Haha, I got some funny and sad stories about Vegas, the time I won gloriously the first night I was there, then the trip home 4 days later I had 8 bucks and some change in my pocket.Saw a drunk sit down at the Blackjack table next to me late one night, he was drunk and from all appearances wasn't that great of a player. He was betting 100$ a hand and losing every freaking time. The female Asian dealer didn't look to torn up about taking his money.
Also had a friend go into a local Indian Casino once and won a little over 20 grand, he bought himself some new clothes, a steak dinner and the rest{you guessed it} went right back to the Casino. Not making light of his addiction but gambling addictions are real and sad. Some people have no control.

That guarantee and win over the Colts in the SB made Joe Namath’s career. It comes up in every interview with him and that’s all he ever talks about. It pretty much made him the most famous football player ever, except for maybe O.J. Simpson.

This is what drives me nuts about some gamblers. They'll win big money, and then, instead of doing the smart thing and quitting right then and there to secure their $$$, they promptly blow away what they had just won.

It's the equivalent of a quarterback, holding a four-point lead in a game with just mere seconds remaining, throwing a pick-six to lose the game, rather than just kneeling out the clock.

Gambling addiction is no joke, seriously. When I was in college at UT, I had a roommate that was addicted to day trading. In his dorm room he had like 5 computer monitors going with stock tracking and online trading and a TV going with CNBC on it, he was like hard core. Dude would cut class and just sit there trading for like 8-10 hours at a time. Even when the markets closed, he would get into after hours trading and then got into futures trading. Dude was addicted, he kept telling me that making money off trading was better than sex, lol, I said sure bro, whatever.

Dude graduated and went to work for a finance company and literally spent his whole salary on day trading and then started borrowing money to trade even more and got way overextended. The market then went through a correction after the tech bubble burst, and the guy lost everything. He lost his house, his car, his job, his savings, and he was a couple of hundred thousand in debt. He had to move back home and live with his parents and ended up getting some crap job at a Ford Dealership. Just sad what happened to him all because he couldn't control his addiction.

He broke the number one rule of gambling/trading/betting or whatever you want to call it...……...never risk money you cant afford to lose!

i remember a game between Philly and someone else ( not cowboys )..and that is all he had to do was kneel and game over and QB chose to hand off to running back and the corner back broke through stole the ball and ran for TD to win
the coach of losing team fired next day..i am sure you can look it up...guess who corner back was?..Tony Dungy

Are you referring to the “Miracle at the Meadowlands”?



(If so, it was Herm Edwards and not Tony Dungy. Dungy never played for the Sheagles][/QUO
yes you are correct my bad..i confused Tony with Herm...but nonetheless..i too if i was owner of Giants would have been so ticked off they did not kneel down
