Being Sick Sucks Monkey Balls

Ok so running yourself ragged while you have a bad head/chest cold is not a good idea.

But free tickets on friday night to see the celtics get smoked by the knicks.
work a double on saturday and then get up at 8 am sunday to go to the Patriots game
makes for a long weekend.

While it was nice to see a Celtics game in person, I wish they could have lost by less than 25.
they are a young team. lots of promise but short term they are going to lose way more than they will win.

I went to My first and probably last patriots game of the year, Why well I work retail and
I have to work sundays in december :( .

It was nice to see the Patriots win against a good Team for a change.
Did the Pat's play well? Not really But Chicago's defense is probably the best in the league.
It was too bad to see Junior Seau Break his Arm, that looked real nasty and incase you didnt see it here it is.











Although i was against him signing with the pats he was fitting in real well and this is another big loss for the patriots. Hopefully he will heal up and not have any lasting effects from this
injury.

hopefully the train that is running over my head will stop soon.

tough Road ahead

Wow just looking at the patriots Old Uniforms gives me the willie's Lots of bad memories

to go along with those uni's.

The 86 superbowl the 1-15 season, so on and so forth.

The Bears are an Interesting team,
are they as strong as everyone thinks or are they just playing in an inferior conference???
The bears are awsome on defense but they are banged up and missing a few key players(mike Brown, Ricky manning Jr).
they score 40% of their points on defense so not turning the ball over is extremely important against the bears.

I think the pats will win by 14, 34-24 but it will be closer than most think. the spread is
3.5 point favorite and you get 3 for being at home s the game is in essence a pickem????
the Patriots should have thier way with the Bears by controlling the clock.
If the patriots win they are back in the drivers seat for a bye with denver losing on Turkey day.
and they really need to win to keep the distance on Miami and the jets who is looking better each week.

Pats bye 14, 34-24

poker has been Blah lately. Had some donk at a 6.50 sng tell me he had notes on me
and that him calling my ALLin with J4o was a good play on his part. because his notes told him so. Note made in his file and I will be looking to play with him again.

just banging around not making much progress on the Bankroll lately.
but I still enjoy playing which is the good part. Just wish the Roll would go up at a noticable rate
I feel like I play well but sometimes that isn't enough.
Maybe someday I will learn the secret.

4pm sat my buddy just called with Tix to the Pats- chicago game.
get to see the Patriots win in person.

best of craigslist : Dudes, don't shower/shave with your kitten...

I have this cat whom I found as kitten, too young to have been weened properly and sick - without intervention he wouldn't have survived on his own much longer. I nursed him back to health, had to hand feed him for awhile, and I became very attatched to him. He's now really healthy, a beutiful orange tabby and we get along great, but our relationship hit a very rocky point one morning. We've patched things up, reasonably well, but memories of this particular morning will always haunt us - particularly me.


But now the point: I shave after I get out of the shower. I throw a towel around my waist, but other than that I shave naked. Like I said my kitten - let's call him Butters - is hanging out in the bathroom the whole time. At this point he's maybe 4 months old, still young, but full of energy. He's playing, doing his thing, and eventually he starts rolling and playing around my feet. 'How sweet,' I think. 'This is a great cat.'

Next thing I know i'm on the floor, curled in the foetus position with blood dripping down my chin from a razor cut and Butters is hiding out behind the porcelin throne, starring at me with huge, dialated eyes.

yeah, he went there.

Dangling objects + kitten = kill.

For those who still haven't caught on, while playing around my feet Butters must have looked up and seen the ole' twig and berries, and decide that it would be a great idea to give the danglies a swat. He had good aim - very good aim...

I don't understand masochists."

Happy ThanksGiving :WWdn tourney

Happy Thanksgiving!

Why is it that I like to play with bloggers???? I can find easier games to play,
THE reason is cause of the camaraderie of playing against
other players some of whom you know to be very good at poker.
I mean you get to play with Wil Wheaton, Iggy, the good Doctor Pauly and the list keeps going.

here is a hand from the FINAL Table, Yeah thats right I managed to Not Donk
myself out early as usual.

Now SirWaffles thinks i made a donk play But i don't see it that way.
its the final table and only the big stacks were real comfortable. And I wasn't one of them.

I tried to steal but ran into a hand lucky for me,
I caught and Carmensincity didn't.
If I had Known she was a Pretty as she is good at poker maybe I would have folded.

FeliciaLee: "I think the end has pretty much come. I have wanted to forget about this journal so many times. I kept it going due to obligation I felt to Scott, the readers, myself, Glenn, etc."

Wow, First Iggy and now Felicia, Who will be next.
I know I usually flamed Felicia since she always seemed to
be bitchy in her writings but she is a good writer and seems like a nice person.

It is a shame to see another "Poker Blogger" Take down thier shingle.

thanks for the interesting reads Felicia.

Say it isn't so

First off, I want to thank each and every one of you who wrote about Guinness and Poker, and more importantly, everyone and anyone who came here to read about our beloved game of poker. You're the reason I blogged my ass off for over three years.

Wow Iggy Has decided to end guinnessandpoker. This is a sad day for all of us.
He is the BlogFather one who started the whole Poker Blogging thing with his Uber work killing Posts.


I guess everything must come to an end at some point but its a shame that he is hanging it up since he put out such quality posts (unlike Me). It truly is a shame.

Wow I haven't posted in almost 2 weeks. Why Well poker has been marginally better as of late. I am going back to limit poker on full tilt. It is where i am most comfortable playing.

The Patriots are doing their best to make the afc east a competive race.
It's really a shame that they have lost 2 in a row for the first time in like 4 years since they had a chance to play for the bye which now looks like a loooong shot.

Tom Brady has looked more like Ryan Leaf the last couple of weeks than himself.
4 interceptions just isn't very good.
Is he hurt or is this still just an adjustment period with his new receivers??? all his int's have been High. and we are talking about a QB who is usually extremely accurate.
why sign The Testacle (testeverde) who is 42?????

I think the pats will be fine and bounce back with a win this week since they are playing the Sucky Packers


They better fucking win since they have the Bears at home next week. and that game was moved from 1 to 4pm which is interesting since If the Pats had won atleast 1 of the last 2 games they probably would have moved the game to 8pm.

the Patriots should win this game by atleast 14 points.

What A Week

Where do I start,

First the Patriots who are the best team in the NFL Smoked the
Minnesota Vikings (thanks for the money Drizz). Nice Pass Defense the Vikings have
They are the #1 run defense but looked like the #32 pass defense, I really thought the game
would be closer but that is why they play the games.

Maybe After the Patriots Beat the colts this Sunday Night They will start to get the respect they deserve. You gotta remember they were rated no higher than the 12th best team to start the season. and the DOLPHINS (insert Joke) were picked to win the superbowl.

Yesterday the Gold Gloves were awarded, I only have a problem with 1 really and that
would be Derek Jeter Winning at shortstop. I mean do people actually pay attention
He is not even close to being the best DEFENSIVE shortstop in the AL.
Infact I would say he isnt even in the TOP 3. I am not trying to be a Homer Redsox
fan But after watching Alex Gonzalez play short all year I don't understand how
Jeter can win it for the 3rd year in a row it is a Joke.
the award is not about who is a better hitter or more valuable to thier team its supposed to be the best fielder Plain and simple.

         Year Ag Tm  Lg Pos   G     PO    A    E   DP    FP   lgFP  RFg  lgRFg  RF9  lgRF9  GS   Inn

   jeter: 2006 32 NYY AL  SS  150  214  381   15  81  .975  .970  3.97  4.02  4.14  4.49  149 1292.3 

M young: 2006 29 TEX AL SS 155 241 493 14 113 .981 .970 4.74 4.02 4.87

the award is not about who is a better hitter or more valuable to thier team its supposed to be the best fielder Plain and simple, and you can see here that both Michael Young and Alex Gonazez are better defensively than jeter.
look at putouts and assists and young is way ahead of jeter and Feilding Position Young and Gonzalez are way ahead. Now look at DP and assists and you tell me how Jeter wins????

Crazy I know.

i am sure I will be here next week telling you David Ortiz got screwed
when Jeter wins the MVP also. But I will save that for another post.
