christmas way overrated. women's holiday. it's all some of them live for. they think it solidifies the family but most men can't wait for dec. 26. buying the same crappy presents for people year after year gets tiring and boring. this holiday should be once every 4 years. this year it interferes with gambling although they are playing games on that glorious day which years ago they wouldn't even have considered doing. celebrating the birth of some fairy tale character and going into to debt to do it doesn't seem logical. i guess this is what non-gamblers do to highlight their otherwise boring and tranquil existence. my christmas haters club always goes to the casino where there is no sign of that holiday even existing. no decorations no anything related to it. true paradise.

You don't have kids do you? Putting aside the religious argument, Christmas with kids is really fun. The excitement they get and talking about Santa Claus and elves and all that is really fun. I've never gone into debt at Christmas and don't understand those that do. Even a little money management all year long keeps that from happening. Either way - hope you meet a girl who feels the same way you do about Christmas because would suck for her if she doesn't.

yes, it's a blast for the kids. but it should only be for kids like halloween used to be. there are people who really do go into debt that they will never be able to pay off in order to buy presents for every tom, dick, and harry that they know just to save face. i will soften my anti-stance to the level that it should be celebrated every two years instead of four. what percentage of men just go along with it to appease the spouse. if you have kids by all means go all in on it but otherwise it just comes to a thud on xmas morning. ever notice how the next day no one even mentions it other than the "did you have a good christmas" question everyone asks you. how are you supposed to respond to that question. well i spent 3000.00 and my family is busy returning or exchanging 60% of my gifts is an answer you won't hear but it happens. usually people respond with the "oh it was great can't wait till next year. hopefully it won't fall on a weekend " the nfl has a slate of games on 12/24 do you forego those and do whatever people do on christmas eve. basically nothing or do you just continue to flail away with your bets like normal. i get a kick out of the wives who criticize their spouses for gambling on xmas eve and day, like it's sacreligous or something if you do. this outdated holiday should alway be celebrated on a tuesday as to keep interference with the games and horse races to a minimum. that's my issue, but the nfl has gradually over the years infused their games into it when it happens on a weekend. for doing so they deserve accolades.

Just a idea seeweed. You are a sbr pro. So focus all your attention on Beat the Prick and win betpoints. Use the betpoints to game on. Id think betpoints way freekin better then mental bets. Dont resist seeweed just wager. Even a 10-20 betpoint wager better then mental ones. Beat the Prick a couple weeks. And build ur betpoints up. Hell man in canada sbr lets you buy sportsbook cash. Do it man. Beat the Prick. Win betpoints. wager betpoints amd buy sportsbook cash. Thats the good life.

Stop betting 500 to win 100, that's what you should do. Make a real fukin bet with wagering $100. What do you think is going to eventually happen when you risk your whole bankroll on some dumbass prop bet? Has it worked out yet?
