To elaborate, I belong to a website where you get "points" for clicking on the betting forums daily. 6 pts/day. You can then take the points and bet them in the website's "casino".

I just had a parlay on MLB - Oakland and LA Angels. Bet 5 pts to win 26 pts. The Angels came through and won their game 2-0. Oakland was ahead 6-3 going into the bottom of the ninth. I'm starting to count my windfall. Tori "effing" Hunter comes up and smacks a 3 run walk-off home run. Poof! I lose 5 pts instead of winning 26. Bad beats are so common in gambling.... A lot more common than the reverse (seems like)....

I've got the Texan -2.5 for 8 pts (to win 7.27 pts) tonight. As Keith mentioned, I'm betting on Yates and Keenum to march the ball down the field like they've done so far...

FYI, current line on the Texans 1st game against SD is Texans by 3.

Texans rush their way down the field for the game's first score. Nice running by D Johnson and C Wood. Keenum had a couple of completed passes.

Texans 7, Cowboys 0

6:37 left in the first quarter.

Lechler is out of control.

Is Andrew Gardner seriously being considered for a job in the NFL? As a player, I mean?

Ya, I'm not a fan, either...

Texans pinned in at their own 2 with 13:49 left in the half.

I know Gary's going to go with Karim for his experience, but I'd sure favor Wood over him. He's seems to have another gear that Karim doesn't have.

Cowboys put together a drive and get a FG, 38-yarder with 5:04 left in the half.
