I don’t value any espn programming outside of live sports. If they cancelled every show tomorrow the world would be a better place.
Disney memo: "the reason so many consumers value our programming above others is because we invest in the best talent, creators and content in the world"
No, we like ESPN because it has live games, not because they spend a ton of money on hot take hacks.

Today's news: Ohtani hired the same crisis PR firm as Alec Baldwin, Harvey Weinstein and Hillary Clinton.
Law firm has represented Danny Masterson, armie Hammer and Prince Andrew.
These are not people you hire when you didn't do it.

I love dogs. I love my dogs. I am fucking tired of Kirk Herbstreit and his fucking dog. Find something else to make your personality about.

Pointsbet tried everything, celebrity influences, spending huge amounts on marketing campaigns, a partnership with NBC. They did everything they could to get into the US sports betting market, except take bets.

See a guy at the supermarket buying lotto scratchers at 7:30 am on a Sunday. “That guy has a gambling problem,” I say to myself as I get ready to bet on football for the next 13 hours straight.

Pat Tillman was murdered by his own US Army unit, who then covered it up, burned his journals and lied to his family about it. No amount of propaganda will ever change that.

Tony Dungy told a story on the broadcast last night about Joe Lombardi learning football from his grandpa Vince. I’m almost sure that story is impossible/never happened. Mainly because Joe Lombardi was born almost a year after Vince died.

Moneyball is one of the worst things to happen to sports because it convinced a generation of fans it was noble for millionaire/billionaire owners to not spend money on their teams. 20 years and the A’s have won nothing, traded every star, and alienated an entire fan base.
It has been 20 years since the Moneyball draft.
Those parts of the book about finding underappreciated players, the quest for OBP, unusual pitchers and using an economist's apprpach changed the game.
The parts about the draft? They didn't age as well.

Yesterday I wanted to bet Vita Vea to score an anytime TD and nobody had it listed. So I asked @CircaSports to make a line and within 15-20 minutes it was posted for betting. A couple other books responded and said they couldn't do it. Most ignored the request.

I think everyone is kind of missing the morale of the story here. Trevor Bauer was such a huge fucking asshole and pissed off so many of his teammates, coaches, managers that when he needed people to stand up for him not a single person wanted to help him.
Why haven’t any of the biggest journos in baseball said anything about the biggest story in their sport?

Do you think Ray Lewis ever sees the ghost of the guy he murdered?
The #Ravens will honor Ray Lewis and Ed Reed as "Legends of the Game" and they will be introduced onto the field just before the kickoff against the Chiefs.

Re: gambling taxes/surcharges. Weed store by me put in an ATM. Charges $2 fee to withdraw cash on premise. Average withdrawal between $20-40.
“That’s crazy nobody will pay $2 to take $20 out of an ATM to buy weed.”
Weed store just installed a second ATM this week.

People glossing over the headlines here. The owner of an NFL team offered his head coach 100k a game to intentionally lose games. That should get Ross’s franchise revoked.

Instead of trying to do the right thing Dave Portony doubled down on being wrong and continues to show why he has so little respect in the sports/gambling world. I mean he has all the money in the world and zero respect. Sad.

Based on what we know so far I think the two most likely scenarios
A) Ohtani was betting big and using his friend to place the bets for him.
B) Ohtani's friend was using Ohtani's name for credibility with the bookie and got in way too deep.
Other wise 🤷♂️

When I see people call Ohtani a novelty it reminds me that A&W's 1/3 lbs. burger failed b/c American don't understand fractions and most people thought 1/4 was more than 1/3.
Ohtani rightfully won his MVP. But the 2-way player novelty is no longer in play, so he better step it up bigly to have any chance to repeat.
