Just Say No.......

After crushing it yesterday thanks to my NCAA College Hoops Game of the Year Play, Georgia -2 over South Carolina, I decided to celebrate the only way I know how. Called Dream up and got center ice seats for today's Rangers game. While Dream had no feel on the game, he looked at me and muttered "we are taking the Rangers for five dimes. I don't goto games where I have no action. might as well be dead". I then asked Dream if it felt weird spending Valentine's day with me instead of his wife. After pondering my inquiry, Dream shook his head and said "you both annoy the crap out of me, now get me a grey goose straight up". With the Rangers currently leading 4-2, things are feeling pretty good right about now.

During the second period some poor dope got "the Gas face" from his girlfriend, in the form of a NO to his live marriage proposal. For this guy's sake I hope it was staged but judging by his reaction, this looked like a real rejection. While most people laughed and called this guy a LOSER, a few ladies behind me were feeling sympathetic towards him. At one point Dream turned around and suggested they console him. When one woman replied "Console him...how?
Dream looked in disgust and said bluntly "use your imagination I am sure you can come up with something". Details to follow......

For tonight's release I am taking UCLA +7 at USC. This is definitely an off year for the Bruins but this is a rivalry game. SC has no right laying 7 in this game and my proprietary model / trend analysis suggests this will be a close game. One drawback is the tipoff is not until 10pm so for all you guys out there.....do what you have to do early. Take the ball and chain out for an early dinner and "speed up the process" so you aren't combing the internet looking for updates on the game. For those of you in a less serious relationship, buy some flowers, walk over to your chick's apartment and feign an illness. Pretend to be sick as a dog then when she presses you tell her "I think it's best if I make this up to you another night". Then go to a sports bar and watch this thing in peace. Incidentally Valentine's night is a fantastic time for foul hooking some stray who finds herself without a date and watching a game at some dive bar next to a degenerate gambler.
