so in a few minutes, I’ll be loading up the Buster and heading to leanne & brandon’s mansion in the hills to enjoy super-bowl-sunday. while I’m still considering any potential wagers, a recent SMS-convo with @st0ney helped put things in perspective:
me: hey I need wager advice: Saints are 5pt underdogs and the over/under is 57. Thinking of parlaying the over and Saints to win. A $100 bet wins $360. Thoughts?
@st0ney: Colts are going to win by 23 points, so factor that in…
me: LOL, well that would change my waging stratedgery.
me: also, I’m blogging that for the record.
@st0ney: you heard it here first: 30-7, Colts.
me: Damn. So you’d take the Colts, give NO 5pts and take the UNDER? that’s a helluva wager right there.
@st0ney: Has there ever even been a 57 point Superbowl? Scoring is always down in the sb.
me: Good question…if only there were some sort of information retrival device.
@st0ney: Only 5 times in the last 20 years have teams scored 57 or more and the last time was 2004.
me: Well, feck, now I don’t know what to do.
@st0ney: That’s why they call it gambling and not sure-thinging.
me: I just love having “action” on a big game.
@st0ney: I hate making rich people richer.
me: I know and what’s strange is that I don’t really gamble in vegas for that reason.
@st0ney: dude! Vegas was built by WINNERS!
