Dallas Trip Part 3: South Oak Cliff High School

BRISKET TACOS ARE SERVED!

Tonight’s Mexican feast — soft corn tortillas filled with beef brisket, sauteed with onions and tomatoes. Served with rice, pico de gallo and charro beans. Salad and fresh guacamole. All for $14.95….along with an astounding margarita (okay, 2) with hand squeezed lime juice as the mixer.

Stupendous. Next to a tortilla factory in Oak Cliff. Family owned and run.

And they say crime doesn’t pay.

Well, at least Clyde isn’t resting alone.

Here’s my latest article on NBA Playoffs betting, which could apply to any sports wagering situation. The host site is betcoin.ag.

The subject here is gut feel and instinct versus line movement in the opposite direction. My conclusion is this:
