    Same thing happened in NY in 07 and 2012 with the giants

    If you’re in that position as a local you have to have multiple outs to edge the action away otherwise you can get buried

    Wow. Sorry to hear this. Whilst I hate the bookies one never wants to see them go out of business. This super bowl will have finished many. The only positive I guess is that people made a lot of money of their error on this game

    Some pro bookies in philly charging their emergency phones, ready to make THE CALL.

    End of Days just occured - Eagles won the SB and ledgers are lopsided the wrong way. They laid off NOTHING.

    So the bookie is hustling in overtime - all day today - collecting outstanding debts and buying a few days time from clients hungry for payout ...( there will be no payout for anyone )

    Still not much danger tomorrow afternoon comes, maybe it would start to get hot by Wednesday - but by then the phone call had already been made, he only had one number in the phone: JJGOLD

    ** phone rings **

    JJGOLD: Whoa, the bat phone ... this better be what I think it is...
    Bookie: Yeah hi JJ, it's me ... it's time.
    JJGOLD: And so it is, pal. One question: did you pack a bag? Are you ready to go - NOW?
    Bookie: Yes.
    JJGOLD: Okay good - listen to me very carefully and do as I say, you only get one shot at this.
    Bookie: okay...
    JJGOLD: There's a Popeye's on Walnut and South 48th. Go there and don't sit by the window. Be there in ONE HOUR.
    Bookie: Hey - one hour? I can't -
    JJGOLD: I SAID ONE HOUR! Or I don't send the van.
    Bookie: Okay, Popeye's on Walnut and South 48th. One hour. I got it coach.
    JJGOLD: Don't fuk me here, pal. I'm going out on a limb for you.
    Bookie: I know, I know. Thank you.
    JJGOLD: And don't forget to throw your phone in a sewer. One hour.

    **CLICK**

    Celebrations everywhere in Philly this week, but for a special few it's like they're evacuating Saigon all over again.

    Pats -0.5 Q1

    Pats any alt line you choose depending how risky you want to go. Pats will win in convincing fashion
