Y'all sounding like Pete Rose..he never bet against the Reds 😂😂😂
I am not in the betting game when it comes to App. St. Just a personal superstition I guess..
I think people should bet all they want..it is your money...do with it what you will.. I just cannot bring myself to do it...
I was thinking about the same thing about Charlie hustle. Great minds think alike
For all the BS that has taken place in sports since his day

For God's sake reinstate Pete Rose.

And while you are at it do the same for Shoeless Joe Jackson too!

I would suggest all games but App. I don’t want players and coaches to see any betting for or against App.
Just curious, what is your thought process behind this? I could see the bet against for morale, which looks like everybody (at least so far) in this thread doesn't do.

John Sayles has made some great movies. Eight Men Out, Matewan, write the screenplay for Clan of the Cave Bear.

HBO Max has a good 4 part documentary on Pete Rose. I think it came out this year. I watched it a few weeks ago.

For important games, I like betting against the team I want to win. I need to figure what I'm comfortable losing to get an App win. $50? $100? I'm thinking $100 on ECU to win at +105 is what I'll do. Either make $105, or ideally come away with an App W.

I’ve always tell my daughter “I only gamble on myself playing golf, because it’s my fault if I lose”, unless someone catches a real heater.

Gambling on someone else is too risky for my blood.

I do like the slow and steady approach of the ML action. Especially, against the White Sox.

That’s a good sign. The public typically moves the line during the week and you always go against the public $.

Guess I should have placed it. Too close for comfort though!

I would not bet for us to lose and have to consciously root for the other team just to win some money. I don’t ever make large individual bets so it’s not a big deal for me. I’ve hit a few nice ones on Fan Duel but overall I’m at break even since this thing became legal.

They have offensive weapons all over the field. They would be a tough out but like all teams, they have weaknesses and soft spots that Arizona was able to take advantage of.

APP -1.5 now

My site is showing heavy action on the Apps. Not sure if it's ticket #'s or $$, yet the line drops.
Possibly the dreaded Reverse Line Movement trick. I went to the window anyway, they can't be right all the time.

In other games. I like the under in the Utah/Utah St game and Boston College +16.5 against the Fighting Drinkwitz’s.
