My neighbor, the idiot.

**Trikflow77** · 02-02-2008 08:47 PM

So my neighbor to my left is a funny story. He is a hispanic guy that won the lottery for like 500k after taxes. So he moves his family out of the gutter and buys a brand new house. They are pretty domesticated, nice people and all that. So throughout the year he would come over to my house drunk and want to bet on football games. We would usually bet 50-500 bucks on games, and i CRUSHED him because he only bets games "straight up" meaning no spreads involved. So i would pick big favorites most of the time and crush him.

He came over last night and wanted to bet me 5k on the GIANTS STRAIGHT UP. Booked and money escrowed.......WHAT A FISH SHIP IT!!!!!!

**Sykedupp** · 02-02-2008 08:53 PM

**a500lbgorilla** · 02-02-2008 08:54 PM

Ah the famous hustle...

**will641** · 02-02-2008 09:00 PM

wow. can you put me down for 1k?????

wouldnt you feel a little bad if you took so much money off this guy he had to move his family back in the gutter?

**EzDuzIt** · 02-02-2008 09:03 PM

yeah go back to him and try to put more on it, like as much as you are comfortable with... and then if he will go more than that do it and sell off the extra action to FTR.

**gabe** · 02-02-2008 09:11 PM

ha ez money

he payed cash for the house so that isnt going to happen, and he has a job as a truck driver or something. I wanted to bet as much as he would, and 5k was his max.

**givememyleg** · 02-02-2008 09:30 PM

lucky!!!!

**Lukie** · 02-02-2008 11:27 PM

the title was better then the actual post, which surprisingly turned out pretty good too

**ensign_lee** · 02-03-2008 03:56 AM

lol; you could hedge that out to make a profit no matter what happened.

the only appropriate response.

**Silly String** · 02-03-2008 07:57 PM

Variance is a bitch. Even my sets get 2 outed sometimes. I guess at least you got your money in good though.

**Irisheyes** · 02-03-2008 11:42 PM

Trik you're the king of hustle.

**ensign_lee** · 02-04-2008 12:46 AM

I learned my lesson with my bet against spenda.

You can still have a position, just not have yourself exposed on the losing side at all.

Especially when you have in essence

one bet at +100
and the other at +400

**WildBobAA** · 02-04-2008 01:53 AM

That Manning to Tyree pass was one of the sickest things I've ever seen.

Manning fluked not throwing an interception on that drive. Tyree deserves a hell of a lot of credit if the Giants win for that ridiculous catch he just made.

**WildBobAA** · 02-04-2008 01:58 AM

Wow if the Giants hold on that's one of the greatest drives ever. so so so sick

That was a pretty sweet catch. Half right hand, half right side of head.

**mcatdog** · 02-04-2008 02:02 AM

I can't decide which Patriot's face I'm most excited to see after the game

-Brady
-Belichick
-Bruschi
-Rodney Harrison

so many contenders

The fact that Manning avoided the sack on that play after being basically wrapped up makes it even crazier.

**flomo** · 02-04-2008 02:23 AM

**WildBobAA** · 02-04-2008 02:25 AM

The only bad thing about this game is listening to those fuckasses from the 72 Dolphins gloat.

**mojoNOgo** · 02-04-2008 02:26 AM

i just threw up a little in my mouth .

**Jack Sawyer** · 02-04-2008 02:28 AM

I think we just witnessed what will forever be referred to as

"The Upset"

**ensign_lee** · 02-04-2008 02:29 AM

Your neighbor cost himself at least $15,000 by placing that bet with you instead of a book. Hoooooly crap.

it could be worse if the pats won and we had to listen to them gloat for another 40 years

Dear Patriots,

We welcome you to the "Huge Season/Die in the Finals" Hall of Shame.

**Pythonic** · 02-04-2008 03:12 AM

You can blame this loss on Belicheck. Who tries to convert a 4th and 13 over kicking a 48 yard field goal in a dome to make it a 7 point lead. That was the worst play call I've seen in my entire life.
