What a weekend it was

Had a busy weekend. Had Knee surgery on wensday to remove the torn Cartilidge from my left
Knee. Surgery went Ok But My doctor found that I Tore my ACL also (Fuckme).

Then I ran a Poker tourney with 29 players on saturday which went well.
I busted out my Full tilt Hockey Jersey.for the event.
29 players 3k in chips with 30 min levels till level 8. After that we went to 20 min levels.
I ended up going out 7th when I got it allin with JJ against a shorter 99 and AQ who had me covered. Flop came 9 high and a Q on the river and I was out. I would have been happy with the side pot since it was bigger than the main.

so what do we do then we head down to foxwoods at 8:30 sat night since playing since 1pm wasnt enough.

My Boy BC bought dinner at the Hard Rock which was ok. but free is free right????
we bought into the same $120 sng and i busted out 7th again when KQ called my preflop raise.
and flopped 2 pair.

so decided to play one more and ended up at a table with with 4 ladys who were all friends.
My General game is TIGHT Aggressive since people like to limp and chase down there.

we get 4 way with 2,3,4,8 seats left. and the 2 and 8 seats are sisters.
the woman in the 9 seat didnt leave her seat and was telling the woman in the 8 how to play.
so what do i do I speak up and tell her nicely to shut her mouth. since she isnt even in the game she shouldn't even be sitting at the table anymore nevermind coaching the 8 seat.

long story short I ended up winning the sng for $500 after sucking out with J4 to take a commanding lead. But even then It wasn't easy my Hu opponent was in the 3 seat and me in the 4. he doubled up when he was AI for less than the blind. and then procedded to push like 4 hands in a row when i had 82, 84, 74 and 72s, he was starting to get frustrated when i said I wish i could call with 72 and flipped it face up, here is where HU sngs help alot getting comfortable with the situation. Finally got it all in with AT and it held up for the win.

so I won $220 for the day which isn't too bad. too bad I didn't get home till 3am.

Sunday went by in a blur. No Patriots so means not so much intrest in watching the NFL games
other than My Fantasy Teams.

Tonight is the Big game with alot of money $10 riding on the outcome. Drizz just send the money to my stars account now. since the Pats will be victorious.

How about those SUPER BOWL CHAMPION STEELERS???????
can u believe they lost to the RAIDERS?
so much for a repeat they aren't going to make the playoffs.
making it easier for the Patriots to return to thier rightfull spot on top.

Patriots 24
Vikings 17


Peace

wow I suck at this game

Sometimes no matter what you do it turns out wrong and that was how it was last night for me.
one of those nights when after loosing 3 sng's and 1 tourney early I decided to just watch instead of playing. Such is life.

I am scheduled to have knee surgery tomorrow (thurs) and I should hopefully
feel much better than it does now, I can't straighten my knee out without
excruciating pain.

Maybe I am getting to Old to play Football like
My wife says. But since I am having surgery I get a few days off so what will
I do with all my free time????? Hmm I will give you 2 guesses.

Peace

Who's the best Team in the NFL?????

the first thing I would like to do is give a big congratulations to Brdweb for his
3rd place in the bodog 100k last night.

Now Who's the best Team in the NFL?????

the New England Patriots.!!! Yeah thats right and no I haven't lost my mind Brady is starting to get comfortable with his recievers and we have not 1 good Running Back But 2 with Dillion and Maroney who is going to be a star in this league.

The Patriots are 5-1 for the first time in 10 years and other than chicago and a suddenly tough
game with Minnesotta next monday the schedule is pretty favorable.

By the way Drizz want to make a bet?????

HOW about those steelers. Are they out of the playoffs yet????
how the mighty have fallen.
can the tigers win 4 straight.
tune in next time for the answers.

peace

the Games People Play.

First I would like to off my condolences to Metsfan.
for the loss of his beloved mets and more so since he bought World series tickets
and he LIVES IN LA.

Now that is a True Fan. Now he know how redsox fans have felt all these years.
Maybe Next year.

On to football and we have the return of the Patriots after a BYE WEEK, Thank God
since watching football on sunday isn't right without your team playing.

they are playing the Bills this sunday and if they will they will lockup the AFC least for the year since they are 4-0 in the division.
Take the Pats and the give the points there will be no fluky touchdown on the first play from scrimmage for the bills this week.

I do find it interesting the way the colt and pats front offices get along.
seems like this is kinda petty but whatever works for you.

Patriots pushing Polian's buttons

The Patriots won't be rolling out the welcome mat for Colts president Bill Polian on Nov. 5.

The New England Patriots have formally asked the NFL to ensure the safety of Patriots employees when the team hosts the Indianapolis Colts and their explosive president at Gillette Stadium on Sunday night, Nov. 5.
The move, an evident tweaking of the Colts, comes after Colts President Bill Polian apologized to a Jets employee earlier this month for shoving him before the Colts-Jets game at Giants Stadium on Oct. 1.
According to a league source, Polian, Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum and Ray Anderson, the NFL's senior vice president of football operations, discussed the incident on a conference call soon after it occurred and Polian was required to issue a written apology.

The league wanted to the incident to "go away," the source said.According to a FoxSports.com report earlier this month, Polian was upset because he felt loudspeakers were positioned too close to the field. In the course of speaking to a Jets employee in a tunnel leading to the field, Polian grabbed the employee by the lapels of his jacket and pushed him against a wall.

When contacted about the incident, Anderson said he had no comment and abruptly hung up.Colts vice president of public relations Craig Kelley said: "I'm not commenting. It's been resolved, if in fact there was a problem in the first place."Polian, who has been with the Colts for nine seasons and was a GM for the Panthers and Bills before that, did not respond to an e-mail request for comment.Jets vice president of public relations Ron Colangelo said last week that the league office was looking into the situation.

Meanwhile, the Colts' longtime AFC nemesis in New England took notice of the Polian issue.In the past few years, the Colts have lodged frequent complaints with the league about the Patriots. Last week, the Colts reportedly asked the league to talk to the Pats about the shoddy condition of the turf at Gillette Stadium.During the 2003 regular season, Indianapolis complained that Patriots linebacker Willie McGinest milked a late-game injury to allow a Patriots substitution. McGinest was later involved in a stirring, game-ending fourth-down stop of Edgerrin James. During the 2003 AFC Championship, Polian went ballistic while watching the Patriots strong-arm Indianapolis receivers. A "rules emphasis" was instituted in 2004 that was dubbed the "Ty Law Rule" after the Patriots corner who picked off Peyton Manning three times that day.In visits to New England, Polian has been demonstrative in the press box, swinging his fists, throwing off his suit coat and pounding the counter in front of him.Last year, when Patriots backup quarterback Doug Flutie scrambled around during the last play of a 40-21 Colts win at Foxborough, Polian said, "Break his leg."

Five reasons the Patriots get under the Colts' skin

1. Winning. The Patriots have won three Super Bowls. The Colts have won one. In 1970. When they were in Baltimore. Since 2001, regardless of circumstance, the Patriots have found a way to win. The Colts, on the other hand, find a way to lose. Quite often, the losses have come at the Colts expense.

2. Quarterbacks. Peyton Manning and Tom Brady are the two best quarterbacks in the NFL. And they've forged a pretty strong friendship. Yet as Manning continues to rewrite the league's passing records and fall flat in the playoffs, Brady plods efficiently along during the regular season and, save for last season, lights it up in the playoffs. Manning has a multitude of backers. So does Brady. But the conversation on who's better usually ends when the topic of championship rings is raised.

3. Reputations. The Colts play in a controlled dome environment and rely on a finesse passing game and a smallish quick defense. There's a segment of the football-watching public that -- rightly or wrongly -- believes the Colts are soft. The Patriots play outdoors in often sloppy and inclement weather. Their offense is balanced. They can pound it. They can pass it. Defensively, they're smart and nasty. The Patriots may be many things, but soft is not one of them.

4. Expectations. Few things are more agitating in life than expecting great things and getting less. Few things are more enjoyable than expecting little and getting much. The Colts tend to perform below expectations. The Patriots -- despite injuries and roster upheaval -- continue to exceed expectations.

5. Coaches. Colts coach Tony Dungy is widely viewed as one of the most decent men in sports. Frank, forthcoming, earnest and soft-spoken, it's impossible to find anyone who dislikes Dungy. Such is not the case with Bill Belichick. He can be evasive. Forthcoming would be one of the final adjectives anyone would use to describe him. Whether folks like him or loathe him doesn't seem to matter much to Belichick. Far more people root for Tony Dungy than Bill Belichick. With minimal satisfaction. Belichick's continued success must be an irritant in Indy.

poker has been up and down Mostly down lately. It is nice now that fulltilt is
starting to get some added players from the Party closing.

NFL MAKES FANTASY PASS
By GEOFF EARLE
NY POST

October 10, 2006 -- WASHINGTON - The National Football League used a big bucks lobbyist to ram through Internet gambling-curbing legislation in the final minutes of the legislative session, sources revealed.

But opponents of the bill charge that the NFL broke the rules when it fast-tracked legislation that never even got a vote in the Senate - a trick play that provided a big exemption for fantasy football.

The NFL runs its own fantasy football site, and gets royalties from others. Fantasy contest companies generate up to $200 million a year, according to an industry association.

The NFL hired lawyer Marty Gold of Covington & Burling and a former counsel to Majority Leader Sen. Bill Frist (R-Tenn.) to design its playbook.

Gold and his firm billed a stunning $700,000 to the NFL in 2005, according to disclosure reports, lobbying on issues from Internet gambling to steroids.

Last month, right before lawmakers left town to campaign, the league was struggling for a way to overcome opposition to clearing the gambling bill. The league decided to try to tack the gambling bill onto final defense legislation that couldn't be amended.

Gold says it wasn't his idea. NFL Chairman Roger Goodell and past chairman Paul Tagliabue wrote Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman John Warner (R-Va.) that the bill was an "achievement" he could be proud of, but that couldn't get through the Senate by regular means.

Warner, a senior Navy and Marine veteran, refused.

He wrote Frist - a likely presidential candidate and champion of the gambling bill in the Senate - voicing his "strong objection" to including it in a bipartisan bill for U.S. troops.

Frist relented - but then hatched a new plan to add it to a bill to secure the nation's ports. Rep. Jim Leach (R-Iowa), who holds sway in a key primary state, wrote the original House gambling bill, backed by social conservatives.

House Homeland Security Chairman Rep. Pete King (R-N.Y.) was more compliant, and allowed it onto his port bill without a vote by negotiators.

"I'm not going to stop a bill because of Internet gambling," explained King, who wrote the port bill. "That was their final offer for that day."

Lawyer Tony Cabot, who represents Las Vegas casinos, said he was assuming that "those Republicans got beat down pretty bad by Frist and Hastert. I think they thought they had no choice."

Just goes to show you who trhe politicians in this country really represent.
It sure isn't you and I ....or any of the people who elected them, Its the special intrests that have the money.

Alittle Grump are we????

FeliciaLee: "the kumbaya's who started it in the first place!'"

Entitlement? Yeah, Eat my Azz!
I am still unable to get past this entitlement belief that so many people possess. I have been an adult for almost 20 years, yet I still can't seem to understand it, or accept it at all.

Almost every person I've spoken to over the past few weeks insists that a certain well-known man "owes" them an explanation. He charges them nothing to participate on his website. He gives out free advice and help. He provides a meeting place and open discussion. He doesn't ask for anything in return other than civility.

Yet everyone I've spoken to insists that he "owes" them something. This is absurd, imo.

The readers coming here are reading my journal because they like the candid look inside of me, my life. I write, they read. I don't charge them to read. I hand out advice when I can, although I'm not always sure if it's worth anything ;)

Good thing I don't charge, eh?

But if even one of them said that I "owed" them an explanation on a big issue? Well, that would be the last post they would be allowed to make. I don't "owe" them jack. Nor does he.

You can insist and demand all you want, but to me, you look like an idiot. Have you gotten so used to the welfare that this country hands out like candy that you believe someone "owes" you anything at all??? I suppose so, because I've yet to find even one exception in this case.

Just because someone is providing you with a website, free of charge, doesn't mean suddenly you are his employer and can boss him around, demanding that he give you even more, more, more.

I'll say what he won't: eff off.

And blow me. And GTFO my site. And eat me. And "go demand your welfare somewhere else. Maybe from the kumbaya's who started it in the first place!"

Have a nice day!

Felicia :)"

Wow did some bitch wake up on the wrong side of the pillow or what?
I can't even figure out who she is talking about? I will guess
that she is talking about Mason Malmuth over at 2+2 which
while being a free site and All the Police the chat just like hitler
did. If you don't aggree with them they will ban you or delete your
Posts.

They are also making money off this Free site,
So they do have some Responsiblity to the Masses But lets say they don't
they could still offer an Opinion as to the current lesiglation will bring.

Just love a good rant Like Felicia had. Maybe she could ask her doctor for some new
Happy Pills since these don't seem to be working.
she also suggests that we should

"blow me. And GTFO my site. And eat me. And "go demand your welfare somewhere else. Maybe from the kumbaya's who started it in the first place!"

maybe we don't want to touch you nasty old cooch so let glen have it all.
Life is way to short to be miserable all the time.

Peace
