i hope you realize this by now, but im in first place in this game so maybe you should take your advice from me. yes i know how betting lines work, but they are also for money. were playing a game between friends so i thought betting on the same line might be a little more fair. i obviously forgot, like the draft bold prediction game, that this is a game of life or death so ill continue to bet the early lines and hope they change by sunday so danny will suffer.

MFisH · Negus

relax, ur 1 game advantage must be making ur head big. ur the one complaining that the lines arent being posted. i literally cant copy and paste the column onto a post. i said if u can do it, then go for it. but instead ur arguing with me every step of the way. im just saying i dont think its a big deal if the lines change when we post our bets

6ixty · Young Money

so ur agreeing to the 9ers eagles bet?

MFisH · Negus

hell no, im staying far away from the eagles until that d comes together

6ixty · Young Money

haha maclin and vick banged up uh ohhhhh

MFisH · Negus

i do think there gonna win, but by 9 is a lot. i woulda bet a ton that the eagles would have smashed the giants by 10 last week n they lost by 2tds. no way i would place money on the eagles this week

6ixty · Young Money

i swapped that game for the pats - raiders since you didnt want to do a side bet:

Bills (-3) over Bengals

Vikings (-2) over KC

49ers (-9) over dream team

Falcons (-4.5) over Seahawks

Giants (-1.5) over Cardinals

6ixty · Young Money

my least confident bet is the only one we agree on - vikes/chiefs

MFisH · Negus

i no, it sucks. looked a lot worse on sunday tho, they were saying vick could be out 3-4 weeks with a broken hand and maclin was gonna b out a few weeks also. but there both back at practice today so there both gonna play which is good.

typo: 49ers are +9.

ill be honest, i agree with all those bets (other than the 49ers, im just staying away from it) n they all look good but they all scare me a little too haha. i thought this was a rough week.

Either that, or just post the spreads directly on the forum on like Thursday or Friday and we just go by them.

aight im opening an account on sportsbook.com so we can throw some money on this bitch. me and fish looked at it last night and i think if we put our nfl knowledge together (along with a few bucks) we can win some money and have even more reason to cheer for teams that we dont give a **** about...

take a look and let me know what youre thinking. we can parlay anything we want together- straight lines, w/ spread and over/under. obvi the more you parlay the more you win. placing 50 on 5 games with the spread returns 1250!

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

Nick, goodluck with your account. Since it is illegal to sports gamble in the US, it is like jumping through rings of fire to add money to your account. I have an account with them.

MFisH · Negus

before i read this post i tried logging on to the website and my work blocked it! im pissed i wanted to mess around with it.

danny, ppl bet all the time online, if u cant do it through this website than where do u suggest?

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

Your credit card companies will decline the charges if you try using them. The only way to get money on your account is through some very fishy third party PayPal like websites. You used to be able to buy those prepaid Visa giftcards and use those, but even those were getting declined for me.

GOOD LUCK, let me know if you can find a way to add money to your account, I'll gladly put in some bets. The more money you bet with them, the more money they give you as bonus, since they know most jerks will just lose it! They gave me an extra $100 when I put $100 on my account last Christmas.

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

By the way, Fish, my last bet I made on Sportsbook was a $50 bet on the Eagles to win the Super Bowl.

I placed the bet at the start of the playoffs, which gave me 15:1 odds. I had already started picking out **** to buy!

MFisH · Negus

haha so was I!

danny, my question is, is it hard getting your money from them after we win our huge 3 team paraly bets?

Chase Cox · Blinn College Buccaneers Alum

That I do not know, I would be careful to read the fine print when it comes to claiming your money you win.

I put $100 on my account originally, got it up to as high as $281, and lost it all during NFL playoffs.

So, I have ZERO experience in that department!

6ixty · Young Money

Panthers (+3.5) over Falcons: Panthers have looked great, Falcons not so much. division game

49ers (+4) over Lions: Short week for the lions, 49ers looking good

Colts (+7) over Bengals: Colts gotta win sometime, or at least lose by less than a TD

Cowboys (+7) over Pats: Coming off their bye week and can put up points to hang with the Pats

Saints (-4) over Bucs: really, after that week and with no blount, thats the spread?

And Im real confident about all those

Colts (+7) over Bengals

Green Bay (-14.5) over St.Louis (their top three corners are gone, career day for Rodgers!)

Oakland (-6.5) over Cleveland

Saints (-4) over Buccaneers

Jets (-7) over Miami

MFisH · Negus

i wanna do a little more research before i put some actual money on the line but so far here are some observations:

- colts to cover at least 7 vs the bengals. colts have been close in there games since painter took over (cheifs, bucs both under 5) and the bengals barley beat the jags last week. i can easily see the colts winning this one

- i could see dallas covering, but r u ready to put money on romo vs the pats at home? sounds a little risky to me

- def think saints can take the bucs for more than 4. looks like a safe bet which means it probably is not going to happen

- bears over vikes by 2-3 looks tempting!

Like I said before, I did this over a year ago, and they used to accept prepaid Visa cards that you could buy at convenient stores. You used to even be able to call Sportsbook and they would plug in your zip code and they would tell you where to buy them!

Things were so easy then. I tried Bodog and had the same issue, let me know if it works.

6ixty · Young Money

aight were good to go

MFisH · Negus

NICE! does it do the same thing as sportsbook where u can play around with the bets to see how much money u can win?
