I have a funny story with MG Man. This was probably 20 years ago and I get some tickets to the Timberwolves game. We meet at a bar and go to the game. We made a bunch of bets on basketball and of course we bet on the Timberwolves game. We bet the first half side, total and parlayed them. Did the same for the game. At half time we called off shore and took some more. We killed it that night and probably won a few dimes on the Timberwolves.

So after the game we did what any degenerate gambler would do at the bar......we got hammered. We were buying shots and drinking like two sailors about to get on a ship for 6 months. MG Man looked like Gumby without the wire ( I was probably Pokey without the wire). It is getting close to closing time and like two idiots we leave the bar. I must have stopped to use the bathroom or something because he was ahead of me leaving. I get about two blocks from the bar and I see MG Man's Mercedes pulled over by a police officer. I thought this is not going to go over well on the home front. His wife will never let him go out with me again.

I took the back roads home and made it home safely. Definitely should not have been driving. I waited until the following afternoon to call MG Man thinking he would maybe be sober by this time and find out how it went at home after getting a DWI. When I got a hold of MG Man to my total shock and surprise he didn't get a DWI or a ticket.

When he got home sloppy drunk his wife was there to meet him and she wasn't very happy. She scolded him and told him if he would have got stopped he would have definitely gotten a DWI. Yes dear you are right and it is a good thing I didn't get stopped....with a straight face.

Based on the time of night close to bar closing time and how much he had had to drink I am totally shocked he didn't get a DWI.....would have wasted all the winnings on lawyers and fees. No one got hurt and it is a fun story twenty years later.

Looking at another prop bet for tonight if you like prop bets. I am kind of liking them They are a fun change and I need some variety in 2020.

So how did he get out of getting a DWI??

I am kind of liking these player props bet. It is like finding a new sex position that you like.

Might have one for the late game so check back. Try to enjoy Thanksgiving 2020.

I looked at the stats and Houston rank last in rush defense and Detroit ranks 3[SUP]rd[/SUP] worse. So right away you would think that their opponent will run the ball. I just don’t think that is going to happen because on the flip side they both stinks running the ball. Houston ranks 31 and Detroit 29. David Johnson is out because of a concussion. Duke Johnson averages 2.8 yard per attempt.

So, I think Houston will have to pass the ball. Their third receiver Cobb is going to IR. So, it should mean more catches for Fuller and Cook. Additionally, Detroit has injuries at cornerback. I debated between the two and they both look good at over 5.5 catches for the game. They probably will both go over the 5.5 catches, but I am going with Fuller over 5.5 catches minus 105.

The thing that put me over is the recent stats. In the last 4 games his average target distance is just 9 yards. So more of a control type receiver. Shorter passes should mean more likely reception. I just think the passing numbers will be higher than the season averages.

As always good luck and enjoy the game!

You should take both Fuller and Cooks Over 5.5 Receptions. Last week the Lions gave 3 different receivers 7 or more receptions each.

First my Mercedes was red which is the favorite color for cops to pull over. But having a tail light out didn’t help. He asked me where I’d been and I told him the Timberwolves game. Granted that ended three or more hours prior. When he asked me questions I was short with my answers and never turned my head towards him so he might not smell my breath. When he came back from running the check on me he said to get my tail light fixed and drive safely. I was sober until I got home and my wife interrogated me. Great night made lots of money and got lucky on no DWI.

What did you get it at? My book was only offering O4.5 at -190 so had to pass.

I got O4.5 (-157) on my Rivers local book.

Incredible prop run, Northern Star! "Like learning a new sex position." Shit had me ROFL!

Thanks for another winner.
