So, if my math is correct, I won $1155 back of the $1436 I put in (I'm including the 8:1 Packers bet I made earlier). That's a net loss of $281 on this Super Bowl. Yup, that's how huge hotels in Vegas are built. I hope I added a little bit more enjoyment to the game for some of you. I still can't believe only two field goals were made! One more and I turn a profit of $139, damn it.

The why not bets got ya.
You see the odds and say "Well, what they hey, it's only 10 bucks (or so)."

It's good if you win, but Vegas knows what they're doing.

Not bad results, to be honest, considering you were just doing it more for fun.

How is it the Cowboys trophy then?

Well that's a given, but I wasn't sure that was what was going on here.

The Packers trophy because they won it? Ok.
The Packers trophy because it's the Lombardi? Ok.
The Steelers tropy because they have the most? Not as strong a case, but better then it being the Cowboys.

When Jerry Jones goes, maybe they will get somewhere again, until then... you will be disappointed.

I wish the Steelers would have beat the Eagles in the superbowl.

Jerry would have died before halftime and Goodell would have died handing the trophy to Roethlisberger.
