I kinda went a little crazy making Super Bowl bets... here's what I have.
The money figures here are what I stand to win after the prize and what I wagered are added together.
1. Bet $8 to win $15.27
- Over 47 total points will be scored in the game.
2. Bet $10 to win $30
- Patriots win by at least 14.5 points.
3. Bet $5 to win $22.50
- There will be a successful two-point conversion in today's game.
4. Bet $5 to win $9.76
- The coin toss will come up tails.
5. Bet $5 to win $9.35
- Freddie Mitchell will have more receiving yards in today's game than the Toronto Raptors will score in the first half of their game today.
6. Bet $10 to win $130
- Deion Branch will score the first touchdown of the game.
7. Bet $6 to win $13.20
- No team will score three straight times without the other team scoring.
I'm fairly confident in all of these things happening. If they do, I stand to make something like $200 off of this game. If they don't, they don't. I gotta figure I can't lose ALL of these, right?
Anyway, enjoy the game today. My pick: Patriots 42, Eagles 17.
EDIT: I got involved in a box thing as well. Here are my numbers for this...
- PHI 0, NE 6
- PHI 0, NE 8
- PHI 3, NE 8
- PHI 8, NE 8
I can DEFINITELY live with these numbers.
