    I bought one point on top of my teaser that made it -2.5.... Buying point isn't always bad. It give you more of a peace of mind

    Excuse me....on 8 or 9 points is the sweet spot so it's even worse than I stated.

    Up to $7500, now -$2k or close to that in just 2 games.  It's always the ones who open their mouths that lose it all the quickest.  Sorry, that does suck, but if I were you, I would not post anything for a while.  Your credibility is not looking too good right now.

    Sooo JR, you talk about squares this and squares that... However you are constantly purchasing points. Since you are so rich I assume you know what an oxymoron is?

    Just a heads up, your math is more than a tad bit off here.
