I've seen the name "STRAUSS" plastered on both sides of the batting helmets used during the MLB playoffs.

STRAUSS is a German manufacturer of workwear, safety foot wear & protective equipment.

Seems odd that America's Pastime couldn't find a US based company wanting the chance of promoting their brand during the games.

I never heard of STAUSS before the games.

I know them now & I think many other Americans know them now as well. It's all about the money.

PARKER ROMO OVER 1.5 FG'S +105

CALEB WILLIAMS UNDER 229.5 YARDS PASSING 

Nice to get a winner on the 1st drive of the game.

JORDAN LOVE OVER 6.5 YARDS RUSHING -115

Sparty Head Coach Jonathan Smith is now 0-8 as a favorite at home.

Gator HC Napier now 0-13 VS Top 25 teams.

Maryland D caused 3 INT & pressured Raiola as the home dawg.

Rarely play parlays but just had to here.

Sometimes it all comes together.

LAST WEEK 2-2

OVERALL 11-8-1

THIS WEEK

DENVER -7.5

DALLAS -3

CHARGERS -4.5

BILLS -4.5

Chill

Either it will or it won't get posted.

Relax

Done for the day.

Race 7 WPS #1

BOXING 1-3-6-9

#13 closed to run 2nd by a head paying $7.14/$4.62

Sneaky move by trainer Beckman but he couldn't get it past me...hahah

He came from way back with Pratt. This filly goes on the stable.

Grand Mahogany went off @ 15-1 & ran a decent 3rd paying $5.48

Race 5 is another MSW for 2 year olds. I'll pass on this one but trainer Whitworth (what a 1st name) Beckman scratched his #3 which allowed his AE #13 to get into the race. Currently 7-1 with Pratt on this 1st timer.

Small WPS here on #13

#8 closed off the pace to get the win. Paid $7.84

Race 3 WPS #3 Grand Mahogany

Unless you have some info that a 2 year old has got a little talent, capping these babies is rough. You can look at ownership, breeding, works etc but the picture isn't always clear. 

These are just action plays.

Keenland

Race 1 crapshoot with a bunch of 1st timers. #2, 6 & 12 all have a race under their belt. I'll take a shot with the best jocks/trainer.

DD 5-8-10 with 4-8.

Whenigettoheaven got caught at the wire losing by a half length while going 3 wide in a speed duel with #6. Torrealba should have sat off the pace instead of battling for the lead. Cost him the race IMO.

Fortune reports that LAYS, owned by PepsiCo, is giving their brand a makeover reminding consumers that their chips are made from potatoes.

They quote a poll taken in 2021 where 42% of Americans didn't know their chips were actually made from potatoes.

I wonder what these dumb shits thought they were eating. They shouldn't be allowed to procreate. 

He was at the Yankee game this week & sat during the national anthem.

NOT GOOD!

@pittsburghphil

 The field @ Laurel in the 2nd race has two scratches which will screw the tote with only 6 going.

Like another @ Aqueduct Race 9 #3 Tuscan Gold ML 3-1.

Will post anything else I see.

Good to cu phil!

When capping there are times a certain fact or stat jumps out at you. Here are the 3 that got my attention.

MARYLAND + 6.5 LEADS THE BIG10 IN SACKS. NEBRASKA HAS GIVEN UP 12 SACKS IN THEIR LAST 2 GAMES.

UCLA+7.5 VS MICHIGAN STATE..HEAD COACH SMITH IS 0-7 AS A HOME FAVORITE.

GATORS ARE 0-12 VS TOP25 TEAMS UNDER COACH NAPIER. THEY GET #5 TEXAS A&M SATURDAY.

So now I have to play a small parlay because what good is capping if you don't make the play. 

@pittsburghphil

 phil, I plan to cap Keenland tonight during the Tigers game. Hopefully, I'll find a little somethin somethin...
