I can't win

"Man is a gaming animal. He must be always trying to get the better of something or other."
- Charles Lamb, Essays of Elia

With the Indianapolis Colts' loss at the hands of a San Diego Chargers team last week, the last of my sports wagers from my recent Vegas trip has been rendered worthless. I would say that it was fun while it lasted, but in the three weeks since I placed that particular bet, the Colts went 0-2, laying so many turds on the field that you might assume it was natural grass.

In retrospect, I would have been better off donating that $5 to this guy. At least he made me smile.
