That was a good episode, however my favorite gambling episode was Lisa the greek in season four. She was killing it lol. My favorite quote was when she was giving the report in class.
"The happiest day of my life was three Sundays ago. I was sitting on my
daddy's knee when the Saints, who were four-and-a-half point favorites,
but only up by three, kicked a meaningless field goal at the last second
to cover the spread."


:lol:

all the simpsons up to season 7 and family guys precancellation are great episodes

FYP

Personally my favorite is:

The only monster here is the gambling monster that has enslaved your mother! I call him Gamblor, and it's time to snatch your mother from his neon claws!



or the classic:


TV: So call me now! $5 for the first minute, $2 for each additional minute!
Homer: [dials the number]
Voice: You... have reached... the Coach's... Hot-...
Homer: Line.
Voice: Line.
Homer: Yeah, lay it on me, Coach.
Voice: In the game... of... Mi... am... i...
Homer: Mm hm.
Voice: Versus Cin...
Homer: Cincinnati.
Voice: cin...
Homer: Cincinnati.
Voice: nat...
Homer: Cincinnati.
Voice: i...
Homer: Come on, come on, don't you realize this is costing me money!
Voice: We must consider... many... things.... The wind...
Homer: D'oh, not the wind!
Voice: Is blowing out of the....west.
Homer: Oow...
Voice: At five...
Homer: Miles per hour!!!
Voice: knots...
Homer: D'oh, this is ridiculous!

and later that same episode:

Smooth Jimmy Apollo: [explaining his poor prediction]
Well, folks, when you're right 52% of the time, you're wrong 48%
of the time.
Homer: Why didn't you say that before!!

Nurse: Doctor, you can't perform surgery in the dark!
Hibbert: That sounds like a wager to me.
Krusty: (on the operating table) I'll take a piece of that.

If you watch the Black Donnellys you will also see that there is a whole thing going on about gambling. They killed a bookie and took his phone, now they are trying to set up their own shop and take the bets. Pretty interesting series.

Yeah, that bookie subplot was good stuff.

Sucks that it was canceled...I actually thought the series was pretty fuckin entertaining. Stupid NBC.

Oh well, at least there's still Heroes.
