LOVE giants at that value with marshall, think he's a MONSTER STEAL in fantasy this year, cowboys take a major step back/ seattle is done / gb -tb scare me!

I just dont see any values in the titans though, ne should cake walk to the bowl and if they dont i easily see oak/ind/pitt right there..... think your throwing away some hard earned money with the tennesse bet!

much respect though still brathaaaa good luck!


Yeah I tend to agree , I LOVE BETTING FUTURES ...So much easier to forecast in my opinion ...Daily wagering can be brutal with the Odds makers very sharp with their lines ...

Giants should be an insta bet when the NFC EAST Divisional odds are released ..Cowboys should be way too chalky and think they take a big step back vs a 1st place schedule ....

BEST OF LUCK BROTHER ....ENJOY YOUR SUMMER

Back when I was in it most racing was on the up and up. Once in a blue moon things were fishy. Thing is you need insider info to get an edge. Things like the horse just got treated by a vet or the maybe the stable has a virus going through it and one of them are showing no symptoms yet and are racing, chances are that horse will be off form. Info like that is priceless. Guess I feel handicapped now that I am out of it and don't get that info.
It was a big part of our (wife & I) life, very hard work, but enjoyable most of the time. Indian Casinos helped kill horse racing in Michigan as did the business itself. When my favorite catch driver, Dan Rathka, died in a harness racing accident in 1994 it took the guts out of me and I soon quit racing. Danny was the most honest down to earth person I ever met! God Bless his family! 

Hey, you enjoy your summer too! Really enjoy your posts!

I was conceived in the parking lot of the Fort Erie race track, which would explain a lot.  Does anybody have an opinion on Iowa or Iowa State?  

Iowa has to replace QB CJ Bethard, but he wasnt great.  They're returning most of their starters, which includes two potential All Americans, RB Akreem Wadley, and LB Josey Jowell.  They will also be getting Matt Vandeberg back at WR.  If QB Nathan Stanley is better than Bethard, Iowa could compete for the Big 10, but I have no idea what to expect from the Hawkeye's.  

I actually like Iowa State to surprise some people, they're returning some proven players on both sides of the ball.  Jacob Park, a Georgia transfer will be the starting QB.  They have one of the best WR's in the country Alan Lazzard, at RB they have two good players, David Montgomery and Mike Warren.

Defensively they're returning 6 starters, including All Big 12 S Kamari Cotton Moya, CB Brian Peavey and LB Willie Harvey.  Former QB Joel Lanning has made the switch to MLB, and by all accounts has excelled in his new role.  This isint a team that is going to win the BIG 12, but they could be a team that consistently covers.

appreciate your input 


Agree with you on CMU ....
But i think odds makers set CMU's win total at  Over 5/ or maybe even less ..
.I have them 4-8/ 5-7 right now 



Central Michigan was just released it under 7. -125


Needless to say I placed a max bet when I was at the station. 
Until the wallet is full.

Not saying they can't get the wins, I just think from a betting prospective they'll be a little overvalued...Good luck this season Double.


I agree with you Brother 


Coming in they could be a tad overrated ...

DOUBT i will like any of their Futures odds offered 

 7-5 sounds about right the more I look at them ...

one week at a time with the Rams might be the way to go 

WEEK 1 IS A INSTA BET FOR ME ($264/240)  IN THE NEW STADIUM 2.5 vs a Oregon ST squad that has plenty of holes ..

BEST OF LUCK BROTHER , GREAT TO HEAR FROM YOU .

Double Up!!!! THE U is back!!!!!! 

I'm with ya, the loss of kaaya is no big deal, to think they wont have competent,  if not good qb play is silly.  FSU gets em week 3, but not the rematch in charlotte. I  bet the 80-1 on 5d and 75-1 on a couple other sites.  About 15k if they win it all. maybe a little more by beginning of the season.  Havent done the conference yet, probably going to parlay it with the PAC 12 champ, and I must persuade to get rid of the ducks and replace them with the STANFORD CARDINAL!!!!!!!  TO think they wont have a good offensive line is reckless, the program develops power in the trenches better than anyone. Last season was an outlier. 
O-line goes from a weakness to a strength, Bryce Love is very good, Defense is Filthy.  They will get competent qb play.

NOT sure how I missed this post ...

FORT ERIE PARKING LOT 

When I was 17    (1990)_
used to Pound MY  SUPER HOT Canadian  G/F in the RACE TRACK PARKING LOT 
  in my First car ( 1976 Cutlass)   


What a small world Brother 
Your Parents seem like my kind of people 




I am down on Iowa this season 
My Main set of predictions calls for 6-6 

Difficult conference schedule 

Might be a Fade for me in a few key spots 


Iowa St could pull of few upsets this season 

BIG12 is full of landmine foes 

NOT sure i will be touching any futures on the cyclones

Ya it's hard to feel confident in Iowa State, but I actually think they have some upside... Jacob Park is a Georgia transfer and played okay in his first year at ISU.. Now that he is the full time starter, and former QB Joel Lanning is moving to MLB, I think both units should be improved.  Allen Lazzard has been one of the best wr's in CFB the past few years, David Montgomery is a solid RB, and they have some all BIG 12 players sprinkled throughout their roster... 

I dont like Iowa State to do great in the standings, but they could be a team to keep an eye on ATS

I will def. keep my eye on them as I see 4 of their BIG12 Losses came by 10 points or less 

Thanks for putting them on my radar

I never was a Big fan of Kaaya , Have high hopes for the FR. this fall ....
Would love to see them get the Noles in the ACC Championship ... Coule be a much improved Canes team from Game 3 ...


Stanford is Solid , I understand why you would want to bet them ... NOT much value in USC or Washington ...For now I am sticking with Oregon , but might take another down the road ,the Cardinal would be in my next 2 ....


THANKS FOR DROPPING BY

 Might be a big dog in the Championship though,Wonder how much they would be catching vs Bama ??? 

Maybe 10+ ???
