Wow...what a close game....both teams were kinda a let down. Hopefully they turn more exciting as the year goes on. I did take New Orleans on 4 out of 5 tickets to cover.....the other ticket I avoided it....so still ln the money....YAYYYYYYYY!!!!!

**sillywilly** · 09-10-2010 06:18 PM

i always play under on nationally televised games for the first 3 weeks. i find the D is way ahead of the offense this early in the system

**fundonny** · 09-10-2010 06:50 PM

My 10 dollar proline will pay 10G. It's coming. I can feel it!

**fundonny** · 09-11-2010 02:14 PM

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NFL RED ZONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Christmas in September!!!!!!!!!!!

**Chambokl** · 09-12-2010 10:33 AM

Donny... is this with Bell. Can you get the NFL Red Zone by itself... I see it is channel 449... I have been asking Bell for this... if you can get it by itself what is the cost?

Thanks...

**fundonny** · 09-12-2010 10:54 AM

Ya you can get it by itself, $50. HD is 1500.

Pros are wagering on SF, Bal, Car and GB big time.

**Chambokl** · 09-12-2010 01:05 PM

Thanks Donny... just got it... Yahoo....

Shocking to see the Colts lose a regular season game with their starters in.

**nokids** · 09-12-2010 07:33 PM

when Vick isn't killing puppies, i cheer for him.

The lions got screwed today big time!

**mpare** · 09-12-2010 08:30 PM

The Patriots looked great today. Brady was throwing beautifully and Welker has returned to form after last season's serious injury. Best of all, the defensive backfield for the Pats is fast and agile.

I don't care what the reason was... that was an awful call.... it will be free for all against the receiver... the DB now knows they have an extra 10 sec after the catch to knock the ball loose.... ridiculous...

**mpare** · 09-13-2010 05:46 AM

I thought it was a touchdown as well, but as I posted elsewhere the coach for the Lions didn't:

"Lions coach Jim Schwartz said the officials got it right.

"The rule is if you're going to the ground in the process of making the catch you need to finish with the football," he said. "He didn't finish with the football. He was (aware) he was trying to come down with it, he had one hand to keep it away from the other guy, he is trying to get his feet down and go to a knee it wasn't like he was trying to flip it to the official or anything. That's what it is." "

That rule needs changing as RB's only need to cross the plain of the goal line they if they lose the ball so what they got their TD. He clearly had posession of that ball.

Thats a golf rule for sure.

Stupid IMO

no doubt it was the "correct" call however, common sense would dictate that it was a touchdown. The rule is ridiculous.

**Sakuraba** · 09-13-2010 11:25 AM

stop hating on my undefeated Bears.

**mpare** · 09-13-2010 12:23 PM

I agree with you 100%. The receiver's possession and control of that ball were obvious. I say change that silly rule.

**Chambokl** · 09-13-2010 06:19 PM

Hey Mike... I know you played football and it was easy to see that was a TD...

Jim Schwartz said that the official got it right... I think that is very bad for his leadership... he didn't have to criticize the referee but still you have to give a confidence boost to your players... He could had said something like I know we did beat the Bears.... and Calvin made an incredible catch... great throw by Hill...

As a coach I think he missed the opportunity to back his players...

**nokids** · 09-13-2010 10:40 PM

Thank you Baltimore for bringing the Jets back to reality.

**mpare** · 09-14-2010 05:19 AM

I agree with you.

**Shushu** · 09-16-2010 09:45 AM

Hmmmmm...looks like there could be some nice calls for Proline this weekend. With the early lines I like

PATS over JETS -1.5 (JETS offence is terrible)
KC over CLE -1.5 (KC DEF looked unreal over SD....CLE isn't even a bad SD)
PHI over DET -5.5 (Even with Mike VIC in....Stafford is out....Philli should roll over them
ATL over ARZ -7.0 (ARZ is no PIT...........)
and I'll even take Buf over GB +13.5 (Ryan Grant out for the season... and BUF has a pretty good Pass DEF....good enough to cover)

Maybe:
CIN to cover over BAL +2.5 (BAL has a short week off of a violent game)
Pit to cover over TEN +5.5 (PIT is kind of being under rated because of Dixon...who performed fine)
NO to cover over SF -5.5 (SF should bounce back....but NO is to strong)

**mpare** · 09-16-2010 09:55 AM

I'll be amazed if the Pats don't easily beat that spread. Darrelle Revis, the Jets' cornerback, will have fueled Randy Moss' focus by calling him a slouch. My bet is that Moss gets at least 2 TDs by burning Revis. With Welker healthy and Moss fired up the Jets are going to have their hads full. Besides that, the Patriots' defence has improved greatly since last year.

**Shushu** · 09-16-2010 10:05 AM

Im still not a 100% believer in the PATS. Yes they had their way with a very unprepared and undisciplined CIN team, but I'm not ready to say their ready to destroy all. I just say they'll cover -1.5.

The game that I want to see is Giants at Colts......I think that is going to be a shoot out. I see @ least 70 points combined.

Oh...and I think the giants will cover the -5.5

**Shushu** · 09-16-2010 10:07 AM

HAHA...just saw this post. Funny.

Not to sure they'll be undefeated after week 2. GOOOOOOO COWBOYS!!!!!!!

I never suggested that they will "destroy all", but I do think that they're much better than last year and certainly better than the Jets. What their record will be as at the end of the year, I have no idea.

Peter King picked my 49ers to beat the Saints this week, plus G Bay to destroy Buffalo which is my survivor pool pick.

Go Pete go!

**nokids** · 09-16-2010 01:51 PM

has anyone ever won pointspread by picking 12 games correctly? $2 wins $2,000!

i used to play these suicide tickets every week last year and i think the best week i had was 8/12 picks, which gives me nothing.

There's a reason that casinos in Vegas have gold walls and ceilings...LOL. You have no chance.

**fundonny** · 09-16-2010 04:08 PM

Week 2 picks up on twitter. 8-7-1 on week 1, not very good. Pats are one of my top picks for sunday.

No way in hell. Lol proline actually took the game off the board today. Expect a -7 tomorrow for that game.
