💵BUFFALO BILLS vs PATRIOTS+The National Football Sports Entertainment Business slate🤑+other WED-MON investments

What's up FAMILY ?? 

BEST OF HEALTH, HAPPINESS, BLESSINGS and LUCK TO ALL !!! 

Currently riding a RED HOT streak winning over $14K over the last 2 weeks in all sports ( NFL/MAC FB/CFB/EPL/UCL/Bennett HS football state playoffs ....Let's keep it BLAZING 

Absolutely LOVE the BUFFALO BILLS team total OVER with the drop to 22.5 !!! Will be betting it straight and wheeling it on top of Parlays below...

The PATRIOTS are playing excellent football right now and they could walk out of Orchard Park with a win ..Thinking they'll need to score qt least 24 points to do so ( if not more ) .If you like the PATS I'd strongly recommend betting them over their low team total  OVER of 20.5 ( But that's not my bet ) 

The BILLS got some very good news this week as it's 2 best O lineman returned to practice.  Before injury Jon Feliciano was playing at a pro bowl level,  and before missing time with covid and injury rookie  RT Spencer Brown looked to be the key cog on the line as the BILLS offense has looked night and day better with him in the lineup .(They looked horrible vs Colts and Jags with him out ) On Defense the anchor Star is back at DT ( Perfect timing)) ..The loss of Tre White will definitely sting but look for the secondary to play well as Taron Johnson has been waiting for full time duties to shine ...

On to NY STATE HS FOOTBALL  CLASS AA CHAMPIONSHIP game ...My alma mater BENNETT is fresh off of a 38-0 shutout as a 13.5 point underdog.  My TIGERS head to the Carrier Dome to face #1 ranked CARMEL from the Hudson Valley...I'm waiting for my large local who takes bets from Ohio to Quebec to release his lines ( should be tonight ) ..I'm expecting BENNETT to once again be a dog  , might even catch 20+ ...I'll breakdown this matchup in the following posts ...

Also amped up for CFB conference championship ..Definitely will be middling my $500 to WIN $7k MAC future on KENT ST ..( MORE BELOW ) ...

Congrats on Bennett, hope they get it done in Cuse...

Heck of a run for you, hope you win that Bills TT

I was looking for the TT and noticed half time the bills O 10.5 is +107 and NE O 9.5 is -130 so I put a little on the bills and may NE as well. The site won’t let me parlay the two or I would 

Hell of a RUN. Keep investigating!!

Thank you Brother 

Can't believe the MIRACLE run BENNETT is on ..Considering they only have around 28-32 players dressed for each game .. 5-6 players never come off the field playing offense , defense and all facets of special teams ...They run the ball 98% of the time like we did in the early 90's ..Coach McDuffie is like a father or close uncle to the kids , he nearly breaks down in tears in post game interviews thanking the parents and the teachers for all the hard work they pour into the kids ...

They still use a Bennett staple were every kickoff is kicked about 15 yards with the toughest 11 players running down field to hammer anyone they can ...The last 2 teams look horrified after the 2nd time it happened ...Forces the opposition to put the hands team out there and take some brutal hits...

They play with a ton of piss , vinegar and sportsmanship...Their coaches and family members remind them that less than a decade ago Buffalo Public schools were not allowed to play suburban schools in football and were also banned from the state playoffs ...In the late 80s and 90's we were supposed to play 1 preseason game againist the burbs , like clockwork they would cancel 24-48 hours before kickoff .They'd have some BS excuse , we'd find out they scrimmaged another suburban school and avoid us . ( they probably would have kicked our arse anyways back then ) ....

That BILLS team total will probably largely depend on the Weather and the Refs ...I expected oddsmakers to post the spread at 3.5/4 with a total around 46/46.5 ...Figured BILLS TT would be around 25/25.5 ....It opened at 23.5 -112 at Seneca,  dropped to -103 last night,  followed by 22.5 -125 this morning ...

Bennett advances to the Class AA NYS championship game this Saturday at 3 pm at the Carrier Dome against the undefeated Section 1 Carmel Rams.

This match-up promises to be something special as Bennett-Buffalo is the pride of New York’s second largest city and Carmel is the Putnam County stronghold of the Hudson River Valley. Both teams are formidable physically.

Bennett stat leaders from the Cicero North Syracuse victory:

Rashard Perry — 13 tackles including 3 sacks for minus 19, 6 other tackles for losses, and a forced fumble.

Javier Brown - 4 tackles, a fumble recovery for a 60 yard TD, and another interception for plus 10.

Jayden Lewis — 6 tackles, a forced fumble, a deflection, and another pick six for 57 yards. Lewis now has 12 picks for the season and 8 defensive touchdowns.

Dominac Allen — 167 yards rushing on 13 carries for 2 TD’s on carries of 60 and 28 yards. Allen has 2,323 yards for the season on 184 carries and 24 TDs and a per rush average of 12.6.

Torey Anderson — 100 yards on 8 carries and 2 conversions and 6 solo tackles. Anderson is nearing the millennium mark with 981 total rushing yards.

Jamario Toliver — 73 bruising rushing yards on 11 carries for 1 TD of 6 yards, and 8 solo tackles.

Preview per inside WNY athletics..

Wow those are definitely low...Might all depend on the wind,  but those look good to me ...

Sweep your board Brother 

I’m really liking your teams matchups this week…A LOT..Hoping Beasley gets more touches..

I may add more units closer to game time making this one of my first big wagers this year..

Good Luck DoubleUp

Go Josh Allen!

I've seen one of my local channels have high school, I hope they put this game.  I think I spent enough time at Shoshone I can be a honorary homer.

Do they kick any FGs/extra points?  I doubt 38 points was 5 TDs, 5 ex pts, and a FG....I remember you saying Bennett never had a kicker.

@thorpe

try   n f h s.......12 dollars a month hs sports anytime......

Yeah , very solid ..Last game it wouldn't let me log in though until the 3rd quarter ..Thankfully the state playoff games are free in YouTube as well ... Kind of like it better without the announcers sometimes ..

Should be on YouTube for free , but I can give you my NFHS pass word ...Been having trouble logging in before kickoff for some reason, but I'm sure you can figure it out...

You can definitely be a BENNETT homer ...

I remember we played with a few Mcduffie's over the years ...One was the RB at sweet hone ( believe his name is Chris ) ..Think he played for a 1 year or 2 at the JCC ...Another one played at CLARK when we ran with those 2 guys that worked there ( can't remember their names ).

They scored 5 tds and 4 , 2 point conversions ...I'm not sure that Bennett has had a kicker since the late 70's ...The star RB Allen is the punter , he has burned several teams on fake punts this season ...Also does a good job with some very dangerous high punts ... 

Got the line last night at +20.5 , Think I'll wait and see it it climbs...CARMEL is very good , and might just be too good and deep for the Tigers ...BENNETT thrives on dominating the line of scrimmage only rushing 4 ..Rashard Perry was beating triple teams the last 2 games ..Carmel's o line looks real good on film ...I'll be at the game either on the field or right behind the bench in the stands...Dressed in all ORANGE ( should stand out ) ...

I like reading the history of high schools and any famous alumni. Bob Lanier, Beverley Johnson, to name a few. Westside Gunn but I know how you feel about those dudes.

Oh, and J.D. Hogg! And the Super Freak himself spend some time on the band. And Green Bay has a rookie linebacker, a McDuffie. Gotta be a part of that same family, right?

This really goes back to the grandfather, Stevenson McDuffie, who had an abiding love for family and a football dream. He and his wife, Lachez, raised six children in Buffalo’s inner city and believed that sports could help them grow into educated citizens and lead them to better things in life.

Son Steve McDuffie, who played at UB and is now in his 11th year as Bennett High’s football coach, recalls growing up in the Mariner Homes, how his father would invite all the neighborhood kids over, maybe 15 or 20 on a good day, and teach them football techniques in the back yard.

“Football was his gift to us,” Steve Jr. said on a recent Sunday morning in the living room of his North Buffalo home. ”I remember when we were growing up, my father put that football mentality into all of us.

“He didn’t have too many rules, but one rule he did have was, ‘You’re going to do well in school, and you’re going to play football.’”

His mother wasn’t much of a football fan. Lachez had an English degree from Canisius College and was all about books and education. “To her, football was a way for us to get educated, a way for us to use it as a launching pad to get in front of our competition,” Steve said.

“I think when my mom and dad had all these boys, it was an agreeable ideal that football be a main part of our life,” said Teddy McDuffie, who starred at Grover Cleveland and went on to play college ball at Temple and UB. “We didn’t have a lot growing up. My dad worked at the steel company when we were younger and when he was older, he worked in security.

Sullivan: How can you bet against a man like UB football coach Mo Linguist?
“In my eyes, football became a vehicle they gave to us,” said Teddy, an administrator at Pinnacle Community Service, which runs runaway and homeless shelters. “As I’m older now and I look back, my mom knew we were pretty good at it. But her thing was, ‘Football can take them places.’ I think she embraced it because my dad really loved the game.

“People called him the father of the community,” Teddy said. “Other Black kids didn’t have a father around teaching them the game. And my mother was always a caretaker. If people didn’t have anything to eat, she’d give them something to eat. I worked in foster care and child welfare, and now with homeless and runaway youth, because of the service I watched them give to the community.”

Football became the family passion, their link to the larger community. The name ‘McDuffie’ became synonymous with the sport in Buffalo. For the last 35 years or so, there have been McDuffies running and tackling on the fields of Western New York.

It’s hard to top the Gronkowskis, who put four brothers in the NFL. But you could call the McDuffie clan the First Family of Football in the city, a ubiquitous presence in the high school ranks and a tradition in the University at Buffalo program that endures to this day.

Terrance, the oldest son, was a star at Grover Cleveland under the legendary Art Serotte. Teddy says Terrance was a great all-around athlete, maybe the best of them all. Steve and Teddy played at Grover as well. Teddy once rushed for 300 yards three times in a four-game span. He was student body president at Grover and a leader for Serotte.

“His father was the greatest guy in the world,” said Serotte, 82. “He and I were very, very close. His mother, Lachez, was a super mother. They loved her. Their kids came first.”

Younger brother Chris, who played at Williamsville North, played running back at UB from 2003-06. He was the Bulls’ top running back until he hurt his knee in ’06, in Turner Gill’s first year as coach. He was replaced by freshman James Starks, who became a star at UB and was the featured running back for the Packers when they won the Super Bowl in 2011.

Terrance’s older son, T.J., was a star at Williamsville North. His son, Dylan, is a junior running back at UB. Teddy’s son, Teddy Jr., plays football and basketball at Amherst High. A fifth McDuffie brother, Thaddeus, has a son who is a high school star in Columbus, Ohio. Tyrone McDuffie III, their first cousin, is a star tackle in Texas being recruited by Power 5 schools. Steve said his sister Lachez’s son is a budding star.

So there’s a lot of talent in that McDuffie gene pool. Steve Jr.’s daughter, Gabrielle, a basketball star at Niagara CCC, played at a national JC showcase in Atlanta in July. His son, Noah, is playing well for the Bennett JVs.

But the best of all is his son, Isaiah, who starred at Bennett and at Boston College and was drafted by the Packers in the sixth round. Two weeks ago, Isaiah McDuffie realized a family dream when he played in his first regular-season game against the Lions — on a Monday Night Football, no less.

Isaiah is well aware it was the realization of a family dream. He said it felt as if his family members were out there with him.

“A hundred percent,” Isaiah said last week from Wisconsin. “Especially my grandfather. Every time I step on that field, I’m playing for him and playing for the name on the back of my jersey.

“I know I’m that role model for a lot of people in the City of Buffalo, and my family also. I carry that pride and I know a lot of people are looking at me. So, I’m always going to do the right thing and always be that person people can look up to and say, he’s a good person you’ll one day want to be like.”

Stevenson McDuffie passed away in 2018. But Isaiah sees his grandfather every day. The screen on his cell phone is a photo of him and his grandpa standing proudly together on the night he won the Connolly Cup as the best high school football player in Western New York in 2016.

I'll finish the rest of the article from the Buffalo news later ( as if anyone cares )

Adding 

BENNETT +21   $880/800

ML  +625.  $222 /$1387.50

Going much lighter than I did on the last 2 games....Regardless of what happens on Saturday I'll have won over $5400 on their possible state championship run...I've been watching CARMEL'S games (12-0) , extremely solid team, but they have NOT been tested , not even once.. That might be a major disadvantage vs BENNETT who is very physical and fast ..The Tigers are battle tested facing some of western new York's premier powerhouses ( Lancaster , Orchard Park both twice, WNY Maritme , and Clarence ..As well as Rochesters Mcquaid)... 

I'll have plenty more rambling posts about Saturday in the carrier dome to follow ( God willing )

Sorry for the late response Family 

Beasley is one tough Brother ... He's been playing through a brutal rib injury ..Even at a possible 60% they cant keep hime out of the lineup . Word on the streets is he's getting closer to 90% now ...Could see him having a huge game Monday as a safety valve for Josh Allen ....I'm looking to bet on BILLS rushing props ..Singletary and Brieda could go way over their totals 

 One of the biggest factors might be Mac Jones playing his first game is REAL FOOTBALL WEATHER .. Forecasting here might be the most unpredictable in the continental USA lol... Right now my homie Aaron the meteorologist is calling for 25-30 degrees ( 20-30 mph winds )  34 % chance of snow... While the kids and I will probably be playing basketball in shorts and hoodies before kickoff ,  the Rookie could struggle in a Martian climate 

BEST of LUCK BROTHER

Damn wish I checked the weather before locking this TT in. Saw the total for the game dropping as well. Here’s to hoping for better than projected weather!
