Yeah under normal circumstances I'd just stack against Homer Bailey and not get cute but I figure ownership would be through the roof so only grabbed a couple pieces. Was super annoyed last night when I thought I was being contrarian and the A's came in above 20% owned.
Been on a Frontline binge. This one made me think of you two.
I haven't had time to watch that, but just my observations on the industry:
It's a massive business. It's crazy. I'd say its a combination of state's legalizing it (It's a "skill" game vs. gambling) versus not legalizing gambling so it was many sports fans' first foray into legalized gambling (Also shows the taxes that states have missed by not legalizing gambling), and the instant gratification aspect of our society in 2018. It's always a little more interesting if you have something riding on it.
I've taken a bit of a season-long look at the golfing and am decent at it. I started out with $10 a week, won some money and now spend $40 a week. I'm up about $350 over the course of the season. I see and hear about guys spending thousands of dollars a week, and that's kind of crazy to me. I just enjoy having a little riding on it. I'm probably in the hole on baseball and football, but I only enter $1-$3 contests here and there in those two, and I don't study lineup construction and finding value and inefficiencies in pricing like I do on the golf. I spend a few hours a week looking at it.
Dammit I was close...until Smith and Rose made runs. I was in first in the $1 for about 9 holes.
Rory is ******* up my day.
Won a ticket into a NFL milli-maker, damn near had two. I only played $5 on 5 lineups in that and doubled my $6 entry on a single-entry tourney. I played light because just 30 golfers, but I’d say that’s a success.
Lol, my best lineup at the moment has CJ Beathard at QB...
