  1. Oh pfft. The way the law is written, you can only claim 90% of your losses, but must report all your winnings. So if you make 10,000 in bets and wind up breaking completely even, you'd have to claim 1000 dollars. So it isn't just people making money that this would ding. It's just taxing gambling on top of what its already taxed, which is already pretty bonkers. And even if you're a prude and don't want any regulated gambling at all, this is just going to drive gambling underground and reduce tax revenue, like a lot of what this administration seems keen to do.
  2. Almost every single podcast and betting/poker feed that I listen to (which largely has the stance of "politics is dumb" or just don't want to out themselves as conservatives) is now openly pleading with their listeners to call their representatives to not pass the bill. It has a pretty heinous addition that limits what gamblers can itemize for losses. The face-eating is next level...but there isn't any catharsis (and also hurts me fairly significantly) in it. It's infuriating that THIS is the part of the bill (and life in general) that has them upset enough to pull a shameless 180 and get political.
  3. Half all of my crappy SS and 2B eligible fantasy players got hurt this week, so I decided to pick up Shaw off waivers on a flier last night hoping that he'd get called up soon. Woot!
  4. The gut makes me think it's late-career Maddux.
  5. 18 made the playoff win even cooler. That was fun to watch.
  6. Can we have some random polls included as well? Maybe for something, like, if Sublime or Rockapella are the more musically gifted/respected group?
  7. Well, I wanted more, but in a 6 to 3 game outscoring the rest of the WRs on the field will have to do.
  8. I really, really want DJ Moore to completely ball out. Like 1.5 million dollars want.
  9. That was comically bad.
  10. I've got a lot of Best Ball nonsense riding on Addison not going nuclear. (And Moore outscoring Mooney) let's go Bears!!!
  11. And now that I think about it, the Kingpin analogy really works, as Woody Harrelson was there in Singapore to make the ceremonial first move a few days ago.
  12. My favorite part of the gif is the observing woman's face being blurred out. Can't be associated with that! And yeah, you nailed it with the pro bowling personalities. There is an issue, however, with the current world championship. In addition to not being the best players, they are nice guys. A young polite Indian kid, and a Chinese dude battling depression. I want Kingpin antics! Like one guy hiring a hypnotist to stare at his opponent from the crowd. (Which happened in the 70s)
  13. Yeah, I played just about like I always do until the last three moves. Such a choke job. Would have been my highest rated win by a good 200 points. Just disgusting.
  14. Enjoy my agony. Check out this #chess game: SergeiRK vs limehouse2 - https://www.chess.com/live/game/126486010189
  15. LOL!!! This Cowboys/Commanders game is the funniest game I've ever seen.
  16. And to whatever a jts is, I meant it will replace twitter entirely for me. Twitter itself can piss up a rope.
  17. That was horsefeathers insane.
  18. I just hopped on. I think this will replace twitter in it's entirety.
