Put yer nothin' where yer mouth is...

Special K: This year I picked the winners of the first 10 NFL playoff games right, and the last 3 wrong. 

b1-66er: That's funny...
... That could also be the way to lose A LOT of money.

K: True, I'm glad there was none involved. 

Chief'd

b1-66er: (I just looked at the Superbowl score...
... Looks like it was a pretty good game.)

Special K: Very entertaining, until a weird penalty with 90 seconds left basically decided the game. 

b1: Weirdo.

K: Very good halftime. 

b1: What was the penalty?
(I mean, I could read about it...
... But with all things Sport, I prefer K-vu.)
Of what type?
(And what was the result of the penalty?)

K: Defensive holding on Philly. 
It was an iffy call. 
Should not have been called in a tie Super Bowl game with <2:00 left. 
It gave KC a first down around the 15 yard line. Which basically clinched the game for them. 
They probably would have won without it, but much lower likelihood. 

b1: Great analysis. Thank you.
I like the probabilistic slicing there.

K: Yes sir. 

b1: Does it feel like a ref on the take?

K: I don't think so. More likely bad reffing. 

b1: In South American or European futball, that'd get a contract put on you.
Reffy wouldn't make it to Saturday.
That does mean Mister Goodman won his bet, though.
Major Math's Betting Consortium made US$2400.

K: Damar Hamlin (the player whose heart stopped during Monday Night Football last month) came out on the field pregame. 

b1: WHOA!
That'll get you an automatic standing ovation.

K: Yeah.

Trotting along the wall

b1-66er: ¡El Paso!
<Wombo>

Tequilo: Ha! My dog needs to up his skills

b1: Maybe shaving and tattooing it would help?

T: Dogs in El Paso do seem to fare better than cats near Juarez prisons
