I am not taking any bets, it seems to close to call for me. I am only saying talk of a blowout is probably nonsense.

If I were still in Vegas, I would probably be once again looking at prop bets. Although I doubt the Vikings turn the ball over on their first possession, it would be worth taking a $50 shot on it, assuming the odds are once again close to 15/1.

I would also bet on a couple of WRs to score a TD. I would pick one on each team. Either Hock or KJ for the Vikes, would probably go with Hock. It would be tempting to pick Addison, as Addison has hit every time, but I think the Pack will put Alexander on him, and they will probably get away with a non call of PI on him more than once.

For the Pack I would go with Dobbs scoring a TD.

Bets you would make. Fascinating. Tell me more.

Addison was +$260 on a $100 bet to score a TD.

Need to keep the Monday's momentum rolling today and stick it to the Packers. A loss would be absolutely embarrassing. Skol!

Those Love numbers surprised me, I hope the Vikings can seize the moment and beat the Packers at Lambeau.

It would be nice to see Kirk get an early lead, if up by a TD, I want to see Kirk throw darts and lead the way to a 2 TD lead, or more.

I thought I explained it earlier, I will explain it to Bill once again, he might be a little slow.

I was staying at Harrah's in Vegas, and was looking at prop bets before the 49er/Vikings game. I liked the bet of the Vikings to turn the ball over on their first possession ($100 paid $1500), and I liked Addison and Kittle to score.

Harrah's has a small sportsbook and all the spots were reserved, so I went to watch the game at South Point casino, which is about 20 minutes south of there.

On the way to South Point, I decided to nix the idea of betting on the WRs to score, and decided I would just bet $100 on the Vikings to turn the ball over on their first drive.

I got to the counter at South Point, and discovered they don't do prop bets, just bets on the teams and the over/unders. With the Strip being torn up for F1, I didn't think I had enough time to make it back to Harrah's to place any prop bets before the game started.

If someone wants to bet me a player won't score, I want odds on it, it's not a straight up bet, even if you're betting a player that scores often.

I predicted Hock and Daubs would score TDs in this game, and was correct on both of them.

Bill wanted to be a wise guy because I misspelled Doubs, but he knew the player I meant, and I was right about Dobbs scoring. Bill owes me thousands of dollars, times what the odds were on Doubs getting a TD, probably about 3-1, I tried to get 6-1 out of Bill because he isn't very smart, is only a smart ass.

So, Bill owes me about $8000 to $12000 dollars in virtual money.
