Cards +14 vs Rams. $100. Should I do it?

[SECTION 11]

Why would you ask that question on this board??


I think you have already made up your mind!!!!

Oh believe me, I'm waffling.

 

[Card Trader]

Wait for SWD's prediction and go the exact opposite. That theory would have made you a rich rich man last year.

If you need more assurance - their coach vs. our coach.

Rams last game against the Raiders:

Rams coach Mike Martz said he thought his team trailed by only three points in the waning seconds, so he called for a sideline pattern with 9 seconds left to set up a field goal, instead of going for the end zone on the next-to-last play of the game.

"I can't believe I was yelling for a field goal," he said. "That was the dumbest thing I've ever done as a football coach."

You should have made the poll question read:

Yeah, go ahead and make the bet, it's not my money.

A guy I work with is talking football with some guys. I walk around the corner and he ambushes me asking me are the Cards my team? Do I wanna make a bet? I said yeah, I bet ya a soda. (I don't bet big on the Cards) He starts showing out in front of these guys. A soda! At least bet me $5, they're you're team right?( I might have 5 or 10 bets(working in St. Louis) so I wanna keep individual bets small.) I said, the point spread is 10 1/2 pts. His reply, SO! Bet me $5 straight up. I said, I'll tell ya what, I'll bet you $100 and you give me 10-1 odds! Come on you ain't scared, you KNOW the Rams are gonna win right? Uh, he wasn't gonna take THAT bet! So today he starts again. So I say 8-1 odds, I'm runnn' a special just for you. So he says I'll give you 3 points! 3!!! I said 7 and he wouldn't do it! I read on here and read Sec 11 is gonna get 14? Man, I'd say take it, but it's not MY money so it's easy to say go for it. Better than I'm gettin' here.


"I can't believe I was yelling for a field goal," he said. "That was the dumbest thing I've ever done as a football coach."

P.S. Don't fall for this red herring from Martz. Come game time in regular season and you best bet he knows what the score is. Don't be fooled.

Hmmmm..... Waffles.

 

[Brevity]

I like saying "Ignoramous"... I vote no.

 

[PACardsFan]

Take the Cardinals with the points. I expect DG to leave the vanilla O behind. I'm taking the Rams in my suicide pool, but this game will be much closer than you think.

 

[CaptTurbo]

11 ask for 14.5 That way you win if the rams win by 14 (a common difference).

If he sticks to 14 take it. The odds makers are usually close but when it gets to be over 10 the odds makers are usually saying this team could lose by 200.

 

[SECTION 11]

Alrightie...

I got $50 on the Cards +14, and another $50 on the Cards to win outright.

 

[BuckeyeCardinal]

DG has too big of an ego for the Cards to get smoked.

I think we'll lose....but not by 14.

 

[CardLogic]

Alrightie...

I got $50 on the Cards +14, and another $50 on the Cards to win outright.

So what, the guy back out of $100 on Rams -14???

 

[jmt]

If you don't want it - I'll take it! It is usually a good bet to take any pro team with 14.

 

[Canuck Cardinal]

Take the bet... it's a lousy $100 bucks... green will do everything under the sun to prove to his players that they can win.... look for the cards to play high risk / high return football if this game gets into a shootout... onside kicks,, WR passes, etc. Dennis Green created the most wide open offense in the NFL.

He's not scared of the Ram defense... which sucks.... so he'll throw is playbook at the defnce to win.
