I'm sorry about your pick, I had a couple of instances where I waited too long and lost my streak because of it. Two NCB season ago I was thinking of taking Baylor -2 when they played at Nebraska and I did not lock it in until it became -2.5 and I Baylor won by 2. This past March Madness I was thinking about taking Arizona/Texas Over 139 and did not lock it in until it went up to 140.5 and they ended up at 139.

Yes! I wish you would have gotten the W, but at least you got that Push. Congrats on your very first meaningful push! Good luck, tomorrow on your picking. I wished that they could have squeezed in another run for a win but at least I avoided going back to 0 and have my first Push in months with a streak besides 0.

If there Iis anybody out there that doesn't understand why the 25 Dime Club hates the Chicago Cubs. I will show the latest in a long line of exhibits. We noticed earlier in the season that alot of our members were losing their streaks on the Cubs. So we decided to always bet against the Cubbies. Well I don't know if Bama or anyone kept records but it appeared that we lost 90% of the time in a game involving the Cubs. We bet against them they win. We bet on them they lose. We were even eagerly 
anticipating long Cubs losing streaks so we could fade them.
anticipating long Cubs losing streaks so we could fade them. Well we got so frustrated with the inconsistencies 
we decided to leave the Cubs alone. Well because I am a complete hard head degenerate. I went with the Cubs today thinking these punks because they have been hot would beat the Nationals. Wouldn't you know it. The Cubs 
screwed me again. I can't say I didn't know what I was doing. It's like an actress dating Jesse James (Sandra Bullock's ex) thinking he is a changed man. I'm just a gluten for punishment. Of course I was warned by Bama and myself but nooooooo. I got to feel the pain again and so I went and slept with the enemy. Took the old girlfriend back thinking she had changed.
The Cubs did it to me again. God I hate the Cubs. I just need to leave that cursed team alone and act like they don't exist. Let this be a warning 25 Dime Club LEAVE THE CUBS ALONE! DON'T PICK WITH THEM AND DAM SURE DON'T PICK AGAINST THEM. CUBS ARE OFF LIMITS!

CRUSHALOT AMBUSHED BY BREW CREW!!!
The Brewers scored 2 runs in the 10th inning to end CRUSALOT'S mighty streak at 18! Crushalot was headed for 25 Dimeville and in a surprise move decided to go with the Cardinals at home. But the Brew Crew had other plans for our fellow 25 Dime member and ended his epic run at 18! Congratulations Crushalot on a great run!

Now we turn our attention to Bama's friend Somanyrings. If he is a friend of Bama's then he's a friend of mine. Bama is a standup guy a man's man. BTW Bama invite Somanyrings to the 25 Dime Club so we can honor him as well with this awesome streak he has. It would be a pleasure to meet him.

Tough luck on that Booyahz. These SM's have no idea what you're capable of. With your skills and research you're like a mad scientist in the lab. There is no doubt in my mind that you will go on a epic streak of your own soon. The angles that you have brought to the 25 Dime Club is truly invaluable. I know I have won a few bucks on Bodog just taking your advice. Outstanding. Don't let this temporary bump in the road deter you at all. Fat checks will be coming your way. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Smooth..... What a rush!!! Would have been nice, but that was actually fun. Good luck to the 25 dime club on getting that .... Only advice I could give is to trust your gut. Don't rely too much on the stats and numbers. Stats are only true after tomorrows game is played . Be patient, but I wouldn't wait too long... That's what makes this game so interesting, the different variables. You wait too long and you paint yourself in a corner and are limited to the games that are left. See you guys on the leader board!!
