I've got two things going for us
I commented first in the GDT (I can’t remember the last time that happened and we lost), and I used the Sawx in a parlay, which I used successfully for the win last night.
In other news, you are all welcome.

I will take full credit.
I am confident in the force of Spitfire. He shouldn’t even have to pitch it should just be based on who can glare the hardest.

Con Air and Raising Arizona... basically the same character...
Leaving Las Vegas is kind of like Adaption, his character.
No love for 88m? Freaky film, but great at the same time?
The Rock? Anyone?

8mm
I hated that film. It set me down my ‘I hate Nicholas Cage in anything he’s in’ path.
It almost cost me the opportunity to see Lord of War.
Lord of War, good film.
Why the hate on 8mm? Curious? I like the acting, Jaquin (however you spell it) Phoenix… dark but good.

Suspension of disbelief
When I saw it, I thought the entire thing was unbelieveable tripe. Normally, I try to distance a movie from reality but I couldn’t do it here. I thought the premise was completely absurd.
Now I know you're bullshitting
A homeless guy could do Travolta’s mannerism’s, although I could eat a peach for hours. Thanks for the reminder up above about Lord of War great film. Bang Bang anyone?

The Rock was good.
And I’ll admit that I enjoyed the National Treasure movies.
Knowing looks awesome though.
Vin, buddy...
I lost all respect for you for the National Treasures love.
I am kidding, of course.

They're a guilty pleasure. I thought National Treasure was going to be horrible and waited until well after it came out on DVD to watch it.
I’ll admit that Nicholas Cage had me rolling when he was doing that British accent in the second one, though.
Anyone else insanely excited about Max Payne?
Normally video game movies suck, but I think this is going to be awesome. Marky Mark is one of my favorite actors.
He owns the Trop. Without wind the knuckle has no enemies

Well, I just put more money on Boston in hopes of undoing what you have done. Also, parlayed with the under.

I dominated the NFL this weekend
This is my first real forray into baseball betting. It may be last.
I did ok myself
11-4 I think. Baseball is tough cuz everyone is so evenly matched for the most part and the obvious stuff the line makes it tough to make money, but my one rule is never bet for or against your favorite teams in any sport just asking for trouble

the one issue
I feel like they win all the high-scoring affairs and us the low scoring. Whatever, I would prefer to lose 50 bucks and win this game. Ideally I’d make it up on the other games I have money on.
Degenerate gambler here I come.
It doesn't take long, but when you win a couple of big bets there is no drug

Get a hooker. And not one of those cheap 'strip club' hookers, one of those escorts that you have to provide refrences for
Because of sound budgeting, when I have a 3 check month, I literally have one whole check that I can spend on anything I want, the first check of that month. I have a 3 check month in October. I can either buy two playoff tickets for every single possible playoff game for the Rays, or look into season-tickets for next year.
well done
my budgeting skills are non-existent so I either have way too much money or have to cool it for a few days. Sad really

It wasn't something I was considering until I started down that process.
I was thinking of taking a vacation with that check. I’d like a vacation, but game tickets right now sound and feel a hell of a lot more appealing.
smart guy!
I did something similar to that when i was single, worked out well. Then i did something something I got married.
You know what’s funny is my reply works for your hooker comment AND your budget comment! Ha!

he looked nervous in comparison to how Price looked.
I thought the Bulls did really well. A lot of the ’Sawks fans were making fun of me for having a rally cap on in the 6th inning.

Yet, I won’t remember someone’s name if I’ve met them 10 times.
Did anyone read the BucEm post about the RJS rules this year?
Good grief that organization has fallen off.
People wondered how I could literally turn my back on this team.
From now on, I’m just going to point them to that post, but that’s only part of the problem to be honest.
The organization seemingly doesn't care about this community anymore, between allowing Allen to sign any hardened criminal and resigning Gruden to an extension
And considering that every offensive player that leaves the team rips Gruden on the way out, I have every reason to believe that every move Gruden makes is to the benefit of masturbating his own ego. Fuck that team.
In five years they went from the cream of the crop to potentially the worst ran team in town.

Not if they're going to blow smoke up this communities ass about raising ticket prices while being almost 40 million under the salary cap
And say they need the money to sign free agents, then not only not sign anybody, but not sign any of the new ‘core’ players to contract extensions.

True. There were many empty seats this past game. The team still caleed it a "sold out game"

it cant be that bad dude
the product on the field overall has been hovering around average, so you cant be too upset with that. I personally dont care if borderline criminals play as long as they produce. My gameday experiences have been alright, im sure most people would agree. At least we are not the bengals…
it shouldnt be something to be proud of
but there are only so many top-tier clubs that are able to stay at that level for years.Do we have the right to be dissapointed with managemnt for not signing/ resigning the right players? sure, but we dont know if their inactivity is because of legit personel questions or money.
All I say is once a fan always a fan. I have loved my Bucs since the days of Bucco Bruce and free tickets at the old sombrero.
I also have loved my Rays since their inception and since going to the first game in team history. Ya love em through the good, the bad, and the ugly. And theor has been LOTS of ugly for both teams!!!
