HoopLa! 1.5.11

[The Nac]

This will be my first official capping post of 2011, and I'm in a fantastic mood. I love talking to you guys, so lemme give you a recap on my 2010 ended.

• • Flew back home to Ontario December 10 to do the family Christmas and see my girlfriend for the first time since August 14 (she's finishing her last year of nursing while I moved out West to start cleaning up debt and saving money). Flew back to Alberta December 13 after a fun and great weekend back home.
• • Hit a nice 7-game hockey parlay December 15 to make around $1930. Decided now was as good a time as any to finish some important shopping.
• • Bought and paid for my gf's engagement ring December 21.
• • Girlfriend flew in Boxing Day and stayed here until January 5 (left around 12 today)
• • Proposed to her New Year's Eve, and she said yes.
• • Decided to put down a 9 game parlay last night (5 hockey, 4 basketball) and hit just over $1500 on that

So, needless to say, I am feeling pretty great right now, and after my success last night, I'm going to attempt to post a parlay that actually wins. Here's who I'm liking tonight:

Philadelphia 76ers -6½
Chicago Bulls -5
Boston Celtics -3
Charlotte Bobcats +7½
Los Angeles Clippers +3
Los Angeles Lakers -4
Risking $25 to win $1000

I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday season, and here's hoping tonight is kind to our wallets! 2011 is off to a brilliant start for me personally!

Alright sweet. Well since Chicago sucks, I guess I'll just stick to not posting and quietly making some coinage. BOL on your plays guys.
