happy football season, quick reminder that sportsbooks win about 3% of your money on straight football bets, but almost 20% on parlays and same-game parlays.

which is why they have all the ads for those and not regular bets

@dannyheifetz.bsky.social I think you’re misremembering who was responsible for pick-sixes when Penix played the Giants. Hes has yet thrown a pick six in the NFL. Not saying he’s incredible, but that comment made me do a double take. www.tsn.ca/nfl/michael-...

Nothing to post about until Whit Babcock is fired.
I thought you posted about the Hokies? Guess not.

@harrisfootball.com Love your work. Been listening for years. Just saw the week 1 ranks. Thoughts on Pollard being so low? I get the matchup is brutal, but Tennessee was supposed to have an improved OL per that ep with Ross Tucker.

So, Flexual Healing: Pickens or Pollard?

Should’ve held out for the real number, which would be 56-7.

Everybody crowning UNC after one drive needs to understand that UNC has never been a serious football program, and there’s a reason Belichick isn’t coaching in the NFL anymore. Nobody wanted him. This whole thing is just a media circus designed for attention. Flash. No substance

These usc jr. fans are way too fucking confident for a team that gave up 41 sacks. Folks talking about a 4 score win & resting starters.

30 xfrs & new OC & DC, so we’re basically unscoutable. uscjr’s favored for a reason but we play football too

Kansas City’s airport that opened in 2023 is phenomenal. 4-5 local breweries throughout, partnerships with local vendors, easy to navigate.
Actually, you know what? Let’s stop complaining for a second. QT this with a GOOD airport. Defend that title as much or as little as you like. But let’s hear about airports that don’t suck.
