Betting tomorrow's game

[Hootie]

****DISCLAIMER - I AM NOT TRYING TO OFFEND ANYONE OR BE INSENSITIVE, I'M JUST CURIOUS BECAUSE THE SPORTSBOOKS HAVEN'T PULLED THIS GAME****

so I'm a gambling addict and I'd like to know what we think about tomorrow's game now...

Carolina is -4

do we have any shot now, are we even going to try?

Romeo just witnessed a friend/player commit suicide in front of him, there is no way they are practicing today or doing a walkthrough...that has to be a HUGE disadvantage, right?

or are we gonna have a "lets win one for Javon!" game tomorrow? Yeah he's a murderer and no one should feel sorry for him, but his teammates probably cared for him like a brother and might take this as a personal quest to win one in his honor.

or are they gonna just go through the motions and not give a shit since the NFL wouldn't postpone and lose by 50?

What does everyone think?

and I'm not trying to be offensive I was just surprised to see the sportsbooks haven't pulled this game for these reasons.

[Nightfyre]

The Chiefs are either going to come out on fire or absolutely deflated.

[Dave Lane]

It could go either way the Chiefs could rally and win by 40, or lose by 100. Quite frankly I could care less about this aspect.

[-King-]

Really?


I have to laugh at this... LMAO ... Really?

[Hootie]

Really?


I have to laugh at this... LMAO ... Really?

what's the big deal?

One of the players on the team we cheer for murdered someone, and the NFL won't postpone the game...

so if they don't care, then as a person who is free to do what I wish, I'll bet it!

[DeezNutz]

All or nothing game. Chiefs either rise up and show tremendous heart and blow Carolina out from the start, or the Chiefs will never be in the game.

[Hootie]

I just...I just don't see it.

Crennel, for obvious reasons, can't give a "lets win one for Javon!" speech...

Hali is pissed they won't postpone the game...

I just think we are going to see a shellacking to remember...like 42-3...

[Hootie]

I'm not very privy into when you do your pre-game walkthrough and what not...but isn't Saturday a BIG practice day?

[NJChiefsFan]

I don't think it will be a nail-bitter. Which way, idk. I would lean towards losing. It being a murder makes it more depressing tomorrow than, well idk the word, a game of honoring him. Will be a day of contradicting emotion.

[sedated]

If the game is played, the Chiefs are going to get obliterated. IMHO.

[Hootie]

I feel like the biggest kicker is missing a Saturday practice for a Sunday game...that is a big deal, right?

[L.A. Chieffan]

too soon.. if this happened in Monday or Tuesday then maybe the chiefs would play better but right now they're probably just numb

[Hootie]

that's why I'm surprised the sports books or vegas didn't pull this game

[sedated]

The responses in this thread remind me of Reservoir Dogs: "he's either alive or he's dead...or the cops got him, or they don't."

[ElGringo]

If I were a betting man I would stay completely away from this game. As others have said it will be a blow out, but no one can tell for whom. Best bet on this one is no bet.

[rabblerouser]

the Chiefs will never be in the game.

Smart money's always on the house...

[alnorth]

-4? Take Carolina

[Hootie]

ok well

I'm sorry but I'll never bet a Chiefs blowout...have we watched this team before any of this this year?

Is this team even capable of scoring a touchdown offensively when it matters?

If a terrible murder in front of a head coach is what it takes for us to "blow someone out" then...

well I'll just stop right there

[alnorth]

Just checked, Bovada has pulled the game. If you are going to bet, you probably need to do it soon.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

Pretty sure if Carolina owns us they won't be running up the score.

Personally I think we will play our hearts out. Probably be the most complete game this year.

[TEX]

If the game is played, the Chiefs are going to get obliterated. IMHO.

Right on par like most games this season only now they have a legit reason.

[DTLB58]

You have a sickness and need help like Javon did.

Seriously? This is what you are thinking of....

[Hootie]

I added a disclaimer and do not think this was a necessary post.

If I offended you I am sorry.

[Hootie]

but I do supplement my income with betting so I always look for an edge, I do not feel like I need to apologize for that

[KCUnited]

Lol @ the Chiefs missing a Saturday walk through being the kicker in tomorrows performance.

[Hootie]

ok, was just asking

didn't know how important this was

[KCUnited]

ok, was just asking

In comparison to having either seen or heard their teammate taking his own life, probably pretty minimal in the list of things that could impact their performance tomorrow, imo.

[Saulbadguy]

I'd stay away.

[ForeverChiefs58]

My first thought was it could go either way, flat or inspired.

After thinking about it, I just think football is about focus.

I have a hard time even imagining how players or coaches can all at the same time be more focused now than before. I would imagine there would be more mental errors not having everyone's head in the game.

I was talking with someone about this with the Eagles, Colts, and Saints.

Having a negative real life situation has a big negative impact on the team as a whole.

[Easy 6]

Yep, there will be no gray area tomorrow, they will either destroy carolina or be destroyed.

Looking back at history tells me we just might win this... Buster Douglas shocked the world after losing mom, Favre killed it after losing dad, the ravens were on fire for Ed Reed when his brother died, i'm sure i'm missing many other similar cases.

Sometimes a situation like this can instill a numb, grim determination in people.

[Hootie]

I don't disagree but the fact it takes a devastating tragedy and a murder for the Chiefs to actually win a game convincingly is more fuel to the ELIMINATE BAD MANAGEMENT quest we've had all year

[Rain Man]

I mentioned this in the other thread, but I think the Chiefs come out strong and wipe out the Panthers. And then they'll get destroyed in all of the remaining games.

[ForeverChiefs58]

I think it is completly different and the team doesn't have anything to be inspired about. It is more that tragedy didn't just go to him, he went to tragedy.

Tough to play through something that gives you a "hundred yard stare". I don't see this being something that inspires us talent at QB either.

[alnorth]

Seriously? This is what you are thinking of....

A murderer shot himself. Most of us are really not that broken up about it. I could understand a player having some problems dealing with it, but I doubt they post here.

[whoman69]

I would more expect them to be flat. The Cardinals came out the day after Daryl Kile died and lost 8-3.

[Easy 6]

Yeah, a very unusual, unique situation to be sure.

You could totally be right.

[GloryDayz]

Take a F'n week off dumbass!

This is what I was saying earlier. There really isn't a central thing for them to rally around because the guy killed his wife. They will remember him as a friend but that is going to be sitting there as an issue too. They won't be able to honor him at the stadium or visually. I tend to think they are going to be flat.

As for the betting, if you are one who depends a little on betting, you should probably know by now that you bet on smart things, and let the risky go. While there is a decent chance you win this easily, I think it's wise you just stay away. There is a big unknown.

Who the hell are you?

[Sully]

No

[Goldmember]

The Chiefs haven't won a game in Arrowhead since last year. They are not going to blow away anyone; hell they can barely score FGs It will either be a Panther stomp or close low scoring game.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Wouldn't touch this game with a 10 ft. Chocolate Pole

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Who the hell are you?

_______ and the Blowfish

[Easy 6]

No

Wow, even Sullys back.

Its hard to forget the Planet.

[Ace Gunner]

I mentioned this in the other thread, but I think the Chiefs come out strong and wipe out the Panthers. And then they'll get destroyed in all of the remaining games.

ya, I thought about this. I don't think it'll happen though. Best they could do is lose 3 - 0 because they got no QB.

[Hootie]

so what you're saying is I should bet the +5000 prop in the first player to score a TD prop for NO TD WILL BE SCORED!!!

OK!

[bobinkc]

Haven't read much of the thread but the Chiefs don't have the mental fortitude to play on a normal day. After this....I put all my money on the Panthers. Cam will destroy the Chiefs.

[Phobia]

Tend to agree with this. Watched the Panthers on MNF and they looked a whole lot better than 2-9. They'll destroy this Chiefs squad. Never mind they lost a starter on defense.

[mcan]

I doubt it will make much of a difference to MOST of the players on the team except for the media distraction and "mood" around Arrowhead. The coaches on this team have all been doing this job for decades, so they won't be much different either. That said, there is one person I expect to have a poor day and that's DJ. He's been amazing all year, but it's gotta be VERY weird to have the guy you've been standing next to for four years suddenly gone. Gonna be hard for DJ to focus, which means... We will likely get exploited in the middle of the field (more than usual). The line on this game should be more like Panthers -8. Even then, I'd still take the Panthers.

[mcan]

I hadn't heard about Tamba being upset that the game was going to be played, but again, not very surprised. He's also stood right next to Belcher for four years on nearly every snap of the ball. That said, Tamba's position doesn't require as much focus as it does physical tools and motor. When a middle linebacker can't focus, the whole defense breaks. When a outside linebacker can't focus, he can sometimes rely on adrenaline to compensate.

[bobinkc]

Great avatar. Love Hitch. Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

I just...I just don't see it.

Chiefs are going to get trounced tomorrow.

I'd load up on Carolina.

If Belcher died in a car accident, or was shot by someone else, I could see the team rallying.

Not like this though.

You're right.

Its not inspiring, its depressing... its very hard to see where the mental energy will come from.

[Quesadilla Joe]

I think the Belcher incident will give the Chiefs something to play for. I could see them going on a nice little 4 game win streak.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Fuck you. May Freeman bust out a little Chocolate Thunder on those slapdick pussies vondum.

You're just a piece of garbage.

A true trolling piece of trash.

Fuck you, and the diseased infested legs you crawled out of 20 some years ago.

You truly need help. How much financial trouble are you in ??

[Chiefshrink]

Your anxiety of not getting Geno just reared it's ugly head as did mine;)

Not to worry, there will be huge public backlash from this and I hope some Chief maybe Hali or someone with some balls gets in front of a camera before or after the game and absolutely torches Goodell and the NFL for not at least postponing this game.

[The Iron Chief]

Well Newtons good for one rushing TD in each game no?

Thats Game!

[Hootie]

You truly need help. How much financial trouble are you in ??

So much!!!!!!!!! It's omg bad! This is my get out of jail card!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lewdog]

What internet site do you use to bet with?

[Hootie]

What internet site do you use to bet with?

sportsbook and I have a local guy who is web based

with sportsbook you have to be patient because cashouts take 6-8 weeks, at least

[lewdog]

Have you heard anything about topbet? I know a guy who uses that site.

[Hootie]

Never heard of that one...

[lewdog]

Never heard of that one...

haha I typed it in and it says topbet.eu/sportsbook.

Same thing you use?

[Hootie]

Mine is just sportsbook.ag

On a side note I'm glad i steered basically pretty clear of this game

[teedubya]

The fact that The Bad Guy works with mentally disabled kids, troubles me. The guy is such an obnoxious asshole, who verbally berates people at uncalled for heights. Seriously, fuck that guy.

[ForeverChiefs58]

Unfortunately, odds makers usually know what they are doing. Whenever something seems like a really safe bet; bet the opposite.

[The Bad Guy]

Like having to change a Twitter password because your such a level headed guy on the internet? What a fucking hypocrite you are. Complete hypocrite.

Go **** yourself.

Who the **** are you to question the type of job I do because of an Internet message board? I've done far more good things for people on this board than ill venture you have.

So continued to be troubled, asshole.

[The Bad Guy]

Mine is just sportsbook.ag

Was a good idea and listening to me about gambling is probably an awful idea as well.

The few games I've bet this year in the NFL I've been horrendous.

Today's Bears collapse, and the Patriots sitting on the ball on their last drive are the reason I'm pretty much done betting the NFL.

[Hootie]

I will end up losing $100 today...just a hobby. I've done really well this year with money line parlays. Picking NE and DEN every week with the money line and supplementing them with one pick usually pays 3:1 - 5:1 and I've hit on several. I don't usually mess with lines, I hate playing with spreads.

Yeah, it's just a hobby for me too, but one I'm completely awful at.

I'm a sucker for overs. I can't bring myself to bet unders. That cost me the times I did bet this year.

That Patriots and Bears swing was the difference of about 250 for me.

[Hootie]

the sharks call overs fish bets...I never bet the over (or the under, I stay away)

dude Cowherd not only picked the 'Hawks spread, he picked the upset. Dude has been on fire this year (39-16 on blazing five coming into this week)...

My roommate has put $100 on every game Cowherd has picked all year and he's up like $1900+

It's pretty sensational. Listen to that guy, he knows his NFL (and his betting)

I'll have to search for his NFL picks every week or I'll just PM you each week with who he likes.

I'm not obsessive about sports betting like some friends, I just hate the fact that I can't pick a spread to save my life and I'm too much of a pussy to put a ton of cash on the ML.

[The Bad Guy]

Your anxiety of not getting Geno just reared it's ugly head as did mine;)

Ha, I think Geno will be there in the first 5 picks so I'm not overly concerned about winning today.

Knownothing has constantly trolled in Chiefs threads all year. This is no different. He doesn't believe the Chiefs are going to roll off 4 straight. He just wants to be an asshole because he knows people on here want the high pick.

[Mr. Flopnuts]

I don't disagree but the fact it takes a devastating tragedy and a murder for the Chiefs to actually win a game convincingly is more fuel to the ELIMINATE BAD MANAGEMENT quest we've had all year

And now for my next trick, watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat.

I swear, you should always bet on the team that has a major disruption. Teams always win their first game with a new head coach midseason. They always win when the star's mother died the night before the game. And apparently they always win when their linebacker participates in a murder-suicide.
