    Ok, phew. Won.

    But no, I'm not anywhere close to even.

    I have won 3 in a row, so that's something, I guess.

    I had Warriors too, but they could never get it going. Shot a lot of 3's and missed most of them. Still won of course, but never close to covering.

    Curry 6.5 3’s prop was one shy

    I lost a NHL prop.


    I need to stick to my knitting and stop NBA & reign in props.


    Speaking of which…. I rarely do bet boosters and those promo type games but I’m operating on the fringe of society as an outlaw gambler so my offerings are limited.

    I may not get the Ro Ro Booster but this has proven just as effective in clinical trials

    BOL bet booster
    Odds Booster - Daily Booster - Minnesota Booster - Vikings & Wild both to Win - Was +173 NOW. +210


    Minny Wild ML , 1P over and TT….. disclaimer: Wild goalie Skinner is a bum

    Love Oilers (@home) -120 vs Bruins

    Yes, I recognize that posting here significantly diminishes my chances but I’m prolly gonna get the virus anyway and die.

    Games haven’t started and I’m already losing (it)

    “Skinner the Bum” is the Oilers goalie vs Bruins nothing to do the the Wild.

    It's hilarious that we as a society think everyone can be a dr, a lawyer, an engineer. Some people are just fucking stupid. Why can't we just accept that?

    Damn, sharp money on Vikings? My boost hopefully gives me value but a loss is a loss.

    I miss tennis. Have you seen or gonna see that “King Richard” Will Smith movie?

    Fresh Prince and Independence Day were personal favorites of mine as a kid, but at this point in his career im done with Will Smith.

    Minny & Minny BetBooster paid. Oilers fucked me with the late goalie change to bum Skinner. Made some money on the night.


    I never watched Fresh Prince. I have serious gaps in my pop culture movies & television. The other night, following my Celtics Lakers loss, TBS (I think) showed “I Am Legend” with Will Smith. I don’t think I ever even saw a trailer. I saw the first half hour. I thought it was pretty good. Loved the interaction with dog. Great writing tool. You knew the dog was gonna end up in jeopardy. 2007.

    I’ve seen some trailers for “King Richard” and the shuffling Stepin Fetchit portrayal by Will Smith of the father was just fucking awful. C’mon.

    I’m not a fan of Serena Williams. It’s likely just an attitude I adopted to get me to fade the favorite. I call her the “Dump Truck”. Big fat jiggling mom body.

    I didn’t know there was a third Williams sister that was murdered. I think I am interested in the family’s story now. Not sure if I want Will Smith to tell it to me. We will see. I can wait 14 years like I did “Legend”.

    I think it was a half sister. I remember it was actually a fairly big story, but maybe it was moreso here than the rest of the country because it was local. Like when Dwayne Wade's sister was killed, I remember there was even some zeitgeist within the establishment and media about maybe addressing the epidemic of black on black crime. But those days are far in the rear view mirror, and the establishment doesn't even acknowledge that black people commit crime anymore.

    I totally meant to bet Cleveland today, but I got distracted by something and didn't place it (or post it) in time. Too bad, because I really thought they were going to beat down the Wolves, and they are.

    The one pick I did make -- Brooklyn over -- had a weak first half, but it's back it much better shape after 44 points in the first 6:40 of the 3rd quarter.

    Wow, back to running bad.

    73 points in the 3rd, looking very probably to win this.

    These two high scoring teams put up 29 points in the first 10 minutes of the 4th, and I'm almost surely fucked. OT is the only way out of this, barring some fouling points. Right now it's a 5-point game, so neither is all that likely.

    Wow.

    I mean, yeah I was on pace to lose at halftime (though it wasn't terrible), but to lose an over 227.5 when it's at 180 after 3, in a close game, is pretty bad.

    You “meant to” or “ was really going to” make so many damn bets. It’s fucking old reading the shit at this point. You remind me of my whiny 8 year old. We all gamble and bet sports. We all consider bets and don’t. You bemoan these misses more than anyone I’ve ever heard x10. It’s unbecoming.

    You bemoan my bemoaning of it more than anyone else. That's also unbecoming.

    So you agree your actions are unbecoming? I’m quite surprised to read that actually.

    I took Over 35 and Army team total O21.

    The thesis is that Navy usually has a good run defense, but their run defense is actually real bad this year.
