Overheard at 4:00 am the other night in the x bedroom.

Cindigo(sitting bolt upright in bed): "I'm afraid of what the bedroom is doing to the bedroom."
X: "Did you say you're afraid of what the bedroom is doing to the bedroom?"
Cindigo : "Yes."
X: "Are you having a dream?"
Cindigo (irritated): "No, I'm not dreaming, I'm trying to tell you something..."
[long pause]
Cindigo : "I thinks there are bugs in here."
X: "Bugs?"
[longer pause]
Cindigo : "I think I might have been dreaming."

There are still four weeks left, but it looks like this football season will be the worst in history for the sportsbooks. The public is absolutely killing them and many of the poorly funded offshore books will shut down without being able to pay off customers. Here's a good example from a watchdog site I frequent:
BigDaveSports(SBR rating D+) Closes. BigDave’s hosting company, SportsCallCenter F.A. tells SBR that Dave, the owner of the book, picked up his computer and left yesterday after saying "I can’t take this anymore". SBR is attempting to contact Dave to discuss player balances.
Funny stuff. Maybe I'm too cynical, but I think if you deposit money with a sportsbook named "BigDaveSports" you may deserve what you get.
