I love it when I go in a gas station in rural NC and some 20 year old women with 4 kids decides to drop $20 on scratch offs, proceeds to scratch off every card at the counter with at least 3 customers behind in line. She then wins a total of $10 and yells at her kids to grab her a pack of Bud Light. Meanwhile I'm just in line because the station doesn't take cards and I just want to get petrol. Of course she doesn't apologise, instead she lights up a cig the moment she leaves the store walking by the pumps, kids in tow.

 

To be fair, she'd probably buy Cowboys, Skins or Stiller scratch offs since her grandpappy was a fan.

I had been hoping we'd roll one out since SC has had one. I have some of my non-winning tickets from SC pinned to a bulletin board at work as kind of a decoration. Thinking about collecting all of the NFL tickets from various states.

It looks like, in addition to the normal money winnings, they are doing some sort of second chance drawing for 20 years of season tickets and some other single game tickets.

If the seats are decent, I might rather have the 20 years of season tickets than the top money prize.

You're either European or a car enthusiast. Or both.

    • If his seat was hot enough for him to be fired 6 games in then you should've just fired him when you made the decision to draft a QB #1 overall. I don't think you go from "this is definitely our guy" to "you're fired in 6 games". Seems like there would be had to have been doubts going in and that's not a recipe for success for a rookie QB.
    • I like to use the analogy that a high draft pick QB is like a new supercar. Great to have one except too often, one forgets that they are high maintenance. A bad team secures their car under a cheap tent, puts regular gas in the tank, services it at Pep Boys, and then blames the car for not working properly and proceeds to get another one.  At the least, Ward getting sacked 25 times already is a massive red flag. If you can't protect your rookie QB, you do not put him out there. Otherwise, it's taking your supercar and immediately spinning it right into a tree. A few survive that rough of a start. Most do not.
    • I don't think there's any one size fits all answer. I think you play the rookie when A) you think he's ready and B) you think there's a reasonable expectation that the overall situation provides him an opportunity to be successful, not necessarily in terms of wins and losses but just in terms of giving him a fighting chance with surrounding talent. If you rush either one it's probably not gonna be pretty.
