Once again I want to thank everyone for the kind words and support. It motivates me to hear others throw out they like reading this, etc.. Thanks again.
I bet a Minnestoa Vikings 50-1 future to win the SB at the Plaza hotel. It's not that I like them but 50-1 was a great price and the fact they have played a very hard schedule so far and play in the weak NFC north gives them a good shot to win the division, then just maybe they can get hot in the playoffs. The funny thing is I hated them in August when everyone else was all over them. They do have some talent on both sides of the line of scrimmage. Bottom line I think there is a ton of value at 50-1, all the other places had them 30-1 or less. I am looking for someone in the AFC as I think that conference is wide open. It's still a longshot but I think it warrants a small play at 50-1.
One thing I am really proud of myself about is not betting for the sake of betting, showing discipline. Now I bet a lot of stuff and always if I find a great line, no matter what the sport, etc. Tonites CFB I couldnt find anything so I walked away. I am proud of myself for that. So this is only the second time since September 1st I didnt have a play for the day.
I went swimming yesterday. It was probably the first time I have went in almost 20 years. We have a communitity pool in our neighborhood so I figured I would give it a go. I actually enjoyed it. I woke up a tad sore today, not happy about that but it was something I expected.
As I walking back home from the pool I started to think how happy I am right now to be here doing something I love. My old man has always told me " that life is about piece of mind." It's still way too early in the game to know if this was the right move but overall I am very happy I came out here to try and do this and most importantly to me is that I am here working for myself. There is no better feeling to me then knowing it's on my shoulders and I will be rewarded (or punished) based on how well I do my job.
Also wanted to added something i have been using that Sports Savant told me a about,. It's a software program called roboform. Basically it allows you to go to your sportsbook of choice and when you do it sends you right to the book and logs you in instantly. I have had it a few days and I love it. I highly reccommend it to anyone with books that time out or some one that uses more than 1 book at a time. I havent really scratched the surface with this thing and I already love it and cant imagine what I did before I had it.
