Unhappy When you lose every game!

It just sucks all the wind out of you.

Normally after the week, I second guess myself because we all have plays we liked for a minute but play something else right?

Yesterday, I could have went with any play, any combination and would have lost. I think if I picked every game, I may have won two of them.

And some of them may have been right side but some of them were god awful. 0-5 in the Hilton too, that's hard to recover from!

It shakes you, makes you feel like you''ll never win another game

Oh and I am in like 5 fantasy football leagues - probably didn't win a game there either.

A big ouch! This ain't no John Cougar Mellancamp - "it hurts so bad"

having never had more than a two game losing streak and I can only speculate at the possible solutions that would alleviate your misery

to wit:

lake jumping
hat eating
masturbating
money burning (literally)
watching reruns of friends
watching reruns of saved by the bell

Hopefully somehow the US gets betfair, when you get it wrong you can often still make money.
To give you an eg. I liked Caro ML v Chicago, so prematch took it. Since I was just about to go to sleep, punched in Chicago at -110, to make a small profit if they won.
So while I didn't follow the game, Caro must have had a good patch as my bet on Chicago was matched. So walked away with a small profit even though I got it wrong.
