    You ever watch feeds from the UK? EVERY ad is sportsbetting/casinos/etc.

    That's exactly what we have morphed into. That article is in jest not a real article but is exactly what we have to put up watching sports.

    In the good old days of 2021 and earlier we listened to half time analysts. Now during some broadcasts they have a 5 minute update on live odds rather than listening about how the first half/period/etc went.

    Not being interested in soccer I have not watched UK feeds.

    I have watched Russian hockey and was quite surprised to see ads for gambling sites on the dasher boards.

    Some day Druff & I will experience the same freedoms as Putin’s Russia.


    In the meantime here’s some illegal wagering

    TNT does such a great job. They have brought the NBA intermission entertainment & analysis to hockey. I love the guy, Biz. Biz is god.

    Gretzky makes me sad when he’s on the panel. He looks and acts so slow for 59.

    Of course, Canadien censors prohibit such filth up there.

    Elise Reed -155
    Chase Hooper +155
    Omar Morales -135
    Polyana Viana +115

    Two bets today.

    Miami (T. Rogers) +107 vs. Atlanta (Morton)
    Texas (M. Perez) +153 at Houston (C. Javier)

    Note that Perez has had a great year thus far, and Javier is a bullpen guy for the most part, who got bombed last time out.

    Well done

    To succeed at MLB is more difficult than ever.

    Not that well done. Went 1-1. but profited thanks to the dog.

    Martin Perez was great, as advertised. Wasn't thrilled about them leaving him in for the CG. Up 3-0, he put two runners on in the 9th, and they left him with the ball. Fortunately he got the out and preserved the shutout.

    Our Miami bet had chances. Down only 5-3, they had 2nd and 3rd with 1 out and failed to score, as well as 2nd and 3rd with two out, and failed to score. You can't win if you keep blowing those chances.

    Sent in a sharp soccer play last night that cruised to a W…… and in a rare moment of dumb luck logged in this morning and realized I sent it in twice.

    Going to take a rare mlb play today with the ill gotten profits - Padres +139

    After talking about it finally being overs season, I'm firing on (almost) all strictly weather-based unders today.

    NYM-COL u9.5 gm 1, u10 gm 2. 40 degrees with snow on the ground.
    MIN-KC u7.5. Ryan v. Keller, both have been great. 50 degrees with wind blowing in.

    Last minute:

    Atlanta (Wright) at Miami (E. Hernandez) - Over 8 -110

    Hernandez has just been reliably lousy all year. Wright, after a good early season, has been looking worse past 3 starts.

    Another last minute one. I've been back and forth on this one all day.

    Pittsburgh (Quintana) +122 vs St. Louis (M. Liberatore)

    It's hard to believe that Jose Quintana is in MLB at all, let alone having a good year. He was awful in 2021, and I was surprised anyone was interested in him. But sure enough.. he's having a great season, and is coming off two dominant appearances. One was against the Reds (so what), but the other was against the Dodgers. His ERA is near 2. Matt Liberatore is a great prospect, but he's been hit-and-miss in the minors (3.83 ERA this year, well over 4 last year), and I think the butterflies might get him tonight in his first Major League start.

    This got bet way down from +141. I can't really figure out why. I bet on Kyle Bradish last time out, and he was really lousy. He's been bad in 2 of his 4 starts since being called up. Tamps looks like they're doing a bullpen game, but this Springs guy can easily go 4, and he's been great this year so far.

    I'm passing.

    Wow, pretty awful start on both. Shutout in Miami through 2.5, and 4-0 Cardinals. Nice that Quintana picked today to finally suck again.

    Power of negative thinking/posting at work.

    Right after complaining about Pirates being down 4-0, Liberatore got wild, and somehow useless Japanese player Yoshi Tsutsugo hit an RBI double, and suddenly it's 4-2 with a runner at 2nd with no outs.
