What's new

Westbrook out and Harden doubtful vs. the Jazz

I figured... even the riskiest of friends I have wouldn't go that hard.

I think the most I ever bet on one game was like $1,200. I vaguely remember it. Think it was a Ravens at Colts Sunday night game. I think it was about 2001. Maybe 2002. Possibly 2000. I can’t remember if I won or lost though tbh. I think I lost.

if you don't remember... then you lost.

I have a buddy that has $5K on the 49ers... he says he made it all off of $1k during the playoffs so its found money... I have watched him gamble in Vegas and he went way into the hole and said he was actually up, but it happened after we went to bed... I do not believe him.

Oh well, casinos are different. I’ve lost $5,000 in 20 minutes there. Then $5,000 one week later, again in 20 minutes.

Also, I built my betonsports (NASA Intl. iirc) from $2,000 up to $21,000 back in 1999. I think that was the year. The Yanks lost seven games in a row near the end of the season and then finally won. With seven games left in the season, I started betting them big thinking there’s no way they would lose seven more in a row and 14 of 15. They did. I continued to pound them. They lost the first two games against the A’s in the playoffs and I was done. Of course, they came back, won games 3-5, and went on to win the World Series.

I’d usually agree with you but honestly, it’s just been so long and I’ve bet so much, I simply don’t recall. Ill look it up. I’m pretty positive I bet the Colts.
 
We've all had stage fright.
Not the same kind of stage fright, but back in the Delta Center days I was in middle school or high school and had to pee really bad. Huge line. Back in those days, there were no privacy stalls, just a bunch of urinals that stood like 2 feet off the wall, so as the massive line backed up into the hall, so stood with a baseline view of everyone peeing. It got me really nervous and when the time came, I pulled out and ended up standing there, nervous about someone watching me essentially whip it out and do nothing. So I waited about how long it would normally take to pee, zipped up, and left.

Pretty sure that wouldn’t happen now.
 
I'm kind of bummed Harden, Westbrook and Capella aren't playing. I wanted to beat them at full strength and I'm confident we would have.
We play them again in less than two weeks down in Houston. I’ll go ahead and take the W.
