Thursday
I don’t know how I won this one but I did. Not having a fg until the fourth quarter and then getting two was such a great feeling. Watching a game with what I would say are the best jerseys ever was fantastic. However, watching someone essentially almost die on the field was not great. How he managed to even play that game in the first place was nuts. I mean is the NFL trying to cancel the NFL. Like what the fuck is going on. Especially in a short week and on primetime how does he get the go ahead to play. I mean that injury was horrifying to watch and can’t be great to show millions what really happens in the sport. But I still won my bet lol.
Gambling thoughts I need to tell myself in the future:
Are the Bengals back to the 2021 Bengals? I still don’t know. I mean they beat the Dolphins without Tua and it didn’t look very convincing. They are still in a spot for me where they are barely inside the top ten. The Dolphins are good with Tua and bad without. Shocker. They will win a lot of games once he is back. But I will stay away from betting on them until he is back and then I will still give it a game or two to make sure he can still function.
Friday
Holy shit what the fuck just happened. I deserved it. I got too cocky. I bet on a fucking Friday. I bet on the most obvious play on the board. I am a fish. I mean the bet shouldn’t have lost in the first place but still.. Up 7 with a 3:04 against a third string QB. At home. A former ranked team against a team full of backups. Before Tulane’s game tying drive they had 24 yards of offense. And their only score in the second half before the drive was a fuckin recovered fumble for a touchdown. It should have never lost. I should be up so many units right now. How did they lose? Tulane had their third string QB who didn’t even start the game like come on. I hate sports. But we need to rebound. You win some and you lose some. I guess. I don’t fucking know.
Gambling thoughts I need to tell myself in the future:
FIRE HOLGORSEN. I will do my best to stop betting on Fridays. Not having a day off and sweating is fucking torture especially when you lose.
Saturday
I mean it was just a bad bet. What else can I say? Oklahoma fuckin blows. TCU came out firing, breaking every tackle and coverage. Oklahoma looked lost from the start. They are in shambles since Riley left. I didn’t know Riley’s brother was the TCU offensive coordinator and that is on me. I should have known and done more research. The logic behind this pick was pretty shit too. I started researching the board and because everyone was on TCU I started looking at this matchup more. The stats did make it look like a good pick but clearly I was wrong. Dead fucking wrong. It was deceased from the start and now I really needa start thinking outside the box. Going to try and go for more dogs. Not forcing anything but I have to stop going for favorites.
Gambling thoughts I need to tell myself in the future:
I have to stop chasing when I am in a rage. Simple. I have to get out of my comfort zone as well and start betting on dogs.
Sunday
I mean talk about changing things up. I bet on fucking Wentz. Of course it didn’t work. That line just made no sense. I should have gone with something else. I liked the Titans all week and of course I didn’t take them. I wish I would have gone with anything fucking else but that. Even if it lost I would have enjoyed it more than watching fucking Carson Wentz throw the ball. I really did just torture myself. Why the fuck did I do that to? I should have just gone with my Chiefs. I mean Reid and Mahomes don’t lose two games in a row. They are the best team in the league and I shoulda just went with it. I was also tortured by having to watch Baker Mayfield and the Panthers. That season’s total is pretty much dead too. I mean Baker looked like a child out there. He was too short to throw over anyone and when he did he overthrew every WR by a mile. And they still haven’t fired Rhule. Fuck. Terrible weekend. I should have known how this weekend would go after Friday’s loss.
Gambling thoughts I need to tell myself in the future:
Never bet on Carson Wentz.
Never bet on Carson Wentz.
Never bet on Carson Wentz.
Never bet on Carson Wentz.
Never bet on Carson Wentz.
Never bet on Carson Wentz.
Never bet on Carson Wentz.
Never bet on Carson Wentz.
Never bet on Carson Wentz.
Monday
I needed to stop the freefall at some point. This one was huge for the psyche. It was a little scary but I trusted Ray-Ray. He had that one look early and it got blocked at the line so that was scary. But then the next time he got a target he got the grab and picked up the yards easily. Really needed this one. He did exactly what I predicted too. He also got the most targets he has ever gotten in a game this season. All I needed was one catch and Ray-Ray pulled through. Finally got me out of the losing streak. Onto the next.
Gambling thoughts I need to tell myself in the future:
Maybe I should just become a props bettor? I mean I feel much better about picking props right now then I do games. These more obscure props have been good to me too. I mean I should have also picked out that rat 49ers line but I won so that is all that really matters. Thinking of going with another prop since this next TNF game looks very very sus.
