Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random

Can we adjust that "overrated" to "three day weekends that include the Monday"? Because I love the Fri-Sun where on Saturday you think its Sunday and then you're like OHHHHHHH SHIIIIIIIT!!! when you realize its not.

Re: World Cup 2018 Qualification

They're missing Matarrita too and he seems to drive some of their offense so maybe its not great. I don't know, I just used to really like betting on the other side when my team was a big favorite.
