Not exactly a lock in the end :P

What a fucking game.

This will go down in history as one of the best BP4L lock threads ever.

It was so fucking close.

Made me have several heart attacks.

Aren't LOCKS suppose to be a little less stressful than that ???

Another Boneprone Lock of the Year!!

Wheew..

Had to work for that one.

Ok, where is my drink now?

Indeed........

Yes they are..

That was close...... Way too close...

But the money will spend the same.

$20,000.00

congrats, I didn't bet the farm but I got a bail of hay out of it

Yeah, when I handicap something as a lock at the track you may as well not even bet the race... its a sure thing and no one makes money better favorites. This was a holy shit that was close type of thing.

Thanks..Daddy's getting a new pair of snake skin boots!

Man, you live on the edge ;-)

thanks bp

Congrats man

BP: This was my first Civil War game as an Oregon resident and all I can say is....

Wow, you people are nuts up here.....

Good game and congrats!

2 of the 3 locks I have seen you post you have won maybe I should bet the next one :/

So what's the over/under on how long it will take Boneprone to lose today's winnings betting on this weekend's NFL games?

Sunday 3:15pm

NFL LOCK of the WEEK! Saints over TB

Take the Saints -3 This going to be a blow out. Saints 34 TB 16

Man, I think reading this thread was better than actually watching the game.

My thoughts exactly.
Congrats to the winners ;)

This is an intense thread....glad you won :thumbsup

thanks for the lock bp, i threw a dime on it... i owe u... cheers

I don't think it's wise to take advice like this from someone who is a fan of the team he's telling you to bet on. :2 cents:

Your opinion may be just a tad biased :winkwink:

while that may be true..... The Saints will kick the shit out of TB tomorrow :thumbsup

3:00 am here. just stubling in from a long fun night out celebrating.

what a night..

Ill have to do some nfl tomorrow.

Time for sleep!

eh right? So the spread moved AWAY from you and you went bargin hunting at smaller bookies taking -4.5 while all big ones still had -1? I can't believe you beeing that stupid so I'm assuming you didn't place that bet...

Maybe you can go bet on horse races now boneprone... YOu gotta let it riiiiiide!! :thumbsup

Yep. I had to..

I dont have any sportsbooks that will take 22k in action.

Have to spread it across several. The max for one of my larger ones is 9 dimes.

NOrmally i dont bet this big so I can put it all in one book no problem. But I had to bet the farm on this one. And no book will take that much action from me so i had to use several books yesterday.

I had to take what I could get. I didnt get -4.5 I said I moved the line to -4.5 after my bet!

Ive never been able to move a line single handed. I assume I was the one who did it.

Will be a fun game to watch thats for sure!

Go Saints!

I woke up too late from celebrating last night and didnt get any bets in for the morning NFL games..

Shit..

right, I got you wrong with the -4.5, that would have been extremly stupid.. I can't really believe a small bookie would move it that far though, would leave them open to extreme risk..

$10k is my max but getting that down with one book is normally no problem as long as the game isn't circled.. to bad you're not betting with pinnacle as as you could get down $22 with no problems..

Im going to need some more magic and luck with this Bangles game.

Doesnt look too good.

I got bangles plus 7...

So like I was saying......

Niice work BP... Great thread it was like reliving the drama all over again.

I won 50 bucks :thumbsup

Go Beavers!!!!!!!!!!!

I got my emerald bowl tickets :)


Emerald Bowl reaction
December 2nd, 2007

The story in Monday’s GT breaks down how the selection process went. Basically, the Sun Bowl people know fans don’t want to go to El Paso two years in a row.

Athletic director Bob De Carolis was said to be very upset about the situation, but coach Mike Riley talked him down. De Carolis was calmly miffed when he talked with the media Sunday night. Many of the players and Riley took it well, but some weren’t happy because Oregon goes to the third-place bowl and Beavers are going to the fourth-place bowl.

“It’s only in their mind and people’s minds,” Riley said of people being upset the Ducks going to a high-ranking bowl game. “We are definitely third place and we definitely beat Oregon. We are looking forward to playing Maryland. It’s a good opponent. It doesn’t matter. It’s a great matchup. The Sun Bowl wouldn’t be any better than Maryland.”

The players were thrilled about this. They wanted to avoid El Paso like the plague. Here are some reactions:

“It would have been nice to go back to the Sun Bowl,” C Kyle DeVan said. “It is the No. 3 bowl and we finished third. However, we’re going to a new bowl and getting a new experience is better for our team. And we’ve already dabbled in that city.”

“There wasn’t anything to do there,” RB Yvenson Bernard said. “It was boring. It was. I would have taken the (Las) Vegas Bowl over the Sun Bowl, but the Emerald Bowl is a better bowl that Vegas.”

Here are some points to clear up about bowl season.
+ The Emerald Bowl is the fourth-place bowl this year. Las Vegas is fifth. They switch every year.
+ The Beavers are not hit financially going to the Emerald Bowl instead of the Sun Bowl. All bowl money is put in a pool and divided evenly among the Pac-10. The big financial loss was Arizona State not making a BCS game.
+ Other than attracting the Rodgers brothers, who are from near Houston, there’s little recruiting draw going to the Sun Bowl. The Bay Area is a hotbed for OSU recruiting.
