yes, I just "collected" my $25 when Jackson completes a pass
lol
Do you know why Pennsylvania keeps getting screwed with these promos? The last one was the BAL-PIT promo, which gave everyone in states other than PA $25. This one is over 0.5 completions in the rest of the country, but 0.5 TDs in PA. What the dealio? Are there regulations in PA that don't allow for these easy money plays?

It must be. Might be time to relocate and triple your taxes!
it's similar for casinos as well - 8 pct NJ vs maybe 40 pct or more for PA and NY.
operators howled, but PA and NY produce far more direct tax revenue for the state. the partial tradeoff is fewer in-house jobs, because at those tax rates, a casino is not going to have the level of dining and entertainment that, say, Atlantic City versions do.

I had UCLA vs USC last night, I'm getting UCLA +3.5 - loved it enough to bet not two but THREE bucks on it!
UCLA 7-0
14-0
14-10
21-10 at halftime so +14.5
28-10
28-23
35-23 end of 3rd, so +15.5
35-30
35-36
38-36 with 52 seconds left so +5.5
USC can win the game with a non-covering FG
but UCLA assumes the KO is a touchback so a 55-yard return
AND 8-yard TD pass with 36 seconds left for a 43-38 covering win - only moment of the game with a non-cover
then a Hail Murray - er, Mary - to end zone doesn't work
UCLA needed a "Point Spread Coach" there
the two most notoriously corrupt Pac-10 booster programs of the last 60 years - c'mon man, they have to cover or a family member disappears....
(imagine someone who bet the rent money on UCLA and now will shiver in their car for a month instead. bad beat, for sure - but that's why you don't risk real money!)

In last night's wild game, BAL led CLE by 3 points with 2 seconds left in the game. But on the ensuing kickoff, CLE tried to pull off a "Music City Miracle" but failed -- badly. The final lateral went out of the end zone for a safety, and BAL won, 47-42 -- thus covering the 3 point spread!
Baltimore bettors rejoiced, while Cleveland bettors did everything they could to not throw the remote at their TV.
line was -3.5 at game time (that swore me off BAL and into a parlay of BAL win at all plus LJax OVER 55.5 rushing yards). some earlier bettors got a push once the 2-point conversion hit, some had a win at that point.
but last-minute players on BAL were losers until the final silly play.

Went a little crazy last night, but it turned out okay. I get a little looser towards the end of the year because I made a deal with my wife that I would only gamble on football:
Kareem Hunt over 2.5 receptions HIT.
Mark Andrews over 44.5 yards receiving HIT
Nick Chubb over 78.5 yards rushing HIT
Baker Mayfield over 1.5 passing TDs HIT
Lamar Jackson over 1.5 passing TDs MISS
Browns Money Line MISS
DK - in NJ, at least - is giving you $25 if you take any team in the two opening night games on Tuesday and they DON'T lose by at least 76 points.
that will bump me to $363 off an original investment 4 years ago of $25 - a tidy profit borne in large part by dopey promotions but my picks are above water as well.
