Let me tell ya, after a game like last night it feels like you lost *double* your bet and let me tell you why:

When you're winning by 28 (yes I said 28 because I'm including the spread) you're counting your bucks. Even if you try not to count your chickens before they hatch, it's only human nature.

The wager is $1 million but the difference between winning and losing is $2 million. ($2.1 million actually). So that's a helluva gutshot.

There's was another guy that would have won 5 million if Atlanta won.

So Roger Goodell has $1.1 million less money today.

Sucks to be him. During the 3rd quarter I had major regrets about not cashing in my Pats bet (got offered 270 for a bet paying 540) that I placed at the start of the season. The ending was even sweeter.
