Little Big Planet

    November 10th, 2008 Posted in Idle Commentary

    It’s not quite Thanksgiving yet, but I want to jump the gun a bit and say what I am thankful for.

    Thank you, Northwestern, for being in the Big 10 but not being very good at football.

    Thank you, Ohio State, for not being very good either… but at least being… okay.

    Thank you, Las Vegas sports books, for setting a bad line.

    Thank you, Lukas, for pointing that out to me… even though you didn’t have the balls to actually bet it yourself.

    Thank you, Fates, for not smiting me in vengeance for betting against my alma mater.

    And thank you, Walmart, for offering a randomly good deal on a product that is still over-priced.

    Anyways, thanks guys for the free PS3, Little Big Planet, and Gears of War 2.

      A) Obviously not the books fault that people were still betting on NU (always a bad choice, come on people)

      B) Working 80 hours this week and not having an online account != ‘not having the balls’ to bet, big words for someone that clearly has very little knowledge of sports betting.

      geez, somebody sounds like they are taking this personal…

      also, what kind of person works 80 hours per week that isn’t a lawyer, doctor, or programmer with EA?

    4. Corey

    5. lukas

    8. Corey

      man, remember when Los got super pissed at his parking tickets and walked the 8 miles from downtown to our apt in the middle of the winter? what an awesome guy.

      true conversation i’m having on the phone right now

      Karen: don’t be so touchy, don’t be a JIM

      ouch dude, word spreads fast.

    11. wyvern

      wow, and we haven’t even brought up Kill Stealing yet

      Jim and Jimmy should hang out, they’d be good friends.

      Or mortal enemies.

    12. Jim
