What's a legit over/under number for Teddy's TDs?

It would be a big step up but I am guessing 19.5.

I'll go over

I would also, but trying to look at it from a non vikings fan perspective a jump of 6 TD passes is large. Also factor in the possibility of missing time due to injury.

Well it looks like Teddy's total TD passes this year vs last will drop by 14. Notice my injury disclaimer.

JC I want to confirm our $20 bet. If Seattle goes further in the playoffs than Arizona you win. If Arizona goes as far or further in the playoffs than Seattle I win. Please confirm.

I PMed him and posted here and posted in the general chat. Any bet I make I want to see confirmation in the board bet site saying yes we have a bet and accepting the exact terms. I proposed a bet to which he replied $20 and nothing else. I gave him a whole week to confirm and he didn't.

NO under 10.5
NYJ over 7.5
Indy over 9.5

(And it's probably a good thing Iowa doesn't have legalized gambling yet - I practiced betting 5 games with the spread last year from week 4 on and lost my ass)

ps - this thread was one from the bottom (ha ha, have to start over again, now)

Dallas over 8 1/2

Dallas won 10 games last year, and with Witten back and having Cooper from the start of the season, they will likely be better, and maybe Randall Cobb adds a little as well on the offensive side of the ball.

Very possible I'll be at that Dallas game. It's my brother in-law's favorite team and we talked about going to it no matter where it was before the site was determined - and it's in Big D; sigh

- Hope all is well with you, Marty!

KG, I haven't heard about your bets lately. Still hanging in there or did you take a hit?

They aren't board bets and I have slowed down my betting activity. Just stepping back and evaluating.

We'll take that as a yes.

I lost $100 on the Vikings Cowpukes and $50 on the Giants Lions. I then won a couple $50 bets that I forget what they were. The Vikings are a win/tie or a Lions loss/tie away from me winning another $650. My Futures bets on the Timberwolves are not looking good. I will probably lose a couple hundred on those. There's your full recap on my wagering action since you are so interested.

I'm doing OK.

Better to have people interested than not, no?

Seldom will I bet on the Vikings unless it's a $1 or added to a parlay with long shots.

yes it's nice to know people care.

However, bigo is IMO just being snarky like usual. I've done pretty well betting on the Vikings so far. Avoided some point spread losses and squeaked out some point spread wins. I'm going to place $50 on the Vikes against the Lions. I thought we were getting 1 point. We're getting 2.5. I changed the bet to $100.

BigO just calls them as he sees them - it's not personal, imo

I think KC -430 v. Den. on the moneyline to win $100 is a safer bet. I could never trust myself to bet on MN, especially points

bigo is snarky. I kind of like that about him. Ask him is he's snarky. I think he will admit it.
As for what's a safer bet it depends on how you look at it. Risking $430 to win $100 it's likely you win, but not so safe as you could lose $430.

Id suck if everyone is the same.

Like our bets, we are going at it from what seems like different ends. Which is great ... if we keep winning

Board Bets are one poster making a bet against another poster, however, I have bet $100 each on the Vikings winning the division which is at +295 and the Vikings winning 10 Games which is +160. I could have bet on the Vikings winning 9 games, but that was -130.

Just checking to see if i got this right: You're concerned you might be taking a liberty with a thread that's used twice a year, but still used for bets, but because you think it's funny you adamantly believe it's ok to change someone's post?

Yes. Changing a post would be wrong if you don't make the I Fixed it for You disclaimer. When you do that it is OBVIOUSLY a joke and it can be funny.
