A note for all degenerates: If you bet 150 to win 265, you are not $265 richer. This is how guys end up making mistakes resulting in having to pay intimidating guys very high interest rates and eventually visiting hospitals. In that scenario you would be $115 richer. That's fine, until you start thinking that $115 can cover $265 worth of bad bets.Happy opening day! With less than 4 hours to go before 1:00 kickoffs, just sending a reminder that the following folks have not placed any bets yet.

A reminder for everyone. Many may be looking to add bets to the late games today. I don't recommend chasing 1:00 losses with desperate late bets, but sometimes ya gotta do what ya gotta do.
PLEASE quote your previous betting post when making new bets and/or changing existing bets. DO NOT just edit your post. I record your bets throughout the week and do not go back to check posts I have already read. So if you edit, I will not see it. Also, edits show a timestamp. And edits made after kickoffs could nullify any bets. Thank you everyone. Enjoy football again! Finally.

On a side note...I allow myself $1000 to wager in the real world each season. My one bet this week:
3 way Money Line teaser to win outright: Ravens, Colts, Titans (+143). Bet $150 to win $265.
A bet for the Jets, Giants, and Texans to lose essentially. Week 1 can be weird, but let's see if I am $265 richer today!
Use spreadsheets or a notepad or something. The mind is a funny place to combine mathematics and desire.
