.. and if Collins hits the WR who had a step on the DB this would have never come up. Collins' throw didn't miss by much.

Looked like he threw it too flat. A little air under that pass and it's 6 points. Cost me a 4-team parlay.

I still don't understand it although it didn't mean the game as Houston had two timeouts and 1:54 to play with if Bironas' number was called and he made the 49 yarder. I was surprised to say the least. It was a tricky wind that day, but not enough to make Fisher temporarily lose his mind.

Hell, if you truly wanted to go tinfoil hat, one could conspire it as being a pity call for the Houston community considering he was hired as a head coach of the Houston Oilers.

I laugh every time I see this word or "teaser" with reference to betting on games. Let me guess, you've lost a shitload of money in your lifetime but only remember the "big payouts." Typical loser...

Well, at least you correctly labeled it a “guess”. No, ucunt, I’m not a big-time gambler, and I’ve not lost a “shitload of money” in my lifetime. I occasionally like to play a 3 or 4 team parlay. I play it for $5, and I don’t do it every week. I’ve hit two this year which puts me even or not far from it. Cheap fun. Not that a bitter little fuck like you has any understanding of fun.

For some reason, "teaser" and "parlay" seems to bring the gambling dumbfucks out of the woodwork, and Gobbles is no exception. Shocking.

So, not only are you a loser, you're a frugal one at that… of course, dumping the welfare check on one bet sorta sucks… so you string out your losses to get your weekly fix. Got it.

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit, is it?

Not that this thread made any sense to begin with.

The tits were favored by 3 and lost by one.

Emphasis bing on the word lost, since they'd have needed to win by 4 to cover

Allow me to explain the basic premise for the benefit of KC simpletons. The thread started out questioning why Fisher passed on the field goal on 4th down that could have won the game, instead going for the first down, and potential touchdown, that could have won the game and covered.

You enjoy losing money… albeits in small amounts. It's "fun" to you. What am I missing, loser?

I said I didn't play one every week. You immediately referred to my weekly fix. Christ, I might be down $5 or $10 for the whole year. Woo-hoo. Continue bittering.
