Let's say you're some random guy, makes a good living.

Anyone here bet more than 10grand on a game this year? My wife's giving me hell about it but I told her it's not really that uncommon. She thinks it's crazy, even went so far as to say it's like betting you'll win a single hand at blackjack. Right.

My wife would flip out. Hell, I have to make small ATM withdrawals for a month to stockpile for a Vegas trip. No way I could get away with dropping 10K on a bet if she knew about it.

Unless you are just absolutely loaded, which you very well could be

...betting.

Of course, some random guys are degenerate gamblers, but that's another topic.

To most random guys, it's hell to earn 10 grand of disposable cash.

Hence Mr. Random Guy has enough sense to not flush 3 months worth of paid bills down the toilet sweating bullets for 3 hours that stalwart champions like Snead & Lee can cover the spread.

You're usually a pretty rational poster, but if you bet $10K on a football game I wouldn't blame your wife if she divorced you.

...all I want to know, is can I borrow a couple of grand? It's not like you need it or anything.
