    Default Chargers/Pats ML Parlay

    Thinking of being a degenerate and jamming my $900 roll on Chargers/Pats ML parlay. It pays $300. Both teams are 10-0 vs Bills/Raiders last 10. Chargers are known for their epic fails but I just can't see either of them losing tonight. Thoughts?

    Wagering $900 to win $300 on a parlay? Do you really want an answer to this?

    Yes I know it's a stupid bet but I'm a degenerate who likes action.

    If you like action then how about betting $10 to win $300 on the ML of the underdogs.

    True Homer, but I highly doubt either will win. I'm 95% sure both will win, just looking for some reassurance or someone to really talk me out of it.

    If the Chargers were at home then -10 would sound good but when they are playing in the black hole it scares me! I am playing the same parlay but will be drinking heavy...Like you said the Chargers always have those epic fails! I will throw the dice anyway! I am sure someone out here will give you a better motivational speech on who wins! Good Luck for both of us. lol

    Haha yeah I know. The Raiders stink but yeah the Chargers scare me still. Both should cruise to fairly easy victories but you never know. I will definitely be drinking heavily as well if I go through with this. GL to you sir.

    Good point Manny. I have lost some redic bets. Betting $750 to win $100 on College BB etc. I will really have to think this one through before pulling the trigger. Betting $1200 to win $150 on Tennis, lol barely won that.

    I have a parlay on Patriots and Chargers -7 at the half. If you're doing a parlay tonight I think this is best one.

    I'm think the Raiders keep it very close and I would pick the outright upset if Jeff Garcia was starting for the Raiders. Be careful on this one. Chargers have been slow starters lately. A lot of talent on the Oakland defense. Kirk Morrison and Thomas Howard are studs and extremley underrated at LB. They may be able to slow LDT a bit. Plus, we all know Asomugha will take away one side of the field for Rivers.

    On the 1st half bet, the Raiders were beating SD 15-0 at the half last year in Oakland. Just sayin..

    I'm talking straight up here, not covering. I could see the Raiders covering the spread, but straight up?

    You bet $1200 to win $100?? Are you handicapped or something? With so many variables in winning a game let alone a 2 game par how is there any value in this? Believe me I understand having action on a game and the feeling like you MUST bet but why not play a par with the underdogs and bet small and win big if they hit.

    No I made the mistake of gambling with credit online and had to get to a certain level each week or I had to settle up. I learned my lesson from this trust me. 1-3 odds are a lot better than 1-12 lol. Now I just gamble with my own money. I started with $11 on this poker/gambling site and built it up to $900. So the way I see it if I lose I'm losing $11. I can afford to lose the $900 it's not life or death for me. I am a sick bastard, I swear I get off on lows as well as highs. I'm just a huge degenerate with plenty of money to burn.

    how quickly we forget the Pico -1200 ml on USC vs Oregon State that seamed an even safer bet and we all know how that turned out.

    LOL yeah I should just do that you're right. Jam on Raiders/Bills parlay. There is 0% hope that hits though lol, I need at least some false hope.

    I've come to my senses guys. As good as this looks it's just a stupid bet, and I promised myself I wouldn't do mental bets like this again. I am however looking at a $100 parlay of Chargers/Pats ML and some Super Totals of Over 40.5 in NE/BUF and Over 36.5 in SD/OAK game. Any thoughts on the totals? I figure NE/BUF should easily go over, but I'm not so sure of the other game. Anyways $100 pays about $250 so it's a decent bet to do and will cover my needed action on MNF.

    Pats and Chargers have each won eleven straight against their tonights opponents...

    But as they say in mutual funds, past performance is not an indication of future performance!

    BOL with whatever you bet!!
