So the White Sox didn’t make it into the play offs. Yeah not good. Then they trade my favorite player. But not just trade him, they sent him to the dodgers. The dodgers! ( this is said in the form of the voice that only the word lamentation could fully describe.) At least they’re still in it so I can see my boy Thome a little longer before he retires. Downside is the Cardinals got knocked out but they deserved it. They didn’t play well enough: simple.
Then the Red Sox got knocked out YAY!!!! That leaves the Yankees and Angels. Can’t wait for that series this week, I may watch all of it.
Which brings me to my next problem. The Rockies are playing the Phillies and well, the Rockies aren’t doing well but the announcers are so firkin boring. It’s like Bob and Doug McKenzie calling the World Cup fo Soccer. You know those two canooks have no clue about that! Neither do these guys and they sound tired.
Now keep in mind I am in Central Time, the game is in Mountain time so its after 11 here and it MAY put me to sleep!!!!! It just may.
I had a rough weekend on the betting side. Missed a big money maker Thursday with Nebraska and Mizzou by 1 frikin point! 1!!!!!!! Picked them right though but took the over under bet and missed! My fault. And then on Saturday I broke my rule and bet on a Tennessee game. Only I didn’t bet on them I bet against them. Never bet on Tennessee in any form unless it’s the Lady Vols Basketball team.
Then for pro football I got my big game bet right on the money. Then we made another parlay with four games. Indianapolis came through in fine fashion, so did Philly and so did Pittsburgh. But that firkin crazy San Francisco didn’t even win their game let alone make the spread. Sigh…missed out on some dough there but didn’t really lose a lot of money. I am actually sitting with a nest egg of 66% profit for the weekends activities. I will be parlaying that this next week into another small tidy lump sum as well. Hopefully exponentially.
I only see four games right now worthy of betting on PRO. Not touching baseball till the world series. College is going to have to be Florida playing New Orleans school for the dead before I touch it. But basketball is coming up and My honey will be giving me insight on Hockey as soon as it becomes viable for betting.
So I sit each weekend and always wind up with a problem on my fantasy team. I usually have two or three players that depend on the guys players I am playing to succeed and I usually have a bet on the team they play for to lose which makes it hard to enjoy much. But it does make for an exciting day! So I will continue!
Anyway, that’s my sin for the week. Back to watching the playoffs!
Well, you picked pretty well...*I* was the one that picked that SF game. Who knew they'd be blown out of the water so badly? Well, you sorta knew. Sigh.
