2024-2025 BL Pick'em thread vs. FrontRunner

im on it Commish.. im. in Wisco so actually have to drive to a US and WI sanctioned monopoly for a Sovereign Nation to legally place this.. So going to place a $line protected by a second bet that has the points..


honestly, i thought that was one of the most attractive lines on the board - i think if the Jets win, i can't see them winning by more than 6

so i really like the +6.5 but i also think NE probably wins outright


the other game i like is the Saints vs the Eagles - i think they're only laying 2.5


i bet a 7 team parlay the other day - the saints and the Pats are both in it

i took the Rams +7.5 and that's my least favorite pick - they're really banged up - but sometimes they play over there heads when it's the first game of significant injuries and they usually play the niners pretty tough, and the niners look a little so so to me and they're banged up too - so yea - im pretty sure that's a tight game


i like Indy too

and the Seahawks
 
I put 100 on the $line and 50 jets + points.. before you laugh at the betting parameters.. please realize the legality aspect of having Native monopoly here. Yeah I can fuckn around with all queasy legal shit, but why should I be forced to do that. I can not wait for a Dem Wisco. States has so many grass billboards for just past the border shops and it also pretends to reduce gambling. You really have to question what the fuck people are thinking?

So it was 6.5 -110 for both teams and then the line was NE +235 Jets - 275..

Here we go NE.. best bet really is ne with the points..

i gotta go to the indian casinos too - that's the only way you can bet sports in my state - i drive right past one sometimes when im working so that's where i place my bets - if anything else, i call my uncle in jerz


i like it - it's not easy to access and they have a kiosk - once you get the hang of the kiosk, it's great

they should put a chair by it so i can sit down and have a beer while i flip through it
 
Jesus...it's been a couple days, your pops alright?
Yea, he's ok. Bit of pain and he won't take any of my edibles. Luckily no surgery needed (it is displaced by 2 cm so any further abd they would've needed to reset it). He's a stubborn old prick though and refuses to just relax and heal, so I've gotta make sure I stop by and cut the grass and shit before he takes it upon himself.

I think my mom is more pissed about it all than he is tbh lol. Ruins their end of summer plans
 
they got crushed


im telling ya - the Pats definitley looked better last week when they played seattle

but that just goes to show ya - nobody should be trying to make any predictions this early on lol - maybe wait until after week 5 or 6?

should be interesting week overall


good luck on your picks

Thanks again ali. I've had six dentist appointments in the last weeks. But now hopefully I get a few weeks until the next. I will score week 4.

man, i feel like i'm in for another bad week. almost picked the giants to beat the cowboys, vikings to beat packers, bucs to beat the eagles, commanders to beat the cardinals and seahawks to beat the lions.

we'll see how many of these i end up changing.

I just picked blind right off the bat because it's starting to be deep enough into the season.. blind I picked bucks over the eagles. Flopped.
NFCN early season is looking really strong.. could hold up or it could kinda fold.. if everyone's playing pretty strong divisional teams its going tear up a division. Min 3-0 but the Pack has team this year, Love should be back.. I don't think we will be losing much from this current view. it's a home game but with the way our north division is looking all I see is excitement. We also really haven't played any divisional opponents.. no one has?


So yeah none of us really faced off yet.. we have Min and wonder off again.. seems like the league formula this year.
