(Irrational advice for the gambler trying to win big just to break even for the week)
Manny Pacquiao vs. Miguel Cotto
Generally, you can’t parlay boxing lines…in the United States that is. Sure, a couple liquor stores in Vegas will take this action, but this one is an offshore special.
Load up your account in the Caribbean, take the moneyline on Pacquiao and parlay that with the odds on the fight going the rounds. By the time you get your bank to honor the payout, it will be time to drop those winnings on the Super Bowl.
College Football
Indiana (+25) vs. Penn State, Stanford (+10) vs. USC
This is a man’s parlay. Placing this bet is guaranteed to put hair on your chest. Taking two underdogs on the road is what separates the happily married men from the drunken degenerates who sleep on the couch.
Both Stanford and Indiana are 6-3 against the spread this year, while Southern Cal and Penn State are 2-7 and 4-5 respectively. Keep that pillow on the couch. Chances are you’ll be showing up to work on Monday wearing the same clothes you wore on Friday.
Degenerate Bet of the Week
Kansas City Chiefs vs. Oakland Raiders (-2), Under 36
Three things that are scientific fact:
1. The Raiders and Chiefs will always go underneath the total
2. Sebastian Janikowski will be the reason you’ll win this bet and he’ll be drunker than you are both during and after the game
3. Only degenerates parlay lines in a game when last place is at stake in an NFL contest.
