Steelers Yellow?

Until today, the only bet I had on the divisional round was greenbay(+3)over ATLANTA. I had the Falcons when they played during the regular season, but the Packers have improved their running game, and that, along with the rather vanilla Atlanta offense, is why I like the Pack.

On the other hand, as of this morning bodog had moved their line to ATL(-1.5). While I like the Packers to win, this line forced me to consider a middle. When I checked this afternoon, the line was down to ATL(-1), so I took my middle. ATLANTA(-1)over greenbay.

Baltimore-Pittsburgh is underway, and I have baltimore(+3)over PITTSBURGH. Given the recent history of tight games, I don't see how you can feel good giving up 3 points. If I didn't make a point of betting all the playoff games I would stay away from this one.

I've done a sweetheart tease of baltimore(+9.5), CHICAGO(-3.5), and NEWENGLAND(-2.5). I've never done one of these before, but those big lines in the Sunday games seem to be begging for this sort of action.

Pittsburgh is about to score. Maybe this is the time these teams finally have a blowout. The Steelers could ruin my tease before the Sunday games ever get started.

Hmmm. Baltimore leads on a fumble that everyone on the field let sit on the ground for several beats before Cory Redding carried it 12 yards for a score. My bets on the Ravens suddenly look good, while my bet on the Steelers to win the Super Bowl may be in jeopardy.

I havent' bet them yet, but I'm leaning Jets(+9), and Bears(-10).

Steelers are now down 21-7 at halftime. I see alot of yellow seats, but presumably these are from fans grabbing a beer or standing in line for the pisser.

Three and a half minutes into the second half, and fewer yellow seats are evident. If the Steelers have fair weather fans we haven't seen proof of it...yet.

Pittsburgh scored on a Roethlisberger pass to Heath Miller, after a fumble from Ray Rice. The crowd has been going completely mad, as if to prove I had nothing to worry about. Now all they need to do is win by two, and all of my bets will be in play.
