Fare Thee Well, NFL & Your *#@%ing Replacement Refs.

I'd already decided to hang up my NFL handicapping cleats for the season and only do NCAA football -- I don't have time to do both, and then SEA goes and scores a 24 yard touchdown with no time remaining to make me a small loser on the NFL season instead of small winner...talk about a sign. Sheesh. Not a lucky weekend, not at all. So yeah, this weekend just seemed so random to me (I was still leaning on last year's stats, normally I start using current year stats only beginning in week 4) -- and usually I'm fine with that early in the season, as my numbers get stronger as the year progresses. But I literally don't have time to play enough poker and spend time with the family at the rate I'm going. I also started playing disc golf this year, and I'm addicted to it, so I'm picking the healthy hobby over the stress of NFL capping. I may come back to it at some point in the future, I don't know. It's been fun, and profitable (though not as profitable as poker), but I'm enjoying the NCAA more, so... If you're used to me only as an NFL guy check out my NCAA stuff. I was a loser on the season last year in NCAA (had a bad stretch of luck for a few weeks that killed my season), so we'll see how it goes this season. If I hit a real bad week in NCAA and drop into the negative I may also just call it a year there.
