LIONS

LOCK OF THE WEEK

Line has dropped to Falcons -1.

SUPER BOWL!!

Game is now Pick Em.

Sooo, just for us non-degenerate gamblers.... we are talking pre-season, right? So you are betting on the Falcons pulling their starters prior to the lions AND that a bunch of dudes who will not make the roster will be "better" then the other dudes who wont make the roster? The vast vast majority of them you can't name....
And this is a "LOCK"?
I really need an "for dummies" version of the gambling thing cause this just seems borderline pathological to me.

OR

Super bored with no football to gamble on, and super jazzed about a new season, so I'm just paying my gambler fee cause what else am I going to do with that money? kids college fund? (lolz)

Yes.  I'll take 25% of your winnings.  Nothing if you lose.

David Blough is the guy that messed it up. vintage Detroit Lions football

Let's see

Fumble and turnover with the game clinched

Dropped game winning interception

Get owned on a 4th and 9 wounded duck hail Mary prayer for a td

Not understand there's only 1 timeout so you might need to clock the ball

Wow. The Lions are in mid-season form early on. Sounds like it will be a special Lions season.

I just saw the TD this morning. If there were worse plays, then some guys had money on the Falcons.
