“The fact that I am batting .250 after the first round is really not surprising. I tend to bet with my heart and not my head.
Luckily I went with my head by taking Vegas to beat the Wild in game 7. I desperately needed that win. Dusty Pylon is my only steady source of income so if I lose this gig I am fucked.
Embed from Getty ImagesI cannot fathom what took place in the Leafs and Canadiens series. I thought Montreal was dead in the water. It’s bets like these that make me wonder if the universe is against me. I am definitely putting this loss on Mitch Marner’s shoulders. He was terrible all series. He was so timid out there at times, and if he does not have time and space his ability to do anything is diminished. He fights through nothing. There is zero sandpaper to his game which does not translate well to playoff hockey. This is on you Mitch. I’ll be happy to accept a Venmo if you happen to come across this. Matthews gets a bit of a pass. From what I saw the Canadiens gave him very little time and space to get any shots off. He did at least dish the puck a bit, giving teammates solid looks. I was hoping Spezza would get to enjoy a long playoff run. He had a hell of a series.
After round one pretty much every team I was cheering for got eliminated. I will likely be loading up Avalanche picks going forward. Will also likely hammer the under a fair bit in any game involving the Islanders.”
-Wild Bill
Okay let me get this straight. This is on Marner’s shoulders because he struggled when he had no time and space, yet you’re giving Matthews a pass because the Habs gave him no time and space to get shots off? No shit it feels like the universe is against you with logic like that. That doesn’t even make sense. This again feels to me like you are shitting on the Canadian kid just like you did with Crosby. Why don’t you pack your bags and move already. We don’t want you here. Have I mentioned that Wild Bill is an anti-vaxxer?
You slightly redeemed yourself by saying you will be betting on Colorado going forward. Don’t worry I won’t be firing you anytime soon. I enjoy making fun of you too much. I know that without this job you would be fucked for money. Literally.
