Not showering until I get a win

[mathdotcom]

My picks stink

[Chi_archie]

good idea...

but find a local bookie..and make your picks with him in person....and hang ouit with him for long periods of time... after awhile and maybe he'll forgive your debts if you clean up

[Tsoprano]

Ill send u some winners for lates game Math.

[mathdotcom]

Will Bears cover?

[Chi_archie]

I don't think so...and I live in the Chi and have to deal with all the bear propaganda.... might just be wishful thinking.

[Tsoprano]

Will Bears cover?

Eagles & Over

[mathdotcom]

Okay tsoprano

If I lose, will make up for it by not buying soap, shampoo, toothpaste, etc.

[Chi_archie]

all week i've been looking at the over...

but just this afternoon I had 2nd thoughts... after realizing that other then Dallas they have not given up a TD this year..and that includes against a pretty potent Pittsburgh Stiller offense. and on the other side, the Bears D is pretty stout and the eagles might be slowed by some injuries..so I could see a 24-9 or 27-10 easy win for the eagles...w/o the over hitting.

[mathdotcom]

Where approx do you live in Chi, archie?

I lived in Garfield for over a year

[jjgold]

Mathy your like a young me, I like that your consumed with gambling at such a young age and will do anything to try and break a losing streak.

[mathdotcom]

jj

did you score with the ladies when you were younger?

i am not scoring

[jjgold]

Not really, a few times but only because I had money. They did not like me.

[Chi_archie]

invi

[Tsoprano]

Okay tsoprano

If I lose, will make up for it by not buying soap, shampoo, toothpaste, etc.

You played them, Math?

[mathdotcom]

Rented a basement from some G's 4-5 blocks east of Garfield train station

[BeatTheJerk]

your picks and your ass will stink if you can't come up with a winner . GL

[mathdotcom]

tsoprano

bet it all on parlay of the 2

[Chi_archie]

well you musta got like a 400-500 dollar a month deal.... to live there...

I mean I only live here cuz, I do community development and its my job to live bad in bad areas.. things are getting better around here now though... only 1 murder every 2 weeks now... n every week

[mathdotcom]

it was cheap but had to sleep with one eye open believe me

can't understand how UofChicago, one of the best in the world, is 15mins away from such a brutal ghetto

[Chi_archie]

yes, one eye open sleeping... i'm very familiar with that.. but I actually like the excitment and craziness of life in the hood. Once had a dude break into my house and hide his piece when the police were after it...

then he came back for it later..... great stories!!!

[mathdotcom]

Not worth the hassle, but learned some street smarts.

I can shake hands like 100 different ways now, too

[mathdotcom]

Eagles lose. Day 2 of no showering

Will even stop buying toilet paper to cut costs

[fiveteamer]

mathy just get napkins from mcdonalds.

[mathdotcom]

good idea

will stock up on ketchup while im at it, too

[fiveteamer]

mathy, eat lots of kidney beans, canned tuna, oatmeal.

all ways to save money.

you can get calcium at starbucks, just drink some of the milk/cream. Take sugar for oatmeal.

[mathdotcom]

now you are getting ridiculous. i am not a bum. what about bins behind restaurants though?

[fiveteamer]

mathy its all about saving money so that you can gamble more.

I don't eat out of dumpsters but my monthly grocery bill is like $17.87 a month.

The one thing that does suck is that for some reason lemons/limes are real expensive these days. I have to eat them in order to fight off scurvy but it is all worth it as I have extra money for gambling.
