The only movie part you would ever have a shot at would be on of these 8 heads...

You couldn't build a dog house for a stuffed animal HOVEL BUILDER and the only movie that YOU might qualify for are those home pornos that YOU and assup shoot when YOU are picking each other's dingleberries.

You think?

You call "playing" sports is "gambling"?

As soon as you saw how stupid your post is you changed your tune! That's pretty transparent ... but WTF does that also!

"Vegas" plays to stay "even"? The first time I was there I saw my first two piece bathing suit, and when I did my first fly over (really around) I could see "Vegas" ain't about "staying even"!!! There's a reason why I set aside "X" dollars for playing, and the first time I had a dealer switched it was rather apparent.

But you’re too stubborn or stupid to learn anything. Do you think casinos or bookies are gamblers? Is that how naive you are? They are not gamblers. They are business people. The successful ones are. They don’t take risks. When they EVEN their book, they want wagers equal on both sides. That’s how they gaurentee a profit. They don’t care who wins at that point. For example. Go to a bookie and lay a bet on the Cowboys. He will give you the LINE. That means how many points the Cowboys are giving or getting. You place a bet on the Cowboys. You will pay 10% if you lose. If you bet $100 and lose, you pay $110, if you win, you get $100. That’s how the game is played. No MSM, or marginalizing involved. A smart bookie wants equal money bet on both sides. He’s guaranteed a 10% profit. Just the way it is. Always has been. I’ll guess there’s heavy money on the Astros in Houston. Not because of the MSM. It’s because they’re betting on their team. A smart local bookie wants to “Lay” some of this bets to a different books to EVEN their book. Because if Houston wins, they lose a bunch of money. It’s not about emotion, polls, or anything else. It’s about making money. Now, you can be a chalooch, watch Meet The Press, and bet on the Texans this week. Because you are clueless about how to place a bet on sports. Good luck.

BTW, Sandy Koufax is still one fine looking Jew. One of the best of all time. Maybe he’ll pitch game 7.

To be honest, I thought the Stros with Verlander would win tonight. But there’s nothing better than a game 7. No matter what sport. But a Stanley Cup game 7 is the most intense and physical.

Gonna be a good game , I like Lance's chances! Hopefully he can get it to the 7th and Peacock can take over....


Oh and I wonder what the media is going to set the odds at?

Game seven is probably going to depend on which Yu Darvish shows up for the Dodgers. If he hits his spots it will be Dodgers all the way. If he goes like game 3 he'll get lit up like the 4th of July.

OK, I have lived in Texas for close to a decade now. Would not be unhappy to see the Astros win, BUT I grew up listening to Vin Scully (the ABSOLUTELY GREATEST baseball announcer) broadcasting Dodger games. I remember sitting behind the left field screen at the LA Coliseum before they moved to Chavez Ravine. Hell, my first professional baseball game I saw was the PCL Los Angeles Angels at Wrigley Field LA. [B]GO DODGER BLUE!!!![/B]

watched part of the game at Hooters. todays my bday. free dinner!

why are there so many hairy guys on the teams????

reminds me of a movie where a minor league team went up against a team that all wore long beards. Blackbeards was the name of that team I think. don't remember the name of the movie.

You are the poster child for "internet genius"!

I suppose you buy into that shit about me living in a basement, blah, blah, blah ... Someone challenges you on your ignorance and you go get testy .... again .... WTF-like!

You are the one who proclaimed the betters set the odds. Not me!

Then WTF claims "Vegas" (who ever the fuck that is) sets them! And you chime in about trying to tell me that, but I have a hard head .... So I ask you where you posted that ... you get all belligerent and antagonistic about it .... (a failed defensive response to getting your ass caught in your bullshit!).

Based upon your REACTION I have good reason to believe I started "gambling" before you were born. My first winnings out of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and the only "sports" I've bet on where horses and dogs a bit. Last night was a good example of why not to bet on team sports. I never have, and never will, although I have had plenty of friends who have and do, and I'm familiar with their bets ... probably more on a weekend than you make in a month ... so I, unlike you, listen and learn.

So WTF is full of shit according to you .... again ... not every Astros fan bets on the Astros and vice versa. So from where do they get their information about who is a good pitcher and who bats well in a given situation? From the "bookie"????

So that's how you "play" sports ... call the "bookie" and ask where to place your bet????

Or better yet: Call your "bookie" and ask him who is going to be pitching for the Dodgers, what their 7th game experience is, and what their 7th game record is .... at home with the Dodgers. Then ask your "bookie" what the batting averages are of the Astros hitters against the Dodgers' starter and "closers" for today's game! Who does your "bookie" say to bet on for game 7?

Go pretend with someone else. I'm not impressed (nor are my friends!)

(Did it really take you 4 hours to look your bullshit up on the internet? Man! You are slow!)
