[SECTION 11]

Seems like a bad idea to take that bet, doesn't it? But you know you want to do it. So take the bet, Mr Cards by three in OT.

It's a generous offer. Take it.

 

[Jttsaz]

14 points is a lot of points...the Vegas line is at 11.5..but still it's hard to gauge this one...I would say pass on this one...week one always has some crazy games...

 

[spanky1]

Anything higher than Vegas betting lines is a good bet. Do it. You can always say your fingers were crossed.

See if you can pry out 17 points, and then go for it. Rams-Cards games have been close lately, but I wonder if Martz takes his foot off the gas pedal against Mac/Marmie. It'll take Marmie a year to ruin that defense.

bingo - if you can get 17 - take it - but we're gonna lose by at least 14.

Get him to do even better on the Patriots game now - and take that.

 

[Capital Card]

Since I gave up betting on the Cardinals, it's much easier to watch the games.

That said, it's a lot of points, and I think Denny is going to break out every trick play in the book to try and win this game.

If you've got the money to lose, why the heck not risk it.

Go Cards!!!

 

[Red Fury]

I wouldn't take it, unless he gives you some odds to go with the points.

Now you're onto something...

 

[40yearfan]

I never bet on the Cardinals as it is most certainly the kiss of death for that game.

 

[Redheart]

Give me the money and I will kick you in the nads...

Net effect = same.

Exactly! What's $100 to a guy like Section? Chump change.

 

[Jersey Girl]

I like the up-him-to-17 idea. If not, I'd pass.

 

[Lex]

A double digit point spread early in the year should be enough to take the bet.

Add in a crazy like a fox head coach in his first game, after he has shown you NOTHING to prepare for in the preseason, and free beer should be in order.

 

[earthsci]

Try to get him to give you 50. That would be pretty safe.

I don't say that because I think that the Cards suck. It's just that everytime that I bet (especially on the Cards) it's like a jinx.

 

[Mulli]

Cards suck.

That is not nice.

If he is so sure of a win - give him the Rams + 3 and take 4 to 1 odds. Test him.

I've won over $400 off him betting on the Cards. I don't do it often, but when I do, I win.

Muahahahhaaaaa....

Why would you ask that question on this board??


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