That was often the only way for folks to bet, outside of some mob backed bookie or traveling to Vegas or London, until legal exchanges came to pass.

What does an acquaintance or coworker have to do with anything?

I didn’t think that the episode of “Coach” when Dauber left his playbook at the Alamo Burger before the Pioneer Bowl could happen in real life, but here we are.

Betting has been a thing as long as there has been trade. I’d rather bet on a reliable exchange than hope an acquaintance or co-worker doesn’t welch on paying up.

fortunately, you can fast forward all the prize pick ads in the podcasts...takes about 5 seconds...unlike some ads where you have to wait a min or so to skip.

But it’s not just gas prices. It’s elections it’s criminal cases it’s everything under the sun and it’s marketed on every website and social media at this point. That’s where my issue is

You’ve managed to repeatedly call them “bad” but never elaborated how they’re different than any other betting or market prediction site

I’d say being able to make a call on gas prices on an independent exchange is far more efficient than relying on some floor trader in Chicago.

Don’t be a dbag. Yes and I am aware it’s controlled by the CFTC but there’s a difference in going look for these things versus them being thrown in your face on every app you use. It’s predatory. Just because you’re the oldest horn doesn’t make you the wisest horn no matter how hard you’re pretending to be

That’s a reading comprehension issue for you then.

No, you haven’t.

I’ve explained it pretty well I think. Also, stop being so damn condescending. Saying my world is little because I’m against sports gambling is unnecessarily belittling. The way you interact on this platform is incredibly off-putting.

Gas prices? Ever hear of the Futures Exchange?

I’m not a sports betting hater while I get it has changed sports. Kalshi and Polymarket are predatory gambling companies that allow wagers on any and everything. You should not be able to place wagers on gas prices, elections and stuff of that sort it’s strange

@Gerry Hamilton AI says 2001 Lakers would sweep 2017 Warriors because 22 year old Kobe would kill 2017 Steph.

No, I don’t. I’m simply wondering why Kalshi is such a bogeyman in your little world. All the deflections are yours, champ.

What facilities are we lacking? They are building the new volleyball facility and athletic dorm. I would like a more intimate soccer venue. I believe they are remodeling the baseball and softball stadiums too.

Texas first scrimmage next Sunday in Austin vs Arizona State

I don’t know much about other forums that don’t directly involve sports so maybe there are other sites that are just as bad. Kalshi still sucks and it’s lame OTF is partnered with them. But go on, I’m sure you have another deflecting question lined up.

And how does that compare with other betting forums?

18 year olds can use it and you can bet on pretty much anything and everything. I’ve come to realize you and I just have fundamentally different views on life and that’s ok. We probably agree on very little and are wasting each others time arguing on here.

Hehe

How so? Please explain.

Mora sure has fallen a long way. Nothing screams “has been” more than a former NFL coach taking a HC role at a bottom feeder college program.
