Well bama I DIDN'T fa fuck sake.  1 rule of thump is to STAY AWAY from loser teams like the Astros & Mariners etc. Its too bad Wandy 11k's couldn't keep those pesky blackpatch bastards bats quiet enuff. Its fitting to see the trend AFTER I picked Houston of the Pirates are 13-0 when blowin a lead of 1 run in late late inning in previous game comeback win the NEXT day. Thats baseball so hard ta get a meaningful streak    Getting back on horse tonite cause I'm jobless since last week. Later guys

That was a tough game to lose. You almost had it! You know what though? They can't keep Getrdonrite down! You'll be riding down that train in no time!

I see every reason that, with your excellent analytical skills, you will soon hit a smooth patch and string some wins together on the way to Captown. Good luck, my friend! I really like yours and Quad's over today. I think this will end your mini L streak.
Congratulations to Smooth and Quad on the NL west over! Ha! I knew it all along! See Smooth, I told ya so! I also hit on my pick for my W6! (Minnesota -126) I jumped aboard early for tomorrow's pick which is on the Giants. The line is @ -127 now, so the train will be leaving the station soon. Billingsley hasn't had very much success at AT&T Park and he will face All-Star Ryan Vogelsong. Vogy really needs to work on his walks, but I like what he has done this season to date. This will be his first start against the Dodgers. SF usually plays well against LA at home so I give the World Champions the nod in my bid for my seventh straight win.  SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS -127

ALERT! ALERT! One last thing before I get out of here tonight: DON'T FORGET TO SET YOUR BEAT THE STREAK PICKS FOR TOMORROW  BEFORE 1:05! There is a 1:10 start to the action Monday due to the DOUBLE HEADER! Also, don't get tripped up by the CLE/ MIN pick on the Survivor board! It is for the late/ second game of the DH. The line for game 1 is MIN -149. Later fellas! Good night and good luck tomorrow.

It seems on SFTC that any soccer game with odds of -200 or more are too good to be true....so take the dog or pass...lol

I also notice that when ESPN has a baseball game on at night the favorite seems to win...except the Yankees.....they are not Yankee fans.... wouldn't surprise me if most of their losses where on SFTC as well

just food for thought......Im going with the over in the Mets game tonite, keep alternating W then L....going for W2...lol

Just an afterthought. That was a tough loss by the USA women yesterday. They should have had Japan twice and let them off the hook.  Hopefully lesson learned but the USA women's soccer is a true World Power!

I found a cool site fellas with a bunch of other streak degenerates like us. They based theirs on SFTC. Check it out. It's live chat. I think you guys will like it and they have great info on streaks. Here is the link https://streakbeasts.weebly.com/

Yeah I tried to pick that one and it wouldn't let me because too many people were on the White Sox. So I did what any self respecting Capper would do...I went to Bodog and bet it for myself. The bad news is I took the under in Bos-Balt thinking the Red Sox would be tired. Yeah they were tired alright tired to the tune of 15-10  But I only had a 1 gamer going so no biggie.

I like the Over 10 tonight for no reason other then that both pitchers are in bad form, the Red Sox offense is hot but their pitcher is in even worse form then the Orioles starter.
