Welcome back football. It's that time of year. Our beloved past time is here again bringing with it a feeling of oneness that no other sport can bring. Like a lifelong friend returning home after being away for some time. Friends not seen for months make their entrances after a mighty slumber. Avid fans begin reaching out in droves, thumbing nasty insults and declaring war into phones to friends, now rivals, that haven?t received texts on a Saturday morning since around the new year.
A fresh start for most after a year they?d rather forget. A new season of hope with fantasies not filled with MOJO but rather payouts and chicken dinners. It?s the time when most make that initial deposit, and tell themselves with a confident smirk, that the book isn?t going to be seeing another dime from ?this guy? all year.
Because now is the time to collect with steady withdrawals, to call the man to arrange collection. There will be no Tuesday payments or future visits to western union to send more cash to a guy named Miguel Rodriguez in Lima, Peru. A time when you laugh, knowing this deposit IS going to roll over ten times and then another ten. Times when the weight of life's tribulations and matters of the heart are lightened and replaced by ninety yard kickoff returns and pick sixes. A time when ?honeydo? lists performed with the speed of a sloth are miraculous completed by GameDay coverage and only after one perfectly planned trip to the Home Depot instead of the usual three. Yes fellas, a time when MadJack?s Political Forum becomes but a background noise after months of incessant cries spilling across the land.
When even the worst villains here, find a change of heart, as if the very Grinch himself at last understands the true meaning of this community.
So without further adieu, welcome back to football?
Consider carefully the following wisdom provided by Scott-Atlanta aka KOD at the close of last year's BCS Championship game.
A winning formula:
1. Get on the right side (Very important!)
2. Reduce your risk
3. Don't be a homer
3. Cash the ticket
4. No women, no children
I will be adding to this over the coming weeks but wanted to use this thread for notes. Three games have my attentions and they are follows:
Troy -6
Georgia +6
La Tech +13?
