Had $50 at the start of the year for Storm/Hawks Falg duo

Pays off 900

Tonights probable multi

Stanton to lead Brownlow after 10 rounds, Cotchin to win Brownlow, Ablett not to get more than 28 votes, Brad Ebert to get most votes for a PAFC player

Multis are like birthday wishes I've found, if you reveal them they won't come true.

Spud Tippett won me a pineapple for first goal. Might slap it all on Mitchell for the Chas

How come police/security people can track someone anywhere via their mobile phone but when I lose mine there is no way to locate it? Seems I have to commit serious criminal/terrorism offences to get someone interested, which is surely counter-productive?

also, whats the deal with airline peanuts?

Had 3 legs of a 4-leg multi come in last night:

- Man United @ Liverpool (Man U win or draw)
- Newcastle vs Norwich (Newcastle win)
- Tottenham vs QPR (Totts win)
- 49ers @ Vikings (49ers -6.5)

Went to lay off on the Vikes at my chosen dotcom and they don't accept online bets between midnight and 7am (I assume to avoid dodgy European tennis plunges) and didn't want to feel like a degen gambler ringing it through at 2:20am - it's ok, the Niners are my shoe-in of the week... that's a pretty big shoe.

Nek minnit, Christian Ponder turns into Steve Young.

FUUUUUUUU-

I signed up for a Sportsbet account last Monday because I want to put some money on HH for most Port Brownlow votes. Then it said I needed a Paypal account, so I signed up for that. Then Paypal said it would take a couple of days to confirm my bank account, so I waited for that. Then I tried to transfer some money, and it's been 5 days and it still hasn't gone through and the Brownlow is tonight.

In summary, I tried to make this bet a full week in advance and it still hasn't gone through yet.

I've never been able to open the ****ing packets so I couldn't tell you Jerry.

You'll hit 35k posts before that. Got anything special for us?

 

[Schulzenfest]

If HH gets the most Brownlow votes for us, I'll film myself breaking into Paypal HQ and stealing my rightful 50 bucks.

Crows supporter brought McCarthy into an argument about their top 4 credibility. I called him an idiot. Apparently I was the one in the wrong there.

I missed you.

Didn't you used to not rate me? Or was that someone else.

Speaking of not rating posters, I think I've just found the single dumbest, most biased post of all time.

Cliffs:
Kurt Tippett is the prototype modern day footballer
Jay Schulz is a country footballer who would be worth a bus fare on the open market
Kurt Tippett kicking 4 goals on Schoenclangers proves that he's 10 times more valuable than Jay Schulz (despite Jay kicking 4 goals on the far better Josh Gibson last time we played Hawthorn)
It's unfair to take averages into account because Tippett was subbed out 3 times, even though Schulz was subbed out twice.
It's unfair to take averages into account because Kurt lost match-fitness due to his concussion outages, even though Schulz suffered a life-threatening injury against the Bulldogs and then kicked 4 goals against a former AA quality defender in his second game back.
Kurt Tippett's 7 hitouts per game is more valuable than Jay Schulz's extra goal per game, and anyone who suggests otherwise is stupid.
99.9% of neutral supporters would take Tippett ahead of Schulz.
Anyone who disagrees with any of the above is narrow-minded and biased.

Wow, that guy is seriously deranged. Has he even looked at spud tippets stats for the year? 1.9 average against Shultz with 2.8?
I have had many a belly laugh this year with "the spuds" attempts at slotting the easiest of goals.
Their board if a joke, I ended up with a red one for daring to suggest there may be an element of <cough>choking<cough> with the cows.
They like to dish it out but run to mummy when its aimed at them...

I'm on, $14 (sportsbet) is too good to pass up.

Dunno peanut allergy here

 

[DonDraper]

Had a multi last night but City not winning and Milan not holding on for a point ended that.

I go mental on GF day betting wise. Can't wait

 

[DonDraper]

Oh also Rory I thought of you on the weekend when Damien Duff scored and will definitely be getting on him for 1st goalscorer this weekend

I don't rate anyone. But I did miss you.

Tippetts main concussion injury was when he was dropped on his head as a baby and comparing his concussions to Schulz ending up in intensive care with life threatening internal injuries is laughable at best.

To me you're the angrier, younger me. Every time you post something aggressively correct, I think `oh good, now I don't need to do that, I'm so not in the mood to'.

gopower is the younger angrier all of us posters over the age of (cough ahem) 30.....

God love him for still having the energy.

 

[Portia]

That said, youngsters these days, and forums just aren't what they used to be, its an appalling drop in standards.
