Bad Beat/Moaning/Venting - pray for Lazare

[luckforsome]

Has to be the best sport for late drama. NFL can be close at times

...Good two putt for Rory, I'd make him slight favorite just because of his ability, but this is great sporting viewing...Can't fucking wait for Friday...

[CHDad]

Golf must be the only game where people at the very top aren't playing for the cash, cause they have so much, but are playing for the win?

Some money on the line.

Mellor - your opinion on the hamdog and is Australia prepared for the influx of people who will inevitably move to a country that sells hamdogs?


http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/976/cps...24874102_n.jpg

Only seen this post on a rescan of the BBV. Sorry hitch.
First impression on the Hamdog is that it is quintessential aussie bogan fair. I can just imagine a typical mullet sporting redneck opt for a hamdog over his usually combo of a burger and a hotdo, in order to leave a hand free for a can of XXXX.


I think I'll be safe from the influx though. It's only available in western australia by the looks of things. To put that in perspective, that's about the distance from Dublin to the middle of Turkey, or the far side of the Volga in southern Russia.

What a finish, came from 3 shots behind with 3 to play. Legend, absolute legend.

What was that putt worth? $13,000,000 I think. Plus 2 trophies of course.

More than you can imagine

Coulda woulda shoulda post incoming

Was gonna back Moore @50/1 but his price shortened and didn't bother, deciding to leave golf till next season

If I'd backed him woulda doubled him with Ben Coley's tip in Europe

Coley's tip won @40/1, just left work, check scores walking up road, see Moore is in playoff and all I can see is the £20K I'm about to miss out on

Think I need a drink

& Christ I do love McIlroy right now

Eagles..... Its our year

Can't believe the two lads got to place the balls in the rough. Cue Kenneth Williams

Yeah, that was nuts. One was standing on a sprinkler head so fair enough, he got a good break though because his lie was much deeper in the rough originally and would have had to chip out sideways instead he got a chance to lay up.
The other one got to drop then place the ball because some stupid woman picked up his ball FFS, this gave him a massive advantage over where he would have been and would have been all but out of it.
As it was he went out on that hole anyway but when I saw the 2 boys hitting it into the crap and Rory creaming it down the centre I thought is was all over.
Justice prevailed in the end though

Ah, it was only $11,530,000. I was counting 11.5m plus 1.53m for winning the tournament but it's 10m for the fedex and 1.53m for the tourney.

I want you guys to know something. You are all guys almost. Be REALLY proud of your daughters. Raise them proud. Be proud of your daughters and raise them proud and they will be proud of you. :-) Be proud of your sons and raise them proud and they will be proud of you.

This is what I got up to over the weekend.

Almost through 'Race for the Whitehouse' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5194802/ Really enjoyed it, though I'm still coming to terms with my newfound respect for Nixon.

Gave the Clontom one a watch, looking forward to the rest.

Someone asked recently about screenings of Louis Theroux's new doc. Not looking likely here unfortunately going by this.

I for one am deeply upset and will be watching it illegally on the internet solely because I cannot pay for it.

Tuesday and Wednesday. Though obv thst means from 9 pm tonight as they *need* to put the buses to bed early.

Nah today might be a sick day. I woke up silly early so tried the get an earlier bus t dodge the rush. 45 minutes wait at a bus stop where they are meant to be every 15.
Then it arrives and takes a few minutes extra at each stop as it is so wedged and crowds of punters have built up at stops.

First headline I noticed in the shop was that the euro millions driver syndicate were pissed to they had to pay for their own celebration party and Dublin bus 'didn't even buy them a drink'.

We were out at Strandhill and climbed the hill behind the town. Grand spot.

Good food everywhere we went and even managed to do some clay pigeon shooting yesterday.

Planning to buy Hilary on the Trump bounce tonight. The first debate is a great opportunity to buy variance imo. There will presumably be an entertainment based boost to Trump chances that don't touch on the underlying demographics that speak quite strongly to a Hilary win. I'm a Raoul-level politics punter though, so take that fwiw.

Still wouldn't really be value according to Nate's model

They had enough Kerrymen cheering them on the last day. Ship me up those Kerry county board tickets thanks.

I am taking every precaution, avoiding housework, minding kids, dealing with stuff etc. Currently administering the well known cure of a party bowl containing toffee popcorn, M&Ms and fizzy cola bottles while crashed out on the couch.

Hmm I'm going to Budapest to celebrate thanksgiving (don't get started on how weird any of that is buit I have 6 weeks of holidays to take and you have to get creative at this stage of the year) but I have a concert the night before that I got tickets to months ago...contemplating powering through to a 6am flight or just be an old person and skip the gig. :| I need coke hitch.

Not to mention that I have surgery coming up on an unknown date and a week in Amsterdam as well as the week in Budapest to dodge...

You can choose any player on any team, even no goalscorer

even if a player is not listed, ring and they will put on

Any idea why the 'discrepancy' between those figures (44/55) and say betfair odds (1.62/2.8){i.e. 62%/35% roughly) ??

If you give Nate's model credence, means a huge volume of money riding on 'he can't win, can he?' type thinking.

ok cheers. i did it first time at weekend because seen it had been won last 2 weeks. didnt expand anything just clicked what was listed on the page. saw that I managed to hit 6/7 lukaku being the missed one which was same with most people id imagine.

That will help being more choice of players but there looks to be lots of people on 6 with tonights game to play. I have Deeney and he will be popular.

I thought i was closer to the tie breaker too goal was scored on 23rd minute and I had the 24.00-24.59 bracket but then saw that will be 22.00-22.59 bracket so some other fucker is going to have Deeney too and be inside me on the time. With the amount on 6 im probably not live for the consolation prize

[Raoul Duke III]

The Oarsman a fine spot, well it used to be in the 06/07 era.

Still is, packed out with mainly locals of a Friday lunchtime.
