buy that.  Chef has value regardless.  It is disappointing he thinks our love is contingent on his win-loss record.  What a shame.  When your down, is it not better to have the ones who love you pick you up.  I guess hiding into oblivion is a better way to go. 

Anyways, just start winning Chef so we get the privileged of your presence.  You can't seem to get past pride it appears which robs us of all the other things you have to offer.  Winning/losing doesn't define you. 

I am making an amazing mushroom cheese burger. It will be awesome....

Chef dissappears so we don't get to hear what a chef is creating tonight.  Shame.  Love is unconditional but chef thinks it is conditional on his wins.  Shame.

Good Night Sir.

@CFLChef

HI Chef,  I hope you are winning tonight.  You are an amazing person which has become a staple in our CFL lives.  It doesn't matter if you are winning or losing.  You have my love.  You shrink and dissappear when faced with adversity.  You don't have too.  Idolizing money and ledgers is not the real secrete to a happy life.  Just saying.  You can be bitter or just know that you are loved and your picks don't define you. 

Besides, this is just a slump.  Everyone had them.  It it is the slimeballs that make it more than it is.  As far as I know, every regular here supports you and thinks you a winner regardless of your record today.  We all support you and love you. Therefore, act like we aren't wrong for loving you.

Didn't see this post.  Makes me happy.  It is the start of.......

Good luck Chef.

My Pick:

7 point parlay teaser, Calgary +10.5 plus Under 54.5

14-13

 Oh man, I sure wish I could share my UFC picks and insights....  nobody cares.

Hi piratesgold. For the immediate future, I'm going to just stick with 2-game parlays and stop trying to hit a grand slam. I'll harness my current level of greed and impatience. Your write up was accurate.

What the "F" are you talking about piratesgold.

Grow the "F" up.

I post days in advance.  

Stay in your own thread.  Stay out of mine.

Sounds like hate.  I don't want any part of that.  I'll do as I please since it is a free country.  But, I freely chose to respect your wish and stay out of your thread.  Good luck with your picks Chef.  

I signed on to do a write up but now I am not really in the mood. 

Good luck everyone.

I took Hamilton ML last night.  -106

I took 7 point teaser of Under 58.5 along with Hamilton +6 today -120

Covers is like MSM.  They have 65% consensus on Ottawa but line moves towards Hamilton.  Interesting.  There is a lesson there but I don't want to spell it out since I shouldn't have to.  Ask yourself something, how does Covers make it's money?  By making you money?  Do yourself a favour and don't even read anything written by covers.  Bias, misinformation, and basically a paid script by a guy like Soros in the gambling world who pays for lies to take your money.  OK, so I did spell it out...  LOL.

@piratesgold

 Good luck! Finally back in action after hockey playoffs whooah. 

Cfl on tonight yay! 

Hi Fly.  So did you make a play on the game?

I hope you took the over. 

@piratesgold

 No but will think i will take Ottawa

Waiting for plus points

@Flyguy1700

 Good luck. 

Personally, I got Hamilton but watching, I'm not so sure.  The line moving like it has is confusing too.  Probably should have held off till the second half.  Maybe I make another bet then. 

An aside:  After watching Bo last weekend, I said I am betting against this guy.  He is not the MVP he use to be.  And I didn't take my own advice. 

@piratesgold

 Looks pretty even right now but like the home team advantage 

How is your record in the CFL?  You were on a run in basketball I think....

Now that this isn't much to focus on, you can't work on your CFL capping skills. 

When I get into a funk, I'll just tail you.  LOL  

I wonder if the Oilers are going to lose Draisaitl.

I don't see any value to add to what I already have for the second half.  Unlike another, if I bet, it would be relatively the same bet I originally had so why would I do it?  Plus, I don't see that either team has an edge.  They are pretty equal.  Therefore, pass for me on second half.

@piratesgold

 Cfl i am about even don't really keep a record per se. I'll probably play more as season progresses. 

Still a tight one tonight
