The EOG Octagon: RAILBIRD v RAININTHREES (Round 2)

[railbird]

Thanks for the kind words, NUT6.

JK, I'm good with same rules as this month for January.

 

[railbird]

And since you're better at the written word than I am, you can explain the rules to FACTS.

Given FACTS and Viejo's reading comprehension skills are suspect, they have less chance of getting confused if you explain the rules to them.

And since your better at written word than i am you can explain them to facts, who him and viejo reading competence is suspect, and they have a less chance of getting confused if you explain the rules to them.

Did you really have a community college degree?

Trump won because of the less educated......he absolutely crushed with those who never got a degree

 

[parlaynow]

Good run by both contestants...

[parlaynow]

Let the games/wagers/bets begin.

Awesome EOG thread*

 

[fifty cint]

Great job by both guys.

Congrats!

 

[Heim]

. Contestants will post selections using pointspreads from the following establishments: CRIS, Pinnacle, BetDSI, Westgate and William Hill.

Since you can't play anything over -10 why not just go with books that just adjust the number not the vig like Westgate (sharp book) and Hill (square book). If it's a handicapping contest why add any shopping element plus easier to monitor a valid line.

 

[John Kelly]

Interesting point, Heim.

Let me think about a possible rule change (Translation: Consult ComptrBob for the right answer).

 

[THE FACTSMAN]

i think its silly to post plays where the guy posting the line dont even bet there
and 90% of the guys following the picks dont have every out.

i will post lines from bookmaker only
most people play there or have access to.

just my thoughts.

 

[railbird]

westgate is the best book.

 

[railbird]

the rules are fine as is

 

[railbird]

have anybody leeching plays off me the last 2 months had a problem getting down on my numbers? lets hear it?

No. Steak dinner on me next time you're in Vegas.

I can’t seem to get into your local out....

Tell your boyfriend to stop trying to promote his sheet, stop whining and take his beating.

 

[Viejo Dinosaur]

You are 0-4 vs FACTS.....you only beat up on senior citizens at polling venues....

 

[FairWarning]

Good job guys, some strong capping in this thread.

 

[Jammer]

The undercard is over, time for the heavyweights to get in the ring and battle it out!

Factsman is a coin flipper, rain3s is better

 

[MrTop]

I would like to know the ages of these fighters. Factsman been training at Mayweather's gym with tight security. Mayweather coming out of retirement to bet this bout.

Do your thing, FACTS.

RAILBIRD 20-10

RAININTHREES 14-13-1 (Two plays outstanding)

 

[John Kelly]

Threes needs OVER 43 in SNF and OVER 52 in tomorrow's Sun Bowl.

 

[railbird]

519 Louisville +3 -110 Westgate

this was a seton hall fade, saw them 3 times in Fullerton they looked worse each time, they were champs. just goes to show champions can and often suck, champs or not. media doesn't get this

 

[railbird]

Final score: Fresno State 19 Boise State 16 (OT).

Documented winner.

fresno is better than notredame, went 11-1 ats in 2017, best ats team in cfb last 2 yrs, a prop school like nmsu and usu in hoop like kyle smith says in his podcast

 

[railbird]

John, you can go ahead and PayPal the 500, same address as last time.

Do u really believe your own shit? Of course it was a SH fade...they played 3 games in 4 days on the West coast then had Louisville waiting when they got home. How about wins versus Kentucky, St John's and Maryland this month...they covered all three. Does that impress you much?

 

[John Kelly]

Eager to see HEIM v BIRDIE in EOG's Octagon.

not impressed, Kentucky and stjohns are overrated, Maryland was 11 days off for them. they remain overrated. well coached teams will deal with powell, like slu and neb. im fading them going forward.

stjohns and set hall both will regress during conf play.

One at a time, Birdie, one at a time.

[John Kelly]

First thing tomorrow morning, Birdie.

 

[John Kelly]

In fact, I will post a new thread tonight at midnight ET.

It's the right thing to do.

 

[parlaynow]

January 1 used to offer the greatest bowl game of the year.

In 2019, not so much..
