Superbowl 2010

Who are your picks?   Looks like we are running on natural grass im Miami Stadium.
Colts have the experience where Saints have a bag of mixed vegetables in their arsenal.  Im giving the Colts a 7 point advantage for experience and a 7-14 point advantage for Saints projected mistakes/turnovers and being under pressure...  im thinking Colts win by 14-28 points running a negative 1 effort and the Saints I would give around a 3 effort.   Colts win in my opinion, 35-20!

Saints look to be on an 0-2-X pattern. Put it to the wood on the over (57)

More interest for me in the halftime show than the game.

Indy the likely winner on pattern and # power but they don\'t have to cover the 5 or 5.5.Value in taking New Orleans + the points but not on the moneyline IMO.

No clue on the total but it seems like the whole world is on the OVER.

Which is why the UNDER is the play.

1st half UNDER 28.5, Game total UNDER 57

I agree. Saints and under the play. Everyone I know loves Colts and over. Not sure why. Most of their games this year played in the 20\'s.

Just received one of the worst beats of my life in the San Antonio. I keyed Dakota Phone over the 3,4,5,6, and 8 in $40 exactas and reversed for $10.

If Gomez doesn\'t get through (or if Mike Smith doesn\'t let him through) what\'s 34-1 over 18-1 pay? Gomez now goes in my books as my biggest PITA. He also goes in my books as the best I have ever seen. I thought for sure RK was prepping for Dubai.

Now I watch a sport that pays 4-5 after 3 hours of agony!!!


Good Luck,
Joe B.

when everyone says over, i agree on under, colts 30-13

[P-Dub]

1st half under 28.5 was nice. 56.5 looking pretty good now too.

Got Saints +4.5 so hopefully they can hang close and it will be a nice 3-0 day. Good game so far, should be a great second half.

A Weekend in the Life of the \"Professional Horseplayer\":

a) Colts 35-20.

b) Kiss the Kid to defeat Quality Road.

c) (Worst of all) Redboarded a show bet in a 5 horse field.

TGJB, I\'ve always admired your support of free speech on this board, and I\'ve
been one of the major beneficiaries.

The problem with free speech is that sometimes you get what you pay for.

richiebeeeeeee...

sup homey?   ok look...  first off.. i didnt wager the superbowl.. and if its worth anything to ya i wouldve had the \"under\" correct  =) .  second i wagered $20 across the board on an initial THIRTY FIVE to ONE Kiss The Kid AND that $20 WPS was part of the profit from a freak race that happened over in NY.  I played $100 with the idea of getting a huge ROI JUST IN CASE something happened and if not i felt it was safe enough to still make a few dollars at worst.. it worked out and whatever.  I usually play $500 or $1000 to show on a horse a few times a week as a \"professional\" and my 7 horse at santa anita from the Robbie Lewis stakes that i was going to play is now next week due to the \"water bucket affair\".
 
My intent was to only play that ROTW due to nice value and since that got cancelled I only played a few dollars this weekend staying over my familys home for a few days on the laptop with my online account. My mother just had surgery on her cervix a few days ago and I went to visit her and relax the weekend.  
Plus, Im off to vegas in a week and il probably not see them for a while..so i have plenty of handicapping and wagering to do really soon.  

btw, i have rooms at the Harrahs total rewards casinos comped til April, 5 times a week, so il be living it up out there and eventually get a place on my own.  Il also be using my laptop over there to order thorograph online since no one in person sells them...so feel free to come visit if ur ever in town.. we can \"redboard\" the thorograph board together  =)

NYC:

I hope your Mom makes a full recovery.

I know 5 people from NYC who moved to LV; they all love it, swore they would
never come back East, and they never have. The real estate market is apparently a
bit soft, so you should be able to find some good value.

I ran pretty evenly this weekend, but could have done some real damage if Prado
could have kept Take the Points straight at GP on Saturday. Some weekend for
Pletcher, who won with QR, got taken down with TTP, and should have won Sunday\'s
GP feature with Interactif, who seemed to pull himself up upon making the lead
near the wire.

Thanks for the Vegas invite, though I get major claustrophobia in Hotels, so I\'ll
wait til you get settled in your permanent digs. I am a very easy guest-- I need
a separate sleeping room for my wife or goumada, and I like the dark Heinekens
chilled at about 40F.

laissez les bon temps roulet, breaux.

[nyc1347]

Thanks.  

I think Interactif will be a great turf horse this year.  That breeders cup trip last year was terrible.  I dunno what happened at GP today but its only time til he settles into a nice flow and runs well.  

Il def be on here posting and it be great to see anyone who uses the thoros out there. I have a few lady friends that will be visitng me from Cali so the seperate rooms will be a good idea =)  i have a feeling im going to be drinking a LOT out there but NOT when i wager!  that belvedere with sprite or grand marnier straight up is just too delicious to pass up!

P-dub, killin it.

Let\'s hope the momentum carries over to the ponies this weekend. By my count, 23 stakes races across the nation.
