Same from me...good luck DoubleDown. I hope you win. I procrastinated too long. As I wrote in another post, I finally gave in and tried to buy a couple of tickets, but I was too late. Funny, right now I'm on dialup and I just realized I used it for 8 years before I switched to DSL. I was on LP for several months using a 52K modem. It's really not too bad, but I need high-speed for work because I download hundreds of documents. I hope the new modem I'm getting will resolve the problem. Anyway, I was able to get a dialup connection for a temporary fix, thank goodness. Of course I just had to sign on to LP!! Anyway, what does this have to do with the lottery? I have no idea. Just trying to calm down.  me earlier tonight

SC is doing this silly raffle also. What a great marketing ploy to raise even more money. The odds are still pretty ridiculous, aren't they? The North Carolina Education Lottery - so much a joke that here are their mascots:

But I am playing GA, FL, and SC anyway.. ( SC tix are only $10 each ). Amen bro on the Gaytors. I am a GA DAWG !!!! Heck, South Carolina had the gaytors beat . They were lucky to block the game winning FG against SC , otherwise Michigan would have their rematch.... Michigan was penalized for not playing a game since 11/18... | | |

The Buckeyes definitely deserve the title. Just one game to go! And Michigan did get railed on not being able to play a conference title game. Florida has been skating by all season...and should have been beat by SC. That was gift-wrapped for them. Although I wouldn't want to have to play Michigan again, but they are more of a match than the GAYters. Florida stands NO chance against OSU.
