    What has America turned into? This is unreal and pathetic.....

    At least people weren't offended by the dancers wearing the US flag costumes being pictured whilst kneeling.

    RIP OJ SIMPSON

    I remember Leslie Nielson trying to promote his latest film on BBC radio some time after the murder trial and being constantly badgered to comment about Simpson instead. After dodging the topic multiple times he finally gave in and said "I'm not 100% convinced he's 100% not guilty". That always...

    Pga tour Players championship this week who's going to win Rudy give us a winner

    Only good advice I can give in regards to golf is if you're ever at a golfing event and you find yourself next to a Brit named John Carter - bet whatever he bets. lmao.

    Pga tour Players championship this week who's going to win Rudy give us a winner

    Pre-tournament the total book price on the winner is normally 200% or a little higher. The juice is so high UK books now pay out each-way bets on up to top 10 finishers rather than top 4 as was the case 20 years ago. Off-topic but a large proportion of the total book price juice is down to...

    Kenny Pickett to the Eagles

    Fields is due $3.23M this year, and that's all an acquiring team would have to account for. As a back-up for a low pick, (or swap picks for low pick value), that's fine. If the acquiring team doesn't have someone who is clearly better as the #1 QB it would be a problem.

    Kenny Pickett to the Eagles

    There's no market for Fields as a starter. His contract situation is too problematic. There's a limited market for him as a back-up but it depends on what the Bears are willing to accept and having a better option as the starting QB.

    Kenny Pickett to the Eagles

    Even before Wilson the Steelers would have been looking to the Draft for a QBOTF. Pickett was their fall-back position as #1 QB if they failed. He wasn't valuable enough for them to tolerate his being a problem. They'll sign a non-threatening back-up to Wilson for now and see what happens in the...

    Anthony Joshua just put Francis Ngannou to sleep

    Heck of a KO. I also enjoyed the Zhilei Zhang vs Joseph Parker fight that was on before the main event. Good win for Parker. I wouldn't have bet Zhang at -190 but I was rooting for him.

    F-1's Christian Horner Truly is a Wanker.....

    It's a sport for alpha plus personalities. These people compete to get through a door first or be first in the lunch queue. It's a millionaire's me-first club. They'll lie, they'll cheat, they'll f**k you over for a percentage. Horner is worth about $80M. I'm not going to excuse his behaviour or...

    F1 Bahrain

    Thanks. The 1st race is normally difficult to read other than for cars being obviously very good or having obvious problems. It's not a betting friendly market as books juice the heck out of it.

    F1 Bahrain

    Lando Norris to beat Fernando Alonso in Saturday's race (+115 b win dot com). Verstappen looked quickest in testing last week. The Ferrari looked 2nd best over 1 lap but was less quick in race trim. The McLaren was 3rd best. Mercedes were probably just 4th over 1 lap but they looked quicker in...

    Landline Telephone

    Contact your provider and get them to change the settings. You'll also need a landline phone that is capable of receiving and displaying text messages. I'm in the UK so obviously rules and regulations are different. I'm hearing disabled. I have a landline mostly so I can contact the emergency...

    Is Mike Evans and Baker Mayfield gone?

    Nothing to see here. Mayfield signed a 1 year contract for 2023 that was designed to have most of the cap hit delayed until 2024. It cost nothing to delay the hit and it gave the team short-term cap flexibility. Evans' contract was designed to push the cap hit back.

    What if?

    3rd possession would still be an advantage if neither team scores on their 1st possessions or if both teams kick FGs. Overall there's probably no advantage to kicking or receiving. In an outdoor stadium it's probably better to take the wind or favourable field conditions.

    Niners players say they didn’t know Super Bowl overtime rules

    It's not an overtime period or an overtime quarter. It's a new game half, (IE 2 quarters), when an offensive score on the 1st possession doesn't automatically win. The other team gets a possession and the game is only over after those 2 possessions if 1 team has scored more points than the...

    What if?

    Assuming both teams scored TDs on their opening possession then of course the team scoring the 2nd TD in OT would go for 2. The team having the 3rd possession would have a near 70% win probability. The bigger question was whether the 49ers would have gone for 2 if they had scored a TD with the...

    KC Is The Square Side

    I'm seeing Pinnacle at -2.5 49ers -104 Chiefs -106. Personally I think the line should be -2 49ers -103 Chiefs -107, so i'm a little surprised. A 1.5 -116 -104 line normally switches to -2 -110 -110 so it's a very small window. On a game like this I wouldn't want that Push option. I'd rather lay...

    KC Is The Square Side

    The line opened 1.5 and moved early towards the Chiefs at 1. Within 24 hours it moved back to 1.5 and then it settled at 2. It's a very thin margin between 1.5 and 2. I think the line is right at 2 but there's every chance the people who originally nibbled at Chiefs +1.5 nibble again at +2 just...
