well i do...a hot tempered hot blooded italian...around 50 or so years old...
this fu-king guy was trying to tell me the Patriots should be -6 this week vs the Jets IN GILLETTE...i called him every name in the book...it really really got heated at one point...then he goes into telling me how he has been gambling for years and year etc (BIG FUC-KING YAWN)..and if he does bet he's the typical sunday morning paper bettor...this guy couldnt hold my jock when it comes to sports and lines and betting....i shoulda dropped it when he said 6 and just said SURE but of course...that didnt happen...i tried to explain how the line could NEVER be Pats-6 at home....-2 on a NEUTRAL FIELD!!!...it didnt sink in......he was insistant the line should be Pats-6......
after that subsided we started argueing about why the Pats were 3pt dogs last week in Tenn....he didnt understand people thought the pats might mail it in and how we werent sure if they would play their starters the whole game...i said the line would be pats -3 in tennessee if BOTH teams were playing for the last playoff spot...and that week17 line only happens in certain situations...he said vegas doesnt make mistakes when they make the lines of course at the time i was so wound up i forgot to throw in his face the carolina/NO line that opened NO-3 and closed Carolina -3....and how that was a 6pt move from the opener...
it took me about an hour to calm down :smoking: (i dont smoke)
