That site must be like The Onion.

However, I have a friend that bets on NFL games. He swears that the games are fixed and not just the Super Bowl. Every time he has what looks like a winner but turns into a loser he rants and raves that the games are fixed.

Obviously, he loses a lot.

I literally just posted that on a girl's facebook page who STILL insists it's real.  The internet makes me shake my head so much I'm gonna pull something.  We are surrounded by stupid.

If you're going to throw a game, you don't make it THAT obvious.  The line was Denver -2.  A single missed tackle or dropped pass could've accounted for that.

I quoted you... and this is what happened.  Oh my God.  I'm leaving for an island somewhere:

Lindsey Jackson Beam How is it possible that Abraham Lincoln had a "quote" about the Internet which had yet to be invented??

She will probably need to shave her head to get rid of that unsightly singed part that the low flying logic/point left as it whizzed by her (apparently) empty head

BTW, since this is such a "huge" scandal, does she have an explanation as to why it is not plastered all over espn/Sporting News, Sports Illustrated, etc, etc, etc ....

First of all, is that THE Lindsey Jackson, former Lady Vol?  Second, is she a friend of yours, or a friend of a friend?  I just love watching worlds collide on Facebook.  I've gotten into some pretty heated arguments with people I don't even know on a mutual friend's timeline.  Always entertaining.
