ill go five if we like different teams

I said last night to my buddy that I thought the perfect line would be UConn by 3.5 or 4. Sportsbook has it at 3.5 right now, so I really don't have much of a lean. If you hold a gun to my head (which you wouldn't because you hate guns), I would probably pick Butler +3.5. But I wouldn't like it that much.

Freddie wasn't really ever very fast, you know.

i like butler but dont really wanna do it...however i will if you want uconn and wanna bet just to bet

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Nah, I'll bet the game anyway, I'm sure. Might as well just keep it at 25. Next time we have a stellar disagreement, we can go double or nothing, and you can pay me the 50 after I win. Or we're square. I don't see the point in sending a check for that amount.

Butler +3

Butler +3 & o129.5 parlay

Johnny come lately, but I did bet UConn and the under just before tip. UConn saved me Saturday and today from losing an absolute crapload.

But I still lost a minor crapload.

The only reason I check this thread every now and then is to see if anyone took a beating.  Thanks for brightening my day. 

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I haven't shared all of my beatings, but let's just say that I understand that I am paying for the entertainment of gambling and don't delude myself into thinking that it can be profitable long-term.

Just a reminder since this clown changed his screen name and the bet was made 94 pages ago. Chicago will be a tough matchup.

Will the Miami Heat make it to the NBA championship series in 2010-2011?

Yes: rjs246
No: King Cole The BIGSTUD
$50

[ice grillin you]

[rjs246]

Yeah, no shtein.

The Heat made the Celtics look worse than the Sixers. They're coming together at just the right time. I, for one, am happy for them.
