why

I take it you don't like it?

Yeah but that stare at the cross thing - that's fokked up.

I wonder if there is any particular reason it has to be celebs.

Someone send me all of the gamelive poster pics. Let's experiment.

There is just very little liquidity unless you want to bet into a sharp line right before the game on a major market (and even then its not great). If you were going to bother setting up non-us accounts it would be way down the list.

Yeah I don't know if I would trust what rito says. I'm sure he speaks the truth for his own methods but I remember when I was gambling he would make comments to the effect that you couldn't make money at Pinnacle and Matchbook and they were by far the two books where I succeeded most.

Different strokes.

Matchbook was #1 for me. Course it's been awhile.

Fair enough, but I remember matching some 500-2000 sized bets on major market sports as they were moving. I also like saving the couple of cents as it pays out over time instead of the -110 lines.

My tummy hurts.

There is a persistent little stink bug that keeps trying to get in the house. I keep shooing it away, and it keeps coming back.

2.25 hours til my weekend begins!

I love the mayhem commercials.

Hey MF,

Did you tell me once you were trying to model MLS? How'd that go?

Sometimes there is only one acceptable way to say things.

For example, when talking about a pitcher delivering a wild pitch in baseball, there is one and only one correct verb: uncork.

A pitcher uncorks a wild pitch. That's it.



Likewise, if talking about a hearing aid that is not working properly, there is only one phrase. You don't say it is broken down, you don't say it is malfunctioning.

The hearing aid is on the fritz.



On the fritz.

 

[MrX]

Did you know that no one knows where the phrase "on the fritz" comes from? How can that be?

 

[Mudcat]

Well dip me in butterscotch and call me Sally May.

I had a dream about William Shatner last night.

 

[Mudcat]

That means you have hit the big time. Congrats.

Bread, Robyn, and I had a discussion about his vicodin head in Orlando. I really wanted to tell him about his vicodin head, but I didn't think he would appreciate it.

 

[reno cool]
