There are kicks in the nuts and then there is the story about how a gambler tested the gambling gods this weekend by dropping a $35,000 in-game bet on the Falcons at -3333 to win a fast $1,050 at BetMGM. The story goes that the gambler made the massive bet with seven minutes to play and the Falcons holding a 39-24 lead.

Let me do the quick math for you: that’s a 15-point lead…for the Falcons. The Cowboys got the ball with 7:57 on the clock and went 10 plays in 3:00 for a touchdown. 39-30 Falcons with 4:57 to play. Not the end of the world, but not ideal for the gambler or the Falcons. History tells us Dan Quinn knows how to blow a historic lead — 28-3 in a Super Bowl ring a bell?

This just makes me smile.

Anyone willing to risk $35K to win $1,050 deserves to lose it, no matter how strongly the odds were in his favor.

Dude is probably a professional gambler and sits in the casino and waits just for those opportunities to balance out his week. He is going to have to win a lot to make that one up.
