True, I don't' disagree at all with the money, except that the Pats have had their run-ins with Goodell. I am looking at it from a bookie angle. The Minnesota game was -5 1/2. Had they kicked and made the last extra point, anyone betting Minnesota would have won. Instead they took a knee and those who bet the underdog Saints won. I don't know the line for the Pats game but I would bet that it was 3 1/3. Yeah, I know. Loser's mentality. But when I bet with the bookies, I didn't have big money to bet on just a single game. I had to try and hit 3 and 4 teamers, with the occasional 5 teamer. This is when you can see the rigging. All it takes is one game to kill your ticket, and that 1/2 point is murder.
Side note: Bet a college game and I was getting 49 points. I said I would take 49 points and anybody. You guessed it, they lost by 50. Too coincidental to be coincidence.
I know what you are saying about better matchups meaning more revenue. I'm just saying it goes way deeper than that sometimes.
Line was NE -7.5 for today's game

I like it. They were able to keep Fisher, Whitley, Tucker, and Martes. Sets them up to have the flexibility to make a trade for a reliever if they cannot find one via free agency.

Glad I went to the game, EC has a good team. Won big and had a bunch of misses up close so I would love to see them play a clean game. Love the way #4 plays. Kountze doesn't seem to have the depth or shooters of years past, but still has a dangerous team based on my belief that they will continue to get better through district. The boudin balls covered in crawfish etoufee from Al T's hit the spot as well!

Going to the state fair to see Texas vs ou in October.

The fried boudain ball covered in etoufee is the bomb.
I do believe you twisted my arm into trying it!

What time is the Kountze vs. EC game Friday night? Meeting a buddy out there and wanna have time for Al T's beforehand.
-
Love how the defense plays!

It'll be tough to top that game. What a ballgame! JSJ is a gamer!

Tomball Memorial beat Lumberton by 15-20.

Tomball Memorial beat Northland Christian 73-41. I'll be back out there for the 3:30 game and update it.

There has to be someone in the military that can sing better than that guy. That was brutal. God Bless America though
I was hoping I wasn't the only one who thought that lol

I loved seeing Patrick Beverley get in Lonzo Ball's head in game 1. Hate that he's not a rocket anymore but wish him all the best when he's not playing Houston. I will say, Lonzo's stat line in his 2nd game was impressive. He's gonna be pretty good, but it's hard to like him because of his dad.
-
Glad they got going offensively last night. Game 7's are always fun to watch, albeit I'll be watching on my phone at work. I hope MMP is rocking tonight!
-
Tough loss after McCullers and Yuli stepped up, but it's nice knowing Keuchel & Verlander are going in the next 2. Offense is due for a big game!
-
Great playoff baseball wins in both games. Keuchel & Verlander were outstanding as well as Altuve & Correa. Hope some other guys can get going offensively. It's nice knowing we have a well rested bullpen if needed but hope Morton and whoever goes in game 4 can give us 5-6 innings each. Nice having guys like Beltran and McCann who have played in NY to get the team ready for the atmosphere there.

I’m guessing Foreman’s Dad isn’t a Herman fan?
Judging from his twitter I would say not. He's not afraid to say what's on his mind, that's for sure.

Hope the defense gets a few stops down the stretch, looks like Watson is getting a little rythym going.
-
Glad I got to see him in April. He has always been one of my favorite rock and roll guys. After reading about him and watching a couple of documentaries on him, there may have been better singers, songwriters, and guitarists, but I can't think of anyone who purely loved rock and roll music the way he did. RIP!

Prayers up to those affected. That is terrible. I will never understand how people get to that level of pure evil.

I cracked up too, but one thing's for sure, she is not an RN.
One thing I learned a long time ago, if you constantly have to reassure people of something, or if you constantly are passive aggressively demeaning others by making yourself look superior to others (i.e. "I'm an RN, you probably don't even have a high school diploma, so therefore I am right and you are wrong, na na na na boo boo stick your head in doo doo."), then odds are what you are saying to people is completely made up. It's either that or there are some deep rooted self esteem issues that are trying to be compensated for. I personally don't care if someone has multiple doctorate degrees or an 8th grade education and a job as a port a can tester, either you can hold a meaningful debate or conversation or you cannot.

I hope they stay hot! Astros in 4!

Didn't see the Texans dropping 57 today... I'm so glad they traded up for Watson!

Gutsy putt on 18 but just wasn't his time to make one to win it. Going 4 playoff holes with one of the best young golfers on tour and earning 650k for a weeks work should help him bounce back. Hope to see him win one this year.
