So, who watches college football?
« on: October 26, 2007, 08:03:18 AM »
Who watched that Tech - BC game?

Who wants to help me kill myself?
I fall and I leap and
I'm freaking out
Nowhere near my place and I
Know that they've seen me now

My team has one a game this year.

If you're down for a game of American Roulette, I'll provide the firearm.

That's like Russian Roulette but we can afford to put a bullet in every chamber. Also it's a lot more realistic to the way our gambling system works.

Well my teams are Michigan and Florida St so my season was basically over after week 1.   :'(

Guys, I don't think you understand.

BC was number 2.

There was no score in the first quarter, then we scored in the second, then we led all game until there was less than 40 seconds left.

It would have been infinitely less painful if we'd just gotten our ass kicked from the beginning. 

Le sigh.

Also I think American Roulette would be funnier if instead of a six shooter it was a big old double barrelled shotgun with a shell in one chamber.  That way there's still an element of chance and it's way more entertaining for the other players!

Until their turn.

BC was number 2.

And with the way things have gone for #2s this year that should have been your first clue that they'd lose.  ;)

Edit - Bah! My mistake. I hadn't checked the scores and thought you meant that Boston College had lost.

argh i missed the game (thursday night, honestly). tech was bc's last real competition, too. i think they play kentucky soon...but that's it. :(

i still think LSU should be in the top two. they were doing so well at the beginning of the season and ohio state has a lame schedule this year. argh!
love, fish

Unless you've got some kind of gambling shotgun, it's pretty easy to tell which barrel it's coming out of. Either you'd know which barrel you put it into, or you'd see which barrel is about to figure with the selector. So we'd need a modified "american roulette" gun.

I'll get on it.
