CD Newsletter Week 8

Hope you didn't watch the last 5 minutes, just found out I had it live on TV, 2 huge headers saved by Arrizabalaga, your read was good, so many wasted opportunities, aaaaaaand now a huge save on the other end by Foster...

how can you not sprinkle some on Joc at 30 to 1?

@yaongingy

 lbcake had to lose eventually, he had posted about 17 consecutive winners in soccer. Getty had tailed all of them and used his winning to but a new skiff.

lbcake used his winnings to purchase a life sized statue if bigred's God-like physique

@barneybeans

 GL Mr Beans

Pretty sound reasoning behind all those picks ODB

My loss today cost 1958 a couple inches on his statue. 

 Corner overdose. Ugh. 

@Hugh_Jorgan

 Yep, I saw he is a prolific football caper, unfortunately all streaks must come to an end, eventually. It always throws me when I see it mentioned as soccer, since I've been following the sport my whole life, here in Europe it's just football to us.

Btw, not to be crass or anything, but which god are we talking about here? Hope it's not like that saying: I have the body of a god, too bad it's Buddha... 

I agree. Weird feeling the Patriots are going to smoke the Chargers. NE just kind of lays in the shadows because no one wants them to succeed.

@BWS77

 
everything is better I mean bigger in TX 

The only thing I was hoping for was the last games of each series to go over and that didn't happen. But if it did I would expect the total to be 8½ and that's what it is anyway.

This total should be 7½ OV -120. Not sure how the oddmakers came up with this 8½ malarkey.

MLB 18-19 +0.93

NFL 20-29-1 -2.54

After thorough dissection of both lineups, I come to these conclusions. 

Morton OVER 4.5 K's(-130) *1/.77

Valdez UNDER 4.5 K's(-135) *1/.74

ATL 1st 5 ML(+107) *1.50/1.61

I have to take the veteran Uncle Charlie Morton Salt. The dude has been coached by Ray Searage, Brent Strom, Kyle Snyder, and now Rick Kranitz of the Braves. He knows this ballpark, and he knows this lineup.

Framber is a bad man, and he will have to watch his walk rate. The Braves 2,3 and 4 hitters(Freddie, Ozzie, Riley) crush ground ball pitchers. So does Duvall in the 6 hole. It won't be easy tonight, for anyone. 

Like BigD mentioned on the other thread, don't pitch to Yordan. He is almost single handely the reason the Stros got past the BoSox, and the BoSox just kept feeding him. I trust Morton to be careful. If you do pitch to him, for Christ's Sake do not let the man extend his hands. Keep em high n tight, or low and away out of the strike zone. 

Good Luck

Agree. The books know what the public wants, and that's scoring. 2 great pens and 2 solid starters going tonight. 

If we put our winnings together and borrow a finski from ODB (before the Lions play) we can scrounge up a few happy meals at Mickey Ds

Here's to a good series and a shout out to Key Element. May they change his bedpan only between innings.

BOL

@barneybeans

 Yea we definitely can't afford Portillos 

Back to football talk.

Anyone seeing the Steelers as a live dog off the bye?

The entire world gave the Browns no chance last week, and now they are back on board. Line moved to -4.

I shal look up Tomlin off a bye when I get a chance.

Tomlin 7-7 ats off a bye. But I shall dig deeper to see how many times he's been a dog, I'm guessing little to none.

While looking I found a little gem that is interesting. And Hugh should get a boner. Mike Mccarthy is 11-2 ats off a bye.

@undermysac

 Football can wait.  Most underrated basic sandwich.

For me a BLT with garden grown tomatoes on soft white bread works all year round, but it's always an afterthought. Every time I do it's "why don't I have this more often?"

@undermysac

reports Chubb will be back.....I don't see that as a huge upgrade as D'Ernest filled in quite nicely last week and Chubb won't be " in form "    I believe the Steelers have only given up 2 rushing TD's all year ( someone check me on that )    So, that leaves Keenum to sling it all over the field.  I lean the points
