Awesome, my Thursday parlay won out which puts me in the lead for Funbucks. :smug:



It's only a matter of time before it all comes crashing down in some epic 7-way parlay.

poo poo just got in bets for late games since I forgot about this until now. Just not in a NFL orientated state of mind yet.

Might've saved my rear end since I'm sure I'd have picked the Eagles.

Almost went out in Eliminator AND Reverse Eliminator in week 1, I picked the Eagles in Elim and the Dolphins in Reverse. At least Jaguars remembered they are the Jaguars and can't have nice things.

Patriots at Vikings in week two! Home team, non-conference, against a winless team. It's basically a machine that prints money.

Didn't place any bets this week because I didn't have a lot of time prior to the games starting. It's a lot easier to get a handle on how good teams are after Week 1 anyway.

I feel pretty good about my funbucks bets this week. I hit on Jax/Phil, Cle/Pit, and Indy/Denver with NY/Det still open. I don't make them parlays though because I'm a scared little child.

Out of the Eliminator, 4-10 in pickem thus far, and the Browns drat near knocked me out of Reverse Eliminator to boot.

Same, and I should've known better than to take a visiting team in a division game, but the Patriots losing to the Dolphins is totally worth going down week 1.

Reverse eliminator was the Bills, I've got no excuse for that one.

I was a fool to bet on the Raiders winning as part of my parlay. Would have made 26k funbucks if they'd won :(

Its not kosher but as far as participation trophies go this is definitely the best option.

I got the Packers out of the way in Reverse and I got the Jets out of the way in Eliminator, and my 49ers+Eagles spread parlay succeeded for $1300 because the Eagles managed to cover the spread after everything that happened in that game....

This is going to turn me into a degenerate real life gambler and end with a desperate plea from me for couchsurfing options here in TFF.

Those Monday Night games are tempting me but there is no loving way I feel confident about any scenario there.

Out of regular eliminator, but won the reverse. Also about 25% wins in funbucks, which I immediately turned around into a parlay bet for the last couple games.
