  1. houston isnt very good. Best win this year is @ home vs buffalo where they had to make a 2h comeback and Manuel was still starting.Other wins are vs Oak and Wash, two of the worst teams in the nfl

     

    lost vs the three decent teams they played, NYG, IND and DAL

     

     

    Don't disagree Houston is no world beater. But look at the mutts Pitt has played. Houston has played FAR BETTER competition .

     

    They split with Cleveland winning a nailbiter 30-27 and getting crushed 31-10

    Never competitive in 26-6 lost to ravens

    Lost AT HOME to Bucs

    Beat Jags 17-9 ( backdoor cover if I recall correctly)

    One respectable outing was a 37-19 win at carolina.

     

    Look at first six games and the tougher group can't even be argued.

     

    3-3 Pitt first six games ..

    Baltimore

    Clev

    Clev

    Jags

    Carolina

    Tampa bay

     

    3-3 Houston first six games

    Oak

    Wash

    Buff

    Indy

    NYG

    Dallas

  2. They are not even a modest threat to America and it's interests. Look to the business world to see if anything is a true threat. Any real or even remote threats the markets react negatively. Look at the stock market it's at record highs. More importantly look a price of oil, oil right now is at the lowest it's been in over two years. This whole ISIS scare is happening where almost 1/2 the oil in the world is located! Give you something to compare it to, when saddam HUSSIEN with an actual military took over Kuwait the price of gas in the US immediately, that week, went up 35% . Saddams army was a threat to the region and therefore to oil producers in the Middle East. ISIS will never be a threat on any meaningful scale. They cause death and destruction in their little corner of the world but they are too radical to get mainstream support and too weak militarily to ever become a real threat to the west. .

  3. Bitcoin

     

     

    I'm still kicking myself because I was so close to buying a lot (about $10,000) at the time (mid 2011) because I had the money and believed in the currency, I just got scared like a little bitch.

    Was a hell of a lesson.

    If you believe in something go after it.

    That is a hell of a lesson bro. June 9th 2011 bitcoin all time high was broken at just under 32 US dollars. Two years later it was over 1300, 10k at that point peaked at well over 400k two years later. I can see why you are kicking yourself INK
  4. This offer is insane. I am going to use it a bunch . Any even causal horse player should sign up on sept 18 and then as long as he wagers 1k in a month come oct 19 th he has a 1000 dollar bankroll for the breeders cup less then 2 weeks later

  5. TJ might be the most legendary of degens. Old story goes that he was once asked what would he do if he won the Main Event' date=' for millions, of course. He said he'd pay back the people he owed. He was asked, what would he do with the rest? He said, the rest would have to wait.[/quote'] I remember reading once a European play originally made that classic statement . I also know Gus Hanson said it once causing a roar of laughter after his million-dollar score . I never heard it attributed to TJ but it certainly applies . Below is an article where it is attributed to another poker player So there you have it, a quick column on nicknames and where they came from. To end, I’ll leave you with a quick interview from Eric Drache, famous professional player and long-time poker room manager. A reporter asked him what he would ever do if he won “The Big One†(The World Series of Poker), to which Drache replied: “I’d pay off some debts.†Then the reporter asked him what he’d do with the rest. His deadpan response was a classic: “They would have to wait.â€
