Default My 5 team college/NFL pix

I like playing the cards, I'm sure most of you either play them, or at least know of them. Not sure when they are printed or how they come up with the spreads. Last week I put 20 on a 5 teamer and hit for 300. Trying the same again this week. 2 college, 3 pro.

Penn St. @ Ohio St. (H) -17
W. Virginia -23 @ E. Carolina

Bengals -1 @ Steelers
Ravens -10 @ Browns
Jags +14 @ Colts

Pix are in bold.

Agree with most there, cept for one . Of course I'm taking the Steelers to beat the Bungles. I still needa try to find tickets, but CJ and that Housch guy did a lot of talkin this week and Joey Porters gonna be mad! Marvin needs to get the duct tape out and shut those guys up

Just curious where last weeks five team parlay was posted. Sounds like it was posted after the games. Doesn't do much for anyone.

Five team parlays are for suckers. Two teams is the max unless you like losing money.

Also, you are really wasting your money if you are doing more than two team parlays in the pros. That is like giving your money away. Almost as bad as people that bet teasers.


Lastly, where do you get your lines?

Jaguars are not getting 14 points, the line is 7. The Ravens are giving 6.5. Bengals are getting 2.

Those cards have crazy lines. They are way off. Open an account, cards are for suckers.

First of all, "Not sure when they are printed or how they come up with the spreads", pretty much means they are not vegas lines. you are correct, I did not post the 5 teamer I played. I was just sharing my good fortune w/ my Dt boys. I'm not claiming to be a guru or anything, I wouldn't want to steer anyone wrong. I did however post this well before the games.

Thats not what I played, but that was 5 teams I like that got er done. I have a bookie I can play whatever with, why would I open an account and let uncle sam see what I'm doing. Accounts are for suckers. You pretty much have to put up 150 to get 300 your way, I like 20 for 300 myself.

As a matter of fact, my bookie will give 2-1 on 3 team teasers, and if you know what you are doing, you can double up. Being a 10 year vet in fantasy football, you know a hell of a lot about players and what they do against whom. I am no guru, but I do know my sh1t when it comes to the NFL. Be-lee dat.

Hey 1st, I feel your luv for the Steelers. I just have a feeling that they are missing what they had last year. No Randle El, Parker is not a pound em back, no Bettis to plunge. Baconburger is not on form right now, evidence of Mon. night's play. Ward is a little off too, w/ the hammy. The D is still tough, but I feel that bengals run game will keep them on the field too long just like Jags did. BTW, don't bet on your squad, I paid for that week 1 taking the Cowboys.

Calling me a playboy? Far from it.
