I say somewhat because I tend to start an account with 25 or 30 bucks in it and see what I can do. So, if I lose 37 bets in a row I might only be down 100 or 200 bucks. I don't know anything else someone else can do that they enjoy for a small amount of money that could end up costing them nothing. In a good scenario I had fun and made a little money. In a bad scenario I lost a couple hundred bucks over a few month time period. Thats a bar tab for anyone who enjoys the occasional club. Yet when you go out to a club and spend 200 bucks, you don't say I lost 200 bucks last night. Moving on.<br /><br />There's a few afternoon games that I like.<br />First off, I quantify teams in a few different ways.<br />1. Explosive<br />2. Scrappy<br />3a.Explosively-scrappy<br />3b.explosively -clean<br />3c. explosively-sloppy<br />4.sloppy<br />5.clean<br />6.fucking blow<br /><br />These definitions are definitely not static. They can and do change throughout the year. They're are also different degrees of each team characteristic.<br /><br />Anyway, I put a 3 team parlay on these<br />Buffalo @ vermont(-5.5)-scrappy vs explosively-scrappy<br />When two teams play scrappy just take the bigger/faster team. Buffalo wins both of those arguments. I'll take the doggy<br />marquette @ gtown(-3) -clean vs. scrappy<br />Its very hard to win on the road as a clean kind of team. Energy from home teams produces spurts. Takin the fav.<br />virginia @ nc state(-8)- clean vs. sloppy<br />Virginia plays a clean game but they also suck. Being that its hard to win when you suck and its also hard to win on the road as a clean team I really like NC State. Taking the fav.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35123994-9001699094418428470?l=jmparker.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>MrParkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04155922182563336193noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35123994.post-81745419181443213762009-02-21T12:00:00.004-05:002009-02-21T12:06:15.620-05:00Welcome,<br /><br />I fully expect to be blogging to myself. I am interested in all kinds of markets. The stock market is my number 1 passion. In a close 2nd is anything market related where there is a lot of information to be dissected. These markets mostly include gambling and sports drafts. Though I have recently been turned on to the market of record collecting(the vinyl kind). I have been known to have extreme success in markets but I have never been able to turn my "knowledge" into anything sustainable. This blog is being kept to further my attempt at that goal.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35123994-8174541918144321376?l=jmparker.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>MrParkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04155922182563336193noreply@blogger.com0
