MARCH MADNESS

[trouble]

yeah thats cool.

Looks like I lost xavier and Ucla huh?

2 for 4

Hell man dont feel bad. I have been trying to pick them for over 30 years now and still cant get it right. Always remember thats why they call it gambling!

I will pull the lines for tonights games off Vegas.com before the tip-off like you suggested.

One quick question for you G-Bud? Can I use any line from the different sportbooks that they has listed? For example: if I want a dog thats getting 4 points at the MGM and 5 points at the Hilton can I pick which line I want?

Take care,

you average it out...........say if the mgm and stardust have it -4.5 but the hilton has it -4 than we go 4.5 because 2 out of three casinos have the viable line that day as a stronger underdog

sometimes it changes by the hour,so when you lock in.....get the average across the board and you can PM me or post it here.
I'll PM you my picks but tonight the ball is in your court

God I miss the NFL....I went almost 70% ATS this year

 

[geminibud]

UCLA by a point....ughhhh!

the killer at the end,cost me 55$ for that point........was hoping for at least a push but I'm only crying a little lol,down 10$ overall so not that bad

I'm on the same page with you now! At the moment I'm leaning towards the favorites, however, let me take one more look at the current lines and I will post my picks here.

I try to stay away from the NFL. I have done well on College football for years now and got sick of giving my Saturday winnings back to the bookies on Sunday with the Pro's. Before cell phones came out I would even make plans to be out on the golf course or miles out in the Gulf fishing on Sunday's so I wouldnt be around a phone to call in bets when I got weak! Thats the only way I could stay ahead if I was having a lucky run!


I will post my picks in a few minutes.

11:30am EST.

Here are my picks all favorites again. I almost took Mich.St. and the points and the only reason I'm taking Texas is because they are playing in Houston and there should be alot of Burnt Orange in the stands.


Kansas -12 1/2
Wisconsin -5
Texas -2
Memphis -5

Nice being underdogs

Up by 30 at the half over the Big Ten powerhouse....just glad we haven't been blown out....

Still one half to go

Memphis 50 Michigan State 20

 

[amoS]

hoping for a UNC ... Davidson bracket in the Final Four..............Go HEELS!!!!

Carolina only beat Davidson by 4 in the season opener so I think it would be a great rematch!

 

[bagseed77]

dang davidson, them carolina boys can shoot the rock, my brackets are ugly but im still in it if the heels win it all.interesting talk on the gambling, im a born loser with bad frickin nerves so i stay away from money bets, have you ever been standing over a five foot put for a couple hundred bucks with no loot in your pocket and a big fucker with a golf club standing behind you, i learned my lesson.

 

[trichosaurus]

My elite 8 is in place except Davidson. Didnt see that one coming although I know they played UNC, Duke and some other big programs close early in the year. I am pulling for em over Kansas. UNC vs. UL tonight will be an instant classic. Two well-coached, fast, deep, talented teams battling should be fun. Hansborough vs. Padgett will be a great matchup. Then UCLA vs. Xavier in the West. I think Xavier should be able to pull this one out. Will be a fun day of basketball watching.

Elite 8

Elite 8

UCLA wasn't in my final four...so I'll be pulling for Xavier....
Hard to root for the UL Cards when you're a Memphis Tiger fan...but I'll say I think UNC will have their toughest challenge in the tourney to date...gonna be a good one....Louisville's on fire....they ripped through the Vols like a hurricane
Kansas has got too much size, strength, and speed for Davidson IMO....

Texas is everybody's favorite to win over my Memphis Tigers Sunday (no surprise with a home game)....I'm just hoping for a good game...they have a great team...we'll have to have a bit of luck to win

Feels good to be in the Elite 8 for the 3rd straight year...

GO TIGERS!!!

 

[bagseed77]

vt i saw you were fretting over the msu game, what a showing, i bet they were walking 10 fett off of beale, the heels had me on the edge of the seat in the second half last night, hansbrough showed why hes is the nations mvp last night. another day of killer hoops, GO DAVIDSON!!!

 

[-VT-]

Congrats UNC & UCLA

Congrats UNC & UCLA

Props to both schools, alum.....and their fans

I felt Michael Beasely was the best player...but you do have to consider WINNING, lol....and his 28 points last night was impressive....I just don't agree with folks who say he's better than Michael Jordan...better than MJ???? MJ and I are about the same age...so I'm biased, I suppose.....congrats to the Heels on making the Final Four

Texas is one helluva team....doesn't bother me that everyone thinks they'll rout us...only 'cause they have a home court advantage (75,000 Texas fans)....we can play loose and inspired...no one expects us to win...I just want my team (especially Dorsey) to play hard and compete...that's all I want...if we do that, we have a chance to win...

GO TIGERS!!!!

I agree, there will never be another MJ!

The Longhorns & Tigers are getting ready for tip-off!

Should be a great game!

heels in the final four again...

thats how we do it around here...

 

[the Rock]

hook em horns Texas all the way baby

 

[trichosaurus]

Kevin Love is a great player and may be a better college player than MJ. Jordan didnt really shine until he reached the NBA but there is no chance that Love will have the same results in the NBA as MJ.

Memphis has started out hot and now has a double digit lead over Texas. I think the Tigers will take care of business against UCLA too, they are just that good with a lot of NBA talent. Hopefully the final is between UNC and Memphis because that would be a great matchup. I would have to pull for UNC though, being a Middle Tenn. State alum. Always disliked the Tigers and cannot stand that cheating Calipari and WorldWideWes. But whichever team wins it certainly deserves it.

We're gointg to the Final Four

We're gointg to the Final Four

Up by 19 with 3:36 to go....it's all over, Longhorns Great team and great season....they should be proud of their team and their effort...but we're just too much, lol

We were just too much for Texas today

Been 23 years since the last one...and we're going back for our 3rd Final Four

Lookin' forward to a rematch with UCLA on a neutral court

 

[amoS]

Congrats UCLA ...Memphis and most of all to my HEELS!!!! .....maybe I'll pull for Kansas I don't really want to play Davidson again but if we do at least I,ll have a home state school in the finals no matter who won between the two......Peace
