Ghool Pool
From a couple years back (click for larger printable version):
Gather your players, collect toothpicks, number cards, one thru twenty-two, draw, and wait.
You can shade in three squares to reflect the decreased number of districts, or for more fun, get 25 players and when you draw the Districts, add three VOID cards and you have three instant losing spaces.
For more fun, you can make a smaller grid and conduct a "Homicide By Beat" contest within your own single District. If you work in 020 though, you'd be due a refund at the end of the year.

I’m gonna pick 020. Dark horse choice, but they’re due. Stay safe out there Tuesday night, people. And to think, Y2K was 20 years ago. WTF.
020 won a few years back.
A few years ago 020 had the first homicide of the year. Don’t know if there were any the rest of that year.
I got 010. Pretty good odds
Fuckin 020... no fun at all.
I drew 019.
Come on Wilson/Sheridan
Pappa needs a winner.
Is LT list being pulled down due to new test?
First 0110 will be in 016. Probably somewhere on Irving Park Rd.
And yet, since pookie isn't afraid to get stopped or challenged anywhere in the city, or highway, or suburbs, it isn't out of the realm of possibilities that 020 wins the first 0110 of the year. Go figure.... CCW you are the change! Front sight....Front sight.... Front sight....
If the reader wishes to play odds based on 2019 murders, the odds are as follows for districts with the highest number of murders.
011:......6 to 1 against winning.
006:...10 to 1 against winning
007:....10 to 1 against winning
015:....11 to 1 against winning
COMBINATIONS: (Four highest districts 011, 006. 007 and 015)...3 to 2 against winning
(Five highest districts 011, 006, 007, 015 and 010)...Even Odds
Use toothpicks.
I've got 011 in the Ghoul Pool for the last murder of 2019 and the first of 2020.
Awesome game!
I won one year! Come on 007!
In the 2nd - A/4, Kedzie and Harrison mid-1980. Won $1,500.00 by districts. I think I had 010.
The beat I wanted was gone, an old-timer dick ready to pull the pin had the beat and walk with 25 K. The mentor of many, John N played and always hit some change back when.
Maxwell street A/4 had some serious big ass payouts in 1970'.
The mind is slipping a bit, but the cash flow on pools of every kind was too fuckin funny to believe. Old Fred Rice was a boss at old A/4, he saved many white coppers jobs. He bet tall and could not catch a cold naked in the artic. The winners always took care of him for holding the poke.
Leroy Martin was a real slug everywhere he went. Hated everybody.
Coppers used to bet who can shot the most rats in the alley by the old Southwater market in a minute, only gat allowed was a snub. The guys got some recruit to count the dead one after every shooter and bag them from the ground. Today's new breed police would shit a brick even seeing the cat-sized sewer rats.
A million stories from the Westside "Naked City." This was just one of them. The old NYPD did the same shit but they had more rats in that now shit hole.
May God Almighty bless the nearly extinct great coppers of old, and may the good Lord give them eternal rest and peace. Amen-Amen.
Thank you sir SCC for keeping us near dead coppers sane. Your a blessing for years now.
Or just go with bonus winners....
3 extra squares are the 3 areas
At least until we go back to old way
004. Bet the bank.I
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
019 with first double homicide in 2017.
Broadway and Leland never disappoints!
The clear winner will be the Gold Coast Ghetto 018th district.

No! No list is getting pulled down until new test results are scored and released then new list comes out
I bet it's 020 for the first homicide of 2020!
(Then again, I always bet on the Washington Generals when they play the Harlem Globe Trotters)
Where’s Wheezie!!
OT: The legalization of marijuana here is going to be a shit show. Yes, I believe weed is a gateway drug to cocaine and heroin. Ask the down and out heroin addicts and they will mostly agree. Of course, alcohol is a gateway drug also that pot heads love to point out. How to you 501 a guy who has been smoking weed for the past 8 hrs and is stoned as a kite? What is the THC level threshold? Does anyone even care? Just more money for this miserable State.
OT
Topping Off The Tank....
O.K., we think we get it now. Just take the tax code and
READ BACKWARDS.
SECURE Act: Extends minimum IRA withdrawal age from
70 1/2 to age 72.
And in something called a "Straddle" (the boys at CBOT will
tell you a slightly different meaning) trade: You take 2019
earned income and 2020 earned income and make the max
IRA contributions. CA-CHING!
PLENTY of compounding time for 66-Year-Old Charlie Beck.
From a financial advisor point of view, that's just ALL too
convenient. Perfect in fact.
They say there are NO coincidences and in Chicago,
you can bank on it.
All well and good to blow off steam, but consider not
what Beck says, but what he does (i.e. banking). Charlie Beck
makes sure he pays himself first, and so should you. Pay
yourself first, not the man. Consider this quote:
"There will come a time when mathmatecial ignorance, like
public smoking, will become socially unacceptable."
- Jerry King
I'm picking 016
i have no clout im finishing up my career in 016
f-ck the southside
Here’s a new pool: bet any shitcago merits act like this kick a white shirt (Actual Chief!!!):
http://video.foxnews.com/v/6118671094001/
Don’t bother, we all know they’ll run in opposite direction screaming like babies for you to take care of it. It’s a losing bet. Carry on and thank you true blue warriors!
We have ours set up by holiday!
I pick 024. The jungle is coming alive!
Make it about 1600 W Juneway give or take 4 blocks.
The district is easy. How about the time?
Kevin Graham is already a causality!!!
Mark Donahue (I endorse Rahm!) backed Kevin in the last election and then the runoff. Mark’s reward was being hired as a part-time lobbyist at $75K a year. After a year they game paid him social security and medicare and expenses. Recently Mark got a 3% raise. That’s on top of $700 a month! After the raise went thru Mark dropped support for Kevin and how is Martin Preib’s boss. Mark knows Kevin will NEVER be reelected. So if you see chalky on the sidewalk in front of FOP that’s Kevin’s outline after being stabbed in the back by Donahue (I endorse Rahm!), Bartlett, and Aguilar all who are making a lot of money for not being elected to an upstairs office.
Box 11,7 and 6. For the Trifecta.

Are we going to put the commanders under oath so they don’t falsify the time of death
Counterfactual Thinking....
There's a short piece on NPR about this.
"Rewinding & Replaying" the past, or that sort of thing.
You know, "What If" type thinking.
Eddie Johnson is engaged in that stuff right now, as if what
would have happened if I had not gone out drinking that
Wednesday night at Cere's?
Answer: Your life would have remained the "same" for the
next 24 hours, but considering your lifestyle, it would only be
a matter of time before you screwed up big time and got
yourself hospitalized or killed.
And such it is with us. We have to accept that this happened,
Beck is "in charge" for now, and we will see yet another "new"
Superintendent in 2020.
Unless you are a corrupted merit, why worry about the future?
Be proactive. Provide for yourself and your family so you will
have grain in your storehouse for the lean years, just like The
Bible says.
Amen.
Run a Baltimore pool too.
Even odds that first 0110 happens at a “house party in the underserved at risk community”

No dumbass. Next test won’t be announced for at least a year.
2 people killed this Sunday a.m. 39th near albany and one an hour earlier at 21st and Paulina. No matter the fake numbers the city put out. Theres no denying 500 homicides had been reached some time ago
This has always been good fun. But, I still do miss a "special" tree that sat in the old A/4 office. That was great fun and really showed the "values" of Shitcago's citizenry.
Deep thinking: Do you need a driver's license
to own a self-driving car?
Come on boxcars. That’s 012 if you don’t know.
School of Ghoul is Harrison precinct. Nuff said.
Total body count for next year 573
I have a feeling 003 is jinxed by the Grand Crossing New Years Eve "peace rally". Outlier against the odds - but that's just how gut feelings work.
Off topic. What is the discipline for failure to swipe? I’m thinking since we can’t strike in order to get this contract we should come together and nobody swipe in or out. Until we have a contract. Yes I know we are going to arbitration but fuck them. I starting my strike today.
my prediction seiser will still run it in 2020
Never the luck, never the luck “Tony Burgdorf” from the original “Oceans 11”
About 11 years ago I had the 009th district. Asshole gets whacked on a S/B Ashland bus at 55th St. The dumb fuck CTA driver pulls across 55th into 007 then calls it in. The dicks running the pool decided that 007 was the winner and I lost.
Retired Area One Sgt
my guess 8 or 22
I’m going west side ...... 015

How do you think Bill Dougherty got that job as a U.S Marshal in the lobby of the Federal Building? It wasn't going toe to toe with the city, it was getting into bed with them!
I am picking King Drive in the Duece
001 will get the first!
Come on Austin money on you..

On the Fuckbook page of Tyrone Muhammad, he is accusing SCC Blog of being a FAR RIGHT WING site:

I guess I have become an official Community Servant and Social Justice Advocate when Far Right Wing groups and Blog sites like "Second City Cops" follow your Social Media page. Now am I supposed to be scared, run in the corner and hide, or stop speaking about the mariad of issues killing black people and destroying black communities?
BLAH BLAH BLAH.....you get the idea.

If you ever read an order you would know. But since you are too stupid or lazy to do that here is the answer:
First, if your W/C is easy going, a counseling form. If not a SPAR with a reprimand. Next another SPAR with 1-3 days. Do it again and maybe you get lucky and another SPAR, 2-3 days. After that, a CR. Now, you sound like a smart ass know it all. So the first time will probably be a SPAR but if you open your moth like I guess you will, straight to a CR. So go for it big guy. Report back how it works out for. You can let us know on one of the days that you are not getting paid for.

Somebody shot up the windows of several stores on Irving Park Road at Keeler. Pot Belly etc. Don't have any details.
My pick is 009. South end up for grabs!
@12/29/2019 06:45:00 PM
That is funny... SCC is hosted on Google so is the biggest left wing tech company allowing a 'right wing extremist' site to run on their hardware? I'd think not.
Try again community jerks. Freedom of speech is for all.
Abla homes (012) for the win!
