    Boys, I have stopped gambling.
    Very proud of myself. Won't start again until I win contest money on here or maybe if I win one of my fantasy basketball leagues or whatnot.

    JJ if you need advice on how to stop I am here for you pal. Been away from the game since the BCS National Champ game.

      King, I was thinking about you today, wondering where you had been at. I am happy you "saw the light" and decided to stop giving the bookies your money. Good luck on your endeavors. Spend some of that $$$$ on your hot girlfriend.

        you can be more successful applying yourself to other projects. find something you like that can make you money. if you don't have something in mind take a class or two.

        gambling has its ups and downs and when it is no longer fun or it's ruining your finances then it's time to move on

            Thanks guys, I am gonna try to hang around the boards and talk sports and play in the contests, but if I start wanting to post up some money then I am going to leave out right. Hopefully I won't have to do that though. Love sports.

              Doubt that JJ. Don't want to ruin my life and be a degen. Maybe one of these days I gamble some, but at this point in my life I won't be doing it. Can't afford it and do not like the ups and downs that it serves me.

                      this is the same as an alcoholic going to the bar and telling his buddies he's quit drinking. but i'll still come and hang out , just wont drink. It wont work,
                      I'm not knocking your decision at all. more power to you for being responsible.
                      but their are certain tools you have to posses to break any kind of addiction. Tools that you learn with AA/NA/GA etc...
                      One is to elimate trigger factors that cause relaspe. SBR could be a huge trigger factor just like a bar is to an alcoholic.

                      good luck

                          I realized a long time ago that I could never quit. What I have done is reduced the amount I play and I still get the enjoyment. You have to do whatever works for you.

                          I wish you the best of luck in quitting.

                                    Shouldn't treat The Terrible Towel like that. It will always come back to haunt you. Enjoy the games on Sunday.

                                      Titans losing hurt for sure, but I didn't have anything on it, thankfully. Heart breaker pal. Had all kind of people over for wings and my team chokes like some mofo's I have never seen before. We had that game won. Never seen anything like that, esp with Fisherball.

                                                  everyone has their good qualitys,and bring ideas to the table

                                                  the coach knows what he says just go look at the ''racetrack horse betting story'' video

                                                  that says alot to me

                                                      the coach knows what he says just go look at the ''racetrack horse betting story'' video

                                                      that says alot to me
                                                      Without a track record his ideas are as good as selling sand to Libya.
