That's what dumb people do. Take the thousand and put it in an index fund.

If i had 1,000 i would buy 2 cases of steel shot, 4 dozen really nice duck decoys and a decent pair of neoprene chest waders. Somewhere in state, so the tax revenue can go to the state. I would kill about 200 ducks with that gear. I hope that convinces you.

I put down a parlay and LSU money e was one of the parley picks. If they wi and my parley pays out I win $2900 if they lose or any of my parley leg loses I’m out $25.

You’re betting based on pure emotion.

I don’t bet much, especially on LSU. However, I believe this is a lock and I would bet it all day long. I will come back to eat crow if I am wrong.

I never bet on a game that I want to enjoy watching.

Beyond that, try this excuse:

SPECIAL TEAMS

Special teams can be a 10 point swing in a game, and when teams don't take it seriously it becomes a huge wild card.

Special teams have been a negative early in the season the last 2 years. What has Brian Kelly done to make you think he has addressed this? Does his refusal to hire a special teams coordinator excite you? Do we have some stud kickers or punters that I am missing? Do we have some Patrick Peterson level returner ready to go? How is our kick coverage?

I don't think anyone knows what the D is going to do. It's not going from 88 to 34 the first game out. I would not do it on the 1st game. We're ranked 12 or 13 because of the ? on the D, otherwise this is a top 6 or 7 team. Bet 100 instead of 1,000.
