Default A shot at $100,000

I am wondering whether anybody here is participating in the Wagerline.com contest.

The rules are simple : go 21-0 and win a cool $100,000.

The odds of winning such a contest sound insurmountable. Not so fast, a guy is on a 19-0 streak right now and needs only 2 more wins to win the big prize.

Oh man this guy has got to be having a massive stroke and a heart attack to boot. Ohio has not scored in 5 minutes and now down 3 with 1 minute to go.

COME ON OHIO!!!! Give this guy a break!

Well, Neil's fired. Time for me to solo Dandy Don for our player..

"Turn out the lights......the party's over...."

It was a heck of a nice run. Hope he gets something for going 19-1

Default So close but yet so far away

He didn't make it.

This must be a heartbreaker to come this close and choke at the end.
