I predicted HOU to win (no bets though) :(

Still, I figured that the game would boil down to the final drive (which is probably why I don't bet).
 
Two for two in picking the winners. Yeehaw!

I am on the Cowboys and Rams tomorrow. I am having regrets with my Rams pick lol

I flip flopped and took Detroit on my latest slips along with Dallas Buffalo and Philadelphia. After seeing The Browns road performance I took the safe home favorite on my parlays. Even threw in the Leafs tonight on a few big slips. But I really am just hoping Buffalo moves on and has a go at KC again. Must see matchup.

Yeah this 100%!

Edit - I see they're thinking of postponing the BUF/PIT game again. And that means that whoever wins, they might have to postpone their game next week as they will be at a big disadvantage against a better rested KC team. That's f***ed up man, I wonder how this will end up shaking out. I do NOT like the idea of KC getting an edge on the Bills, that's for damn sure.

I hardly ever bet on sports any more but I made an exception for OLG bonuses, too good to pass up so having some fun now with the NFL. I deposited 100, made some money on the bonuses, withdrew 100 and now whatever I have left is for fun. My balance is a lot healthier today as I bet a good chunk of what I had left on KC last night and if DAL covers and BUF wins, I'll win again on my 3 team parlay. I also made bets earlier for BUF/SF to win the conference as well as the title so if either team wins, I'll be happy!

I hate that are constantly promoting sports betting on TV as I know how addictive it can be. But I have to say, betting a bit here and there can definitely add a little bit of a thrill to watching the games. I would only say to everyone - only bet what you can afford to lose and do NOT think that you will come out ahead in the long run, only perhaps one out of a million people are smart enough to do that.

Go Cowboys!!

Well said Gary. Never let it get out of hand. It definitely adds to watching out of town games in the NHL and the NFL playoffs more exciting. But that old slogan they have " know your limit and play within it" couldn't be more solid advice. Like you said set aside what you're prepared to lose and don't get carried away. The way I look at it it's much healthier to sports bet a few hands of blackjack worth of money on a weekend than to go back to the casino days and risk ruin and going full dumbass. Keep things reasonable and fun and contribute to the province of Ontario if you lose.

I also noticed they dialed back the sports betting overload a bit. They must have listened to the complaints. Last season it was unbearable and I was doing it. They even had the money line listed on the Sportsnet hockey schedule but they took that away and stopped with the Cabbie betting advice videos that made me cringe. They realized it's a bit sleazy to push that stuff on the youngsters. But they seem to have much more serious problems tbh.

Good luck everyone 🤞

I'm thinking I should make a small bet on tonight's game, just for fun. I picked the Rams for may parlay that died with the CLE loss but now I'm thinking DET would be a smarter play. Any thoughts?

That’s a tough game to call, but I like the Lions. But I also like Miami..so there’s that
 
Playoff football on Mondays is wrong. The Bills game being moved for weather is one thing, but the scheduled game is an abomination.

If I could work my will, the three things I would change about sports...

1) Ban the shootout
2) Dome opened unless game would be unplayable otherwise
3) No weekday NFL playoff games

Monday is a holiday in the US.
 
Diehard Rams fan. I am going to be sick to my stomach if they lose to Goff and the Lions tonight. Lol.

I don’t care if they lose like 56-0 to the 9ers next week. I just want them to win tonight.
