Hate to do this but...

I am going to post it anyway. Seems like every time I try this it backfires.

Sorry to any ATL backers but all of the value today lies with the ahem, ahem, Pirates. The Pirates road stats are virtually identical to the Braves home stats and I know, I know, Tim Hudson is the better pitcher, but the Bucs are 3-0 in McDonald's last 3 starts. I also like that Atlanta played a late game last night and had a tough loss. (Thanks Keith). Pittsburgh has played all the top teams tough this year and I just think -180 or more is way too much to lay against them in this spot, so I like the Bucs +160 or so and I think this line comes down by game time. A nice dog parlay with the Tigers looks good too.

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

Thanks Bobby, Tin, Keith and Lord. Got off to a nice start with San Diego but those guys are like somebody else packing your parachute, you can never be sure til the feet hit the ground. I got 'em with the Bucs and the Tigers.....and lots of crossed fingers.

BTW the Bucs went up to +170 when got it in so maybe I'm wrong about the line. Don't know, don't care.

Thanks guys. So far so good but watching this team makes me wonder how you can bet on them. They just keep scratching and clawing. Not too many cigar games with these guys.
