Valencia didnt play yesterday....they play today...

On another side note, I havent commented much, and I havent been really that excited about Olympic soccer, but the Brazil-Argentina should be pretty interesting, I like Argentina early on.

Also, im seriously considering put +900 on Yaraslavl playing Zenit today. Zenit has played so shitty this year, I can see totally domination in a couple weeks by Man United. As a guy born in St. Petersburg, this is pretty disappointing after last year, it looks like a championship hangover

ah man! that would of been a nice hit! maybe fade Zenit for awhile?

Maybe, the books havent adjusted to them at all because they are favored huge no matter what in Russian league play. I havent checked but I can only imagine that the Man U line went way up for this game. Pathetic :hang:. I dont even know where the fuck that place is

International Friendlies

Australia -117 to win 1 unit

Copa Sudamericana

Libertad/Defense Sporting Draw +215


:popcorn:let the international game begin
 
August 20th

So the Argentina game went well yesterday, everything else went to shit. Brazil played pretty shitty, they played pretty conservatively. Of course I woke up to watch this one, and I can barely remember the 3rd goal other then my brother in law saying "that should do it", in all honesty when I heard the announcer yell goal, I was so out of it I thought Brazil tied it. :36_11_6:

Im glad the international game is gonna pick up in the next few days. Im gonna bet a few friendlies but not too many.

As usual ill be betting club picks.

Brazil

Fig/Cortiba Draw +230 to bet 1 unit
Internacional Even to bet 1 unit
Fluminense +200 to bet 1 unit


USA

Dynamo -133 to win 1 unit



International Friendlies


Belarus +1 -150 to bet 1 unit - With half the team including the best player in China dont see anyway this is even a very high scoring game and Belarus might win altogether.
Poland +250 to bet 1 unit
Russia Pick +100 to bet 1 unit - Also, the full team wont be there, some might look at this as a revenge game, but I see this as a game that the Netherlands might not even care about
Italy/Austria Draw+250 to bet 1 unit - This is worth the price IMO, a lot of questions on the Italian team right now, they cant seem to score. Certainly worth the try. Italy is still good at D, and Austria isnt exactly a offensive powerhouse

WC Qualifiers CONCAFAF

USA -175 to win 1 unit
- they will in all likelihood win this 1-0 or so.

WC Qualifiers UEFA


This is interesting play but I did some research on it before I jumped in

Andorra +1.5 +115 I know nothing about Kazakhstan, but seriously, Andorra is the size of my pinky, I think they only have one city in the whole country and this would be like recruiting a national soccer team from one county. All that being said..looking at the FIFA rankings...

Kazakhstan is 125 in the world and Andorra is 182 in the world. Thats a pretty big gap, but who knows if Kazakhstan can even score a goal. Well I decided to find out...

Kazakhstan hasn't scored a goal since November 21st, 2007. (beat Armenia 1-0)
After that 0-6-1. Not very impressive, proving, they are not very good on the offensive side.

So then I looked at Andorra, Andorra was able to score a goal against Azerbaijan just a couple of months ago, they lost 2-1 but the same team beat Kazakhstan 3-0 earlier in the year. I wouldn't take this team ML under any circumstances in the world. They haven't won a game since October,13 2004. Thats a while ago. But the bottom line is is Kazakhstan isnt that much better, either they draw or Kazakhstan wins 1-0!
 
August 21st

Interesting day, winning day though in both international and club soccer. Went 3-2-1 in Int, and 3-1 in Club. Just got done watching the US Soccer game and ive gotta say, I know that winning in Central America is not an easy task but IMO they played very poorly, a lot of bad passes, couldnt seem to get any offense going, im pretty that they only had one shot on goal in the second half which happened to be the one goal. The defense looked great though. Howard really played well, made some great saves, and at the end of the game, the US couldnt seem to clear it, but they kept it out of the box for the most part. All the same, they got the win on the road, which is great, hopefully they will play better at home.

Some interesting games also other then that, the andorra game really fucked me. Amazing how Kazakhstan doesnt score a goal for nearly a year and they go off for 3 in one game. Its Andorra, but still, i was hoping they could put one in also at least. Italy game, i got lucky with that (had the draw). Two own goals by Austria helped me out, IMO Italy is a team to fade right now. Belarus game seemed pretty easy with +1 and half of Argentina's team not being there, and the Russian game, no idea what happened..but I pushed.

Also in the MLS, I think the Dynamo win the league, they are just winning non stop and putting together a lot of goals lately.

Brazil

Flamengo/Gremio Draw +205 to bet 1 unit - Flamengo has played well at home and Gremio has played well everywhere. There stats are pretty even when you compare them with F Home and G Away, same amount of goals, and I could see this being a tight game.

Copa Sudamericana


San Lorenzo -143 to win 1 unit - Boca couldnt put a goal together at home, I expect Lorenzo to get it together in a good spot.

USA

Chicago Fire pick +105 to bet 1 unit - one of the better road teams, expect them to at least draw if not win.

Great Stuff Alex... Keep it going. I'm totally leaving the English National Team because they are all sell-outs
 
Great Stuff Alex... Keep it going. I'm totally leaving the English National Team because they are all sell-outs

didnt really see what happened other then on some front page on some soccer site I saw "England miraculous goal to draw" . I havent looked at UEFA groups that much since we still have a little bit to go, but are they going to make the WC? Seriously im questioning if Italy makes the WC if they keep playing like they are now, I mean I just think they suck and have no offense
 
Yeah as far as the England game the Chezh's really had that win. It wasn't till the 92nd min that Joe Cole scored and it was a joke. I honestly thought that Heskay was offside but that's another thing. It was like a MAD scmbble in front of the box w/ 2-3 guys on the ground fighting for the ball and somehow it ended up in the back of the net. No matter what though whatever happens in the group stage England will advance...

As far as the Italians I believe they are going to advance as well. Just give them time. As soon as Luca Toni comes back from the injury not only eill Bayern win more games but so will Italy.
 
August 22nd

Shitty day yesterday going 1-2 with the Fire coming through at the end of the day. I guess Gremio has to lose sometime and Flamengo is a decent at home so I guess its not a total shocker. Fire are good on the road so I knew they were gonna at least draw, the Galaxy are falling way off and have a shitload of problems.

Olympics

Argentina -181 to win 1 unit
- Theyve just played really well and no one has been able to stop them, the defense and offense have both been playing great, id be shocked if Nigeria took this.

Mexico

Texaco pick -180 to win 1 unit - Theyve played great at home this season
 
August 23rd

Wow..fuckin feel lucky to win that Argentina , they were giving up a ton of chances to Nigeria and basically got lucky that they even scored. Pretty slow game, I think the heat had a lot to with it, not sure why the game was played so early Beijing time when theyve played at night the whole time, think they had something to do with it. Next international games I believe are September 5th, cant wait :)

August 24th

Ouch rough day, a lot of sort of last minute plays that kind of fucked me. I wasnt up for the EPL games so no real idea of what happened. I saw Gerrard scoring a 90 minute goal :). Didnt bet them but they are deffinatly my favorite time because I somehow know a lot of people from there. I watched the Grenoble game, and they looked pretty bad, they couldnt even really get it into the box...dissapointing. Chivas (Mexico), just sucked, they went up 3-2 at the half, ending up letting them tie it, then they got a red card and that was really the ball game after that. Dallas game also sucked, I went out, but KC somehow tied it. Hopefully today will be a better day.,..
