sdsponger's NFL, College Football & MLB Picks

[sdsponger]

I'll be posting my NFL, College Football and MLB plays here. Unlike some US tipsters and touts, I actually bet on all of my picks. I've been doing this for a while and take my capping and all of my picks very seriously.

I've been posting all my plays in the respective individual threads, but thought this would make things a little easier for more people to follow. I will only be posting my actual plays in this thread though, and will continue to post my analysis and write-ups in the individual threads. I'll go back through my posted TDP plays and post my ytd records a bit later for those interested.

I like RC's thread, nice and organized. So, if you don't mind buddy, can I copy your basic format?

Good stuff Spondger and im sure RC won't mind.

You've been pwning all American sports since you got here. Long may it continue

GL with this SD

Thanks daikoku

I'm not going to do a fake bank with returns and all that. I'm just gonna post my plays (everything I post I will actually bet for real) and apply a confidence level to each play. I'll stick with a 1/10 - 10/10 scale like most of you guys use, with 1/10 being my smallest plays and 10/10 being my big plays. Here we go

MLB ALCS Game 1: Detroit @ Oakland
Bet 1: A's @ -135 (5/10)
Bet 2: Small single on the A's -1.5 @ +150 (2/10)

[daikoku]

Following you on the A's with 3 units SD

[edinlichtie]

Good luck SD, i'll keep a beady eye on this thread!

[Grga]

Good luck SD.
May the curse of MickeyPaul bypass this thread.

[sdsponger]

Shit Grga...hopefully this is a one day curse

Zito continues to have a rough time at home...he's sucked tonight and I think my bet has jinxed my team

5-0 already...damn

No more betting on my team for me. I'd rather see 'em get to and win the series than win $$$ on 'em.

I will not be betting on my A's again in the post-season. Sorry to all who followed, not the way I wanted to start this thread

MLB Post-Season YTD Record: 0W, 2L

MLB Post-Season 10/12
Bet 3: Mets @ -170 (7/10)
Bet 4: Mets -1.5 @ +115 (4/10)

College Football 10/12
Bet 5: Virginia Tech -2.5 @ -115 (2/10) I'm letting this one ride, but for anyone thinking about taking it, I'd suggest leaving it alone. VA Tech will be w/o 2 starting WRs tonight, one because of being arrested this morning.

Bet 6: Colorado State +6 @ -115 (5/10)

My feeling about leaving VA Tech alone was right...they looked bad tonight.

3-1 tonight
