Bar Stool Pundits week 3

[natedogg]

Gentlemen, I bring the latest hot picks from the BSPs.

The BSP record so far: 0-4-1. For those of us who are fading the Bar Stool, those are numbers we like to see.

This week there is one BSP pick that dwarfs all others.

Eagles -7.5 over Raiders Even on this board as of yesterday I did not see one single Raider pick in the 3+1 contest. That speaks volumes. There is simply no money coming in on the Raiders from what I can see, and I am from Oakland! And why should there be? The Eagles are a superbowl team, and the Raiders are helmed by a ex-drunkard behind a line of felons that draw penalties every other play.

In other thread there were some many fine suggestions for BSP fades, and all have merit, but the biggest standout after the Eagles is Carolina.

Carolina -3 at Miami Apparently in week 1 we witnessed the "fake" Miami and the "fake" Carolina. Week 2 showed us the "real" Miami and the "real" Carolina. The Bar Stool Pundits are convinced that the true world beaters head out for their first road game of season where they will suck on the morrow of Frerotte's femur to the dismay of what few hurricane survivors remain in Miami. This pick has further confirmation with a clean sweep by Yahoo's expert picks. Gotta love it.

Third place is still muddled. The Jags, Chiefs, Colts, and Seahawks are in strong contention with the BSPs. We'll see if a clear third place pick shakes out by Sunday.

For now, the very strong BSP plays for us faders are:

Raiders +7.5
Miami +3

As always, that looks freakin ugly to me but I don't pick 'em, I just report.

im conflicted, but since i already have a dime and a half on the home squad, i'll just go with the fish and hope for a bar stool split - gl [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Hmmm, interesting. I too thought Carolina -3 was a good pick. I might just be one of the BSPs myself. Of course, I'm new to this whole thing so this is quite possible.

Going to put 1 unit on the Raiders though. I'm getting +8 on Bodog.

Is Colts -13.5 not a BSP pick?

I'm asking because THE BROWNS SUCK PEYTON WILL KILL THEM DUDE!!!!!!

Great report!

Your avatar fits nicely with someone keenly intune to the BSPs!

Good stuff as always, natedogg.

I really see the Colts as a strong BSP pick as well. Maybe there's more money on the Browns than expected that I'm not hearing about, but everyone's public opinion that I've been able to see is strongly on the Colts to demolish Cleveland.

Love the thread natedogg, keep em coming.

I love these plays Nate, please for the sake of all Sports Betting forum avid readers I implore of you:

Please don't stop drinking!

p.s. Are you getting this "information" from one local bar, or from a couple of different places you frequent? I go to a local hole in the wall place out here in Cleveland, and I think I'm going to stop in tonite just to put my ear to the ground and see what this group likes.

If we dropped the homer picks, would cross-referencing strengthen their value?
