Some how, it detects the ethenol that comes outta your pores.. My brother had to get one of these placed on him last week.. He can't even have Nyquil or anything with any alcohol at all or it will detect it and the police will come take him directly to jail.. It doesn't even seem constitutional to me.. That a judge can tell you that you are not even allowed to drink in your own home.. So, now that he has this thing on for the next 90 days, i have to watch games and drink alone.. I mean, i can hang out with him and not drink, but I'm not gonna go 90 days sober.. And i don't wanna drink right in front of him.. Before last week, i didn't even know these SCRAM things even existed.. Just wondering if anyone else has ever heard of this thing?. Sorry to waste anyones time reading all of this, but i've had a few too many tonight and The General said to talk about whatevers on your mind.. I just wanted to vent a little and see if anyone else has ever heard of such a thing..
Thanks for sharing that.

I understand a breathalyzer on a car if convicted of a DUI. I have had a DUI but never had to have one of those. Anyway, it is illegal to drink & drive. When you do it you know you are breaking the law & the legal consequences of your actions as it is very dangerous. I fully understand if you break this law a judge ordering you to have this device placed on your car because you have shown you have drank & operated a vehicle & this is punishment for that crime for a specific amount of time. Now tell me what the *uck you have to do to have a judge say you can't even have a drink in your own home!!!!! I mean, it has to be pretty friggin' unreal in my opinion!

All I'm saying is I cant see this as a punishment for anything that doesn't deserve being in jail for & this not an option. This is saying "I got so *ucked up on alcohol IN MY HOUSE that I did something that the government sees fit I don't do this completely legal activity under any circumstance!" What could that be?

Just finished watching season 1 of Mad Men. That is the Drama series on AMC. I'd say it is much better than anything that I've seen on tv for a while. Dexter used to be my favorite drama, but it seems more like a fantasy. Mad Men is about Ad excutives on Madision Ave during 1960s. The show also won the golden globe just now. I think if the show gets nominated for Oscar, it'll be a lock to win that too.
The main character on the show is Donald Draper. He seems like the guy everyone wants to be. For me, I like the character Sterling much better because he earned the money the old fashion way...by inheritance. Draper has to lie cheat and work hard his whole life to get to where he is.
You guys should download it and watch it sometimes. You'll learn something about salesmen.

He got caught for a DUI last week.. This SCRAM thing was a requirment of his bail.. He had to get it when he posted bond.. I can understand a breathalyzer in your car, but this means he can't have anything at all for 90 days.. This is before even being found guilty.. Just charged.. 1st offence.. Maybe i could understand if he was a repeat offender, or was at least found guilty.. I just don't understand how its even legal.. He is a much better capper than i am, and bets much larger bets than i do, so i've always enjoyed watching games with him.. But with him now not being able to have a beer or two, its tough to watch games everyday with him.. I wanna kick back and have a cold one, but i'd be a dikk to do that right in front of him..

******s are good. Today we celebrate MLK day with ******s and non-******s alike. We celebrate the equality that ******s have attained through the teachings of Dr. King and the many men of the Civil Rights movement. ******s have persevered centuries of slavery and torture. They are strong unlike faggots. Faggots are weak bitches compared to ******s. If a faggot and a ****** got into a fight, the ****** would win easily. The end.
Ship it, ******. Easiest 20 points ever.

YES NO MAYBE OK I DID FOR TO THIS THAT IF AND NO THAT YAYA YAYO. BUT MANY THIS AND OVER THE EXIT YANKEES BUT ALWAYS LAKERS IF 20 POINTS OVER THE UNDER AFTER THE BEGGINING TAKES AWAY DONKEY SAUCE.
TO THE END FOR I GOT THE KOOK IN A HEAD LOCK BUT BANDAGE EFFERVESCENT OVER THE NOT GNARLY BIRD WAVE BY THE REED CHUCKS.
JIFFY TASTES GREAT WITH SALSA ON CELERY MAYBE IF NOT GOD AFTER AGGIES BUT QUESTIONS WORTH JASON WERTH HOMER IN THE 10TH BEHIND SHOOTER. MY HANDS UP MY HANDS UP THEY WANT ME WITH MY HANDS UP SHOOTER SHOOTER.
NAT KING COLE ATE THE BUTTER BUT COULDN'T READ THE DIARY OF BABE RUTH SO HE THREW THE BABY RUTH AT DR. RUTH AND RAN INTO THE SHED TO GET A PILLOW, EXCEPT THE SMILEY FACE WAS TAKING TOO MANY YETTIS WITH HIM TO THE AVENUE BY THE BRIDGE.
My favorite table at the book is upstairs in the middle with my friend and nachos. I like to watch the 16 screens show different games and races. It is fun to watch the games, but the screens are too far away. I eat nachos and watch baseball, college basketball and one time roma which is a soccer team. They won, so i won $40. That was great. I saw that the team looked happy before the game so i bet on them and they won. It was that easy. I order beer sometimes. I like to order diet pepsi. It is one dollar. The security trips out on my bag, but that is okay, because i have to have my bag or i feel nude. I always win money and at the end of the night, i have wads of twentys and hundos in my wallets.
I'm making 5 AM Est. the deadline for giving away the 20 points so you have some time 56 mins to make me smile or interested, Men.

It's hard to find anything interesting to even think about at 4:30 in the morning! I'm sitting here about to go to sleep. 300 channels and not a damn thing on this time of morning. Watching a B budget war movie. One thing that pisses me off more than anything in a military movie is when they don't get insignia & decorations right.
As many people as they have on a movie set to get things right how can this be overlooked. I know most, or I'd say alot of people, especially who have never been in the military, don't know the difference but I feel it's a disgrace to our veterans to not get this right. I have never served but my father did for many years & as a kid one of the first things I learned was military decorations.
When I watch any kind of military movie that's the first thing I look for, the accuracy of their ribbons on their uniform. The accuracy of the uniform for the era. If it's not right it drives me crazy. To see a silver star below an Army commendation medal, a Navy Cross on an Army soldier. Get it right, it's not hard.
A movie I really liked was with John Travolta & Samuel L. Jackson, can't even remember the name of it right now. Anyway, Samuel L. played a bad-ass sargeant, they never specified E-5, E-6 or what grade of sargeant, but in the first scene of the movie with him in it chewing ass he has E-4 rank on his collar! Not cool! There's always an asterick now beside that movie for me because of that.
Another good one is when they have a movie with foreign military, like NVA's, Russians, French whatever, & they throw some U.S. WWII victory medal or POW ribbon pn them like no ones gonna know. I KNOW DAMNIT! And I'm gonna call them out on it!
Anyway, there's my pet peeve of the day. I know most of you are thinkin' "WTF is he talkin' about?"

On the same subject, the best is when they put a captain barely old enough to be in Vietnam with a Pacifiv theater campaign ribbon from 20 years earlier in WWII! The movie 'We Were Soldiers' did a great job, & most do, but it's the ones that don't I cant stand. maybe I could get a job in Hollywood.

That being said, it is time to elevate our games and to reach for somthing a bit higher than normal, a bit higher than we've achieved posting here before. I think that inside of us all there is a great poster, that is dying to come out. that poster might be the one to start a great winning streak the forum follows. or the next revolution to bring others' to a higher level of consciousness in regards to sports insights. When it is all said and done I lean on the wise words of the greatest coach ever. Robert Montgomery Knight. "The will to succeed is important, but what's more important is the will to prepare." and "When my time on earth is gone, and my activities here are passed, I want they bury me upside down, and my critics can kiss my ass"
god bless you all here at the forum

Not sure if this is still going on but I will give it a shot...
The NFL playoffs are on my mind. What are the Jets doing differently to mix up the offensive plan of high powered offensive teams like the Chargers. Well it seems they are using a 3-4 defense and dropping the forth linebacker into pass coverage. Why did this work so successfully against the Chargers? Because they went in knowing the Chargers lacked a serious running game. Once the game started it was obvious the Chargers could not run the ball period... At that point hopefully several of you had the same thought as me if you were on the Chargers...which was.. $hit there is no way the Chargers can win if they have no running game at all!
Well apparently the Jets already knew this...Jets 17 Chargers 14...good job by the Jets.

The Philadelphia Flyers need to be hammered by all SBR posters (who have money) tonight.
Do not fall for the money line - it is -210 now and it rightfully should be.
Give the 1.5 goals to the bad Columbus Blue Jackets. Why?
The Flyers have been playing better for one, excluding a 4-0 stinker at the hands of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Other than that they have been one of the hottest teams in the NHL, and have been scoreing a ton of goals in recent weeks.
What does this mean? It means that since they have been scoriing so many goals you more or less just get the increased odds from -210 to +140 with a 1 goal game being pretty unlikely here (OK, it's the NHL so it still is somewhat likely, but you get the gist of what I am saying).
Philly's powerplay is currently ranked #3 in the NHL in terms of conversion and is closer to the top 2 teams than the rest of the league. Columumbus' PK unit is ranked 15th in the NHL, very average.
Ray Emery returned from his injury to lose a tough one to an elite Washington squad, he has a habit of being lights out after laying a stinker. Take Philly, give the goals.

Young people are in a condition like permanent intoxication because youth is sweet and they are growing. For the things we have to learn before we can do them we learn by doing them. Dignity consists not in possessing honors but in the consciousness that we deserve them. It is not always the same thing to be a good man and a good citizen. All paid jobs absorb and degrade the mind. All men by nature desire knowledge. Liars when they speak the truth are not believed. It is possible to fail in many ways while to succeed is possible only in one way. To enjoy the things we ought and to hate the things we ought has the greatest bearing on excellence of character. Nature does nothing uselessly.

Pete I will never forget the day when I fukkin pranked you on AOL saying I was Daulton of MVP sportsbook and you bought it. I went on to say stuff about Shrink and thinking of advertising at EOG or RX at the time. Pete you were so excited that you were talking to Daulton and figured you had a sure sale. I think you found out months later and did not talk with me for a while and said I was unprofessional. It was one of my top 10 pranks and best one dealing with a moderator. Pete I apologize for that today and I can assure you I am not Daulton of MVP Sportsbook.

If you are standing on the south pole....are you standing upside down? You are on the bottom of a sphere, so I would say that you are standing upside down.
Do all animals sleep? And is it possible to sleep with your eyes open. I do not believe that fish sleep, although I may be wrong...
If Mary was Jesus's mother...I dont care what the bible says, she must have had sex with someone to get pregnant. There must be sperm and egg for conception to occur, period and end of discussion.
Was the earth always here? And if it wasn't always here, what was here? anything....?
Does it talk about dinosaurs in the bible? I don't believe that it does.
Why is sex so much fun? Its just fun to have sex with a female...but why? dammit it is fun though....

Economic freedom is based on a simple rule: everyone has the right to his or her life and property. In the United States, many citizens seek to use the government to enrich themselves at their neighbors' expense. This is immoral. We should stop using the government to do things that would be considered morally outrageous if done by a private individual. Why would we expect a system based on legal theft, as ours is, to be a net benefit to the poor or middle class? Every one of the special benefits that have been enacted by both Republicans and Democrats makes companies less efficient and competitive, and the economy more sluggish. This is exactly what happened with Bush's bailouts and Obama's social spending. After decades of deficit spending and unconstitutional entitlement programs, each American's individual share of the federal government's liabilities is now $184,000... and rising. The current budget deficit is more than at any other time in history. This happened under a so-called conservative president/congress. We have to find our way again.

Email from about a year ago between me and a buddy of mine all basically about a porno called "Young Treats":
Me: It is funny that I had 170 messages in my inbox folder. I deleted every one that wasn't titled, 'I Want It More Than Ever.' I am really dirty. I just want to smoke, but my throat hurts and I can not.
Him: I like that dark haired girl from Young Treats who wears brown thigh-highs on the table. You know the one. She doesn't seem to like getting hammered from that filthy dude with hairy balls, but I'd like to hammer her. Yeh, I'd like to hammer her all night long.
Me: I watched Young Treats, and I watched it with a remote that had a dead battery. I had to watch two scenes all the way through, and one of them did not get it from the back side. I was obviously let down. I'm so dirty. I feel horrible about myself. I need to go to sleep, but it is only noon.
Him: Young Treats is fast, which can be very good when time is short. The hairy-balled dude likes it fast, too, but the dark haired girl he is pounding doesn't like him too much. He tries to do the dirty dude, but he's not the dirty dude. Maybe I should step in and jack hammer that shit.
Me: I hope no one ever looks at my hard drive like they always do on those criminal mystery shows. I would hate to have to explain all these emails about porno or jerking off.

I love what lakerboy said. I have been through alot in my life have tried every drug I have ever heard of and have been with women of all sorts more bad ones than good ones but definitely been with some good ones. Now god blessed me with the greatest woman i have ever met. I am 34 years old now and haven't touched the other love of my life blow in 4 years. Age makes everyone mellow at least it has made me mellow. I had alot of good friend die and living a relaxed life is actually absolutely the way to go. I do have this 1 vice left called gambling. I love the thrill of it and I have actually made money the last 2 years at it. When I had 14 grams of powder on me and had 1000 on the Jets in the AFC championship game vs the Broncos many years ago I was too ****ed up to even watch the game and lost 1100 dollars without even getting the rush of watching the game. Then i looked in my pocket at those 14 grams and realized that was the only money I had to pay my bookie and for the next 3 days straight finished off that 14 grams and had to find the 1000 dollars somewhere else. (Actually I could have only gotten 5 0r 6 hundred for those 14 grams but that is beside the point). That was my life along time ago and needless to say thing are much simpler being home with my lovely wife and my 8 year old son. Someone better give me some points for that post!!!!!!
