official super bowl XXXIX thread

OMG, you cannot be serious! To win or just beat the spread, what is the spread now anyways like 6. I hope you win maing and philly too, but thats craaaaazy!

To win by 1 point. If philly wins I get 10 grand. If they lose I only lose $2,500.

im not sure i understand, your bet is that philly has to win by 1pt or that they have to win? if its just to win how in the hell are you finding a money line on the game thats paying you that much?

Is the superbowl today? I should do some shopping and avoid the traffic and massive droves of people who would normally be out.

What time is the game? This school doens't have a TV guide channel, so I never know what's on when. Oh, I should specify what time is the game in your time zone so I can convert. Thanks.

yeah, if philly wins I get 4 times what I bet. It doesnt ussually work like this but the bookie is a buddy of mine and he already owes me the money so I gave him a chance to win his money back but he had to give me these odds. Hes so sure that the Pats are gonna win so he accepted. But I had a friend of mine place a bet on the Pats for $2,500 so either way I win or come out even!

FUCK! I placed the bet on the pats without even knowing what the spread is! Im gonna find that out.

Last I heard it was like 6 or something, but it coulda changed. Pats will beat the spread fo sho any how.

The spread has sat around 7. Those are good odds on the Philly bet, but I'd still be pretty hesitant throwing down that kinda money against the Pats, but then again, I don't have it to spend anyway. I am leaning towards Philly to cover. At the very least I think it will be a good game.

you realize now you can lose both ends of your bets and be out 5k

 

[BrothaBill]

Did you say philly minus one to get the 10k but pats by 7. So if its pats by +2 to 6, you lose 5k?
