Super Bowl XLIX - Seahawks v. Patriots

Post by slappybrown »

So what are yinz doing for the Super Bowl? Who do you think will win the game?

I will go to a bar and watch it. Also I am in various block pools but the numbers have not been drawn yet.

Pats currently favored by 1 or 1.5 at most books.

Prop bets have some good ones as usual:

SPECIAL (NE vs SEA) - Will it be mentioned that Pete Carroll was the last head coach of the Patriots?

Yes +110 (11/10)

No -150 (2/3)
Seems like an easy winner on Yes.
(NE vs SEA) - Longest Touchdown in the Game

Over/Under Yards 44½
Like the over.
(NE vs SEA) - Shortest Successful Field Goal in the Game

Over/Under 24½
Like the over.
CROSS SPORT - What will be higher on games played February 2nd?

Sidney Crosby Points Pick

Russell Wilson TD Passes Pick
Gimme Sid.

Having a party at my place. About a dozen or so people coming over. I'm making pizza and everyone else is bringing something. As far as the game goes: Pats are going to win in a close game: 21-17. At least one of those touchdowns (edit: for the pats) will be a pick-six. And the Pats will forever have this superbowl win associated with deflategate.

Probably gonna go over my brother's apartment.

I'm really liking the LaFell to score the first TD prop. Forgot the odds but they were really favorable.

I don't think the Patriots are that multidimensional on offense and won't be able to run the ball at all. Gronk won't have a good game and Brady will be under duress the entire game. The only reason the Pats will be in this is because Revis and Browner should shut down the Seattle WRs

Seattle 24 Patriots 17

66/1 for LaFell to score first TD.

I will be in the departure area of Louis Armstrong airport around kickoff time. Won't get home until after 8 pm local, so I'll miss almost all of the game.

It will be very deflating for the Pats to lose the last 3 Super Bowls they are in

Is there a good place to make these prop bets? I have never forayed into online sports betting.

I use 5dimes.eu. I couldn't find any of the really exotic props but they have a lot of actual game-related ones like the first TD bet

A couple of my buddies are having parties for it so I'm debating whether to go to one of them or spend the entire game pacing nervously in front of my tv. I'll probably end up going to a party and making a complete fool of myself as I scream at the tv, violently signal first downs, and ignore everyone trying to talk to me.

I'm confident about the Pats in the matchup though. I don't see any of the Seattle receivers creating any space at all which will hopefully lead to a couple Wilson turnovers. 27-13, MVP to Gronk.

Yeah...fans signaling first downs is worse than players doing it.

Just like last year, the good defense always beats the good offense. Only difference is, the Pats actually have a defense that can step up, unlike last year's Broncos, so it's not just a high powered offense with no D vs a great defense. Nevertheless, I don't think the Pats defense is good enough to hold the Seahawks under 21, which I think the Seahawks will hit.

Seattle 24-20

Two buddies that used overseas betting services for Hold 'em tourneys. One got his money in a check that actually cashed. $300 in his escrow account cleared. The other got a fullscreen notice that his account was closed per USDUSDOJ.

Results may vary, but both were from late 2014 activity.
