Gonna start and try to continue this thread for a month before I get engaged. Let's see how small or big the ring will be by the time I buy it in a month. Girl despises gambling so planning to quit once ring is bought. March 3rd is our 5th anniversary. Wish me Luck :) and hope she doesn't find out.
1unit = $50 ( I know why so low? I'm poor college student so can't bet more than that unless I have a really good feel for a specific game)
2/1/2012
-San Antonio -5 - 1unit (Houston suffered a huge loss to my Twolves so they will rebound however AT&T center is good for the Spurs so I feel they will cover)
-OKC-MAV - Over 197 - 1 unit (the spread is small for both teams so I expect this to go down to the wire with hopefully both teams shooting lights out)

If i was you i'd tell her to STFU and do some cooking and once she has done the cooking to tea bag my nuts in her mouth, Let the men be men and women be women. We dont tell them to quit going shopping or gossiping with there friends i dont see why you have to quit an honest hobby of yours, If you let her get her way now next thing you know you will be wearing pink jumpers because she thinks it suits you and makes you look all cuddly, Man up mate.

planning and actually doing are 2 very different things

I agree with this fellow.
Not to say you should not respect your wife's wishes, but I think if this is A) a hobby and you control it then there is really no fucking issue.
If you do this to B) make money and you are successful at it.. then she should shut the fuck up.
my girl hated gambling too, until she saw me get paid. and paid... and paid some more. now if she is in a good mood, she helps me break down teams dog. no exaggeration, and if she is not, she goes and plays with the kid until I'm done handicapping.
you let this shit slide bro and let me tell you, its gonna get worse... it would be one thing if you were already married ...she can take half your shit, different ball game all together, but if you are just in the BUY A RING stage, trust me amigo, you should be as stubborn as humanely possible so that you can retain some of your personality when she has you by the balls with a mortgage ,and a couple kids, and no new box. lol.
I say if you're giving up all other box in the world that should be good enough .

She knew I used to bet all the time on small games. I stopped for a while now though kept up with reading the forums. She does not know about the current endeavor

Imakeplays - true true. Still not gonna let her get in the way of my sports, camping, and fishing. Just gotta slowly persuade her that "Controlled" gambling is doable. The thing is that she has a had a bad past with her father gambling so that's rubbing off on me.
Coverlane - Spoke too soon, was at work and spurs covered while I wasn't watching.

(Memphis has been crummy on the road and they really are not playing up to their post season run last year. Their win against Denver two days ago was due to Denver's collapse in my opinion. ATL can hold their ground at home)
leans: Denver depending on spread.

Probable pick 2/2/2012 ATL-4 .
