shdw01 preseason picks thread

[shdw01]

I don't bet preseason too much....just figure I post them here in case anyone cares. I understand there is a huge difference in capping (coaching decisions and bench performance). FWIW, I might decide to play most of these games on the half only.


8/8/08:
Minnesota Vikings -3

8/9/08:
Washington Redskins -3.5
Houston Texans -3
Miami Dolphins -2

(Holy shit, all favs....stay away boys)

 

[shdw01]

I'm not big on writeups....esp pre-season games....but I'm so excited for football I can't resist

Seattle seahawks are the worst traveling team in all of football....especially when they go at least 2 time zones east. I frequently fade them on east coast trips so not sure why today should be different.

Washington Redskins is probably a 1st half play only. Zorn has been saying in his press conferences that he wants to see how Colt Brennan (2008 ROY) will do against higher calibur defenses. Jason Campbell looked very good in the HOF game and I think he will get the job done. Biggest difference is that instead of Collins taking over 2nd half (he seems to be struggling in the Zorn offense) we will get to see some Colt to close out the half....(zorn also said he wants to see colt run the 2 min drill....so look for CB5 to try and score to close out the half)

Miami is really a homer play for me....I figure TB is a little disturbed with all the Favre media attention they got.

 

[shdw01]

Holy shit, I think I went 0-3 (1 push)


okay, I think I'm gonna be lowering my preseason betting to near nothing!

FWIW,

8/14 Steelers +1
8/15 Titans -4.5
8/16 Rams -3

Hey man, it's PreS. I know you'll do alright come gametime yo. GET EMMMM.

 

[shdw01]

preseason is a shot in the dark for most....

it has become obvious to me that seattle is gonna be an awesome preseason team cause seneca is out there to score some pts

 

[Jetplane]

We'll get to see when he lines up against the Bears. Bears either layed down vs KC on defense or... they let a subpar team score on them. If either is the case this week--Seattle wins by 17+. GET EM.

 

[shdw01]

Adding:

8/16 Seattle pk


Seriously, I am without a doubt the best fade on therx right now.... 0-5 on preseason.

if you aren't fading the rams and seahawks, you should stop gambling on preseason (yes, that means me)

 

[Jetplane]

Seahawks covered though... and they probably will cover again.

 

[shdw01]

Adding:

8/16 KC -2


just to recap.

8/16:
KC-2
Seattle pk
Rams -3

Already 0-5......fade away!

 

[shdw01]

hno:hno:hno:

0-7......Seattle just lost their lead and I might go 0-8.....someone listening to me (fading) better give me some kickback....I need to eat

 

[shdw01]

1-7....got the come from behind victory for my first win. I still think my preseason plays are great fade material

 

[shdw01]

YTD: 1-7 (12.5%)

you guys should be fading these cause I'm hitting a preseason clip of 87.5% for faders. Since this is still preseason, I don't want to adjust how I'm picking these. In fact, I'm not sure I'll even play them....just posting for the faders!


8/21: Bears -3 (-120)
8/22: Broncos -3
8/23: Redskins +2
8/23: Dolphins -3

 

[Jetplane]

Say it ain't so for the Skins' I'm opposite of bears.

 

[Jetplane]

you'll go 2-2 man, I KNOW IT!!! GET EM!!

 

[shdw01]

you'll go 2-2 man, I KNOW IT!!! GET EM!!

ahhh...one can only dream.....lol

nah, i'm not playing them so I actually hope they go 0-4. I dont know enough about coaching decisions and depth charts and practice squad battles to make good decisions on the preseason. Just doing what i've been doing and hope it loses.....gonna start backing these plays once we hit week 1.

FWIW, if there is any play that i'm sure will lose....i'd have to go with the bears pick..

BOL

shdw01 I meet all your cousins in Vegas.

Sam Boyds I'm told advertises big on the Islands and you guys were there in force.

I had a teriyaki plate lunch,all you can eat sushi and a bowl of saimin.

Now tell your boys not to roll bones there as I had $5 on the pass line and backed odds on the point of 6 with $20 and they said double odds only............WTF

Like my brother said why venture downtown to play only double odds.

Binnions had 10X steer them there................LOL

 

[Jetplane]

YAY BEARS LOSE!!!! >

BadCo> DOUBLE ODDS? Wow.

People that live in Hawaii LOVE to go to vegas. I'm not sure if there is some degenerative chemical in the water here or if it is simply because we have no casinos/reservations that we can drive to. (no lotteries too)

Sam Boyds was the only casino smart enough to realize that and really built a nice niche here. California is the main casino that all the locals here always frequent. Personally, I don't want to be drunk off my ass grabbing a tranny hooker's ass and realize my aunty is accross the casino watching me in all my glory. So I end up staying on the strip most of the time, even though the lower limit tables in downtown are great for small ballers like me.

About the food...that is another thing that gets me.....I don't want to go on vacation and eat something I'd eat for lunch on a normal work day. But I guess some peole like to have that home feeling when on vacation....

When you gonna stop by the islands Badco.....I'll pick up a van and start loading it with surfboards, scuba gear, and baby strollers! lol...

Well I ran the kick Azz Hawaii Vacation.com by my family while we were there and they were not buying it.

I thought we could start a family business as my mom and brother have all the money.

I think it's a money maker,heres how i explained it to them.

We start the excursion off at the waterfall off the Pali highway where we cliff dive/jump and give a crash course in wearing and breathing your mask and snorkel.

Then we head off to Nanakuli(they start laughing an talking about security guards)yes Nanakuli has a great reef went there all the time even as a tourist.

Here is where we snorkel and sling or fish.

From there we head to the north shore to Wiema Bay to jump off the rock and if a sand bar do some body surfing.

Then go further north to Turtle Bay where the snorkeling gets even better as sea turtles are a trip to view as they are fast as lightning.

Then we head around Chinamans Hat for Makupuu where we get thrashed riding the waves on the boogie boards.

Then we go check out Sandy's just to show the tourist what getting thrashed is all about and check out the girls but is dangerous to the novice,enter at you own risk.

Then we end our day at Kapiolani Park where we have a fish fry with all the fish we spaeared that day an those still wanting to boogie board can go across the street and surf the wall.

The Kapiolani park venue as I explained to them is where my kids and their cousins bring the potential clients they solicited that day to come and eat some fish talk to the end of day clients and sign up for the next day.

Anyone who goes for a day at the beach with Kick Azz Hawaii Vacations will sleep good that night.

I'm three years away from a pension so we shall see.

The main problem is it only appeals to young adult males.

Gonna try and make it in Oct.
