    Default One of those weekends...

    I've had losing streaks before. It goes with the territory... But this was one of the most PAINFUL I've ever had.

    I don't watch most of the games, so I check various sites to grade my plays. The body count for the weekend: 3 Arena halftime plays lost by 1/2 a point. 2 NCAAW lost by 1/2. Throw in some 1/2 point losers in NCAAB, and you're ready to throw your hands up in the air.

    Gotta say last few days got me feelin kinda cocky. Today basketball was just fukin unreal, I mean wtf is up with teams like Davidson coming back from fukin 200 down all the time, I mean wtf is going on, you are sitting there with money on Georgetown and fukin writing it down as money in your account then you fukin look up the scores and it's like a 20-0 run by DAVIDSON??? I mean what the hell, I hope I'm asleep right now and this is a fukin nightmare.

    It will take me years to recover from my losses this weekend, if ever. You can be sure I will never let my kids go to Pitt or Georgetown. Those two schools have taken enough of my money.

    I've been there and done that before myself Justin. In fact I lost a total heart breaker with Butler +4.5 today, so I can sympathize with those 1/2 point bad beats.

    May I object on behalf of all streaks?

    It that kind of luck continues for a year, then we have a streak.

    Just my way of making you feel better.

    good luck justin, we've all been there. This month has been horrendous for me. I've lost over 10% of my roll this month, plus the BJO fiasco (where I don't know where I stand yet).

    You'll be going 9 and 1 and winning those 1/2 pointers shortly.
