Wow, what a season of ineptitude by yours truly. Not only did I disappoint GT by failing to post for the previous two weeks, I am 1/15 on my parlays in this competition (fuck Alabama). The current standings are not pretty. I am down 103.05 and Ryan is down 17.43. Gambling is harder than it […]

What is the point of trying? I am feeling a bit like Gus, the world is against us and it may be time to give up. Two parlays go belly up, one because the Vikings can’t beat the lowly Lions and the other because Josh Allen can’t force Mac to whip out his cannon and […]

Happy Thanksgiving Wasted Talent. Things are not going well in fantasy or gambling. The standings: Ryan -$14.30, Josh -$90. Ouch. Last week all bets went sideways quick when the Bills and New Orleans got steam rolled. Real life joy, gambling sadness. For the rest of the competition I am in a position where my strategy […]

Big losses all around last week with the Colts busting Ryan’s under and the Bills screwing me in more ways than one. Josh, -$70, Ryan $5.70. This is a big pivot week (like every week) because I just need to hit one bet. When did parlays not hit over 50% of the time? Josh Parlay […]

Recap: Fuck the Bills and despite Ryan’s wishes, Josh did not change his ways. Just a reminder, this is the THIRD week that a single leg busted all parlays (6 total parlays busted (Alabama and Steelers responsible for the other busts)). Those are the unfortunate swings. FUCK THE BILLS. Adding insult to injury, the Cowboys […]

Week 2 was a week to forget for many of us. The Titans, a key bet for Ryan and I, lost to the god damn Jets and busted both parlays. The only ones happy with that result are Frank, who goaded me into taking a stupid bet, and Gus, who does not have to deal […]

Victory! The good news I needed on a night where my wife flips heads. What the fuck is that about? Tails never fails except for when this guy calls it on lotto night. Unlike that dreaded coin, I knew I could count on a few things: (1) The Titans scoring; (2) The Titans let others […]

With all due respect to Keegan, fuck that guy. This was my year. This was my miracle playoff run that he stole. Never has any team ever had an easier path to the Naomi. Jason never choked that hard any of the times I faced him in the finals. Bullshit. But I digress, this is […]

Wow. Taking the under and hitting in a game where the Pats scored 45 on their own. Miracles do happen and now we are at 7-6. I will call it what it is. Gus caught a bad break, but it evened out for MVS. Fuck that guy. A win this week and it is all […]
