Current Events

#1 The house is simply taking a percentage. They don't give a shit who wins, it's nothing like sports books.

#2 Apples and Oranges. Poker sites can fake the hands because they are hidden. They show you the lineup of your opponent when the game starts and it's kind of impossible to fake the results (unless you believe ram).

I would never put any significant money in it unless I had the type of software that the sharks have. Also, I never play in pools. Pools are a sucker game.

I've only made one small deposit ($20, maybe $25 almost 2 years ago but I also don't play often) and I play only $1 head-to-head games and I look strictly for opponents with less than 10 wins. Also, I play mostly Premier League as most Americans don't know much about it and Euros have real gambling sites so they don't need this.

If you do it just for fun, you can play for a long time with a small deposit. If you're looking to make a profit, you won't. It's like FUT or MUT or whatever. Someone with a bot will screw it up for everyone.

Pretty much it

At what point will a class-action suit go against these sites since they are actually profiting off of the names and actual college players? There's been a couple articles lately wondering about this fact, but it doesn't seem to be gaining much traction (yet).

These sites have College Fantasy Football?

They're putting a value on players based on their skill?

That's when you hunt the fucker down, throw him in the trunk, drive him out to the middle of the desert, introduce his kneecaps to a tire iron and leave him as a snack for the buzzards.

If anyone from the secret Internet is reading this,I just wanted to say I don't know this guy. nope never met him

Speaking at halftime, Larry Scott says the Power 5 commissioners have sent letters to FanDuel and DraftKings asking to stop college games.

It was only a matter of time. If they don't do it soon, the lawsuits will fly.

Meanwhile the recent copy of ESPN magazine promotes these sites on its cover

Not me. I love Canada. Now Mexico on the other hand... Double the walls please.

What a fucking moron. Does he really believe that the backwash of that pedophile-hiding, Hitler Youth motherfucker has some sort of magical powers? I hope he gets hepatitis.

It's 2015, people. There is no bearded man in the sky who cares who you have sex with or in what position or what you eat or what day you eat it on. Grow up. It makes me cringe when I think about people who believe those ancient fairy tales making decisions that affect me (and using their book of fables as a guide, no less).

My co-workers were huddled around a computer yesterday watching the broadcast or whatever on CNN in the office. Like 5 of them sitting there watching

So I kindly blocked that computer from the Internet...received a call in less than 2 minutes haha

Now if you are going to be blasphemous, get your Pope facts correct. This one is from Argentina, so I am pretty sure he was not part of the Hitler Youth. Same goes for the last Pope, who was born in Germany but grew up in a household that was against the Nazi Party. Agree on the congressman being a moron. Zealotry is bad, mkay.

There is nothing wrong with having faith Steeler. Live and at let live.

Ok, this isn't the Nazi Pope. The last one was. My bad.

Your version of "live and let live" is, apparently, used to tell me I can't have an opinion. Makes sense.

Nothing wrong with faith? I wholeheartedly disagree.

No, what he's saying isn live and let live, is that you're entitled to your opinion but to not impose it on others. It's like drinking, it's not for everyone. As long as you don't force your opinion onto someone else, there won't be a problem.

But people like to interpret simply telling someone something as forcing an opinion on them.

Well, I have no desire to change your position on a subject. Nor would I stop you from having an opinion on anything, although expect to be corrected when you post misinformation. The last Pope was not a Nazi or Hitler fan either, it has been well established. I am not Catholic, so it's not like I have something to gain or lose from it.

baseballplyrmvp summed up what I was saying about live and let live.
