You might be able to buy HB studios if they win twice more.... |

Should be able to at least buy shares! I told you they had a chance Chad! I just hope the Chiefs get through tonight because with the greatest respect, for us neutrals I'm not sure the Titans Texans looks a particularly interesting match up. Mahomes against that Defense and Henry running riot again though, sounds like fun!
As a Dolphins fan, I'm really pleased for Ryan Tannehill

Of course, it might help if the Chiefs receivers would try catching the bleedin' ball!

I've snowballed quite a bit of monies during the regular season.
I thought it'd be fun to bet on underdogs because that's where I make good money, but also lose quite a bit.
I hit a straight bet on TEN over NE and also hit a 3-teamer on TEN and MIN straight with SEA -1.
I rolled a substantial amount of that onto TEN over BAL.
I proceeded to roll the entire wad on KC -9.5 earlier.
No bet for GB/SEA because it felt trappy.
I have a substantial amount on Clemson tomorrow at +185.
I say substantial on those because I'm not out here playing for "a few bucks" or even "hundreds".
I know this isn't a gambling thread, but I can't believe my luck this year.
I have a SB future in on KC/GB at 25-1.
I was SO close to 75K last year off KC winning AFC Championship.
I've had a KC future in for SB at 13-1.
I've liked a KC/SF match-up for awhile.
I also plan on losing my ass next year.
My luck comes in spurts and not just with football.
I make a nice job out of gambling, but it's getting hard.
Goodell pisses me off and so does the scripted NFL.
I've lost countless games by 1/2 point where it would've crushed some bookies.
The year of the dog has been quite nice.
Back to the normality of losses on betting and playing more poker games for me!
I summed it up to my GF with a simple sentence...
I have no regard for money.

Some of my more reasonable stuff is just P2P with a lawyer friend I have in Tennessee. I hit Vegas about 5 times a year and some always gets booked there as well. |

All I can do as a Vikings fan is tip my hat to the Niners.. what a phenomenal team they have (some of that I blame the Vikings offense but we'll get into that later). Please go beat the piss out of the Pack now.
It's been obvious for about 5 years now the O-line needs the most work. That's been the story every year. The problem is the Kirk Cousins opportunity came at a bad time for the Vikings and they fell right into it. Coming off a 13-3 year and a spot in the NFC Championship game with a backup QB... who wouldn't go all in for him? Given the Vikings' situation at the time, it was too good to pass up. The dude posted huge numbers every year on a terrible football team and of course the thought was that he would do even better with the weapons the Vikings had at their disposal. He has been good but the other areas of the team have regressed. The defense is a shell of what it once was and the coaching staff has been making questionable decisions and play calling...
Which brings me to my next point... WHY THE HELL DID CLEVELAND HIRE STEPHANSKI??? What has he done to deserve a head coach job??? The Vikings had a decent year offensively but they should be elite with the weapons they have. His play calling is conservative and predictable and he only had ONE full season as an OC. Surely there were better options. I mean as a Vikings fan, whatever, they can have him, there's fantastic options for the Vikings now at OC. Jason Garrett would be huge and I could see it happening because Zimmer and Garrett coached together in Dallas. Internally, Gary Kubiak would be a great fit if he wants the job.
Edit: Thinking about it more, either Garrett or Kubiak would make a heck of a lot of sense because the Vikings could really use an offensive coordinator with NFL head coaching experience. Zimmer being the defensive guru he is puts a ton of responsibility on the offensive coordinator to really run the show on that side of the ball, more so than many other head coaches. Having a guy who can handle and run with that kind of level of leadership is a necessity for this team

Sports gambling is legal now across the USA. Do you not have the William Hill app available there? We've had it here for years before the nationwide legalization. I thought everyone would have access to it by now. Cash betting, screw the bitcoin stuff. |

I live in an area that looks down on anything "non-biblical" and refers to my preference as "Devil's Lettuce". The fees don't bother me much as I don't let my coins sit. They come right out as cash. BTC is getting hit and is too volatile for me to keep it sitting there. I will have to look into this more for sure. |

This is shaping up to be an incredible super bowl. Both teams have exhibited their dominance throughout the playoffs and this really is the clash of the titans (no pun intended. Sorry Titans..) it’s really anyone’s guess how this game is gonna go.
Kansas City really benefited from Baltimore pooping the bed in the divisional round. Tennessee made a storybook run but just ran out of steam after beating two very good teams on the road. So tough to do it for the third time especially when you’ve relied on a running back for both wins... Henry had to have been hurting during that game and just didn’t have much left.

Mahomes was magnificent yesterday, and I saw one Tweet that said having Tyreek Hill was like playing a cheat code on Madden! 49ers defense was also magnificent but even with Rodgers that Packers offense has nowhere near the threat the Chiefs have. Both teams also good on the other side of the ball. It's the best two teams in the big show in my opinion, can't wait! I'm sticking with the Chiefs and Mahomes to get it done when it matters.

Ah well, was a good run. Thought Titans did a pretty good job of not giving kc any short fields, but Mahomes just played flawless. Kid is that good.
Not that I think Titans would've won anyway but the reffing was a bit shady. The last pi was a joke but the game was done. It was the holding call on the 3rd and 1 earlier that was the dagger. On the replay (and theres a still frame shot out there if anyone really cares) the side judge is already pulling the flag as the ball is snapped...but whatever I've seen enough nfl to expect these things.
