hello there......

you are the reason why the man makes money.....if you win 90% of your games, which is next to impossible, you will still lose due to poor money management.

I like the Vikes to win too -- but on any given day anyone can beat anyone in the NFL due to the parity that exists. Culpepper could have a bad game and you could lose due to one player. Anything can happen. Best of luck to you and I sincerely hope you win.....

Have a suggestion for ya. Do you have an account at carib? They have a special Pointspread VIKINGS-6.5 for -165. I'm sure you have played MLB with higher lines.
GL on your Play!!

If Carolina had Beurlein at QB like they did last year, I would have never picked Minnesota, but the reason is that they have a rookie Weinke in his very first official game. Also Vikes are at home in the dome.

I don't trust giving any points to the other team cause Minnesota could be up 9 pts with 2 minutes to go and carolina could drive down the field and get a lame 7 pt touchdown and Minny only wins by 2.

PS: No worries guys, eaaasssyy winnerrrr. Sit back, wait for Minny to beat the Panthers(game will probably be over by halftime

One thing comes to mind when I read this. On any given Sunday....
Forget jinx's, crap quarterbacks, increadible offenses' etc,
gambling is a grind, not a 1 shot wonder. It just takes losing stupid bets like this a few times to figure that out.
Good luck, I'm all over Minnesota too.... but for 1 unit just like any other game I'm playing this weekend.

Very risky betting your whole account on one game... I love the Vikings to win this one also but what I do is I parlay 3 or 4 big favorites and bet them using the Money Lines... You can bet alot less money and still come out ahead.... They are risky also because of one upset but I have been doing really well with these so far... LOVE THE MONEY LINES... Good luck to all...

Exactly. Hate to see anyone lose money, but maybe a blessing to have this happen in the first week of the season...warning sign to all that these huge moneyline plays off zero value, whether played straight or in parlays.

Unfortunately, I learned this lesson last year. . . but now I realize that ANYTHING can happen and it is certainly not a good idea to risk it all. . . especially the first week of the NFL season.

This really should'nt have been such a shock.......Anyone remember last year when all Minn had to do to get HF advantage throughout the playoffs was to beat GB at home in a revenge game from last year....Result Viking loss....Remember the playoff loss to the giants last year.....vikings special teams sucked...viking player fumbling the opening kickoff today they allow a 94 return for a td to start the game......also I didnt realize how much they missed Robert Smith....Bennett and Chapman cant seem to get around the corner.....All any team has to do against Minn this year is dont allow the big play....make Culpepper dink and dunk down the field.....

Ouch! Better luck next week. (oops, you have no money left for next week).

Those "entire account" bets are very risky, and even though they pay off most of the time, every so often you will lose one, like you did today. Hang in there, and next time try a little better money management. It is only half way through week one of the NFL season, and your account is dry. That's a rough road to ride down, and I feel it for 'ya.
