    TGS Guest Post: It’s time for a ban on assault rifles

    The military writing style has taught me to state the “Bottom Line Upfront”. In this case, the bottom line is that assault rifles exist for one reason, they were created to kill people. From their high rate of fire and large capacity magazines to their ease to conceal or covertly carry; their design and function […]

    The Super Bowl is the worst. We went 6-3 in college basketball picks ATS and managed to lose $330 because of Super Bowl prop betting. That’s including a win on the under 2:15 National Anthem length. So we’re going all college basketball this week. Prepare to lose your mortgage payment at the hands of the […]

    Friday Degenerate Board – 2/3/17

    I can’t hide anymore. After the last week of gambling, where we took a sizeable hit, I fled the country. I contemplated the meaning of life, the disappointment I put my fellow degenerates through, and if this column should even continue. Who am I kidding?

    I never tire of winning a couple hundred dollars a week. Plus I’m leaving for my honeymoon next week, and I could use the extra cash. Hopefully, we can continue this trend into the new year because 2017 is already awesome. It’s time to really start switching to basketball and say goodbye to football which […]

    Well, we put out $300 in futures last week, so we’re down $165 on the past week. Hopefully one of those three teams wins the NHL Eastern Conference and we can flip that result. Last week was the first week we really couldn’t find the right underdogs to ride, but luckily the parlay came through. […]

    We’re getting to the scary point in the season where I’m almost convincing myself to actually put money on my bets. We hauled in another $317.13 last week bringing our five week profits to $2,102.13. That’s a cool 42% ROI since we began this venture together. We were incredibly close to raking in another $1k […]
