My dad does it with the Pats. Or did, during the Brady era. Won money on at least one of the Giants SBs. Didn't make him feel better.

Does anyone else hedge bet for big games? The bigger the game, the more I want it, the more I bet the opposite way. Is that just me?
Never before the game. But sometimes I buy disaster insurance when my team is ahead in a big game or series. Like when the Celtics got up by 10-12 in the Miami games the odds would usually go to around +2000 or so and I would buy the disaster comeback insurance for a few bucks. Time for that was after 3-1 when Leafs to win series was +900.

Andrew Brewer, a former Lears assistant coach, said to a reporter from The Athletic: “Again, hey, maybe these are just stories that we make up as teams — the whole world’s against you — but that’s kind of the feeling there. The whole city is against you. When you go into Boston you feel like everybody in Boston hates you.”

We do.

Pastrnak scores. Geekie scores. Bruins play to win rather than playing not to lose.

Bruins win.

Love the move by Monty.

If Samsonov starts and loses that is basically eleventy billion times worse than what Monty did last year. And that was so so bad.

I always do this (and hope I lose the bet). I took Toronto to win the series before game 6 (+380).

I have to get up at 5am tomorrow. I won't be able to sleep knowing the game is going on but I don't think I will be able to sleep after the adrenaline rush once it's over. Fuck it. I'm all in. I'll sleep when I'm dead.

I hope they come out hitting. The Leaf's PP is so anemic, I'd take a few PIMs to set the tone. Be nice if we got a few calls too for once.

Uh, what hospital are you working at tomorrow? Asking for a friend.

Before game 1 Kamilla Kowal posted a pro Maple Leafs Instagram story. I responded in a pro Bruins way that got her to laugh.

I've heard grief is nature's most powerful aphrodisiac.

Dear Bruins, clearly it's about to happen for me and Bonnie McMurray. Beat the Leafs, make her sad, and help get me to the finish line!
BONNIE McMURRAY?!?!?!

I hope you win The Battle for Bonnie McMurray. But your odds might be even lower than the Maple Leafs' odds of wining this game.

Shit... this is on regular ABC... I might just have to sign up for youtubeTV to avoid the insane "stream" delay that seems to happen when getting from "sources"

Just heard about Woll, hope that lights a fire under the B's to throw everything at the net.

I've got a flight at 7:45 tomorrow but I've got a 10%'er poured with a few of his friends ready behind him.

Let's Fucking Go!!!!
