Penguin, need your help.

Got this in the mail today. Its a 500 free bet from SIA, a casino site i bonus whored back in the day. It looks like a 6 team parlay bet, or do I have no clue what Im talking about? Basically you get 500 dollars if all 6 of your picks hold.

Can you take a look at the lines for me and let me know who to pick? Ill make it worth your while if it wins.

Did anyone else get this?

[Penguinfan]

I don't have an account there and it wants you to log in to see whats up.

I am assuming they want you to pick a 6 team parlay against the spread for this weeks NFL games??

If so this is extremely dificult, I have honestly played very few of them and have never hit one.

If this is what they are asking then tell me what your deadline is for submitting your plays as me and a buddy are going over the lines staring in a couple hours.

[MAYHEM45]

The deadline is anytime before 1pm sunday. Here are the lines:

1. Atlanta +5.0 S Carolina -5.0 N
2. Baltimore +3.0 I Tampa Bay -3.0 F
3. Buffalo +8.5 A New England -8.5 L
4. Cincinnati +4.5 B Kansas City -4.5 C
5. New Orleans +3.0 E Cleveland -3.0 O
6. Philadelphia -4.5 T Houston +4.5 M

I have to pick 6 letters, S or N, I or F, and so on.

[Penguinfan]

If it's gotta be those six and only those six it's gonna be nearly impossible, but we'll give it a look.

At least they gave you mostly home favorites to choose from. The one road chalk has trap written all over it.

Tough six, check back tomorrow for an early look.

[MAYHEM45]

Thanks man.

Mayhem, I got the same promo from them. Make sure you make the required $20 bet between the specified dates to qualify. Just wanted to throw that out there to make sure you were aware of it.

later and GL

[Penguinfan]

Here is what we come up with, and I can't say I would have money on any of those games, but for entertainment purposes only:

N Carolina -5

I Baltimore +3

A Buffalo +8.5

C Kansas City -4.5

E New Orleans +3 (could end 0-0)

T Philly -4.5


Good Luck with it, rather go 0-6 then 5-1 for sure.

Penguin, are you a Saints hater as well? How do you project a team with some serious weapons scoring 0 against a mediocre defense.

[Penguinfan]

Not a Saints hater by any stretch, just not sold on a team that will need some time to become, well, a team.

I'll take the three points simpy because Cleveland has no business laying points to anybody, be it at home, road, or on the surface of the sun.

Until the Browns prove otherwise I'll take anybody, including Ohio St plus the points against Cleveland.

[MAYHEM45]

You rock man. Thanks again.

[MAYHEM45]

OK another Q: who is the biggest lock of the week to throw my mandatory $20 bet on?
