Sportsbook Review

Mean Green 93-98 · July 9, 2009

Arky State is supposed to be in the running every year. I'll believe it when I see it.

And predicting a winless season for the Mean Green? If that happens . . . well, it just had better not happen.

You know what really makes those 0-fers and 1-XX seasons painful? When you are another team's only win.

Most publications...MOST...don't have a damn clue about the Belt...not than I am clamoring that they should...it is a minor conference, but I don't put anything into 99% of "predictions" by publications and websites

So true, there are very few that you can listen to when talking about the belt.

I dunno, I was just going from what I remember the past few years. I must be getting my predictions from the Jonesboro Sun.

Tasty.. Have you considered a line of t-shirts with the "GOOD THINGS" theme? I mean, you might be able to do better than break even on them. YOU MIGHT EVEN MAKE MONEY!!

Make em sleeveless and call the line "Reality Beaters."

That's actually a pretty damn clever idea. KRAM, call me and let's make a million bucks.

Once we've exhausted the "Good Things" concept, we can branch out into other reality beating ideas. "She says she loves me, I'm sure it's my kid!" "Motorcycle helmets aren't good for anything but screwing up my hair!" "I'll only sell meth until my Camaro is paid for, then I'll totally quit!"
