Not against sports gambling, but I am against online gambling. It should be limited to in person only.

Also can't stand how betting has over taken sports media. I think there needs to be better public education about how these gambling companies are using predatory marketing to attract new customers including minors.

It’s annoying, but a couple of our posters get REALLY upset by him, which is total chum in the water in the way my younger self understands.

This is hilarious and I love it.

I’ve never heard of Carl Reed, who self-identifies as a Wing-T expert.

I love everything about this story. Back in the good old days, these Vegas kids would’ve just shaved points, right?

Applications are up 20% in a post Deion world… but CU was averaging a 10% annual increase in applications for over decade, so at least half of that is endogenous to the school.

Would be interesting to see if the trend would hold on into the future if he stays this soft and whiny and doesn’t win, but nobody seems to think he’ll be around enough for it to work

If you use the Sargrin numbers the average is 20%. If you are going to do what you suggest you first have to take out the ones you really have no chance against. That leaves you with an average of 26% chance of winning each of the remaining games. That gives the potential of winning 1.56 additional games. Round up if you want but it puts the likelyhood at winning between 3 and 4 total games. Your 30% is high leading to the calculation of 2.4 additional wins putting us between 4 and 5 So you can either eliminate the 2 no chance games or use 20% rather than the 30%. number you are using are too high.

That’s usually the exact opposite of how it works: legalizing something typically takes it out of the weird back alleys. Why would big corporation fix something and risk their billions of publicly traded dollars? It’s not some scrub trying to rub a few grand together in South Bend, it’s guys in corporate America with regulators up their ass.

There’s been one point shaving scandal in the NBA already and not only did it get sussed out fast, it’s laughable what a pointless exercise it was. The shavers and the player made a couple hundred thousand over a couple years shaving prop bets and the player gets banned for life from a league that pays millions a year on average. Ridiculous deal! Legal and regulated is usually FAR safer in almost every field.
