I'm at a banquet hall which was rented out for today and I would estimate in total between everybody here (20 people) there is around $200,000 in play on Atlanta.

You were nuts not to fade the steam late imo. Pretty even teams. Matter fact Cards grade a little better.

It got pretty high. I'm on my 2nd jack and coke already. Nobody is eating any of the appetizers here really and nobody really is eating. They are just drinking and watching the tvs.

Sorry if you've posted this before.
Where are you from? I'm actually dying to know. My best guess is somewhere in Eastern Europe.

I'm Norwegian and live in Southern Minnesota.

Many with Scandinavian heritage live in this area.

One of my friends little brother is almost done with college at Minnesota. He keeps blabbering about his favorite band Lacuna Coil is performing there or around there this month.

Gambling is something if you're not careful you can lose control. You can box yourself and cut off reality. For the most part the guys I'm with have the ability to not go off the deep end. Some have wives and kids some do not. It's just life. Emotions run high. They run low.

1st inning should have sealed the game already. Let that one get away.

RailNazi watches a playoff game and keeps track of how many hits the white players get, what a sad existence this guy lives

I don't like that shit though. I dont like the stare when your team is down 4 in the 9th.

I will go as far as saying if he runs that out and makes it to 3rd, Atlanta pulls away and wins comfortably.

Acuna is a piece of shit. And will always be one

I'll say it though. Cardinals have been a class act organization for how many years now? Since the end of time.

I just cant wrap my brain around somebody like Acuna who just made an extra 100 million before the season started has the audacity to do what he did. Also trying to steal failed.

It appauls me we give these guys the respect.

Snitker just made clear in the post game press conference that he would have pulled Acuna out of the game if he was not shorthanded in a playoff game and had no choice. He had to control himself when asked the question about Acuna not hustling out of the box and not explode.
 
I'm guessing it wasn't on a national stage.

It was bad. I remember another young Brave CF (Andrew Jones) who was yanked mid game by Bobby Cox for not hustling.
I don't think setting transcends age, immaturity, or stupidity.

When one isn't in the limelight, they can afford to act (somewhat) stupidly without likely repercussions. You Cadillac on the basepaths thinking you have a HR, you will (and deserve) to get your ass ripped apart by media and fans (probably teammates too).

Sure I agree with that. You make that kind of money it comes with scrutiny. But he said I can't wrap my head around why he'd do that. 21yr olds are stupid is my answer.
