Home Forums Sports Picks Central Bet The House POD 3/9

Big weekend of action begins today...<P>I asked yesterday for people to put why they are posting the game as their POD.<P>Let's be realistic folks... You see your friend and you say hey tonight my lock is Pizzapie University -7 over Bakersfield<P>Your friend isn't going to go run and bet Pizzapie U, he will say why is it your lock of the night, what makes you think they will win....<P>Some of you put great writeups to state your case.... Win or lose that's what people are looking for. We are all in this together, you don't need to write a book, just something that stuck out to make it your POD.<P>Facts and figures are keys to success, we hold the key to beating the man, don't leave the keys in the door for the man to walk in your door..... LOCK him out !!!!!<P>

Hello everyone,<P>Freak wants us to explain our bets. Ok! I bet againsyt the Grizzlies because they are simply bad. They are so bad that the other teams don't take them seriously and sometimes the Grizzlies cover by accident. Lock bet of the day is Portland. I don't know what the line is right now and how it may fluctuate tomorrow but Portland will not be stunned twice. Not by the Albanian tourists disguised as NBA players in a uniform with a bear at the front....

NEW YORK 1.5

the pistons -5.5

iowa st -11

WISCONSIN+2.5

BC -5.5<P>So what SHU beat an overated Georgetown team that shot 28%, make me a believer....

Kent St -4

Boston Celtics -8.5

Demon Decons will do no dunkin' tonight<BR>Terps will roll!! Already whipped Wake by 10 at home and by 16 on the road. Maryland will complete the trifecta tonight.<BR>Give me Maryland -2.5

new york knicks

NCAA<BR>Maryland -3 @Margarita

Syracuse -5<BR>Orangemen looking to make the Big East finals put an exclamation point tonight against Pitt. Hopefully they won't blow 17 pt lead like last game against Providence.

Temple (-7 1/2) over George Washington<P>The key to beating Temple is having good shooters that can knock down the 3-point shot over the Owls' zone defense. George Washington is not a great 3-point shooting team as they made just 32% of their 3-point shots this season and only 29% of them away from home. George Washington lost their two games to Temple by an average of 18.5 points.

Florida -6.5 (Carib)

I'm going to go with Philadelphia -13 over Atlanta tonight.<P>76ers are 6-0 ATS last 6 gms.vs the Hawks<BR>76ers are 8-1-n/l last 10 vs the Hawks<P>The Hawks are too old. The 76ers will run then ragged tonight.They'll be running on fumes at the end of the 3rd quarter. Mutombo will have a big nite tonight. Kucoc won't.<P>Woops- game already started. sorry.<BR>Boy--I'll pick another one in the next post.<p>[This message has been edited by cisco (edited 03-09-2001).]
