    ...i didn't, but i've definitely been there before.

    i'm glad i stayed away from this game. i know the colts ended up getting the job done with the 3 point spread but it was still a total sucker line and took a miracle.

    I ended up cashing on the colts -3 and the Over in the second half because of that debacle.....it was nice having something like that happen in my favor

      No but I did have the under and was sick when Sage went up in the air and fumbled the ball. Sick last few minutes for the under.

        I got a push, so I'm fine. But I'm steamed, knowing it was so damn close.
        Worse game ever for me was when the New Orleans Hornets (i think that is who it was) only had a -1 line, and were up like 30 points at half, only to score some ridiculous number like 16 points in the 2nd half to lose. Now that was sick!

              No, but I went to my knees and thanked God after deciding to pass on this game Sunday morning after planning to play Texans.

                      seriously....thats part of the game. shit like that happens pretty much every weekend. what do you expect of the texans?

                      i mean, if you havnt seen them do it before then that sux cuz you should know better - thats pretty routine for them.


                      but i made a halftime bet because i wanted to get out of my other bet and ended up losing both - but thats the game we play.

                          the game went off at +4-1/2
                          wouldnt most houston bettors would have won?
                          i was kicking myself for not betting houston

                          i'm a nut and wouldve bought 4-1/2 up to 7

                            I had the Colts -2.5. I am the happiest guy on this site because I had $1250 to win $1000 on them!

                                I had a normal sized bet on texans +3 +110 and also took them in BTP contest. Prick might go 4-0 himself, but Texans game was what separated me from a 4-0 week.

                                You don't see meltdowns like that every week, but it's no big deal to me. I would of course have prefered a win, but shit happens sometimes. One loss won't affect my bankroll much.
