Quote: djatcI've been talking with the Wizard and he is putting together a high limit roulette team by charting roulette wheels at all casinos who can fade his bets; El Cortez, Railroad Pass, Circus Circus, Hooters (not for roulette just for the wings), Longhorn, and some others. He and Bob Dancer will be tackling high limit non-progressive slots by shoving old ladies when they hit a bonus round.
Thanks for the laugh! I'm still chuckling (and digging in my heels, as the resident old lady).

Mike is also asking me to team up with Rob Singer for slot AP to the nth degree
Quote: BuzzardNah, but I think this site is history. Started wondering when he did not post his pix for NFL conest.
That wasn't the reason I didn't put my picks in. Let's just say I was very busy and forgot to. I did ask Mission to randomize my picks on Sunday morning, a few hours before kickoff, but either he opposed the idea or didn't get the request in time.
In fact, I humbly request to be let back in and suggest I do double the picks next week.
Quote: GWAEI hope the site stays up long enough for us all to say good bye and figure out where we should all converge.
This site won't go anywhere. I would also like to add that absolutely nothing will change regarding DT.

Your timing could not be better re: interest rates. Best wishes in your first house!
If you do decide to sell this site or a share of it, I will put in a legitimate offer you and everybody stays on.

How is that clear? Clear as mud maybe...
What if he got a sponsor? What if he got a "9-5" job and is being compensated well? Selling would be an option, but I'd say either of the other 2 are more likely.

Am I the only one that thinks this may be part of EvenBobs roulette strategy? I sure see a lot of numbers and sectors mentioned.

Because nothing but the sale of the site would explain the removal of donation links.
Quote: sodawaterBecause nothing but the sale of the site would explain the removal of donation links.
There are certainly other explanations.
For example, he may be financially secure (or more secure) now, and not wish to solicit for donations any more.
I still think he got a job. I was not kidding with my SLS prediction. Maybe Tomspur put in a good word for him...
Whatever, the site's still up and running, the earth is still turning, and the sun will rise in the east tomorrow.
interesting interview

I'll put a boot in your ass, dude. You asshole, don't ever show weakness like that in my presence. Put your foul mood on somebody else. If you ever attempt to put your foul mood on me again I will kick your ass on Main Street at High Noon.
I absuloty don't remember making this statement. I was drunk, you know. But what I love about it is the absolute honesty in the statement. Mike, I'm the last person you would want to run into at high noon.

Another old tough guy. Whatever, dude. I had a

No Goal. Wide Right. The Music City Miracle. Don't you get it? God does not like you.
You went to 4 straight Super Bowls. You lost every single one. It happened in the 90's? Pfft. It happens every day, here. It's happening right now.
Terry Pegula has more cents than sense. The Billionaire Savior buys the Sabres without thoughts to profit. He's only here to Win The Cup (TM). The Sabres go on to post a record of 21-51, the worst record I can recall in the modern NHL.
This very same man has now bought the Bills. The only reaction? Jubilation. It's like Deuteronomy 14:26 here in the Queen City.
Why?
You are booze, bad weather, and a collection of a thousand ways to blow it. You are no good, hopeless, and without redemption. Your greatest accomplishment is the level of mediocrity you've achieved. Congratz.
And Ray Rice? Y'all think he should be hung? Well, Jim Kelly beat his wife, too. Hang Rice but hero-worship Kelly. Par for the course, Buffalo.
Can you Bill-ieve it?

Yeah Bob, sorta like when a guy asks you to go outside. Yeah, so his buddies can help him. Screw that. Pop him in the mouth right there. No use arguing with a DRUNK. They don't even remember it in the morning. Like Mickey ( No disrespect, just honesty )

There were a few times it took me part of a day to find my vehicle.
Fwiw, if ANYBODY wants to take you outside of a bar to settle something, their intention is to cause you considirable harm.
I have one friend who got 186 stitches going outside, just like you said, the perps friends were waiting.

Obviously you haven't spent much time around true tough guys.
One guy I know, he's not aggressive, tries to mind his own business, but when it is time to go he goes all out.
I've heard from a pretty reliable source that he's killed a few people, mostly when he was riding the rails.
So yeah, there's poseurs and then there's tough guys.
The fun part is, you never know which is which til the dust settles.

The Sabres will be WORSE this year. On purpose. They want to get either McDavid or Eichel in the draft. But I will bet you any amount you want that the Sabres will have a better record than the Leafs in 2015-2016. They have stockpiled more top draft picks than any team in the history of the NHL.
As far as Mr. Pegula buying the Bills, it can only be good for the fans. The previous owner would NEVER spend top dollar for coaches. In a salary cap league, when all teams are limited to what they can spend on players, but are NOT limited in what they can spend on coaches, paying for the best coaches can make a difference.
Quote: BuzzardYeah Buffalo fans, leave your team. Support a winner Toronto Maple Leaves..... Yes this is the correct spelling.
The leaf is the sigul of Canada, and has therefore become a proper noun. Much like "old glory" is praise or honor received in the past, whereas "Old Glory" is the banner we fly as a country. As it is a proper noun, it is pluralized by the simple addition of an "s".
If you met the family of former Charger quarterback Ryan Leaf, did you meet the Leafs'? The Leaf's? The Leaves?
But thanks Buzz for the perfect example. It is a taunt I hear multiple times every freaking day from Octember to Muly. And in their attempt to play me a fool, their own ignorance betrays them and serves only to reveal their own. This... it's just so perfectly Buffalo.
When the leaves fall, I cheer for the Leafs. Just as the old glories of your service make you proud to see the Old Glorys flying on Veterans Day.

Oh, if I were a rich man...
I do consider you exempt from Buffalitis, as if that means anything to you. You don't fit the mold of the person of whom I speak. But your one comment is spot on. In short, "Buffalo will be awesome in (insert any time that is not the present)". Oh how my feed blew up when "Super Mario" came to town. Forget playoffs, the Bills were gonna put up Patriot numbers on O and Steeler numbers on D. '72 Dolphins who? Oh, it was all over. And I made my one comment, as I always do, to prophesize the coming season - "Sorry, Mario. Your playoffs are in another castle". Oh, how I was flamed! The audacity that I could not see what was coming over the horizon, as was foretold in the book of Wilson! It was fact, it was guaranteed, it was known! And sure enough, Super Mario trumped the legendary Bruce Smith's sack record. And all that fuss and all that bother propelled the mighty Bills... to a 6 - 10 record.
Every year it's another hook to hang your hope on. We call this year's hook "Watkins". And Brother Watkins will be the Chosen, will lead us to the mountaintop. Or was that Spikes? Or Owens? Or the Amish Rifle? Bah, no matter... He will be the One to raise us from our pit of sorrow, and light shall once again shine upon One Bills Drive as we circle the wagons and forge ahead, as only one city could do. As Buffalo can do. Say hallelujah and praise the Man-Jesus, ahhh-men.
Ge Em Ay Ef Be. It's over. The 90's Bills are gone. What is left is what you are. You are now just little Billy Simpkins from down the way. You're only there so there's enough people for the rest of the boys to have their game.
But hey, maybe you are gonna have that freak explosion like the Lions a few years back. Maybe, if we just...
You may not like Rule Number One but if you are ever in a situation always remember it, for you will indeed either live or die by Rule Number One.Quote: MrVI've heard from a pretty reliable source that he's killed a few people, mostly when he was riding the rails.
Rule Number One is Never Leave Alive Somebody Who Wants You Dead. If you are riding the rails there is danger and adventure and camaraderie, but there are mentally unstable types and paths that cross will surely cross again. With some rail riders and ALL FTRA, you only get one chance kill them and heaven help you if you don't do it right and do it the first time. So a person who kills someone while riding the rails is not necessarily anything other than someone who did what he knew he had to do.
I used to have a high opinion of Libertarians but a rather low opinion of Anarchists, but riding the rails Anarchists tend to abide by the rules and not endanger anyone. And if you are ever on a less than seaworthy boat on a stormy night when a sail needs changing, its the Anarchists who will roll out of their bunks instantly and be on deck, clothed, harnessed and acting as a team to do instantly what has to be done. Libertarians will either sleep or all try to be leaders.
