Cards hang in there

I've always liked the Meadowlands meet. While some people go out and get trashed on Friday nights, me as a nerd likes to stay in and watch the races from the Meadowlands.

I like that better than going out on a Friday Night Tim. Look at it this way, if you go out you are guranteed to drop 100 bucks, and wake up tired with a hangover.
You can take the same 100 and put in your account, bet the races at the Meadowlands on a Friday night, and perhaps wake up with more money the next morning. And even if you lose the 100 bucks, you won't wake up hungover and tired.
I think that one is a no brainer myself.
The only day I like to have a few beers anymore is Sunday. You have a few(dozen maybe, lol) and watch the football games and racing and baseball, and then at night you eat something and drink some water. Not so bad the next day. YOu can do it at a sports bar, a buddy's house, etc.
I guess I'm a nerd anymore as well.
But I simply can't do late night drinking anymore. The hangover the next day makes it a complete loss of a day. I'm not 21 anymore.
