The Rx.com Mod Team has created this Service Play sub-forum in order to supply an area for Rx Service Play Posters to expand upon their posting topics without creating a logjam in the main forum where the three principle threads are maintained..

Posters can track services here if they care to but we will need any trackers to do so in an accurate and civil manner. We did not create this area for posters to ridicule or bash any services..

You can also discuss who is hot and who is not. The general state of the pay for plays industry and any other subject or topic related to service plays.

You can also create individual threads about specific services and discuss them freely but civilly. Again bashing and abusive treatment of any services will not be tolerated.

Please remember, this forum is not here for regular posters who cap their own games to post ther daily plays. Please use our individual sport forums to post your plays. Professional cappers (those that sell plays) must remain in the Site Promotion Forum.

The Rx.com will not tolerate posters that post false records of any services they track. Please be truthful if you decide to track a particular service.

Lastly The Rx Moderators are appealing to you our everyday posters to report any promotional threads or posts that are made by services or individual touts. No links or contact information to an individual service will be allowed. Just the name of the service. Please report any threads or posts that are promotional attempts by services and touts to use this forum to promote themselves..

Posters can easily report a promotional post by using the triangular Report-a-Post Icon at the bottom left of all post boxes. The poster name of any poster who reports a post that is out of line will be kept strictly confidential.

I will leave this thread open for a month to take questions and do my best to answer them. I will check in daily but am off on Wednesday and Thursday.

I hope this additional Service Play Forum will satisfy those posters that would like to widen the scope of topics relating to service plays and the industry in general to have their own threads. Mods will be liberal as possible regarding topics but this forum was specifically created to allow you more freedom to express your ideas regarding service plays and related subject matter. No off topic threads will be allowed.

Thank you, wilheim

MIAMI/MARYLAND OVER THE POSTED TOTAL

[FONT=arial, helvetica][SIZE=-1]The OVER was 4-1 the last five times that the Terps were favored in the -3.5 to -10 range in the Friedgen era. With Edsall's Terps now looking to play at a fast tempo, I expect more of the same on Monday night. *10 Blue Chip [/SIZE][/FONT]

Happy Labor Day, hope you guys enjoy this day with your family. Trying to get this game in Early because we might be busy tomorrow and we like the games alot.

Tigers +105 (3 Units) - Detroit has scored 35 Runs in three days and to top it off Fister is 2-0 with a 0.83 Era. How the hell is Detriot underdogs against the Indians.

Dbacks +103 (2 Units) - A tale of 2 teams headed in different directions. Arizona is headed to the playoffs, and they know what must be done. Miley hasn't been bad and we can't see AZ losing this one.

GC MLB System Play

Monday 100% Triple Angle MLB Total leads the card. In College football were on the total from a double Angle. Free MLB System Play below. Bonus Plays 16-6 run.
On Monday the free MLB System Play is on the Boston Redsox. Game 977 at 1:05 eastern. Boston fits a simple but effective game one system here today. We want to play on road favorites off a home favored loss, vs an opponent off a road loss of 5 or more runs. These road favorites have won 11 of the past 13 applications. Both teams enter off blowout losses. But Boston has Beckett. In his last 2 starts vs Toronto he has allowed 4 earned runs in 14 innings. He has a fine 2.79 road era this season. He opposes H. Alvarez today. Alvarez has a 5.40 era in his only 2 home starts and figures to struggle here vs a Boston team that is averaging 8.8 runs on .343 hitting on turf this season and 6.5 runs on .303 hitting in day games. Look for Boston to take game one. On Labor day Monday the Lead play goes at night and has a 100% Power Angle. I also have the Double Angle total in the Monday night NCAAF Game. Jump on and start the week right on Labor day night. For the Bonus Play take the Red sox. GC

Miami-Florida (0-0) at Maryland (0-0) DATE & TIME: September 5th, 8:00 p.m. (et)

FACTS & STATS: Site: Byrd Stadium (48,055) -- College Park, Maryland. Television: ESPN. Home Record: Miami-FL 0-0, Maryland 0-0. Away Record: Miami- FL 0-0, Maryland 0-0. Neutral Record: Miami-FL 0-0, Maryland 0-0. Conference Record: Miami-FL 0-0, Maryland 0-0. Series Record: Miami-Florida leads, 8-7.

With a cloud of controversy hovering overhead, the embattled Miami-Florida Hurricanes will take the field on Monday evening to battle the Maryland Terrapins in ACC action.

When Al Golden decided to leave Temple and accept the vacant head coaching position at the University of Miami, he had no idea what he was walking into. Imprisoned booster Nevin Shapiro began diming out past and current Hurricanes to whom he provided significant gifts, both cash and otherwise, over a nearly decade-long period. As a result, Golden plays this opener without several key members of his team, as the school beat the NCAA to the punch by declaring the individuals ineligible.

Like Miami, Maryland has a new head coach in the person of Randy Edsall, who jumped ship from the University of Connecticut. Edsall replaced the immensely popular Ralph Friedgen, who led the Terps to a 9-4 record last season and earned ACC Coach of the Year honors, not exactly the type of results that warrant a firing. Clearly, the Maryland brass will accept nothing short of excellence, and with seven starters back on both offense and defense, Edsall has some significant talent with which to work.

Miami took an 8-7 series lead over Maryland with a 26-20 triumph over the Terps last season.

Quarterback Jacory Harris is one of the eight Miami players ruled ineligible, and the offense will undoubtedly miss his leadership if the suspension is upheld. Harris had an up-and-down junior campaign, completing just over 54 percent of his passes, for 1,793 yards with 14 TDs and 15 INTs. Sophomore Stephen Morris finished his freshman season with 1,240 passing yards, and he has the talent to guide the Miami offense to success in place of Harris.

Wideout Travis Benjamin (43 receptions, 743 yards, three TDs) has also been ruled ineligible, so LaRon Byrd (41 receptions, 441 yards, one TD) will have to step up as the top target on the outside.

Keep an eye on Lamar Miller in the ground attack, as he showcased his big-play potential last year by averaging 6.0 yards per carry en route to Third-Team Freshman All-American honors.

Just as the Hurricanes will miss Harris on the offensive side of the ball, linebacker Sean Spence will leave a gaping hole in the defense if he is not reinstated by kickoff. With 111 tackles a year ago, including 14.5 TFL, Spence has already shown his first-round ability to NFL scouts.

Safeties Ray-Ray Armstrong (79 tackles, 4.5 TFL, three INTs) and Vaughn Telemaque (58 tackles, three INTs) were supposed to be part of one of the nation's top secondaries, but both are members of the ineligible list.

Maryland lost its top two playmakers from last season's offense, but the club does welcome back ACC Rookie of the Year Danny O'Brien under center. O'Brien started 10 games for the Terps and finished with 2,438 yards passing and 22 TDs, outstanding numbers for a freshman.

"He's a rare individual," says Edsall of his signal caller. "I haven't been around a lot of guys like Danny in terms of how he prepares, how he studies, and how important the game is to him."

The team also returns leading rusher Davin Meggett (720 yards, four TDs) and scoring machine D.J. Adams (11 TDs) to the backfield.

"I told him he needs to be ready to be a work horse," said Edsall of Meggett. "I think he relishes that opportunity and he needs to be a complete running back."

While the Maryland defense returns seven starters as mentioned, arguably the two best players from the 2010 unit are gone. In an effort to assuage the losses, the Terps are moving All-America candidate Kenny Tate (6-4, 220) from free safety to Star (a LB/S tweener). Tate (100 tackles, 3.5 sacks last season) is a dynamic defender who is a difference-maker, but he won't be able to do it alone.

Up front, the Terrapins will rely on the inside play of tackles A.J. Francis (44 tackles, 2.5 sacks) and Joe Vellano (63 tackles, five sacks). The loss of a player of Tate's caliber would cripple most secondaries, but Maryland still has playmakers in the defensive backfield, highlighted by two-year starter Cameron Chism (5-10, 190) at cornerback.

Is it possible that Miami will overcome all of the turmoil and put forth a winning effort on the road in an early conference game? Sure it is, but that still seems a bit unlikely. Edsall's debut will be a successful one, as O'Brien will be the best quarterback on the field.

Miami Hurricanes at Maryland Terrapins: What Bettors Need To Know

Miami Hurricanes at Maryland Terrapins (-4, 46.5)

THE STORY: Miami will be without six starters and two reserves when it opens at Maryland on Monday. Quarterback Jacory Harris, linebacker Sean Spence, wideout Travis Benjamin and five others were suspended by the NCAA from one to six games for receiving impermissible benefits from former booster/convicted felon Nevin Shapiro.

The investigation has overshadowed the Miami coaching debut of Al Golden, formerly of Temple, and the Maryland coaching debut of Randy Edsall, formerly of UConn. With the senior Harris ineligible, dual-threat sophomore Stephen Morris will start at quarterback. Morris, who runs a 4.6 forty, nearly beat out Harris in camp.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, ESPN. LINE: Maryland -4

ABOUT MARYLAND (2010: 9-4, 5-3 ACC): Edsall has a ton of offensive talent to work with, led by QB Danny O’Brien (2,438 yards, 22 TDs, 8 INTs), and RBs Davin Meggett (720 yards) and D.J. Adams (11 TDs). The Terps ranked second in the ACC in scoring last season (32.2 points) and should be near the top again. LB Kenny Tate leads seven returning starters on defense.

ABOUT MIAMI (2010: 7-6, 5-3 ACC): Harris and Morris split first-string reps during camp. Morris played extensively at the end of last season, throwing for 1,240 yards in six games with seven touchdowns and nine interceptions. Due to the suspensions, Golden is listing eight true freshmen and five redshirt freshmen on his two-deep depth chart.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Edsall finished 8-5 or better in his last four seasons at UConn.

2. Miami's suspended players are not allowed to travel to the game but can continue practicing with the team.

3. Miami won last year’s meeting 26-20 in Coral Gables, Fla., on a last-minute TD throw from Morris.

TRENDS

The Hurricanes are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 conference games and 1-5 ATS in their last six games overall.

The Terrapins are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games overall and 7-2 ATS in their last nine home games.

The under is 6-1-1 in the 'Canes' last eight games.

LINE MOVEMENT

Oddsmakers opened this game with the visiting Hurricanes favored by 6 to 5.5 points. The game was taken off the board following the news of Miami's player suspensions. Oddsmakers re-opened with the Terrapins favored by 3.5 points and most shops have moved up to Maryland -4.

BANG THE BOOK

Monday's Best CFB Bet

Miami Hurricanes at Maryland Terrapins (-4, 46.5)

The Miami Hurricanes have had themselves one heck of an offseason. They hope to put all of that aside when they take to the field for the first time on Labor Day night against the Maryland Terrapins.

Regardless of what ends up coming from this whole situation with boosters giving improper benefits to players on the team, it is clear that Head Coach Al Golden has his work cut out for him here at “The U.” Miami has never been known as a squeaky clean program, and this is just the latest problem. Whether it ends up being QB Jacory Harris or QB Stephen Morris under center on Monday night, the Hurricanes are still going to be in some trouble. Neither one played well last season, and both definitely have their points of contention this year. Instead, the pressure is going to shift onto the Miami defense, which vows to make a return to the defenses of old from “The U,” which featured stars like Vince Wilfork, Ed Reed, Phillip Buchanon, Jonathan Vilma, DJ Williams, and the likes. This unit did rank No. 3 in the land in pass defense last season at 150.5 yards per game allowed, but this is largely thanks to the relatively weak ACC passing games and a paper thin out of conference schedule, save for the trip to the Ohio State Buckeyes. The potential is there, but the off the field problems could be too much for this team to overcome.

Many tend to forget that this is a new look for the Terps as well coming into this one. Head Coach Randy Edsall called it a “dream come true” to be coaching in College Park, a move which many thought was a fairly lateral one from the Connecticut Huskies in the offseason. Still, the Terrapins definitely have some talent out there on the field, and a lot of it has a ton of experience. QB Danny O’Brien might not have WR Torrey Smith to throw the ball to anymore, but there is no doubt that his experience from last year could pay off in a big way. He had 22 TDs against just eight picks, and he threw for 2,438 yards while splitting time with QB Jamarr Robinson. If O’Brien can find a receiver to pick up the slack from Smith’s departure to the pros, Maryland could once again be a dangerous team this year. Most don’t remember that this was a team that was right there on the verge of playing for the ACC Championship last season, and there was no shame whatsoever in its 9-4 mark, including a bowl victory over the East Carolina Pirates.

Miami Hurricanes @ Maryland Terrapins Pick: Is the wrong team favored in this one? Miami definitely has some decent returning talent, but all of these problems off the field just seem to be making this team like a circus. It’s going to be a madhouse in Maryland for sure on Monday night for a standalone, nationally televised game. We fully expect to see the hosts come out on top.

PICK: Maryland

MLB NEWS AND NOTES
Brewers, Cardinals Square Off In St. Louis

Milwaukee Brewers at St. Louis Cardinals (-120, 9)

The Milwaukee Brewers visit the St. Louis Cardinals in the opener of a three-game series on Monday, as the National League Central rivals square off for the last time this year. The Brewers just lost three straight to the Cardinals at home last week and have dropped four in a row in the season series after winning seven of the previous eight meetings.

Milwaukee had won 12 of 15 road games heading into Sunday’s series finale at Houston after winning the first two games against the Astros by identical 8-2 scores.

Starting pitcher Randy Wolf (11-9, 3.58 ERA) got hammered by St. Louis last time out on Wednesday as a 130 MLB odds favorite, surrendering six runs and seven hits – including three homers – in five innings of an 8-3 loss.

Wolf had gone 5-0 in his previous six starts for the Brewers, who won each of those games. However, only two of those games were on the road, where he has gone 4-6 in 14 starts with a 3.70 ERA. He pitched well in earning a road victory against the Cardinals on August 10, allowing just one run and five hits in eight innings of a 5-1 win.

St. Louis will counter with veteran Jake Westbrook (11-7, 4.72) and has won each of his last three starts. Westbrook has made three of his last four starts on the road, losing only once during that stretch at Pittsburgh on August 15. He gave up five runs and nine hits to the Pirates in 5 2/3 innings of a 6-2 loss.

Westbrook has not fared well at home this year with a 3-4 mark and 5.96 ERA in 13 starts. He was on the winning end of the 8-3 win against Wolf and Milwaukee on the road last Wednesday as a 120 underdog, allowing two earned runs and eight hits in five innings with no walks and one strikeout.

The Brewers won two of three at Busch Stadium in their last trip there in the middle of August with the ‘under’ going 2-0-1. The ‘over went 2-1 when the teams met again last week in Milwaukee and has cashed in the past two games between them with 23 total runs scored.

The Cards will be continuing a nine-game homestand after hosting Cincinnati over the weekend while the Brewers wrap up a six-game home trip in St. Louis after visiting Houston. Even though Milwaukee has been playing much better away from home lately, the team remained under .500 at 33-38 heading into Sunday.

The Brewers are the lone division leader to have a losing road record, but they also have the best home record in baseball.

Game time is scheduled for 4:15 p.m. (ET). The weather forecast for St. Louis on Monday calls for a high temperature of 75 degrees under sunny skies after isolated thunderstorms pass through the area on Sunday.

Monday’s Streaking And Slumping Starting Pitchers

STREAKING

Doug Fister (6-13, 3.26 ERA), Detroit Tigers

Fister is proving to be a nice pick-up from the Mariners. He’s gone at least seven innings in four of his six starts with the Tigers and owns a tidy 0.83 ERA and a minuscule 0.73 WHIP (walks + hits per inning) over his last three starts.

Javier Vazquez (8-11, 4.42 ERA), Florida Marlins

Funny to think this veteran hurler would contemplate retirement when he’s pitching this well. Vazquez held the Mets scoreless over seven innings in his last outing, extending his quality start streak to four games.

SLUMPING

Randy Wolf (11-9, 3.58), Milwaukee Brewers

Seems like it’s been one good start and then one bad one from the Wolfman. The Brewers lefty starter gave up six runs on seven hits and three home runs against the Cardinals last week.

It marks the third time in his last six outings he’s been tagged for five or more runs. Oddly enough the under is still 7-3 in his last 10 starts.

Anthony Vasquez (1-1, 11.57 ERA), Seattle Mariners

There’s not much to tell about Anthony Vasquez. He stinks and so do the M’s. Vasquez has only two career starts, both over the last two weeks, and both times he gave up a lot of runs.

Monday’s Best MLB Bets

Milwaukee Brewers at St. Louis Cardinals (-120, 9)

One sign of a legitimate playoff contending team is its ability to bounce back. Right now the Brewers are showing everybody exactly what they’re made of.

After suffering a three-game sweep at home to the second-place Cardinals, the Brewers rebounded to hammer the terrible Houston Astros in three straight. St. Louis, meanwhile, just dropped two out of three to Cincinnati, making this home series with the Brew Crew that much more important.

Now the Cardinals barely have any margin for error, sitting 9.5 games back of Milwaukee. The Brewers aren’t letting the playoff race get to them – they dressed up in cowboy attire for their flight out of Houston to St. Louis.

"It's not about staying loose for the Cardinals," left fielder Ryan Braun said. "It's just staying loose in general. By this time in the season everything has been the same for months. Same routine, same travel, same collared shirt. It's a good time to mix things up a little."

We like the makeup of this group of jokers.

PICK: Milwaukee


Seattle Mariners at Los Angeles Angels (-280, 7.5)

The Los Angeles Angels head into this series with a huge opportunity to make up some ground on the AL West-leading Texas Rangers. They head into Monday’s action 3.5 games back of the Rangers after winning their rubber match with the Twins on Sunday.

Joel Pineiro picked up his first win in almost two months and Bobby Abreu homered as the Angels dropped the Twins 4-1 to keep pace with the Rangers, who picked up another win against Boston.

The Mariners have won just 17 of their last 53 games overall and should be heavy underdogs throughout this series, so if you’re looking for an Angels bet, you’re going to have to pay for it.

We don’t mind high prices every now and then, but this chalk is out of the question. With the struggling Anthony Vasquez sharing the hill with Dan Haren, we’ll hop on the over.

PICK: Over

CFL NEWS AND NOTES

Eskimos Visit Calgary Stampeders In CFL Battle

Edmonton Eskimos at Calgary Stampeders (-8.5, 48)

The CFL's Labour Day Weekend slate ends Monday afternoon in Calgary where the Stampeders host the Edmonton Eskimos in the first of back-to-back's between the two top squads in the West Division.

Early odds for the contest have the Stampeders big 9-point favorites with 47½ for the total.

Calgary (6-2 straight up, 5-3 against the spread) should come into this game with plenty of rest and flying high off a 38-31 win at home over Montreal last Saturday. The Stampeders spotted the Alouettes a 10-1 lead in the first quarter before rallying in the victory, their fourth straight since a loss to these Eskimos.

Henry Burris connected on 26 of his 42 aerials for 422 yards and three scores, and broke a 31-31 tie late in the final quarter with a 6-yard touchdown scramble. Two of his TD passes were hauled in by Johnny Forzani.

Burris, who topped the 40,000-yard mark for his career in the win, is just two yards behind Montreal's Anthony Calvillo in passing yards this season with 2,462. The 12-year veteran out of Temple has a 13:5 touchdown-to-interception ratio and is rekindling memories of a remarkable 2008 campaign.

The win kept the Stampeders a game ahead of Edmonton (5-3 SU, 4-4 ATS) in the West Division with the defeat dropping the Alouettes two games behind Winnipeg in the East.

Edmonton stumbles into this matchup off a bye week that was preceded by three consecutive defeats following a 5-0 start to the 2011 campaign. Scoring has been the Eskimos' biggest bugaboo in the losing skid, totaling just 21 points in the three defeats, the most recent an embarrassing 36-1 showing at home against the BC Lions in Week 8.

Monday's tilt is the second meeting between the clubs this year with the Eskimos winning 24-19 as 3-point CFL odds underdogs in Week 4. That victory snapped a 6-game losing streak for Edmonton in this series.

Calgary will have to find a way to pressure Eskimos quarterback Ricky Ray in this contest. The Stampeders only got to Ray one time in that first meeting.

Fred Stamps, who hauled in five of Ray's 12 completions for 161 yards and two scores in that win, won't present a problem for Calgary in this one. The slotback is expected to miss another couple of weeks with an abdominal injury.

Edmonton will also be without a key member of the offensive line as center Aaron Fiacconi (shoulder) is out for the rest of the season. The Eskimos recently added former 1st-round pick Dylan Steenbergen in a trade from Montreal to offset Fiacconi's absence, and they expect to have Gord Hinse back for this game as well.

Calgary is listing linebacker Daren Stone (biceps) as questionable for Monday's game. The Stampeders are also still without kicker Rob Maver (quad), though Rene Paredes has filled in nicely for him since Maver went out in the season opener. Paredes booted three field goals in last week's win, the last from 46 yards out.

The 9-point spread seems a little high on first glance when you look at two teams separated by just a game in the standings. But there's very little to like about the Eskimos in this one with an offensive line being reworked and their top receiver Stamps out of action.

The clubs played in this same scheduling spot last season with the Stampeders rolling to a 52-5 victory, and followed that up with a 36-20 win in Edmonton the next week.

By the way, the new 2012 calendars are out featuring the Calgary Outriders cheer/dance gals. Click here for a look at that, and never again say we don't have all your bases covered at Don Best. There must not be a single tattoo parlour in Calgary, either that or, well, back to football.

Kickoff this week from McMahon Stadium is 4:30 p.m. (ET) with TSN providing coverage as usual. The clubs will have very little time off before reconvening Friday (Sept. 9) at Edmonton's Commonwealth Stadium for Week 11 CFL action.
