NFL 2017 Week 13 Recap

Before the cocaine-fuelled discotheques of the 1970s ensured that Westerners would only be looking out for themselves for the next 50 (and counting) years, people actually had a genuine urge to give to one another. Neighbors looked out for those who lived near them, borrowing a cup of sugar was commonplace and a welcome distraction from the monotonous hell of pre-cell phone life. People talked to one another, shared with one another, and gave to one another out of the goodness of their hearts. Then 8 balls and ABBA changed all of that and crushed any lingering Flower Power from the decade before.

You see, it’s very hard to care about others when extremely high on hard drugs and running around a dark room with thumping music and flashing lights, trying to meet ladies to “score” with. It’s an electronic war zone that can leave you disoriented, dishevelled, and frantic to not be alone when the lights come up. Ultimately, you’re only focused on one thing and you’ll pretty much push your mother to the ground to be the first in line to buy a young Disco Queen a drink. This was the prevailing attitude of the mid to late 1970s and it had a fundamental impact on everyone living in the United States which can still be felt today.

The continued excesses of the 1980s ensured the Me Decade killed off any remaining spirit of giving that was left in humans, and Trickle-Down Economics became our mantra…”those in need can have the crumbs that fall from our table – everyone eats!“. Peasants of America were now expected to try to feed off of the clingy meat in our discarded lobster shells like cheapskates try to get paid by snapping up free SIN NFL gambling picks, with both groups of people seeming to be destined for a life of misery and heartache. It’s sad but true – we just stopped caring about other people.

However, that is rather a bleak outlook to take on western culture and there are still some out there who “live to give”. An immediate example coming to mind is The Sports Information Network, who gave out lobsters to all of their friends this past weekend with reckless abandon. Lots and lots of beautiful, butter-soaked lobsters. Our paid subscribers feasted on a props record that was 11% higher than the usual target winning percentage of 55% and now their chins are glistening with salty butter and delicious but reasonably-priced white wine. (At 67% winning percentage or lower always spend more on the lobster and less on the wine.)

Those who refused to buy NFL betting tips online hovered around the table, looking upwards through eyes filled with jealousy and anticipation…waiting for anything to fall down that they could ram into their dry, dirty mouths. Hoping that a chunk of succulent lobster meat would fall from a SIN member’s plate and roll close enough to them that they could devour it quickly before the others scurried over to pounce on the free gift from the heavens above. It is a sad Trickle Down Life for those underneath the table, but it is a life they ultimately chose, so do not shed a single tear for them. They are where they want to be.

So, where do you want to be? Do you want to sit down at the seaside spread and dine on fine crustaceans with those who learned the best way to make profits getting down on sports is to purchase from us? Or do you want to keep darting around under the table waiting for crumbs to fall from the mouths of others? Our members get paid. We’re all eating lobster. $39 buys a seat at the table for one week. Come feast with us.

To reiterate, anything over 55% in this profession is a gift. A beautiful gift straight from the heavens to be enjoyed frivolously, but always appreciated. Every dollar earned over 55% is lobster money, baby. Sweet, sweet lobster money. Here’s how we strapped on our bibs last weekend…

So there you have it. SIN literally gave away lobsters this past week and our members are well-fed and contented. Ever-so-slightly nauseous from the overload of butter and spirits, but contented all the same. One click below will get you a seat at the table with us for next week.

Make sure to watch The Lobster” starring Colin Farrell, currently streaming on Netflix. It’s a very dark comedy so those with a twisted sense of humor will enjoy. It hit close to home for obvious reasons.
