I just Recieved this Letter From Bodog.

Dear MoFo_69,

How it Works

The top 30% of finishers in each qualifying tournament will earn points based on their finish. These points will be used to rank players over 4 months of qualifying. At the end of the qualifying series, the top 18 players on the Tournament Leader Board will play in the Final Tournament on Tuesday, June 10th, 2008 with the first place finisher winning a $12,000 WSOP* prize package!

The Tournament Leader Board will be available at http://www.bodoglife.com/promotions/poker/blogger-tournament/ throughout the course of the Bodog Poker Blogger Tournament Series. It will provide the point totals for every player that has played in the qualifying tournaments. The top 30% of players in each tournament will receive points according to finish which at the end of the qualifying tournaments will ultimately determine who will move on to the Final Event. The top 18 players on the TLB at the end of the qualifiers will earn their way to the Final Event.

How To Register
To register for the Bodog Poker Blogger Tournament Series, poker bloggers must first go to http://www.bodoglife.com/promotions/poker/blogger-tournament/ and sign in with their Bodog account information in the upper right hand corner. Once this is completed, they then must click on “REGISTER NOW” to register themselves into the tournament series. Bloggers will each have to do this once in order to play in the series. Once this is done, they then need to find the “Online Poker Blogger Tournament” in the software and register as they normally would each and every week.

Wow that is all I can say. A seat in the WSOP. Fuck Yeah I am in. I Played in 2005 and Donked out after losing focus for 5 min so Now I will have to Win this so I can make a Triumphant Return and Conquer the ME.

Thanks to smokkee who started this up with Bodog we now have a reason to play there. Now if they would only fix the software.

Peace

A Giant Upset

Filed under Giants, Patriots, Upset, superbowl

I think that the stock for for depression medication might be going thru the roof today. I Know I am depressed I mean who wouldn’t be, We watched the Best team I have ever seen go 18-0 and Lose the Superbowl in stunning fashion.

You won’t even get me to bitch about a few calls or non calls by the Refs. BWOP made that comment on the game.

“7:09pm EST: OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD. Toomer caught that? No offensive pass interference? Wow.

“10:06pm EST: The New York Giants are your Super BLOW XLII CHAMPIONS.

Just kill me and fuck my dead body.”

So go check out BWOP.

I would like to hear an explanation as to why this crap happened. Brandon Merriweather falling on the ball and be touched by a Giant only to have them roll him over and take the ball away? WTF is up with that.

The Giants DESERVED TO WIN. They played Better than the Patriots did when it counted and thats all that really needs to be said. The Catch David Tyree made was amazing. I can’t figure out how he held onto it. Asante Samuels couldn’t neither could Rodney Harrison.

The Patriots had this game in their hands and for the first time this year they couldn’t make the play they needed to make.

The worst part is now we get to listen to NEW YORKERS who are always classy and Quiet when their teams win. Hope they feel better now that one of their teams won. Which is more than I can say for Dolphins fans and your gay bunch of Players from 72′.

This Asswipe Dolphins fan has this to say.

Once the game ended, it didn’t take much time for the sound of screaming and honking cars to drift through my window. And then it got louder and louder. Now, despite the fact that I’m prone to vicious streaks of misanthropy and often like to revel in my status as an outsider, I do enjoy observing the occasional act of communal celebration. So I put on my jacket and went for a short walk.
I remember the celebrating which happened on these very same blocks back when the Yankees won their World Serieses. I also remember the good-humored mayhem after Aaron Boone hit his home run in 2003.

Tonight was that times ten. Men, women, and children carousing in the streets. Some people running shirtless down the sidewalk, others running drunkenly in front of moving cars. One guy was already selling Giants Super Bowl Champions t-shirts on the street. But my favorite moment which I will always cherish from Super Bowl XLII: Just as I passed a deli, the owner came running to the sidewalk in a frenzy, holding tallboys of Bud in his hands, and yelling “Free Beer! Free Beer!” So I took one, thanked him, and kept walking. About a block later, I thought to myself that I hope he really was the owner of that deli.

Atleast the Patriots will make the Playoffs next year and the Dolphins won’t right? or is there something to that streak of Super Bowl Losers not making the playoffs the following year.

At least they are better than Eagles Fans right? Wait they now are going to investigate that superbowl also. Arlen Sphincter wants a congressional hearing? are you fucking kidding me?


Tonight is the Math which i won’t be playing since I do not like 6 max. Hope everyone that plays has a great time.

Congrats to the Giants and their fans. Enjoy it cause your team earned it.
Now I am going to go Kick my dog named Brady.

Peace
DROP THE HAMMER
