I will preface this by saying, yup, ATS pools are definitely more fun. I'm in a pick em pool like you and it's very yawn inducing.

But, not everyone fills their card out with every favorite on the board (but probably 90% do)?



If the Raiders had won today I would have won $320 in my pick em pool because I had teams like the Browns and stuff.

So there's that.

Very obvi, I know, but to win my pool you have to win like 13 games.

Going to win my ATS pool for the 4th year in a row. Already crushing it. 12 out of 15 so far this week, assuming that CHI +7 holds.

Had a dream last night that I was trying to ask someone if he remembered the commercial Rocket Richard did that ends with some cheeseball saying, "Hey Richard, 2 minutes for looking so good."

I kept trying to ask but there was some guy with a huge head between us. We were sitting in a row of folding chairs with big-head guy in the middle. I would move forward and bighead would move and block my way and same when I moved back.

I don't recall if there was any resolution. Just a stupid dream that went nowhere I think.

Hey Richard! 2 minutes for lookin' so good!

If I had any kind of skillz, I would redo the end bit of that commercial and superimpose Jean-Louis' head.

That's a guy who should get 2 minutes for lookin' so good.

10 leading my pool at this point.

I got 9. I felt like I fell flat on my face but I guess I was right in it.

This has been cracking me up for about 20 minutes now btw. Pretty striking resemblance, it has to be said.

Muddy, would you be fine with the new girl at work taking you into the lunch room and spanking you with a "switch"? No one else there and it'd be your little secret.

 

[Matty]

That AP incident is quite amusing. Half the population is like "OMG I was hit with a switch all the time as a kid and I turned out fine" and the other half is like "Why the fuck are you calling a small tree branch a switch?"

I'm not sure why all the rednecks were so quick to defend AP before they even knew the details.

Although I suspect it is because they are rednecks.

 

[bacon]

I got hit with switches all the time, such a sense of relief when my parents finally got the clapper and they weren't around the house anymore.

oh, no.

I apologize in advance to all readers of this post.

 

[Matty]

My mom would spank us or ask us to walk in front of her, with the understanding that we were about to get a decent slap behind the head.

A priori, that does not make more sympathetic towards Adrian Peterson.

Rednecks are retarded.

 

[bacon]

When I was bad I was forced to be hit by a train going 400 miles an hour. A little extreme looking back, but really toughened me up. Those trains were so fast.

Half the population is like "OMG I was hit with a switch all the time as a kid and I turned out fine"

Popular go-to position of many, many non-fine people.
