Looks like Hellmuth is close again.

poker shouldn't be on tv. making characters out of a "problem" is stupid. gambling is a luxury and dumb and any 'skill' we decide exists out of it is just fleeting bullshit misguided avoidance of ACTUAL REALITY WE ALL FACE.

Phil finished 2nd again. The winner was Eric Rodawig.

Well you can tell the execs at ESPN and whoever the hell shows the WPT and see if they will take it off the air. Until then it will probably remain on TV and since it is I would like to watch the Hellmuth and Matusow types over most players.

You can go back to watching reruns of the "Facts of Life." I will watch poker if it is entertaining.

So are you saying that Poker should be taken off the air..

What about Boxing and Ultimate Fighting? What violence. Maybe you can write to them too,

Don't forget about wrestling or Desperate House Skanks. Now there is a show I would want my daughter to watch.

You can rip on poker on TV but in reality there is far worse.

It's a dull day in here. Somebody has to start something for Christ sakes. Usually the political forum is a good read but nothing today. :shrug:

I can't think of anything. I could write a 3 page diatribe about Viking players, draft, and assumptions. I could write about the resurgence of the Twins or about the highest temperature we have seen in this area for June is 60 with most day highs of 52:scared

He adds a flavor to watching on TV, let's face it.. I do not want to sit and watch a bunch of Juanda types at a table. Great poker players but dull to watch. Give me a table with Phil and Matusow types all day long.
Exactly.

poker is still gay, just saying. phil is a raging homo ...and an ugly one at that. fucking wart on the planet. it's ok though, soon enough trivial people like that won't enter our radar as we focus on providing for ourselves and those we *actually* care about.
