I am usually real calm no matter what and bet just for fun but last year It was college basketball and I put a pretty big bet for my standards on West Virginia and I dont even remember who they were playing but it looked like an easy win pretty much all of the 2nd half and into the final minutes until with about 2 min left the other team went on like a 10-0 run or something and I lost my bet by 1 point. I just chucked my nextel at the wall and put a whole in it. Broke my phone and had to fix the whole in my wall..... Anyone else have any similar stories?

Its hard for me with kids usually around but I can say when i am by myself alot of shit flies.
Worst loss of this year was I had the under in the bears/Lions teased when they score like 50 points in the 4th quarter.
Took out a piece of my counter topComment -
I broke shit when your Illinois beat Arizona in that famous college BB game in 05.Comment -
Good thread...
F*CK YEAH and I almost broke something before the half... I had Tx. +4 second quarter and when he fumbled that ball I picked up the remote to throw it.. I saw he got tackled and held back... Thank god for FG's...

I broke my oldest son's baby walker when the Oilers lost to Joe Montana and the Chiefs in 1994. I was a big Oiler fan and 7 years in a row of making the playoffs and not the AFC Championship finally got to me. Mrs. KLC didn't talk to me for a week after that.

a few tvs by throwing them down on cement basement floor
the bigger you bet the more likely you are to break something.Comment -
Threw my directv remote on the ground and it bounced back up in to many pieces, as I was watching Rasheed wallace fluked 3 point shot from a mile goes in as time expires because the nuggets couldn't inbound the ball with .05 seconds left and the game went high.Comment -
I use the big tvs only
The tube ones, they are betterComment -
my sanity and my confidence
that is worse than throw your computer or tv out of the windowComment -
A lot of times I feel like throwing the remote at the TV screen an perpetuating serious damage to it. Never have, tho. Instead, I usually break pencils, especially if it's the one I am using for my bets.
If I am on a bad run, my pencil usually goes anyway.........just goes out. Just a stupid superstition.
I'll keep a winning pencil around forever. I still have one from circa '88-'89 that I only bring out for special occasions. Just like fine silverware.Comment -
I throw shoes at the TV all the time... I just whipped a football at the TV earlier this week when Steve Nash missed two FT's to kill my quarter over.... I throw a lot of sh*t at my TV but since I have a Projector ..my TV is a wall which is nice because I pound on it all the time out of frustration... It feels good too!!!

I broke my cat
Sorry, buddyComment -
I've only thrown one thing during my 8 years of sports gambling.
It was the fall of 2000 and Washington was hosting Tennessee on MNF. I took the under in the 1H and it was going to cash then a pick at the end of the half by Tennessee that was returned by either Blane Bishop or Samri Rolle (I forget now) for an improbable 70-80 yd return as time expired. I mean it wasn't like a return where it was clear cut to the endzone...he had to weave through virtually all 11 Washington players, 10 of whom missed tackling him.
Anyone else remember this play.....Comment -
I threw my home phone against the wall once and broke it...had to go out and buy a new one later in the day!Comment -
Think there's a market for life size zebra cutouts?
I'm not thinking darts. I'm thinking spear.Comment -
Yeah he missed two late and that was all I needed... I want to say he missed one earlier that quarter too but I'm not sure... X-Mas or not ..this man was cursing Steve Nash that day....

Last year Cinn. played Pitts. in the opener of the season and I had Cinn. for either the quarter or half I don't recall which... I thought it was in the bag with 7 sec. to go and the final play... They were in Pitts. territory and on the last play he threw a pick which the Pitts. guy took gback 85 yards for a TD but what was worse was watching Cinn. OLinemen just let this guy coast threw the whole BearCat team to give me the score... I threw everything that was in grabbing range at the wall and was jumping up and down cursing at Cinn. I had my blinds open and the guys acrossed the way were partying on the patio and I looked over and noticed everyone watching me so I chilled out... Man was I pissed...
Then there is the Carolina futures... I had them at 20-1 to win it risking 2K... When Kassey kicked that kickoff out of bounds giving NE good field position I knew I was toast and they were going to get in Adam V's range... When he hit it I just sat there and stared at nothing for a couple of hours... I didn't threw anything and when my girlfriend at the time called I just told her to give me a few days...
Having your TV on a wall does have certain advantages for gamblers...
