We don't technically need to migrate to a new topic every week since things take forever to purge now, but it just feels like tradition at this point.
Whoever made the schedule and decided that Browns/Bengals in primetime this early in the season when all people want to do is watch good football should be fired. --- I was the final Undisputed Champion in UCA history, but azuarc was our Guru Champion! ... Copied to Clipboard!

This rendition of the Browns being the same old Browns is worthy of national television just off the schadenfreude alone.

When was the last time the Browns were favoured by 6 or more points? This line seems crazy to me.
I'd give them the odds to win the game but I don't think you can ever feel good about taking the Browns -6. This is the type of game that could be 10-7 Bengals in the 4th quarter. --- I was the final Undisputed Champion in UCA history, but azuarc was our Guru Champion! ... Copied to Clipboard!

LOL is implying things just not good enough anymore? I spent most of the post talking about the spread and mentioned how bad Browns -6 was, how is that not me saying that Bengals +6 is the move?
If I say, "I don't think you can ever feel good about Browns -6", and "This line seems crazy to me", how are you not inferring anything from that. And you call yourself a doctor of football, do you even have any credentials? If anything the thing I didn't make clear was the over/under but I even conceded that point! --- I was the final Undisputed Champion in UCA history, but azuarc was our Guru Champion! ...

Dr_Football 09/18/20 7:16:13 AM #16: |
the point is if you say a line is crazy, and then the result of the game is only one point off the spread, and that the Browns were more or less covering for large portions of the game, you dont really get credit for taking the Bengals
ergo you were right on which side to take, bur very wrong on the reasoning --- azuarc won the Guru. I did not. ... Copied to Clipboard!

davidponte 09/18/20 7:38:18 AM #17: |
I feel like thats kind of a semantics argument though. Sure, my reasoning was wrong in the sense that I got lucky on the back door cover, but I still stand by "this is a crazy line", and at the end of the day I was technically right when it ultimately came to what I was talking about, which was the cover.
If I posted "Bengals +6" and nothing else, I guess I would have looked better, but where's the fun in that? Most of my posts involve me screwing around or talking shit one way or another, I thought it was hilarious that I was so entirely wrong for 99% of the game only to fall backwards into being right at the very last second, but I guess y'all have an issue with that lmao Even my series of posts went like, "I'm so convinced about this" to "nevermind I'm an idiot" to "I was right I'm a genius". Clearly I was already making fun of myself before it had to be pointed out that I was wrong when if we look at the most technical sense, I was right. The betting sites didn't look at my reasoning and only award me half of my money. --- I was the final Undisputed Champion in UCA history, but azuarc was our Guru Champion! ... Copied to Clipboard!

yes if we were gambling you were right which is all that really matters, but you were barely right in terms of spread despite mocking it, and every other assumption about the game was basically the complete opposite of what happened --- does anyone even read this ... Copied to Clipboard!

To be fair, "degree of right" does matter in some cases. Like if someone goes "I wouldn't be surprised if x team wins this game"and they win, I wouldn't give that person credit because they essentially straddled the line, intentionally or otherwise, to where they'd "Technically" be right either way, but they didn't go out and actually make a prediction. Covering your bases, essentially.
In regards to david's initial post, obv he didn't intend it to be this way but I do think it was vague enough that it might have come off as the above situation. It's a little murkier with spreads usually, but a lot of people see "implying" as basically just a half-assed pick rather than going all in and actually making a pick (which in theory opens yourself up to meaningless shame and/or ridicule but greater 'reward' if you get it right) --- I'm a greener egg than the eggs from dr. seuss ...

Alright, Emerald's right, and @KommunistKoala , you're also right, I didn't mean to hijack the NFL topic with me being absurd just for the sake of it, and it won't happen again. I'll stick to my general trash talk because no one wants to read this shit anyway.
I blame the sports group chat I have with some IRL friends, where we spend all our time arguing like this about nonsense, knowing at the end of the day it all doesn't matter. That obviously doesn't convey as well online where most of us only have a surface knowledge of each other, so that one's on me! --- I was the final Undisputed Champion in UCA history, but azuarc was our Guru Champion! ...

Don't take it the wrong way, I'm not tryna dump on you or anything. Obviously you don't have to prove to anyone that you were right, if you know that you were on the right side even if it wasn't clearly communicated, then who cares really? It's not a big deal either way. I was just trying to more elaborate why others probably were disputing your point. Sports is SRS BSNS

No, no, you are right! I was being 100% sincere there even though it easily could be interpreted as the opposite considering I was 15 minutes removed from the complete opposite of sincerity.
I just realized it was all dumb to begin with and I'd rather get along with everyone as usual (mostly) than argue about semantics and not the serious business sports arguments.

It all depends on the O line and injuries for the Packers. Last year they vastly overperformed - that team should've been 8-8 or 9-7. This year they should theoretically be better, maybe a 10 win team.
