lock of the week

Pac 12 championship.
This Friday, UCLA at Oregon.

The Oregon ducks are 32 point favorites. this is a championship?

My pick: Take UCLA and the 32 points.

Oregon is a great football team, they are super talented and very good. and their jerseys are sick. UCLA has had an up and down year. last week, they lost to USC my 50 points. but if you were watching that game, it was closer than it looks. i don't have time to explain, just trust me. 32 points is way too much. i see UCLA losing by 29-31 points. It's Rick Newhauselsel's last game as UCLA coach, and he's going out with a UCLA COVER. take the points

UCLA 13
Oregon 44

Flavored tootsie rolls

Best candy ever. in my Tracy room this weekend, and found some old flavored tootsie rolls. Probably 3 years old. I remember as a senior in high school and a freshman in college, I would go to the 99cent store and buy 15-20 bags at a time, No lie. Best candy ever and it's very very close

in the news again

if my frozen FTP money was in my account (and not my friend's account), i definitely would've sold it by now

ask me 9 months ago if full tilt poker is safe? I would've said yes, 100%
ask me today if online sportsbooks are safe? I'd say probably.

slashy

just setting it straight.
if i were a stud high school football player, i'd go to the university of MIAMI.
stud soccer player, i'm going to Pepperdine
if i were a stud basketball player, i'd go to Memphis, where the girls are half as smart and thus..
if i were a stud baseball player, i'd go to the university of Texas.
if i were super genius in high school, i'd go to M.I.T. so when people ask me where i went to college. i can say "MIT, NBD though."
if i were a locked out NBA player, i'd go overseas and ball it up in Spain.

thanksgiving day, 49ers +3.5 at ravens. 49ers are undefeated against the spread. not bad. of course i bet the 49ers exactly 1 time, that's about right. 9 wins and 1 push? damn. it's so easy, just bet the 9ers and bet stanford, you should do ok. but no, didn't like them.
9ers -4 against the bengals, didn't like it.
9ers -3.5 vs giants. nah, eli's hot
9ers -9 vs. cleveland. too many points
9ers +40 against philly, pass.
9ers -4 at washington, TRAP GAME. oh
9ers +4.5 at detroit, detroit is good
and this thanksgiving game? i finallyyyy like the 9ers. is this a bad sign? is this the week the 9ers don't cover. i'm torn, my gut says to bet the 9ers. but i feel like i'm late to the 9ers betting party. do i just go with my gut. or do i level myself and go with the ravens since i'm "feeling" the 9ers side. or should i do the ivey-swag-reverse-shimmy-sham and bet the 9ers in massive size!!!!
nope, no swag
i think i'll bet the under.



i miss online poker and i miss the NBA.

8pm: I don't really know what to write, so I'll just wait

2:15am: I thought it was a good idea to write " Oregon +3.5 manny -1000 EZ money"

but talk is cheap, i didn't take oregon +3.5 vs. stanford

Friday

8 monitors is better than 6

movie

saw paranormal activity 3. was scary as balls. pretty sure it's scarier then the 1st and 2nd one. i don't really "like" scary movies, but sort of like that feeling of "oh shit". maybe it's the mini-sweat. paranormal 3 revolved around 2 kids. this reminded me of when derek and i were younger. i remember a game that derek wanted to play. at night, derek would make me walk down the hallway with all the lights off. the rules of the "game" were basically: i have to make it from one end of the hallway to the other side of the hallway. derek would get to scare me. after he scared me, i would have to do it a couple more times until he got bored. its funny to think back on it now. i remember he was super genius a couple times. one time he tied a string to a door, then pulled the string as i walked by. and when i heard the door move, i thought he would be behind it, but then he would scare the shit out of me from my blindside. those hurt, derek always won. i lost

easy money. the manny pacquaio fight is on saturday, odds are -1000. bet $100 to make $10. or as jon would say, bet $1 to win a dime. after watching 24/7 on HBO, i've concluded that manny is way better at boxing than his opponent. he is going to win 100% of the time. yeah, the risk to reward ratio is not that favorable. BUT, it don't matta. tip: bet the farm on Manny packyao. NOT betting on manny at -1000 is like walking by money on the street. you would never walk by a $20 bill on the street, same thing. THE FARM. BET IT. or as hot-shot ucla-dentistry Russell would say, "i'd bet my future practice on it". thisss guyyyyyyyyyy

GRoupon is public. shizzz. i want a shirt that says GRPN. next 3 interesting IPOs. Angie's list, yelp, and Zynga. i like zynga. before the online poker sites went down, zynga was believed to fuel the next big poker boom. combining facebook games and online poker. yum

cards

def not worth $700
