All My Parlays Lost – Discouraged, but not giving up!

That is the parlay life. Got to be able to stomach the losses in between big wins.

Fenerbache/Virtus Bologna over 168 +170 for 1 unit. Taking my talents to Europe on this one. My Euro league betting record depends on this game.

100% boost on Draftkings risking 1.5 units to win 7.38 units – Sengun over 25 points/assists – Rockets over 114.5 – Ohio +8 and over 17.5 team total. Toledo is favored in this game. I do not think they should be. Ohio’s offense has looked great since their loss to rival Miami. Toledo are not bad, but I think Ohio will simply score more. Pacers cannot play interior defense well enough to stop Sengun. Should bang easy, especially if Jalen Green is out. He is questionable as of writing.

No sweat bet risking 2.5 units to win 18.79 units. Lillard 3 threes and 25 points. Fred VanVleet 18 points and 2 threes. Wagner 38PRA and Magic ML. Bulls and Pacers are not great at defense. Magic are better without Banchero. Wagner should takeover against Clippers. No Norman Powell for Clips, so I expect their bench to suffer. Watch Nic Batum go off now…

Giannis as my draftkings star of the night over 30 points -185 for 1 unit.

Charleston -10.5/Columbia -425 parlay risking 1 unit to win 1.35 units. LIU and Citadel suck at basketball. Favorites should roll in these spots.

Brandon Miller will be better than Anthony Edwards

I realize saying Brandon Miller will be better than Anthony Edwards is a hot take since Ant just dominated the defending champs, but B Miller is nice. Brandon Miller plays for the Hornets, who sucked because of injuries yet again. These injuries gave him a chance to be the focal piece of the offense at times. Brandon Miller shot better than Ant did his rookie year (numbers above), and he has a higher shooting ceiling (form and height).

My Hornets could keep sucking forever, but if LaMelo can ever be healthy and they can ever find a 5 that can play defense. They have something with Brandon Miller. Miller doesn’t have the “pop” athleticism that Ant has, but he does have the ability to hang in the air like Ant. I mean look at this dunk.

The Hornets rarely hit on lottery picks. Hell I wanted them to draft Scoot – maybe it’s just cause of the Miller-Alabama gun stuff – but boy was I wrong. Miller can play. I doubt the Hornets will hit on this year’s 6th pick. I think they should go with Salaun (6 foot 9 hardworking frenchmen), Topic (Tall guard if LaMelo doesn’t pan out), or Cody Williams (nba starter at least). If the Hornets can hit on this pick this year, they are actually setting up nicely. Davis Bertans, who won’t be resigned, is the second biggest cap hit right now after LaMelo. The Batum signing was terrbile. The Rozier/Hayward signings were not viewed as bad, but they kinda were. Rozier and Hayward got paid about 50 million a year combined on the Hornets and didn’t ever make the playoffs. Rozier and Hayward complained and said snide things about how shitty they Hornets culture was after they left – yeah yall were brought to make it better as veterans.

Brandon Miller may never be great because of the team that drafted him, but I think he can be a top 10 nba player and in MVP conversations on the Hornets. If that happens, Hornets fans (me) would love him forever.

MARCH. IS. HERE. BEST TIME OF YEAR AHHHHHHHHHH

46-38-1 last season 19/20 up 13.96 units

Scottie Scheffler winning the Players back 2 back washed away a lot of college basketball sins. An Auburn over didn’t hit, even though they scored 86 (South Carolina had 55). UNC let up 35 to Pittsburgh in 1H, but Pittsburgh couldn’t break 67 points. I ain’t worried about losing some close ones. A lot of basketball left. Congrats to all the conference winners – especially NC State and Duquesne for winning their conferences for the first time in a long time (’87 and 77′). Sadly those two teams beat my teams. VCU made the NIT. UNC got a 1 seed. Last year VCU made the tourney and UNC didn’t – be cool if they could both make it. Real Cool.

Kentucky -13.5 for 4 units. Using my DK 64% boost here. Hit this one when it opened, and the line hasn’t moved. Oakland allows a high percentage of shots in transition (5th most out of any team in tournament). That scares me against Kentucky’s guards. Over/under is 163 – There will be points in this game and Kentucky will get too many easy ones. Kentucky has almost become a lovable loser in this tournament – They have a chance to go on a run this year.

NC State +5.5/Creighton -13.5/BYU Duquesne over 140.5 Risking 1 unit to win 3.9 units. I watched NC State beat UVA and UNC in person. Burns and Burns are problems. OConnel can shoot. Texas Tech allows 60% of opponents shots at the rim. That’s a lot (6th worst our of tourney teams). The human escalade is gonna get his..

Creighton beat UConn by 19. Once I saw that happen – I was betting their line in NCAA tournament until they lose. They can outshoot anyone

Duquesne have been scoring since they beat VCU in Richmond – Honestly he milked the injury a bit. Just almost lost a tooth. Happens to children all the time. Dae Dae is a problem for the Dukes. BYU have a smooth offense, but I do not think their defense is crazy good. BYU are actually one of the few teams that the tournament seeded correctly. BYU love getting out in transition.

South Carolina/Creighton/Auburn -12.5 risking 1 unit to win 2.89 units. Jay Bilas said Oregon would win, so going with the Cocks. Creighton ain’t losing to Akron – RIGHT? Yale are not great at offense or defense. They just beat Brown by 1 to make the tournament on an unathletic looking last second shot. The opposite of Kyrie’s game winning shot against the Nuggets.

Creighton +2500 for 1 unit. Dook +2500 for 1 unit. North Carolina +1200 for 1 unit. Auburn +1400 for 1 unit. Picking a team from each Region and letting it ride.

Also placed some more golf bets – Wyndham Clark top 10 all 4 Majors on DK +8000 for 1 unit. Lowry top 10 all 4 +8000 for 1 unit. Scheffler top 4 all 4 +650 for 1 unit.

Maverick McNealy top 10 Valspar Championship +650. Brian Harman in my One and Done.

Some NBA Bets for tonight if you are a degenerate and can’t wait for NCAAT like me.

Kyrie Irving 4.5 assists/Kyrie 3 3s made/Mavs over 114.5 tonight against the Spurs. Riskin 1 unit to win 1.89 units. Doncic is Prolly playing, but I like Kyrie to get a little more usage with Luka’s hamstring issue. Kyrie seems to be locking in. He has played in 18 games straight for the first time since 2016 I think it was. Spurs defense will be great one day with Wemby, but that day is not this season.

Jordan Poole first 3 +390. Bet & Get on DK for 0.5 units. No Jones for the Wizards. Was going to go with Kispert or Poole, but Poole’s odds are better. Dk has nuked their odds on this promo, but I hit on Kyrie with Luka out, Kuzma with Jones out, and D Mitchell with Strus out.

BYU ML/1H ML and over 142 against UCF today for 1 unit at +152. Using draftkings SGP insurance boost.

Just gotta get a little action in before my VCU Rams play at 2.

St Mary’s looked good against Gonzaga to win the WCC last night. Zags just don’t have the offensive fire power this year. Scoring is important in basketball.

UNC gonna beat dook 3 times to win the ACC Tourney Title? Idk but stay tuned!

Carolina Panthers' Military Appreciation football

NFL Divisional Round – Hopefully the Games are not shit blowouts again this weekend

8-2 on NFL this year up 9.21 units.

The Cowboys Suck! They have not won an NFC Championship since their Super Bowl win in the 90s — The Lions Don’t Suck! The Lions got their first playoff win since before xbox live, text messages, and Facebook were a thing. Panthers keep announcing on their instagram that they are interviewing coaches (its a lot and none are named Harbaugh). These games will be better this weekend. Read last weekend like a book. Wouldn’t hate betting Devin Singletary to score again, but going parlay crazy… Packers might win again.. Bills favored makes me think they smack the Chiefs.

Isiah Pacheco longest reception over 10.5 yards/Amon Ra St. Brown TD/Aaron Jones TD/Nico Collins TD for 1 unit at +2179 with 30% boost. Could be a Travis Kelce game, more likely to be a Rice game, but I think still think Pacheco will take a screen pass for some yards – especially if Chiefs are down. St Brown was the only Lion to not score last week it felt like. He’s due. Nico is a stud and still not gettin respect at +160. Aaron Jones.. Keep it up. He’s been red hot the past 4 weeks now.

Lamar Jackson over 199.5 Passing Yards/Packers over 13.5 Points/Buccaneers over 16.5 Points/Josh Allen over 39.5 rushing yards for 1 unit at +350. Lamar is getting 200 passing yards. Packers are scoring 14. Bucs are scoring 17. Josh Allen is the variable, but I think he pulls off another long run last week. Chiefs secondary is not the best tackling secondary.

Packers over 16.5/Packers +3.5 1Q/Packers over 9.5 1H/Over 9.5 1Q for 1 unit at +448. Packers keep it rolling. They were hot over the past month of the season and worked the Cowboys. 49ers may lean on them and win the game like they always seem to do against the Packers, but I think the Packers score enough to keep it close.

Shai-Gilgeous-Alexander under 44.5 Points/Rebounds/Assists for 3 units. Why is SGA catching a stray? No, it is not because I wish the Hornets had him instead of Miles Bridges (Bad trade). It is because the Thunder scored like 134 points against the Kings last time they played and this number still ain’t it.
