I need to quit complaining really, quit crying and do some push ups.  Yeah I do get so pissed off about these games sometimes though I just lose it totally, not to the point yet where I'm a grown man sobbing no, but I am getting close ha.  I always wonder when I see like some dude in the crowd with his head in his hands kind of balling after a game how much he lost on this one, oh he must of had a big bet on this game too bad.  

Yeah really anyway I mean I do have like a big ball of intertwined problems going, but ya know everybody has some, I just have a lot more ha, and they just fester on each other.  Guess if I can get this problem headed in the right direction that will be a good step, yeah the money problem is not good, but they all fester on each other.  Well yeah they are kind of correlated they all relate to each other, yeah yeah.  Won't outline em all even though that would be captivating reading, all 2 of my readers would like that I'm sure, no probably not.  Yeah I didn't call Tatie or try chaloots pick up thing no, oh tonight would be a perfect night to give it a shot St. Patricks day, forgot about that, although I wasn't thinking I was gonna drink today.  So if I am not gonna make an effort I should shut up then I suppose.


Montana +10.5 at Texas A@M, risked 330 to win 300

Too bad I waited on this could have got +11.5 yesterday.  I didn't figure it would go back up so okay.  Yeah House is out, and A@M is struggling big time without him, so not sure how this would be an easy win for em.  Yeah lost to Bama at home even oh whoa, think Montana is better than Bama, pretty sure on that.  Plus lost to crappy Auburn then, yeah those 2 games without House did not go well, pretty fuckking far from it.

Not sure what else I wanna do yet.  I never know for sure what teams will wanna try in these stupid shitt tournaments, NIT, CBI, and CIT.  Some teams always just mail it in, but you can't always tell on that.  A full good effort will not be given by some teams you can bet on that, gotta figure out which ones.

I like this bet. Montana qualified for a ML Play on my spreadsheet thing that I do but didn't pull the trigger. The points are a bonus...they can win outright.

BYU went back down now to -2.5, hmmm, well Ole Miss better play a lot better than they have been lately or that won't happen them covering that.  They could I mean I know why they haven't been it is cuz of Summers he is really not right here the last 6 or 7 games something like that.  Well everybody is beat up somewhat now, but he is really hurtin, he isn't listed on my injuries, but I know from watching, and nagging things he has going, yeah he is not the same player.  His shooting just fell off entirely, he can't even hit 40% of his shots ever anymore, and the 3 ball no way.

Yeah Texas A@M they would have to suddenly rebound and bounce back here.  Which I doubt it without House.  Plus Montana is pretty decent really.  The Big Sky has some good teams this year.  That E. Washington vs Gtown has my attention as well there jic jac.  Gtown they are always a total disaster in the tournament, wonder though if they will finally buck the trend.  It reminds me somewhat of Nebraska back in the 90's my Huskers yeah they had a good run of not winning or covering in their opening game.  Every game was a complete debacle, and not close to the spread either, same thing with Gtown they got a run of futility going.

I think it becomes a mental block at some point, cuz I remember my Huskers back in the 90's they would be talking about it in interviews, before the last couple losses in a row.  Then they go out there same thing just play awful not get within even 10 of anybody.  Yeah one of the last ones, may have been the last in the streak was New Mexico St, and that is still their only tourney win New Mexico St ha.  I remember going into that I thought okay we can win this one it is just New Mexico St they suck, nope, lost by about 15 or so in a pick em.  Yeah then next round New Mexico St got blasted by 40 by Florida.

Added on one for the NCAA, Friday on this one.  Yeah this one stood out to me as a total dismantling.

Coastal Carolina vs Wisconsin -19.5, risked 440 to win 400

It looks like Wisconsin is gonna have a good size advantage down low on em.  Probably a lot of easy buckets then for Frank, Dekker, and Hayes I would think so, or either open 3's if they double on em, yeah unless Coastal is making 3's I don't know how this would not get up to 30+ probably for Wisconsin.  Coastal isn't exactly a team that lights it up from 3 either, yeah 113th in 3 point %, oh that won't get it done, so good luck hangin in there ha, oh man this may be 40 or so on the margin I don't see how it could be within 20 points, no doubt that. 

Yeah that one looked pretty straight forward, I wanna do 500 on it, but I'm afraid now, I don't want some disaster where I am dropping a boat load either.

Yeah with some of these smaller teams I don't remember totally from the season like Coastal what they did I have to kind of review what they are, I am not a huge follower of the Big South during conference play no.  I think it would be ideal for a huge blowout this match up for Wisconsin, I don't know how it wouldn't be.

Harvard vs North Carolina -9.5 risked 550 to win 500

Oh yeah I already bet this one, I put it up a while back think Sunday night when I was hammered and what I said didn't even make sense, cuz I read it the next day, and I was thinking what?  Harvard didn't play Florida and get wasted, it was at Virginia ha, where they got bombed 76-27.  I was thinking of Yale at Florida, well I did bet both of those Virginia over Harvard, and Florida over Yale, yeah I won both but I got confused there in my write up I guess, nobody may have read my fuckk up anyway there.  Yeah but I see where North Carolina's just size and athleticism will overwhelm Harvard, probably try and just speed up the game and take over athletically and on the boards where they can dominate here.  Harvard did do well last year though, and the year before an upset.  But I don't think this is Cincy 2014, Michigan St 2014, they hung in that one vs Michigan St, or 2013 New Mexico, and this Harvard isn't as good as those were, no they don't look near as good to me just shooting wise and everything, guess we'll see.  Got a decent line anyway -9.5 now its -10.5, but guess it was only -8.5 early.

I keep thinking about Eastern Washington +7.5 now and Iowa St -13.5, I kinda like those, yeah I think so.  Iowa St though that line is getting kinda high now, hmmm, UAB is pretty awful though.

Added on one for Thursday.

SF Austin +7 vs Utah risked 440 to win 400

This one I am just taking cuz Utah has been sucking azz lately.  They even lost to Washington at the end of the year, I have to bet against any team that lost to Washington at the end of the season when Washington couldn't beat anybody.  They even lost bad by 10 points yeah it wasn't too close the last 5-10 minutes no Washington seized control like they were good or something.  Now that is just one game there late, but they weren't doing much very well late in the year, like maybe last 8 or  9 games there weren't too many solid performances, guess they did thrash Stanford.  SF Austin should at least make it close, that is a bad league there though, but they were dominating anyway about every opponent in that.  I would say SF Austin can shoot some 3's they are pretty good at that, put up some points.  They are a lot shorter though, could be an issue, hope not.  


Don't think I want anything else for tonight.  I do kinda wanna do BYU though, but it is looking a little funny to me, not sure if I wanna go there.  Ole Miss they would probably need good solid games from both Summers and Moody to cover the +2.5 in that, those guys haven't been both contributing good efforts at the same time lately though, not usually.  Still think Summers is just beat up is the deal with him, I guess I said that before.

Yeah hope so BWS.  I like my games so far, but I haven't bet many yet.  Utah could probably just lose that game outright, well they lost to damn Washington badly, they could easily lose this one I think, don't see why not, or well I got +7 too, so okay I like that many points.

Added on the home team.

Boise St at Dayton -4, risked 440 to win 400

Dayton is undefeated at home, most wins by more except one game vs Richmond I believe it was.  Anyhow this is not most home games here this is the NCAA, so yeah will be raucous UD arena will be, raucous won't begin to describe it.  Yeah that is the only reason I bet it ha, well this about as tough a situation as you could draw up in college hoops at any time I think.  I can't imagine any worse thing could happen for somebody.  4 seems cheap then to me.

Oh yeah biscuit, I have been here since 2009, but I posted at CTG that other forum for a while.  I can't go back to CTG, so will stay here, well I don't mind posting in the penalty box really.  I could go back to CTG, but I have issues there, I get upset, won't go into that again.  Guess I don't need to say I have issues everybody knows that here now yeah.

I kinda wanna take San Diego St just cuz Obekpa is out now for St J.  Would prefer the line to go back down to -3 however, see -3.5 now it has gone up quite a bit.  Well St J they kinda need Obekpa they aren't big at all otherwise, still have some athletes, but San Diego St probably has too much size for em then.  Yeah unless St J is lightin it up on the 3 ball, and occasionally they do so there would be the way San Diego St could blow it for me in that game.

May bet some horses now for a while I think.  You know that will be thisoh yeah big winners always.  If I lose a few I will quit.

Oh yeah, I didn't remember that either BWS, oh yeah that could be a real issue on totals.  Won't really affect my side bet I don't think on Montana.  That is all I took tonight.

Yeah I just had the spreads without the totals printed out today from last night, and you know I rarely do totals anyway.  I didn't even look at em on tonight's games so I didn't notice that.

Yep I don't do many totals ever in hoops, I do in football and baseball.  Hoops totals seem to not be good for me, although nothing has been going spectacular this year except for a couple little good runs I had.
