Why did you leave out Imperioli's role in "Goodfelllas" (Spyder).
Because EVERYONE knows him for that role....I was picking the esoteric ones.


Ya know......I'm an esoteric kinda guy.

Dixie....you bet GB?

That's funny, as I made my first football bet in over a year....and it was on GB. A friend of mine told me to bet them.

I am still talking to him.......I'm loyal.

I don't root against, by the way, and you know I'm just having fun.

That might have been the first OTB in the city to get a live video feed. I spent a lot of time there when I first moved to NY.

I thought they were making the playoffs, and I cannot BELIEVE they didnt cover after dominating ****ty Pittsburgh. Typical NFL cover, Browns control the entire game just to chuck it in the 4th quarter and blow the spread. If I still bet football I would probably be through the roof right now. However, Ive handed over some very FAT envelopes the last few weeks and have put the breaks on all pro football plays until further notice.

How about those Bucks though? Tressel, best coach in college football, Troy Smith, absolute freak, the freshman back is going to be a stud, Pittman already is a stud. Unreal core of recievers for college, just a fantastic football team. Whoever hooks them in the National Championship better be ready to get a serious ass kicking

Since my scarlet knights spit the bit, i guess i'll back OSU for you. i think there should be a rematch w/ michigan- they're clearly the 2 best teams in the country.

I used to work right down the block and played the early double there almost every day. We had a crew of "working" degenerates! What a place.
