Seriously - offered a pretty serious amount for the parents old homestead and haven’t accepted the offer yet. Wife of course wants me to take the money…I mean - not “life changing” money to me…but would make it a hell of a lot nicer with no mortgage payment every month (or any other debt for...

1-2-1 -157 Now 33-27-4 -788 YTD Can’t catch a break - runner thrown out at home bottom 9 with 1 out in Cubs game. Will look at things shortly - hopefully turn this around this weekend.

5/31 Cubs -143 Nats/Gaurdians u8 -115 Astros -114 Red Sox -165

And another losing day 0-2 -287 YTD 32-25-3 -631 The juice will get you every time - at least I’m still within striking distance of break even with a few good days again. Seems to go one way or the other. Smaller card today - may not be any plays.

True - a lot of guys missed out due to WW2 Oddly - you never hear how guys who were too old for the war effort or didn’t participate for whatever reason “padded” their stats not playing against all the greats who were away. Same for those in negro leagues in this era. Williams was so much...

that’s usually my preferred play - playing faves up to -150 or so - occasionally a home dog. Just like always though - try and get greedy at bases and pad your bankroll with a few bigger faves - it is just as likely to bite you in the ass and take twice as long to make back up.

Stats are just that - statistics. People need to understand just because you hit a higher average - doesn’t mean all factors are equal. Hell - I'd take Ted Williams over most hitters if I needed a hit to win the game - statistically not the greatest - but to the eye test - he is to me. Some...

Of course I go 2-5 and get crushed yesterday 2-5 -663 YTD 32-23-3 -344 For today let’s go with: Guardians -145 Braves -142

A lot going on here that caused the decision… - sponsors pulling out - absentee ownership focused on other series (and 1 who is getting up there in age) - lack of “name” drivers (same as the sport and anyone not named Hendricks is dealing with - the whole argument over charters being permanent...

Adios - but how long until robots take over anyhow ? Baseball probably has the biggest impact on the games outcome with officiating. Football there is replay and challenges of most crucial calls. Basketball there are questionable fouls/no calls - but you don’t last long as a ref calling that...

Just one and they are out of the picture now. Basically they signed over there share for my half of moms house a few years back. Wanted it so I said fine - 8 weeks later the for sale sign was out front. Only wanted what they felt they could turn into cash quickly (evidently the inheritance went...

Chalkier day than usual - but see a little value here: Phillies -192 Padres -125 Yankees -176 Guardians -125 Brewers -158 Rays -169 Orioles -168

Because people are just so extra. Older house and economically depressed area - never ending stream of people “wanting to skip the bank and do a loan with me directly” - or simply being especially stupid with their offers. To top it off - realtor is a complete waste of space. Does nothing and...

They can - I’m sure it would make no difference. Everyone thinks they have it bad - until they see how bad others really have it. Yea - it’s rough getting to that point in your life when your parents are no longer around - or are basically no longer the people your remember. Dealt with...
