After Moses Malone made the unprecedented leap from high school to the NBA in 1974, many wondered how he could pass up the opportunity for a free college education. 20 years later, no one questioned the decision he made back in ’74. Twelve-time NBA All Star and three-time MVP, Moses Malone was a superstar when most players were rookies just entering the league.

Moses had an amazing idea of ​​where a basketball would end up after bouncing off the hoop. Malone would use that ability to become the most dominant rebounder of his era. The most surprising aspect of this is that although he once passed up a college education for the basketball court, Malone is now recognized as one of the most knowledgeable game masters of his generation. He guided the careers of such young stars entering the league as Hakeem Olajuwon, Kevin Willis and Shawn Bradley. After Malone finished playing basketball, his skill carried on to another generation of stars who eventually passed on the same knowledge as his career came to an end.

Moses Malone played for:

• San Antonio Spurs
• philadelphia 76ers
• milwaukee dollars
• atlanta falcons
• washington bullets
• houston rockets
• buffalo braves
• Saint Louis Liquors
• utah stars

Some of the highlights of his career were:

• National Basketball Association 587 offensive rebounds in 1979
• NBA basketball champion in 1983
• 3 times NBA Most Valuable Player
• 5-time NBA rebounding champion
• 12-time NBA All Star selection
• All-time leader in NBA free throws

Interesting Sports Facts About Moses Malone’s Basketball Career

• Malone was the most valuable player on one of the greatest teams in the history of the game. The 1983 76er won the NBA title, losing only one basketball game in the playoffs.
• Malone has the honor of being the last ABA alumnus to play in the NBA. His 21 professional seasons surpassed Kareem Abdul Jabbar’s record for the longest period of service in professional basketball.
• Malone and his mother were barely making ends meet when he was growing up in a small shack. The windows were broken, the roof leaked, the doors didn’t dare, the plumbing hardly ever worked, and there were places on the wall where you could see outside. The first thing Moses did after signing with the Utah Stars was immediately buy his mother a house in the suburbs. The house in which they had formally lived was condemned and demolished by the city.

English Premier Football League Week 22 Match Preview – Part 2

Chelsea vs. Prime

With Chelsea managing to beat Southend in the cup, they will be looking for all three points in their home game. Chelsea should start with Anelka and should win the game quite easily. Although Liverpool did a great job in their match against Stoke last weekend, Chelsea should be able to dominate this newly promoted side. Despite winning just 2 of the last 6 games, Chelsea at home with the in-form Anelka scoring a few goals in recent games is getting into gear as the Premier League enters the final half of the season.

Stoke, who won a point on their trips to Anfield, will be in high spirits when they travel to Stamford Bridge. With Stoke losing 3 and drawing 3 in the last 6 games, you can be sure Stoke won’t be playing at Stamford Bridge.

Game prediction: Chelsea win 1:0

Manchester City v Wigan

With Kaka grabbing all the headlines in the big money transfer gossip of the century, and with only 1 win in the last 6 games, I’m surprised Mark Hughes is still on the job to spend the billions that are available. Craig Bellamy and Santa Cruz are also on the city’s shopping list this January transfer window, so we may see 3 new faces at Man City in February. Although it seems to me that kaká is not going to move to a Mickey Mouse team for 1 million dollars a week.

It seems that Palicious Wigan lose to the Spurs for 14 million sometime in the next few weeks. Having won 4 games in the last 6, Wigan is in good shape and will seek to further increase the pressure on Mark Hughes to winning this game.

Game Prediction: Wigan Win 2:1

Many wives who contact me are extremely confused about their husband’s behavior during or after their affair. Many do not understand how her husband can have any kind of expectation for her wife when he has thrown that privilege overboard because of her betrayal. An example of what I am talking about is a cheating husband who suddenly becomes possessive of his wife.

This is a typical scenario. A wife might say, “It’s been five weeks since I found out about my husband’s affair. Currently, my husband is home during the week because his job is away from his brother’s house. But on the weekends, he stays home.” He stays with his brother.” because I’m so mad at him that I don’t necessarily want him here. We barely talk during the week. Lately, I’ve been trying to go out with friends on the weekends. I feel lonely being here alone. Last weekend, I went out with co-workers. There were some men there, but I wasn’t looking for any romantic encounters. My husband called me while he was out and heard some of the men talking in the background. He got very angry. . He said that ‘his wife’ should not be seen dating other men. That pissed me off. He’s obviously been dating another woman. And he was cheating and I wasn’t. What double standards. I told him that. he had no rights over me. He told me that I am still his wife and that it is not appropriate for me to do so. come out like this I repeated that there was nothing romantic about my departure. I stopped discussing this with him because I just didn’t see the point. But here’s what I don’t understand: why would a cheating husband think his wife belongs to him when he gave up any claim when he cheated? I just can’t understand that thought process.”

Well, no one can read your husband’s mind, but I can certainly give you some theories. I hear from many husbands who have been caught cheating. I think her husband may be well aware that he doesn’t necessarily have the right to question who her friends are or who she’s dating.

It may be wishful thinking on your part: It is possible that your husband is only operating with illusions. She may wish she had that right and may be hoping that it will not be questioned. Ideally, she can expect you to be able to reconcile, and therefore she doesn’t want you to be in a relationship with someone else before the two of you can work things out.

He may be worried about her cheating to get back at him: Honestly, many people who have been unfaithful become very paranoid that their spouse will “revenge cheat” on them as a form of revenge. Deep down, they know they almost deserve it, so they’re always on the lookout. Your husband may not really believe that he has the right to tell you what to do or whom to see, but it could be that he hopes to allow no more damage to your marriage before you can try to fix it.

I’m not trying to defend your husband. And I know you probably don’t have any intentions of getting romantically involved with anyone else right now or “revenge cheating.” But he’s right that you’re still married and even the appearance of being involved with someone else can cause a lot of trouble in an already difficult situation.

making things clear: There is nothing wrong with opening a discussion about this before things get worse and before there are additional misunderstandings. You can try: “I hear what you’re saying, but I think you have some perceptions that aren’t accurate. I hang out with friends of both genders so I don’t sit in an empty house. These are platonic co-workers: although I don’t need to defend myself to you because this it’s totally innocent. There’s nothing romantic about this. You don’t need to worry about that. And by making this a big problem, there’s the possibility of creating problems where none exist. We’ve got a lot of problems that we’re juggling. We don’t need to create more I’m offering you reassurance that I’m not doing anything wrong. Please don’t keep trying to make me feel like I’m doing it. It’s not me who cheated and I have no intention of doing so in the future. I think the best place to put our focus is on our own relationship, and not my relationship with my platonic co-workers.”

Hopefully, these words will put him at ease and he will drop the claims and possessive behavior. But it is possible that he is operating under fear. He is trying to attract you because he is afraid of losing you. Deep down, he knows that his actions have put his marriage at risk. So he is possibly trying to get you closer to prevent further damage from happening. What he doesn’t realize (and hopefully he’ll come to understand) is that being possessive doesn’t really endear him to you and just creates misunderstandings.

The most common mistake amateur and professional sports players make is betting too much on individual events. A simple, hard and fast rule of thumb is to never wager more than 2.5% of your sports betting balance on any given sporting event. However, before we get into the details of how much to bet, there are a few basic rules any sports bettor should remember:

Rule 1: NEVER bet more than you can afford to lose. This is the one rule that many people ignore before it’s too late. Ignoring this, the rule creates all the horror stories. In sports betting, you have to remember that there will be hot and cold streaks and you don’t want to put your rent money or mortgage payment at risk. If the money you are using to gamble is meant for a necessity, then you should not gamble with it. Only bet with discretionary income.

Rule 2: NEVER bet with your heart. This, again, is a simple rule that many players seem to ignore. If the Dallas Cowboys are your favorite team, you have to admit (despite what you may think) that you WILL be biased when trying to determine the winner of any of their games. The common (mistaken) logic is that because it’s your favorite team, you know more about that team and therefore should be able to determine who is the winner of their games. Could not be farther from the truth. The problem with this logic is that you listen to Sports Radio biased towards your team, you read newspaper articles biased towards your team, and more importantly, you are biased towards your team. The best rule to follow is to avoid betting on any game that involves a team to which you have ANY allegiance.

Rule 3: NEVER bet on a game because it’s on TV. It’s okay to bet on a game that’s on TV, but don’t bet on a game JUST because it’s on TV.

Rule 4: ALWAYS bet the same amount on each event you bet on. To put it another way, don’t play $250 in Pittsburgh vs. Dallas, $150 in New England vs. Indianapolis, and $500 in Oakland vs. Chicago. The only reason sports bettors do this is because they feel more confident about Oakland versus Chicago, less confident about Pittsburgh versus Dallas, and a little bit confident about New England versus Indianapolis. Too often, the “best” pick of the day turns out to be wrong, a backdoor results in a turnover, or a late interception changes the outcome of the game. DON’T FALL FOR THE 5 STAR LOCK OF THE DAY. Here’s why: Let’s say Steve bets $500 on Oakland +7 vs. Chicago; $250 in Pittsburgh +4 vs. Dallas and $150 in New England -3 vs. Indianapolis. Also, let’s say Tom makes EXACTLY three of the same selections, but he bets $300 on each game. Both players have wagered $900.00. Suppose Oakland doesn’t cover, but Pittsburgh and New England do. Steve won 2 games and lost 1, but lost $100.00 ($250+$150-$500). Tom, on the other hand, won 2 games and lost 1, but won $300.00 ($300 + $300-$300). There is nothing more frustrating than having a winning percentage, but losing money.

Rule 5 – NEVER bet more than 2.5% of your bankroll on any single event. If your balance in your sports betting account is $1000.00 then you need to wager $25.00 per game. The reason is very simple. If you wager $25.00 per game, you would have to lose 40 games in a row before your account is busted. If you wager $100.00 per game (10% of your balance), you only have to lose 10 in a row before your account is busted. In other words, by staking 2.5% of your account balance on a given game, YOU ENSURE that you can withstand even the worst losing streak. Be sure to follow Rule #4 too… Don’t bet more money on one game and less on another.

Rule 6: Once you increase the amount you bet per game, DO NOT reduce the amount you bet per game. Also, you should only increase the amount you bet per game once you have increased your bankroll by 25%. Taking our previous example further. If the bankroll is $1,000.00 then the bet is $25.00 per game UNTIL the original balance increases to $1,250.00. At this point, the amount wagered per game increases to $31.25 per game (or 2.5% of $1,250.00). I would continue this amount until the balance increases by 25% (to $1,560). If you start losing and drop below the last benchmark, DO NOT REDUCE the amount wagered per game. If you do, you will find yourself in an endless cycle.

By following these 6 simple and fairly basic rules, you will find that sports betting will be less stressful and more fun.
