Has our hero hit rock bottom? He is hoping that his online sportsbook/poker accounts have hit bottom, but you can always go lower....They say that you have to hit rock bottom before you get help for an addiction, but if the addiction is profitable...

MSU beats ND!!! HaHaHaHa!!!/Why I've been talking Football instead of Poker Lately

Well, we're halfway into a weekend of football, and my teams are 1-1. Michigan State beat Notre Dame 44-41(OT), after allowing a ridiculous comeback, and Boston College blew their lead and lost 28-17 to Florida State. My teams were outscored 0-28 in the fourth quarter

I'm not talking about games I actually bet on, those are just the colleges I attended.

You see, I didn't bet on ANY games for this weekend.

Take that, you twelve-step bastards! I AM NOT AN ADDICT!! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Where was I?

Well, the last couple of years my interest in sports betting has spiked in the autumn, not just because of football season, but because I have to go to the field for several weeks. You see, I am stationed in Korea, in the U.S. Army. Between Winter and the rainy season (a.k.a. Summer) are the only months with good weather for training. While my job permits me frequent access to a computer, as well as semi-frequent trips to the rear, DOD computers do not allow gambling, so no poker.

That is why I dedicate myself to handicapping the NCAA & NFL. All I need to place a bet online is a quick trip to the rear. I can research my bets while in the field--or at least meditate on them. Meanwhile my poker languishes. While we are languishing, let me add that I have only played poker online for two years now, so my brick and mortar poker has languished as well. I previously refrained from telling anything personal about myself because I really do not want this blog to have anything to do with the military. Since my blog has pretty much exclusively discussed football handicapping at the expense of poker, however, I figure I owe all 3 of my readers an explanation.

That was my explanation.

Yeah, that's it.

What do you want? My Blood???

How about a stool sample? Fingerprints? Psych Evaluations? What?!?!?!

Meanwhile, several games transpired which I was considering betting on. Vanderbilt came through against Ole Miss, 31-23, covering the 3.5 point spread, Wake Forest beat East Carolina 44-34, failing to cover as 13.5 point favorites, Cal failed to cover the number (21.5) vs. Illinois, winning 35-20, Wisconsin beat North Carolina and the number(3.5), 14-5, Arizona State, a 15 point favorite, handled Northwestern, 52-21, Auburn manhandled Ball State 63-3, easily covering the 37.5, while North Texas, a 4-5.5 point favorite vs. Tulsa, managed to lose 54-2! So the teams I earlier expressed interest in went 5-3, despite the North Texas loss, easily the worst pick I've ever made. Arguably the most accurate pick I made was a non-pick, as I was considering going either way on GATECH(-14.5 to -17) uconn, and Tech won 28-13, middling the lines--though mostly I think UConn covered, as I only saw the 14.5 spread once.

Before I say another word, lelt me just sy thata LG International keyboards SUCK! The keys either don't typ unless you trikee them hard, or they ddouble strike? I hahavee been spending much mmore ime editiing than actually writing. See what I mean? I do't think I'll be blgging mmuch more until I get anoother keyboarrd. This thing reall SUCKS ASS!
