Like it or not Emilio is a WWII veteran.

One(1) of less than thirty(30) in the state of Nevada.

Bullshit.
Stolen valor is illegal, and you're dumb enough to brag about it here.

MMM=meat makin money

It's a two(2) step process cheap.

First you(not you) need to stop losing money(stop the bleeding).

Then you have to learn that winning is boring.

$110 to win $100 player up $170 so far this season following my NBA picks.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring!

But most guys after twenty-five(25) NBA picks are down a nickle or more.

Let's see what happens the next twenty-five(25) plays.

I started out in the whole which was not easy to dig out of when you are posting/betting picks posted to the public.

But that's a good thing because nobody can say I started out hot and just picked a lucky day to start posting plays.

Yes, the William Hill and Stations app works at Sunrise Hospital.

Sprint sucks, but I get my bets in.

Maybe somebody in Las Vegas can pay Emilio a visit?

I go every day to see him.

There is another guy(nice kid) who is also helping.

My WWII friend has no family to help him. No visits. No calls.

He will be in the hospital/rehab for months.

Let me know if you want to go pay him a visit?

The owner of EOG("1") met him and gave him $800.00 to buy his new used car.

Emilio said he("1") asked for the envelope back.

He could not figure out why a total stranger would give him $800.00 and then ask for a $0.05 envelope back?

I told him(and still tell him) don't worry about that.

I can Uber/Lyft to Sunrise, and then we can go get something to eat after that.

Just for the record there was some good news for Emilio today.

He got a letter from the Department of Veterans Affairs that I brought to him in the hospital.

It said:
"Your pension award received a cost of living adjustment. You new payment is now $540.00 up from $530.00."

Emilio is on 20%. They raised it to 30% with NO financial compensation from 20% a few years ago?

"We are considering your income of $0.00 from earnings. $8500.00 from SS based on $710.00 a month. $0.00 from retirement /annuity and $0.00 from other sources."

If anybody wants to help please contact The MeatMan at dave@meatandpotatoes.com

Manu Ginobili's three-ball with five seconds left wins it for the Spurs.

He's one of my favorite NBA players and he's still a factor at age 40.

Come on, JK.

You left out the part that Ginobili got the offensive rebound off the Rudy Gay miss extend the possession before he hit the game and point spread winning three(3) at the end the contest.

You are slipping a little, Kelly.

First the butt dial and now this?

I am beginning to wonder??

When does a small sample become not so small?

After a hundred(100) plays?

Two hundred(200)?

Three hundred(300)??

To determine if someone has an edge in betting sports, I believe ComptrBob suggested a trial of 10,000 plays or so.

Of course, 20,000 plays would be more conclusive than 10,000, but Bob wanted 10,000 trials to draw any near-certain conclusions.

Bob may have used the term "statistically significant."

Here's the problem with 10,000 plays: At the end of the long trial period, a gambler may have lost his edge in the game or the market. Think Alan Boston. By the time he proves he's a winning player, the game has changed and his edge has disappeared.

That's three(3) plays a day for ten(10) years.

I will be dead by then.
