Tim Donaghy Suns/Spurs FIXED

[homedawg]

btw, the home dogs, have the best winning percentage $$$ in sports....

[homedawg]

its a tough call in mlb, but I have found, bettin' a rl, on the selected dog, is a dam good play. just last night I had a huge anti-pub dog,(with a good chance at winning) and it was a good play til the 9th..... the top turned sour, and it was losing, but the bottom ended up with an error, that cost a run... happens all the time... :gulp:

[Q-Unit]

most of us can admit, it is hard to take a dog, and very hard to take an under... :beer2:

its easy for me! LOL if you take my stupid overbloated loss chase plays from the NBA playoffs, it still woulda been +20 units or so

Most of the time, joepub has 2 things in mind: FAVORITE & OVER

[homedawg]

[homedawg]

btw, its been proven, many times in the past, its not only the refs...:beer2:

[homedawg]

guys, I have made a comment many of times, while watching a game, during an "ingame" thread: "I know who the ref bet on".

guys, I have made a comment many of times, while watching a game, during an "ingame" thread: "I know who the ref bet on". This aint nothin' new, and Donaghy sure in the hell aint the only ref with his hand in the cookie jar. Do all the games get "fixed"? No f'n way, just watch out for the "LOCKS"!

[Q-Unit]

i know just because we all bet on these games and we have had our share of losses that were close and decided by a ref that we are quick to jump to blame the refs (and now we almost have proof! LOL)

but no one can be surprised. even people who dont gamble or know nothing about gambling.

basketball just lends itself more opportunities to be fixed.

and the temptation is there.

and sorry Silver and Black, respectfully i have to say that story means nothing to me. any smug ref or arrogant fan/player can proclaim"this game is going 5" as a matter of fact manner. just gotta take it with a grain of salt.

now if he were to say, this is going to 5 games, you are gonna win 4-1 and the final game's score is 85-90, that would mean something, but then again thats just too blatantly obvious LOL

Local radio Hack (Darren Smith) told a story yesterday about about a player on the court in the Sacramento / Indiana series of a few years ago...Game two, and this player who went nameless, but did color work for ESPN after he left B-Ball complained to the refs about calls, all calls, going against his team. Ref replied to the complaining by saying, "what are you worried about? The series is going 5 games anyway."

i heard on the radio that in the last 2 seasons or last year (dont know which it referred to) there were 14 games that involved him and big line moves in one direction. 12 of the 14 games paid off the line move. Also heard that only 44 percent of his games went over the total before the investigated time period.....58 percent went over during that period. dude was fixing games. i have never been a conspiracy theororist, but i think pro basketball games are the most likely thing to be fixed by refs because you can affect a game in the way you call it, the amount of fouls etc...... its pretty easy to sway a game the way you need it to go. Duncan and parker pick up 3rd fouls with 10 minutes to go in the 2nd quarter...you call a ticky tack foul or maybe several in the last minute of a game to put it over the total...stuff like that. should be some fun stuff over the next few weeks.

Hey JML- you wouldn't find this kind of stuff going on in hockey that's for sure.....:beerbang:
