    Somebody Bet A Million Bucks Against Bill Belichick and Tom Brady in the Super Bowl; don't suppose you know anything about this? [​IMG]

    Imagine having a million bucks. Then imagine wagering a million bucks on a game. Now imagine wagering a million bucks against Bill Belichick and Tom Brady in a Super Bowl.

    Some crazy loon has done exactly that, reports ESPN

    i had a dream i was working at my old job and made a stupid comparison to the thing i was working on to the thing a coworker was working on.
    boss explained how my job was different and i explained i knew that but we were using some of the same items.
    at the time the boss was walking around with some corporate guys
    one of them that i never saw before comes up to me and starts telling me a long winded explanation that i didnt understand a word of
    (in the middle of his "speech")
    i can feel myself waking up. i was at that point where you dont know where you are or whats going on but you know you are dreaming. i can see the dream and this dude fading to black and at that exact moment i say to him "i have to wake up now you are boring me"

    Here I was thinking that I caught this cold from someone at the baby shower last weekend, and I come to find out that it was my son and daughter-in-law next door.

    He came over to get borrow something and starting talking about them having this damn cold too.

    He has it so bad that he sat in the truck while the oldest girl played softball yesterday. That's sick for him!

    Then hubby said the daughter-in-law was "sick as shit" when he saw her Friday morning.

    I don't have a ton of symptoms, just sinus and fever; but I'm just really sick feeling - if you know that feeling. It feels like it's a step and a half away from being "The Flu".

    Hubby left about a half hour ago.

    This neighborhood is like a ghost town. Very few people are home and the ones that are home are extremely quiet; like they are napping before the game.

    I don't like the lead up to big games when my team is playing hehe. It's the worst. You just want the game to start.

    I haven't really been watching or reading anything but I hope Atlanta isn't being cocky because that's what will be their undoing.

    When Denver went in cocky few years back they went down hard, Seattle was cocky the next year and went down. When I saw the Panthers carry on last year, I knew Denver would beat them down because they'd learned from the previous couple of years.

    I think New Englands approach will be as good as always. I'm still going to back Atlanta. :)

    thats why i record the games too. so when it starts with all the bullshit fanfare...i am playing xbox or watching last weeks blacklist. then when i am done i can fast forward all that shit.

    atlanta is the better team but it should be realll close. and i would say if gronk is 100% it will once again go down to a field goal

    If it's close, maybe it will be Atlanta by 3.

    I just had a look at 2017 rankings for pool.

    In my state division I am currently ranked at #7 and for the entire state of Bavaria I am 29th :)

    Congratulations Irminsul

    I played last night. I ended up hitting in more balls of my opponent.

    I went back to playing beer pong....

    Hehe. Ah well you just gotta stick with it. :D
    Actually bit of disinformation, that's just my percentage ranking over the first three rounds of this season. My proper ranking is still high 100s but that should be getting better with the more games I play and win. I won't find out my true ranking until after trials mid year. I just hope I keep up my momentum and keep shooting well until then. :)

    I should actually be better than 29th as I can see 5 other people have a less percentage than me at 66% and I'm 70% but they've "won more games" by playing more, they probably get 4 games a round where I usually get 3. So they have "more wins" but a less percentage. Or something.

    I'm gonna the THAT GUY and say it:

    SO relieved that the Superbowl is tonight and I finally stop hearing about football for a while. So over it, especially, Tom Brady, who seems to be a bit of a god around here.

    Congratulations!

    It's even a bigger accomplishment than that considering that you haven't been playing long at all!

    I'm tired and I'm getting hungry.

    My granddaughter brought over some food. She said it's pizza and wings. I think I'm going to get into that in a minute.
