Thoughts and Observations from 2 Years of Posting and 2 Years of Lurking at therx.com:
-As much as we are all angry at the potential legislation being passed, I have to admit one thing: Gambling brings out the worst in people. If you want to see what I mean, just visit an ace-ace thread after he loses one weekend. There is some ugliness in this world, and I'd say gambling brings out and catalyzes some of that ugliness.
- There may not be a classier guy than oldmanTED. Class isn't an act that you put on. It's what you do at all times. It's what you do when nobody is watching. The guy has character. It's easy to set up shop behind a computer screen and let some poor bastard on the other end feel your wrath - you'll probably never meet him. But even behind closed doors, oldmanTed is all class. I've never seen this guy show a hint of the dark side. Maybe he beats his wife, snorts a line and then comes on here and says "Be well". But I doubt it. Big ups to oldmanTizzle. Fo shizzle.
-Speaking of class: what's with gamblers and the following words: sharp and class. If you're sharp and you have class, I don't think there is a better compliment one gambler can give to another. On the flip side, you can call someone a cocksucker and tell them that you fornicated with his grandmother, but your ass better not call him a "square". He may get angry.
-Funniest Signature: Omnivorous Frog. Love him or hate him, he makes some good posts. But the funniest is when he rips someone a new anus, and then at the end of the post, right after he calls you a liar and a sheep, you have this little guy waving at you like it's all okay and he meant it in a good way: :howdy:
-Speaking of funny...Skinsraj. He's not just putting on some show for everyone. Even when you e-mail this guy privately, he is hilarious. We were talking serious in e-mails back and forth and he says something along the lines to me of:
"Thanks a lot for helping me with this. By the way I have an erection right now. Do what you will with that information."
-I've realized that West Coasters are completely mentally and physically wacked out and flustered by the apparent East Coast Bias. Usually, it clouds their judgement. As an example, when I open a thread of Railbird or Winkyduck, I already know before I open it, they picked a west coast team over an east coast team. It happens everytime, regardless of the game or spread.
-This face....:smoking: is probably the funniest stupid animation face on this message board, only when it is used in the context of some poster talking about his wife.
-It's incredible what the words "Good luck" mean to a gambler. You can absolutely insult somebody, but if you say good luck at the end, they really dont care anymore what you said. Especially when mixed with the below icon:
-People think this icon....:toast: mixed with a "Good Luck"....makes everything better.
"Fuck you you asshole. I hope you die. Fucking prick. Anyways...
Good luck...:toast: "
-Coldweather may be the most underrated capper in certain sports. Yes he usually takes the dog, bla bla. But when he takes favorites, you know that play is money. On a side note: Coldweather is either very patient or mentally retarded. Can you imagine posting the same EXACT POST OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER 4,000 times? I couldnt do it.
"In-depth forensic analysis. I take them because they are tall. Clapping fans. Insert dancing men
." By the 3rd time making the same post, I would say to myself..."Holy shit bro I am bored. I feel like Ive done this before 4,000 times. Holy shit....I have." We all get a kick out of his posts, but can you imagine actually physically POSTING the same thing everyday?
- I think people should have more fun on here. We are all gambling and a few of us do this for a living, but for the most part we do this to supplement income and because it's a fun hobby. I dont think people should be ripped for bumping their threads, and having a party in their own threads and celebrating. As long as they dont clutter up the forum with it by making multiple threads. When I hit big plays, I am excited. I'm amped. And sometimes I like to share my excitement with other sports bettors that I can relate to, because my grandmother and my girlfriend just dont give 3 fucks whether or not I win a bet. (Not that you do either, but at least you can relate)
- I am convinced there is not one poster on this board that enjoys gambling and making friends more than Gyno. He seems like the type of guy that he would sit in a sportsbook all day long, and he would know every person in there before he left it. And he would be the happiest man on the earth. And the only reason he would leave it is to probably snap a bong rip.
- According to bash pictures, there are apparently some good looking women gambling on sports like billsfan and xpanda. That makes me take back everything I said about roxy, and I admit that she probably is a smoking hot blonde.........No I made that up. I know 3 Ginas and they are all unattractive and have penises. What a coincidence.
Great forum. Let's make some CASH.
Fuck all of you. :howdy:
