          Thank you. I've always thought green went well with the red hair myself. Kinda Christmasy and all.

                You haven't mentioned how the muscle in your leg is feeling... Does the muscle feel better or haven't the shin splints healed yet...?

                No my leg is still tweaked. Can't put too much pressure on it, walking is no sweat but not to play ball. I think I should retire.

                              There is no way i would cheat for anyone in any contest. i create these things to give away my money....and im far from rich. I do the best i can, and i don't claim to be perfect. 5 star, i consider you a friend and i was not pulling against you, but this is how things turned out and, imo, i have been fair. imgv and i are not friends, the guy has crapped on me for no reason many times, but i cant allow friendship to cloud any judgments in these contests. imgv and i seem to be cool now and perhaps that will last, but who knows...its really of no significants. i do my best to do anything i can for people here and make myself available on sbr, through pms, through the phone, through text, through email, and through myspace. to be honest, despite this bump in the road, the first round went more smoothly than i expect for such a large project in its first go around. i do apologize for the fact that you feel screwed over, but the intent to ruin anyways chances, anyones day, or anyones fun was the thing from my mind.

                                      I like the bus, but i couldn't stand that every single moment leading up to the game revolved around him. I don't think i watched tv for about 4 days leading up to the thing and i elected to skip the game altogether. Seems as if i made a good decision from how ive heard the game described.

                                        How about the Cowboys vs Seahawks wild card game in 06 where that new ball was put in play just for the field goal,that was really shady.

                                          knicks/hornets before the hornets were good i believe it was in 2006 @ hornets. knicks were up 8 points with less than a min left and they were a 8 1/2 point underdog. i was on the hornets. hornets got every call possible and miraculously tied it up to get into ot. they covered the 8 1/2 by a half a point winning 9. looked rigged

                                            I watched a Northwestern football game in which the running back fumbled near the goal line. He later admitted to fixing the outcome. I had $ on Northwestern that day.
                                            I bet on a racehorse who was stiffed because the jockey had been paid off. There was a Pick six carryover and the plan was to pull down the pot at Caliente. I viewed that race in person and thought to myself that race was fixed.
                                            In the history of sports betting ther are numerous cases of fixes. The most infamous being the 1919 "black sox" who threw the world series. Over the years I've heard stories about the 1988 World Series where the Dodgers Beat the A's in five games. I wonder if that should be included on that list?
