ABC should do a feature about how a guy who works 40-50 hours a week at a dull job and has some extra money saved up and decides to put a little bit on the game to have some fun...he calls up some friends they have pizza and beer and watch the game together and the guy wins his bet and gets paid but if he lost it would be no big deal either b/c he can afford to lose. That's what it is like for most people.

Guy losing $400,000....that is so beyond the extreme. As usual the mass media focuses on a story that is not the norm....the guy sounds like a big square though.
