We have a guy who sometimes sits with us at the Pitt basketball games and he gambles on everything during the games.
He's so fucking miserable all the time;
"I just need two more points in the final 0:04 seconds and I will win."
Pitt Hoops is difficult enough to watch I don't need some guy bitching about everything cuz he's losing $3,000 over a missed free throw.
I'm not against gambling. My barber, and most of them around here, ran numbers. I don't gamble because I value my $$ but, the lines, in sports, have been forever blurred.
I do find it completely nuts that for so many years gambling was never allowed anywhere near professional American sports and now, the commercials are on during games. And now, Pete Rose and Shoeless Joe Jackson have been cleared for the Baseball Hall of Fame.
It’s a perilous line they are asking everyone to tread.
Watched the last four minutes of the Cavs Collapse and I must say it’s always fun to watch anyone from Cleveland lose. The fans were shocked into silence. Too funny.
Helluva fight with Navarrete and Suarez. It was stopped due to what they said was a non-intentional head-butt/cut.
It is hard to tell whether or not it was the punch or a slight hit with the head. If you looked at Navarrete while they were waiting for the scorecards it looked as if he was saying the cut came when Suarez raked down on his face with the open-fist side of his glove. It looked like that could be accurate. They had to go with the call from the ring because the video replay was blocked by the fighters. In quotes after Navarrete said it was the head-butt.
The two were really fighting hard. Navarrete won a Technical Decision on the scorecards after the fight was stopped at the start of the 8th round. I don't see how Navarrete can stay at 130 because he can barely make that weight.
