i'm worried about Montreal Impact on the road, DC United is shit but the last 5 home games for DC, only Portland has won as favourites.
The other road teams were underdogs and won straight up.
Smells like a trap to me, but good luck there I don't want to get my hands involved as well last week TFC finally won at home dramatically to

vs New England @ 2.54 lost 1-2
vs Vancouver @ 2.15 lost 0-1
vs San Jose @ 2.85 won 1-0
vs Toronto @ 2.25 lost 1-2
vs Portland @ 2.70 lost 0-2
Montreal have only be favoured once on the road all season and they lost to Columbus.

Well, maybe it is a 'trap' but, then again, I took them at 'PK' and I seriously doubt DC actually win this game, so... Plus, now that the Impact finally got the Mouse off their back with that late winner against Kansas City, they should go in with some positive momentum (and, as those who read my threads know, 'momentum' means everything to me). At worst it's a draw and I get my money back.

Is +151 really being a 'favourite' though? Obviously the Impact don't play as well on the road as they do at home, but man... this DC team is shit. Can't score other than on penalty kicks, and have no creativity on offense. All it takes is for Di Vaio to sneak past the backline a few times, and a push is pretty much guaranteed, and maybe even a win.

ah shit didn't see, a PK is a better option

that's still favoured and no matter what the books will always want action there. Sharpies are now putting money on DC.
Hey man I thought TFC was shit and they have fucked me many times this season whether i fade them or back them
You got to remember, Montreal also leaks a shit load of goals on the road, completely different team than when they play at home. really really weird but tha'ts how it is.
The line just smells too easy to lure people into, we shall see how it goes but I'm not going to put money on a game where I don't back a much more superior team as oppose to I'm fading a shit team and those are the type of games where you get fucked over!

Good call Mike (and yet another reminder of why I should stay away from sides altogether). Now as for totals...
Adding:

*Chivas and San Jose have played 9 straight head to head with 2+ goals or more (6-3 O/U 2.5), and are both 9-2 O/U 1.5 away/home respectively, so odds are good there'll be a minimum 2 goals in this one. As for a third... well, you know the drill.

Well, it probably wasn't the 'sharpest' pick in the world, but the thing that really ticked me off was Corinthians more or less refusing to shoot the ball. The last 20 minutes, they'd break down the Criciuma defense, get in around the box, and then not shoot, looking instead for the perfect pass. Stuff like that just drives me nuts (like Chivas last night still kicking the ball back to the keeper near the end, instead of just sending it long and attacking).
Anyways, looks like another disaster in the making (unbelievable how many games I passed on this morning that hit, and then the second I decide to open it up...) This is what happens when you're running bad and get mind fucked to boot for other peoples amusement... Hopefully I get some 2H goals for a change - maybe I'll go big on the last few.
Enjoy the long weekend Pyppurs.

From internet voodoo hexes, to poor money management, to (let's be honest) just bad handicapping in general, I think I've pretty much passed the point of return now, so after spending the better part of three hours going over these games, anything less than 3-1 (insert laughter here) and I'll see you in 2014...

Thanks cxb - I managed to turn it around in rather dramatic fashion last year (see "December 2012"), but between the huge hole I've managed to dig for myself, the general lack of confidence, and dumbasses fucking with my head (see "July 2013 Redux")... I don't think it's going to be happening this time around.

Might as well just empty out the account and start fresh later this week - with my luck, this one loses while the remaining three come in...

I'll see you in 2014! Unless this one hits, in which case I'll see you later tonight...
