The first thing I do after losing a game like last nights MNF debacle!

[Journeyman]

After getting my hand X-rayed and patching the whole in the wall, I contact each book and have my entire balances sent back to me!!! WTF!

I cannot win a TB MNF game! Whichever way I go the Bucs screw me on MNF! And of all coaches , sitting on that other sideline Tony Dungy ....Uggg I am sick this morning, thank goodness I watched it with my own eyes...I am sure many haven`t even realized they lost their Tampa Bay play yet this morning.....

Message loud and clear DON`T CHASE on tonights playoff game! Time to take up a new hobby for a couple weeks, I refuse to gamble after losing a game like that!

35 2nd half points against arguably the best defense on their home field....

A wonderfully officiated game by Johnny Greer and company, NOT!

Take out your balances take a week off!

I disagree, you change sports, try soccer, preseason nba or politics.

 

[GreenDoberman]

journey,
Best advice you gave yourself is a cooling off periond. Don't steam and chase, that will only make things worse, jump back in when you have a level head.

Journey,

Wait till next year's LLWS and just fade Rail's favorites....

 

[Dante]

were there people "Leaping" off buildings after that officiating debacle

 

[blueedwards]

tampa can't blame the officials on this one. they completely imploded in the second half. no repeat superbowl champ this year.

 

[Fishhead]

Dont let J-MAN fool you.....he will be in back in action no later than Thursday for the BYU-COLORADO ST. espn tilt.

 

[Axelp]

NHL OPENING NIGHT TOMORROW!!

Another day, Another dollar Jman.

I had TB and that was a remarkably unlucky loss. I don't see the point of getting too emotional over it though. We're gambling here and we win some we should not and vice versa.

I must say it was amusing...well, maybe not overtime field goal penalty, but we were only praying for luck at that point anyway.

Keep the head up Journey, you made the smart bet. It just happened to be the other side of the greatest comeback in NFL history

 

[Mr.Jones]

I'm wondering how many people here jumped on the Tampa/Washington line as this game ended. The injury situation was obvious and I believe [I may be wrong]the Bucs were -3.5 at that moment.

Now that would have been a smart bet, but I was too much in shock after the Lorena Bobbitt job on my unit to take advantage of it and of course it's off the board now. Not pulling the trigger on that one, IMO was a choke job on my part.

 

[Journeyman]

Guys I did go ahead and have every entire balance sent back to me today....I am not about to chase after that one...And I know damn well I would, and i know damn well many will!

Its just been one tough beat after another for me this year, whether its having a game canceled because of lightning that had no chance of losing, or a team scoring 21 in the final 4 minutes against an all time defense , I have lost them every which way...2003 has been brutal , I know they come back around but this is too much....

I was just sitting there thinkind, "damn I finally hit a Tampa MNF game" I flip it back and I see 35-28 I figure well its still no biggy, WRONG!

 

[Mr.Jones]

Maybe I'll join you Jman. Sure would be cool to have nine Fed Ex trucks pull up to the doorway about the same time.

 

[Oren1]

I was going to do the same thing, I was counting on this game to make up for Sunday's losses, and was counting my money in the 4th quarter... why can't I be on the other side of one of these games???? I can remember one miracle come-back that I won, but at least 2 that I lost, it's almost too much to endure. Betting on the NFL is a joke. I see a game I love and put a big bet on it, then something like this bullshit happens. Anyways I saw next week's lines and couldn't resist giving it another go, I doubt we're going to have 2 weeks in a row of this, things should return to somewhat normalcy next week. Tampa over the Redskins, Denver over the Steelers, Miami over the Jags, Bills over the Jets, the list goes on.

 

[nepenthe]

I cashed on this game

ahh to have a dirty referee and one of the worst chokes in the NFL history both on your side.

 

[Oren1]

what pisses me off is that I still believe that I was on the right side of this game. The first 3 quarters went exactly as I predicted they would, what happened in the last 4 minutes was an abberation.

 

[HacheMan]

J~Man, I won a parlay on the over and Indy +5, but being a lifetime Bucs fan, I am still pissed about the results. Man oh man, what happened. Absolutely unreal......
