    Name: Matty
    Age: 33
    Occupation: Content guru
    Where you from: Suburban Chicago
    How long you been w/ the site: Day one
    Favorite movie: Tie between Boogie Nights and L.A. Confidential
    Hobbies: Drinking, watching sports, betting, hanging with my homies.
    First wager: $5 on the Redskins to win Super Bowl XVIII when I was in 5th grade.  I lost but went double or nothing on the Pro Bowl and made my money back!  That's when I knew I had a gambling problem.
    Favorite sport to bet: College Football
    Biggest win: $1000 on my alma mater Syracuse to win the 2003 NCAA basketball championship from a $20 future bet placed before the season started at 50/1 odds.  Thanks Carmelo!
    Worst beat: Putting $10 on Patriots tight end Daniel Graham to score the first touchdown in a Monday Night Football game last December 26th against the Jets while publicly stating I would have bet defensive end Mike Vrabel (who plays offense near the goal line) had his name been on the board.  The game starts and I find out Graham is inactive, then Vrabel goes on to score NOT one but TWO TDs, including the first.  A huge blow to my reputation as a master of first TD betting, but what could I do?
    Favorite sports teams: Chicago Bulls and Chicago Bears
    Closing notes: I love sports, Vegas and writing, so I can't complain!

    Randy(Bear)

    52 to late 90s(depending on night out)

    piston man

    NW IN

    Was at old site, but would get lost at times.

    MASH

    1st actual FB bet around 30 yrs ago: hit a 3 team parlay card. Been cussing ever since.

    NCAA FB, then NFL.

    Hit on Ky when they won NCAA BKB Championship giving 5 and down by 10 at Half. Numbers may be a little off, but it was a sack buster at half.

    Sorry to rehash LY SB, but loss by Sea sucked. Actually biggest was '94 Col vs Mich when the Mongloid QB Kordell Stewart had a career bringing Col back to win 27-26.

    Really only root for team I have money on anymore. Am, but not rabid, ND, Cubs, Bulls and Bears fan.

    Final note: Love betting FB, period. Best time of the year. GLTA.
