Go Hall Go


The Chuck went 2-1 in last night's action as he banked his two NCAA plays and dropped his NBA play, netting 450 units last night. With his winnings the Chuck's total now stands at 3,990. I have to tell you, I was sweating that Kansas game at the end. I thought that the game was over and done with and then I see Missouri tied with KU and threatening possible overtime. I was relieved to see Missouri winning the game in regulation by 2 points, which is less than the 4 1/2 points they were favored by.
It was also good to see my trusted and nameless source being victorious with his Rider pick, thereby redeeming his earlier Samford over Furman pick. All in all, it was a pleasant way to start of the week. We will try to keep the winners rolling this week as I need to start building up bankroll for baseball.
As for tonight I really do not see a bevy games that interest me. I am refraining, mind I tell you, from playing every marginal game out there. It clouds the judgment and exposes you to bad streaks. That being said, I really only like one game out there tonight and that involves a Big East matchup between Seton Hall and Depaul. Seton Hall seems to have found their stride of late, winning their last four contests and covering the number in six out of their last eight games. Depaul, on the other hand, is absolutely dismal and has lost their last eleven games. During their streak of futility, Depaul has managed only to cover the number twice. The line is currently set at Seton Hall laying 1 1/2 points on the road. I think Depaul continues to struggle and Seton Hall should take this one handily.
Another reason for me backing Seton Hall is because their mascot, the Pirate, is always at the top of the strength chart of the Chuck's mascot indicator. The Blue Demon, Depaul's mascot, on the other is eerily similar to the Blue Devil. We do not think much of any Demon or Devil, especially if he is Blue. Why is he blue? Why not Red? Aren't devils and demons supposed to be red? Maybe he is blue because he sucks so much. In any case, the Chuck likes the Pirates of Seton Hall to cover this number and will bet 500 units. I have to do some more research before posting any more picks. Although, I might just stay pat. Just remember, I am better than you so check back to see who I deem worthy of picking.
