mickey you seem to have a fascination with the word "ass" when you get into your tough guy talk. Could it be because you're living with your daddy? Should mommy be jealous??
This is the best creative writing class I've ever attended.
I'm going to wing this without looking stuff up, but I seem to recall that a protagonist should be the person whose point of view commands the story or the character with which we are supposed to identify.
Rob's point of view doesn't really command the storyline here, but there is a certain pathos that draws the reader in with Rob. Kind of like Frankenstein's monster. You feel for him, even though he's strangling the villagers. And when a blind guy takes him in (no Alan, I'm not referencing you -- it's actually in the story), the monster gets along swell. Until he throws the little girl in the lake, although that may have been an analogy for the times that 57K goes down the Martingale River.
Rob probably sees himself more as a latter day Dexter. I only saw that show a couple of times, but I got the drift. A serial killer who kills serial killers. Kind of like somebody who uses 95% AP strategies, but goes around killing AP's because they're evil.
I expect a Pulitzer to go with my MacArthur for what I just wrote, by the way.

I think it's beneficial to discuss the anatomy of winning plays, the anatomy of a winning strategy, and the anatomy of a casino winner. But that should exclude the actual human anatomy. Thank you.
They didn't cheat enough.
No way they're cheating themselves to a win this time around. (I'm not saying they've ever cheated though)
Take off that stupid mask you big baby.
Somebody has them at 14-1 to win the thing.
What was interesting was that, while the Patriots drew spread money the last 24 hours, moneyline money came in on the Broncos at the end.
