It is funny to see Clare Danes isn't actually acting just being herself. Jodie Foster just went off her rocker, I think, but nobody really seems to know what just happened. The tabloids are gonna love this. It included a shout out to Mel Gibson which was then muted.

anyone have any thoughts on what lines will move and by home much?I like Baltimore +9.5. Also think SF wins but I'd like that line to come down a point from -3.5 but I dont think the public is liking ATL enough to sway it down to -2.5

Other than Bender having great hair and DD being black, I got nothing.
I also masturbate frequently... often involuntarily.

After that win yesterday, I'm starting to believe something magical/spiritual is going on in honor of Ray.

I am doing my final +13PT 4 team teaser of the 2012-2013 NFL season. Going with BAL +22, ATL +16.5, BAL/NE O38.5, SF/ATL O35.5 for a unit.ETA: Bought a point, getting me to BAL +23, ATL +17.5 (Want 2 TD's and a FG there), BAL/NE O37.5, SF/ATL O34.5. Think the point on the over's and ATL are worth paying for it.anyone have any thoughts on what lines will move and by home much?I like Baltimore +9.5.

My real name is Jeff. I'm 35. I've been told I bear a passing resemblance to one of the starting QB's for one of the remaining teams in the NFL playoffs.* I have a wife who I've dated since I was 22, and a house and a kid and another one on the way, and we picked out a name today I think. My job is pretty boring. I can see the Oakland Coliseum from the top of my street. I'm an admin. at a message board that's populated by people from this message board who talk about their beautiful roosters. I'll now open the floor to questions.* -

I'm Marty. 29, recently single, accountant who cut his teeth in auditing and got to travel the world in my mid-20's on the company dime. Live in central NJ now for work in northern NJ, but born/raised/went to school/started working in Philadelphia. Love 13 PT NFL teasers and EPL dogs over +1500. Thanks for letting me hang around the tree house and tail some of the plays in here as we commemorate 1k in pages. Let's hope there's never a page 666 ever again!

I can't tell you my name because people who don't like me here could find me. I work for the Department of Defense, have for many years. I have worked in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and a lot of other ####ty places. Also worked in great places like Moldova and South Africa and lived in Europe almost 15 years. Worked at Fox, Fox Sports Net and with Foxy Brown.
I have two small terriers who think they are 100 pounds but are easy to transport, I've nailed a lot of curvy/heavy broads and I love the Detroit Tigers more than almost any human (not more than my dogs though). I have a Monsters.com resume that says "Invented Penis Pump" as the only work experience entry, and I'll watch a Tuesday night hockey game between the Senators and Islanders because I'm ill. I like to rap and wrap, people bring me rhymes and presents all the time.
I live in Metro DC, PM me if you ever are in town and want to catch a Nats or O's game.

DD,- Have you ever walked 50 miles for dental work?- Have you ever been to that greaseball Les Gold's pawn shop on 8 Mile Road?
Hell, why not.
Hi. I'm Loser, and I'm an alcoholic. 40 YO in precisely two weeks. Navy vet, current dealer/bartender (different jobs), working on my BA (finally). I guess I'm like Homer without the trunk full of wine coolers.
Paleish. 6'0, 170, Judd Nelson Breakfast Club haircut. Working on that.
No wifey, no kids. Block from the beach in FL, sweet ~50 lb mutt that gets his own personal playground every night round 3 AM.
Can't beat it.

I am whiteI am 29 with 3 young boys and a wifeI am in production planning and procurement at a big food processing companyI am 6 foot and currently weight 197 lbs. I am not good looking...would probably say a 4. I dont know what my body fat is, so that probably means its high. Been told, by Tasker, that I look like JJ Watt. Except smaller....I have a 65 lbs mutt (German Shepherd/Collie mix). I am very handy around the house as I just finished my basement all by myself about 6 months ago.

Bet sports only? or do you play poker too? Just curiousTakes a special type of person to gamble for a living. I considered leaving my job 2 years ago to do this for a living after several successful years and increased income...sure glad I didn't, had a losing year in 2011 and a miniscule winning year last year.

I used to play poker full-time all through school, then Black Friday hit
I still play some live, but it's maybe only 5% of what I bring in. Playing poker helped harden my shell, no type of beat phases me anymore - pretty much seen it all.It definitely takes a special type of person and I'm pretty sure it's something I don't want to do for the rest of my life. I love it now and I'm young, so why not? Just doing it until I figure out which business opportunities I want to get into.

Poker is all I did for 10 months when I was temporarily laid off. Live poker that is. It was a great time for me, but really needed some guaranteed income after having my first losing month. I think the key for me was always playing in games that I could handle as opposed to trying to be a hero and sitting in some 100/200 NL match. I played 1/2 only and made enough to pay the bills, but not enough to enjoy my life, however, whenever I would go up to 5/10 or higher it became too much of a grind. Too easy to lose 5 percent of bankroll in one hand when I made a mistake. 1/2 players at the casinos tend to be drunk dudes or people who don't play much. As much as I dreamed of sitting down with James Woods, I was playing for rent money. 1/2 can be a really easy game if you are at the right casino and there during the right time (weekend nights mainly).I used to play poker full-time all through school, then Black Friday hit

fun game, wish I was good enough to play full time on a permanent basis at a higher stakes, but I'd get eaten alive at anything higher than 2/5.
ETA: I still play 30 hours or so a week now, but I'm way too in love with craps to make any more and actually bring it home with me.
I play 30 hours of poker a week to support my 5 hours per week Craps habit.

I hear ya, when you have those losing months, it really makes you reconsider.I suck now because I rarely play, anything higher than 2/5 would likely kill me, too. I'm pretty much exclusively a tournament player, so the variance of those realllly made it difficult to keep sane.Poker is all I did for 10 months when I was temporarily laid off. Live poker that is.

Not sure if this will have an effect. Louisville had their flight delayed due to fog. They fly in today and will not have their shoot around.
I thought he was a favorite so was surprised to see this line. IN.
thoughts on Emmanuelle Riva at 20:1?Seems like there's some momentum for her and Amour.EDIT: screw it. I'm in at those odds on SB. this story had her at 6-1.
