Now I need...41.

Now I need...41.
So what was your biggest single gambling loss, Avante?
Already welching, what a surprise....
Just for you because ya look so ing weird, give me 40 pages and I'm on vacation.
Track has it's big Championships, the NFL/NCAA is starting back up, I need to get back to...
Adian Peterson
Still not sure how a kid from Texas, with that kind of talent ended up at Oklahoma. Yep...curious! At over 6-0 200 pounds with legit 10.4 speed the cat is a load. Yep the total package. If he can stay healthy, no telling what he'll accomplish. A 2000 yd season ....sure!
I keep hearing about who he resembles. No not Eric erson, he's too shifty. Way faster than Calvin Hill or Ottis Anderson. Way faster than Chris Warren or Chuck Muncie. The thing about Peterson is that he doesn't run like a big guy. He makes moves usually reserved for smaller backs like a Barry Sanders or a Marshall Faulk. So I guess the word "unique" would fit and no he doesn't resemble anyone else.
What a shame he had to come along at a time when the Vikings had no QB or stud receivers. If they had a more balanced attack, he'd be even more effective.
I think it's safe to say that Peterson is already one of the top four backs in Vikings history.

8.Ollie Matson...9.6
9.Cyril Pinder...9.4
10.Darrin Nelson..9.4
There was a cat out of Stephen F.Austin named Andy Hopkins (Oilers) who was a 9.2 guy. He played a game or two as did Sultan "10.17" McCullough. Can't really have them there. If Holliday makes it, he's up there, same with Jamaal Charles.
No doubt erson/Dorsett/Sayers had great speed. Just don't have anything concrete as far as their track speed goes.
Then there's Napolean Kaufman, Justin Fargas and Reggie Bush who all ran in that 10.4 world as high schoolers. Peterson had a legit 10.3?
Then there was...
James McAlister a 27-0 footer out of UCLA. Didn't make it. Stone Johnson the Olympian /WR 200 man out of Grambling, died due to some injury. San Jose State's Ken "10.0" Thomas was injured....poof!!! Once beat Clancy Edwards!
Talking about the Chiefs....hmmmm?
Joe Delaney...drown
Derrick Thomas...died
Stone Johnson...died
Mack "The Truck" Lee Hill...died on the operating table
....until you get your own thread to 40 pages, then you'll suddenly need 50...
Nope, just a cool 40.
I need 40
that will do
not 41
not 42
just a cool thread
and 39 won't do
I want 40
and so would you
That sucked!
lol almanac list
Just tell us about your gambling losses, Avante.
It may not be as bad as you are currently indicating.
But then again it might be.
Just think if I responded to our resident moron I'd be over 50 pages,
I mean, is it the implication that you get picks wrong that bothers you so much?
You'd have to admit you blew a pick and lost money because of it. Can your ego not stand it?
I'm interested in hearing about Avante's biggest loss too, tbh
My guess is either picking the Niners in the SB or picking West Virginia to beat K-State, considering how butthurt he was about those
It was Mason!
I had Baltimore and the points and made that clear. I had the Niners winning by three the line was Niners - 3.5I'm interested in hearing about Avante's biggest loss too, tbh
My guess is either picking the Niners in the SB or picking West Virginia to beat K-State, considering how butthurt he was about those
I lost 1500 on the Colts vs Saints, if ya recall the line was Colts -4.5. The most I've won was 3500 when the Giants beat the Pats in 2007, I had the +12.
The consensus

Really? What is it that I hang out?
Because it's lonely hanging out in yours.
What? I asked what it was that I hang out that you were referring to. WHAT do I hang out? That was the question.
Was that your biggest loss?
No one asked about wins.
You idiots are doing really well, now get other morons in here and get to 40 pages...
Chop-chop pendejos!
Aw, SBM is trying to help out his butthurt buddy.
That's cute.
Avante is well on his way to 100k posts!
His prostate needs more massaging from you.
chop chop, butt searching cop
It is gonna take a little more imagination and some other idiots are gonna have to ride to the rescue...
C'mon, gots, cucks, s, & switch-hitters - is this all you got? Surely all this emo- gotry-cuck ery- can crank something other than this regurgitated quasi-tough- s talk....
You never finished your story of how you became enlightened.
I need 40
When I need your...DUH!!!!!..the most you let me down.
