Monday will be my last day of gambling..

I need help, shits taking over my life.. I've quit for months before, but feel that I just need to pull the plug on it for life.. who knows about when i'm older, more mature, and can manage my time better.. my exams are coming up soon, essays due. I haven't slept in two days, litterally.. I'm still up, since Wednesday, most of the time was spent on handicapping.. shits gotta stop, and theres no better time..

This is just a heads up, for those who may possibly look at my plays, so there aren't any where is he threads.. I will still particapte in pools like March Madness contests, or contests where you pick the team straight up.. but will not participate in the daily handicapping of games..

I might come back to the forum every couple days, and look at the NFL card and post my leans... but I will NOT be gambling, and I will NOT be handicapping the games, simply looking at the card and create a systematic hunch.

Thanks everyone, and I will try and stay in touch with many of you.. Monday November 24th is my final day of gambling.

Take Care,
Matt

Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

thanks guys, just shits been hitting the fan lately.. have had some trouble with the law, not sleeping, not going to class.. whats next? My favourite times of the year is when I take time off from gambling as I become more sociable with my friends, meet more people, study harder and all-in-all have a better life..

Thanks guys.
Matt

You gotta at least throw the hockey forum a GOY or 2 over the holidays (no school then).

Oh, and make sure you start another I quit gambling thread next year on 11/21/09 to keep the trend of this sort of thread alive.

Or remember jaypasco's post in Walk's thread last year:
