So Who You Got?

I spent the morning at South Point, where Broncos fans outnumbered Panthers about ten to one. At the Four Queens party, it was about 70-30. Lots of late Broncos money.
DonDiego got 7-out-of-12 "propositions" correct in the pool at his SuperBowl Party, . . . good enough for 2nd place:
__Denver - +5½
__Total Under - 45½
__First Score - FieldGoal/Safety
__First Turnover - Fumble
__Last Team to Score - Denver
__Last Score - Touchdown
__Number of Fumbles - Over 1½

Unfortunately it was a winner-take-all pool.

This game was less about the officials than almost any game I watched this year. That was refreshing.

So other games you felt deflated?

Might be more impressive had you posted your choices before the game ended.


does anyone know why the money started pouring in late on the Broncos?

Betting syndicates will try to shift the line one way during a week and will then bet the hell out of the other side (simultaneous bets at the sports books) when game time comes close. I'm guessing that or betters felt the line shifted too much and they were not willing to lay that many points.

Indeed !

DonDiego's not posting to impress anybody; he doesn't care if anyone believes him or not. As usual.

Heckfire ! 5 of those propositions are just for fun anyway, pure luck to pick 'em right or wrong. And if he'd've had any confidence in the side and the total bets he'd've added a stop in Vegas to his Appalachia-to-SanDiego flights to put down some bucks.

12 people participated in the pool for $1 each, . . . pr'bly no one anyone on LVA knows. It's all jes' for fun.

I'm glad to see Peyton go out a winner, he seems like a class act. His final completion on the two point conversion won me some money.
Speaking of class acts,I just want to thank the good Dr for enriching the bookies.


The two point conversion won you money? Might be more impressive had you posted your bet slip before the game ended.
