    Default Just made my Bowl pick, with a little help.

    I was sitting here in windy costa rica at a bar playing with my Iphone when the best known bookmaker in these parts saddled up next to me in the Timeout lounge. He skipped the hello and just said Who you got? Took me a second but since it's all anyone here is talking about I figured he was asking aboutmy bowl pick. I told him I was taking the colts. He kind of lifted his hands as if he was going to signal a touchdown. He finally said John every square in the world is on Indy...no offense. None taken. f\*\*k it, I'm betting the Saints. I do now believe it is the sharp side.

    Huh. I took Indy at -5 but I am not a great NFL guy by any means.

    I took the saints on the money line bet, might be a far chance but I have a feeling this is the saints year. Hopefully Bree's delivers!

    I was actually in the same situation. The day after both teams won I went in and took the saints money line. Shortly after that I started to wonder If I bet too early and whether or not the money line would change drastically between then and the start of the game. So far i've seen it hover around +175 which is what I got it at, the highest I saw it at was at +180 from the places I checked.

    Any more expierenced money line betters think it'll change a lot more for the saints money line leading up to the start of the game?

    Colts will cover. This is why the line is so low.

    This cracks me up. When the match-up was first set, I was strongly leaning Saints. Now, I'm thinking that was wrong and the Colts roll. Who doesn't love 2 weeks between the championship games and the Superbowl? So much time to second guess.

    Remember John, sharps don't win every time...Sometimes the squares win. Would you rather win money or be "Sharp"?

    I would rather win.

    Besides NO being the sharp side my capping logic switching to the Saints + the points(would not touch the ML) is that NO can and will most likely keep it close. The 2 weeks to prepare favors NO. I don't see Indy building a big lead. NO will move the ball and score and if they fall behind can 2 minute drill their way to the backdoor.

    Rumor has it that Billy Walters just layed down 2 Million on Colts -4.

    just a thought, it wasnt $100 bettors moving the line from almost 6, too almost 4. if bw had bet indy, it wouldnt still be almost 4

    Take the Colts 2H...whatever the line is! They've been a 2H team all year!! Down 20-7 to Houston at half...ended up with 35! Down 31-14 4Q to the Pats and won! Down 17-13 to the Jets in the AFC Championship.....17-0 2H Indy! 56.5 is a ton of points for the NFL but I still like the Over here too! The Vikings TE was WIDE OPEN in the NFC Championship....look for Dallas Clark prop bets to hit too!!

    Guess you probably know who your picture is of? Tony Spilatro...the guy Joe Pesci played in the movie Casino! I knew his nephew...went to school with him in the 80s at Indiana! Heard some interesting mob stories from him!!

    Very reliable source. Also, Phil Ivey was his beard.
