I only look forward to a few things on Christmas these days- (1) the variety of sports, including an NFL game this year and (2) the time with family. The past couple Christmases, including the one that hasn't occurred just yet, seem void of something. Maybe it's the being single thing, maybe it's the getting older thing. I just don't give as much of a shit as I used to, not even close. Getting gifts has been overshadowed by the giving of gifts in terms of where I get the most joy. I suppose I shouldn't dwell on this blah feel that I get around this time of the year and just enjoy the "presence" of people around me -- terrible pun.
I suppose that's what I'll try doing....that and some Christmas cocktails.
NFL bets...streaking right now with totals (8 in a row), overall of 37-26, including 4-0 in week 15.
Thursday bet: Pitt/Car Under (37-38): Not sure what I'll get it at. I'm not worried about Troy being gone for Pitt. Car can run the ball, but that's where Pitt's strength (about 65 yards a game allowed a game) exists. I expect Pitt to run the ball a lot as well (35-40 times). Expecting a 24-7ish type of score.
Merry Christmas to my friends and family who read this, all 5 of you. If you're reading this- buy me something good because I'm sure I did the same for you.
