HOW TO ACTUALLY PLAY CRAPS
1. Drink heavily.
2. Put your money on the pass line.
3. If the shooter doesn't roll a 7, put more money out and say "come line"
4. If the shooter doesn't roll a 7, put even more money out and say "odds" and "come line"
5. Repeat 3 & 4 until the shooter rolls a 7
At every stage, yell and scream and be fun. The quiet sober guy never wins at craps.

Sports fandom is not rational.
I'm a huge Redskins and Ravens fan. Out of every sports, these are my two favorite teams. The Washington Wizards have sucked for so long and been so poorly managed that I tried to become an OKC fan a while back....and for some reason I just couldn't do it. I wanted to like them, but I just ended up not caring.
I mean, the entire "I was born within these imaginary lines, so I root for this team" concept isn't rational to begin with. You just end up liking whomever you end up liking and go with it imo.
Only people that don't count are those who root for all the common bandwagon teams, such as someone who is a fan of the Lakers, Yankees, Cowboys, and Duke all at once. Those guys suck the biggest bag of dicks in the history of bags of dicks.

digi,
I was in Vegas earlier this week
Whatever you do, don't make ******ed bets like this one
Still came out +units on sportsbetting thanks to going 5 for 5 on sunday (doubled up on the U at halftime) then reading the post bracket dropping thread and loading up on St Mary's rd 1, MSU, VCU, Davidson, and StLU (lost LIU and lol Montana)
Sadly I got stacked 4 times in approximately 4 hours of 2/5 and 1/2 without winning a single hand at showdown all trip and had -$1000 45 minute craps session at casino royale to put me down down down for the trip overall :-/

sigh you guys, and no, triumph, tornado gambit was never gonna happen
if you want a more serious post, it's that my point was never that the storm would never damage anything. it's just that it's being crazy exaggerated by the media and it drives me nuts. "60 million in path of killer storm" and whatnot...the amount of media freakout over a post-tropical storm hitting New York is almost more than when a Cat-5 was barreling down on New Orleans. Stuff will flood, stuff will break. A few people will sadly die. It's unfortunate. But you aren't going to have to rebuild your whole city. Hopefully all of you stay safe.

in my world the media's coverage is proportional to the strength of the storm and provides actual useful info rather than making news out of false message board reports, Bob in AC getting blown against the side of a storefront to prove that there's wind, and shirtless guys running down the street with a horse head mask on
