It is with great regret that I must announce Gamblor’s imminent demise. I simply don’t have time to keep it up anymore. While Gamblor has ultimately lost money over its career, it’s not much more than a few weekends in Vegas would cost – and has certainly provided a great deal more entertainment value for me. Gamblor is dormant during the playoffs, and I’ll be gone for much of the month of December, so this seemed like an appropriate time to make a last stand. Apparently Gamblor isn’t interested in sending me off gracefully, as it is plunking down a pair of huge bets on a pair of terrible teams, the Jets and the Dolphins. Don’t worry, I’ll still be active elsewhere on Popdose, you just won’t be subjected to my terrible gambling advice on a weekly basis anymore!
Thanks to everyone who have been tuning in since Gamblor’s inception in 2009! Best of luck.
