worst beat ever

Had one of my biggest bets ever on Oklahoma, giving 13, up 20 with 2 minutes left and won by 11, included a couple of maulings by VCU with no calls, a technical on Caple of all things, saw his guys getting mugged and was not happy but who calls a T with 40 seconds to go? Okl also missed a couple of ft's, I know this is sour grapes but the refereeing was really suspicous and I have never agreed with consipracy theory but it was awful

mostly jiust a lurker so this is opportunity to thank all of you for the handicapping i do as I steal your picks

Don't let it beat yah down. It sucks, i know, but remember that you are alive and have good health. Just come back strong and be determined to get it back.

Good points to remember. As long as you gamble on sports you will be on the good side of close wins and the bad side too. There is NO way around it. Gamble on hundreds of games and you'll feel like you sweat out at least half of them. Vegas is that good at setting the lines. Most important to remember in this holiday season that people, and not money, is the most important thing of all. Money is just something you need if you don't die tomorrow.

I know how ya feel BT....I just took one on the Minnesota NBA game last night....Catching six and down five, Minn. shoots a 3 that rebounds with approx. 8 seconds left.....They foul (why? I have no idea, the game is over).....Battier hits 2 FT's and Minnesota misses a worthless 3 at the end....

It happens....We gotta swallow hard and move on.....Good luck....
