  1. ...being in sole-first of the Big 10 isn't a thing I guess? It’s great to win the league, but not all schedules are created equally. Wisconsin didn’t have to go to Michigan, Michigan St or Iowa and only played Illinois once. And I will also be laying the hammer with Purdue -2.5 tonight. I think that's a good bet, and SSR's point is way valid, but dogging Wisconsin for SOS is silly. They are 13th in the nation in SOS, 6th highest in the Big 10. (Illinois is 6th and 1st, respectively.)
  2. Wisconsin is the team I'm most confident will horsefeathers the bed come March. Other than a win @ Purdue, what have they really done? They beat Houston and St Mary's, I guess.............? ...being in sole-first of the Big 10 isn't a thing I guess?
  3. I feel like I should just start a new thread called "Guess what Jokic did with a basketball now" https://twitter.com/TedBuddy8/status/1498134704532295685 Embiid is just as worthy for the MVP as Jokic, but this page is just so sick: https://www.espn.com/nba/team/stats/_/name/den
  4. If it means he announces less Packer games (which it would) I'm down.
  5. It's also 2 degrees outside right now.
  6. Dood clearly has experience. Wut's yer background, Southpaw?
  7. End of the Badgers-Wolverines got testy. Badgers had the game in hand, and landed a 3 with a little over a minute remaining, and that annoyed Juwan Howard. So he put on the full-court press when the scrubs came in to close the game out. Wisconsin almost turned it over, and one of their players lost a shoe. So Wisconsin called a timeout, which further infuriated Howard, who then had this team foul on the in-bound. Game ends with little else of note, but Howard took his time getting in the handshake line. He then said something to Gard (Wisconsin coach), and Gard stopped Howard, and then things got heated, with Howard slapping/grabbing a Wisconsin assistant coach in the face, and a few players threw a few haymakers in the scrum. I was entertained.
  8. If Jokic keeps this up for a decade or less, I think he's up there with Shaq, Kareem, and Wilt as the best big of all time, no?
  9. horsefeathers em all. Seems like it’s all mostly old guys like Phil, Kokrak, Hoffman, Poulter, Westwood, Stenson, etc. Bryson, DJ and Ancer are the only younger guys they might get. The league is going to be a disaster and nobody will watch or care. I'll admit this will be convenient for me.
  10. I'm not nearly as gung-ho to carry the PGA's water. Sure, playing for the House of Saud is gross, but all this "how COULD you!?! We paid you money AND gave you opportunities!!!" pearl-clutching routine jumped the shark a century ago. THE SAUDIS ARE OFFERING BETTER!!! Maybe highlight the political and ethical differences between the tours? ...or is that a tougher sell?
  11. I'm not a sports psychologist, but I'd have to imagine that's almost by definition a mental health issue.
  12. Interesting choice, China:
  13. I like that the announcer confuses dumb luck for grit and hard work, just like any other successful jackass irl.
  14. I think that bet had to have been made before the season started to get a payout like that, right? I don't see a date on there but I doubt it. To get the exact scores of two playoff games on a parlay would be ridiculous odds. Yeah, I posted the betslip on the previous page. The guy was probably bonus whoring, where you go to different sites and take advantage of promos they offer. A common promo is the "lose your initial bet, get a free bet of equal value" which they pay you for in site dollars or whatever. I won't go into the nitty-gritty, but making longshot bets with those promos increases your EV significantly, which is probably prompted him to make a crazy longshot parlay like that.
  15. This chart was amazingly unsurprising.
  16. I dunno, but I do know this: https://twitter.com/SenquezPick/status/1487976372421238785
  17. I visited some friends in Silverlake and kinda dug it. Coincidence that the two coolest helmet designs, by far, made the SB? I think not.
  18. Even as a Packer fan, and despite the first week being straight garbage, I think the answer is clearly yes.
