Bigs, I was going to congratulate you on the great call in the 8th at Tampa (Plain Brown Bag), but that would have been a big waste of time, wouldn't it Good for you!!

Another well wisher here. Great job Mr B. Stick a little aside for your kids college education and get the results framed to hang on your wall.

Thanks again to everyone and your well wishes.

A ton of luck, the handicapping was shaky at best. Yes, the money will go to good use. First on the list is to pay off my wife's student loans. Kid's college is taken care of thanks to the wonderful pre-paid college program in the great state of Florida. There may be a little bit left over for me...

Beers on me in Saratoga!!
