THE NBA IS COMING!!!
We have been working like mad scientists and we believe we are on to something big…..Betting on the NBA!!!! Runny took a mini crack at it earlier in the year and as he was doing that Flash Flash has been working and re-working his math models to find a winning strategy. And guess what folks….We came up with a system that picks NBA game winners with 85% accuracy. We are now taking that methodology and integrating it with our ATS numbers and we are about to unleash holy hell on the gambling world. Stay tuned because in the next two weeks we are going to start posting daily NBA picks. We are really pumped up and we have been building our bankrolls with this system. Get ready to rumble again!!!

Free Winning Super Bowl Picks: Steelers versus Cardinals: 10 Reasons why the Cardinals will cover!
What a bunch of fair weather fans our readers are. We went 4-0 Championship Sunday and nobody, not one person, even said nice job on this website or on Facebook. Nobody!!! Oh well. I guess our mediocre regular season records could not be made up by one great NFL playoff weekend. On the NFL postseason, RPJ $yndicate is 7-4 and Runny is 1-0. We are going to pick the game and the O/U for you.
Marisa Miller is H-O-T, hot hot hot.
Our scouts down in Tampa tell us this is not one for the ages. The media is playing this up as an even fan base but in reality this is Pittsburgh South. The Cards do not have many fans down there at all and we anticipate a Steelers crowd in the magnitude of 80-20. As far as the scene and the general excitement around the Super Bowl, the economy is having an impact. Parties are being canceled (Playboy), parties are selling tickets to the public because sponsors pulled out (Reggie Bush’s party for $350), the Super Bowl TV spots were sold out only two days ago and even Cash 4 Gold was able to buy a tv spot. This is not THE event this year. The Cardinals killed it. Just wanted to provide some insight into the general scene.
Steelers versus Cardinals (+7 and OVER/UNDER 46.5)
RPJ $yndicate is picking the Cards to cover and taking the OVER and here are 10 reasons why:
1) QB: Warner holds Super Bowl passing records and has proven that he can execute in the 4th quarter in the big game. Big Ben does not win games for this year’s Steelers, the defense does. Yes defense wins championships, but all we need is a Cards cover. One of Big Ben’s most horrible games of his career was in the Super Bowl against the Seahawks. Huge edge for the Cards
2) Cards Offense: These guys are scoring at will on anybody. Destroyed Carolina on the road, destroyed the Eagles, these guys are legit. We think they can score on anybody. Steelers can only use Troy P. to double one WR, Cards have 2 that are ridiculous, one that is very good (Breaston) and can throw really to anybody else.
3) The “Hot” Factor: The Cards are hot. They solidified their defense for the playoffs, found the run with a rested Edge and just have a nasty attitude going on right now. Their QB has won a Super Bowl, their coaches have played in and coached in Super Bowls and they look unstoppable right now. Giants pulled this off last year and the Colts prior. Always beware the hot team.
4) The over is 38-13 in Arizona’s last 51 games as an underdog.
5) Las Vegas Sports Consultants: We won using these guys in the Championship round. LVSC opened the line at Steelers -6.5 and O/U 46.5. Since the line is now Steelers -7, we get to benefit half a point from what LVSC thought the perfect line was going to be. Read last week’s post if you want to understand this more.
6) Over the past 13 Super Bowls where there have been 2 different seeds, the lower team has covered 12 out of 13 times. The underdog is 2-1 in Tampa Bay Super Bowls. Go Cards
7) O-line: Cardinals left tackle Mike Gandy has started 35 straight games since joining the Cards in 2007. This year he only gave up 6.5 sacks and committed one holding penalty. Winning the battle of the line is key. In the last 13 Super Bowls, the sack leader was has won 12 of those games and is 8-3-2 ATS. Steelers are known for their sacks but did you know the Steelers were only +2 in net sacks on the season? Cards were +3.
Red zone offense: We jumped all over this in the Cards/Eags game. Red zone O is critical. Arizona is ranked 9th in red zone touchdown percentage, the Steelers are ranked 15th. Seems close but in reality, the Cards scored 72 more red zone points and had 16 more possessions in the red zone than the Steelers.
9) Coaching: The Whiz, Ken Whisenhunt is the key to this game. Remember when Gruden went to Tampa and coached his Bucs to a commanding win over the Raiders. Whiz has this advantage too. Willie Parker admitted that Whiz knows him better than he knows himself and said he knows the same about Big Ben and the rest of the Steelers. The Whiz beat the Steelers last year, sacked Big Ben 4 times and picked him off twice. Do not underestimate this.
Before we get to number 10, here are the ATS numbers:
Steelers
Cardinals
10) Brenda Warner: We ain’t betting against this hottie!!!!
and there you have ot folks. 10 reasons why the Cards will cover in this game. We might even throw some cash down on the moneyline. We are also hitting the OVER and actually think nthe over is the best bet of the day. Enjoy the Super Bowl.
