He says his friends just follow random sports to bet on them. His friend recently got him into the NBA because his friend is betting on NBA parlays and props
16 years old
I knew it was cooked when kids at pickup were talking parlays instead of which player is better but man...
At an iftar yesterday a high school kid was asking about my job so we got up talking
I asked him just out of curiosity how many of his friends see this sports betting stuff
He says almost every other guy in school is just vpn-ing and using polymarket and other betting apps
Why did they start with 3 point contest though man wtf
gunna watch the espn Disney stream, I hope goofy wins the dunk contest this year

Giannis x Kalshi is a recipe for disaster for the NBA
I went on a classic Dishes & Dimes rant on our latest episode
youtube.com/shorts/CDFj0...
The whole thing is so good but the Nancy Pelosi comparison
(question: could Scottie or CMB grow into a pnr partner for IQ given their play-making or would that be too much wear & tear on them?)
The Giannis Kalshi rant!
Iβm throwing βthrivingβ in there because that show was as much a celebration of all that we are as it was an indictment of everything that America thinks it is.
Just straight up forced them to look at how everything they hold dear, everything that makes the Americas what they are, was and still is the product of the labor and thriving of Black and Brown bodies.
Bro literally came out and said βitβs our labor and culture that has always made the Americas great: yβall are just the beneficiaries of slave owners from sea to shining sea,β and I am here for it.
Trayce Jackson Davis splits his first 2 FTs and is now OFFICIALLY a Toronto Raptor
James Harden?
The Raptors have shooters on the bench in Lawson and Battle but you just aren't going to see them play over Gradey and JaKobe
And the Raptors are already limited by their starters lacking shooting so unless you change those guys how does adding a shooter help
IQ RJ and Poeltl are salaries the Raptors have to eventually move for a talent upgrade along with picks so let's ignore them
If you want the Raptors to add shooting at the deadline who are you trading or whose minutes are you cutting?
Gunna try and test stream in a bit
Any Raptors NBA Qs or Topics?
What is actually a reasonable monthly car payment lease or finance?
I haven't had one for a minute but woof I looked up a few lease takeovers and goodness what are people signing up for?!?!
Beyond anything else my old ass has seen this Raptors team before many a time
Playoffs gunna be scary hours
Fell asleep at half, missed the third, woke up to watch the entire 4th
What a fucking embarrassment
Beyond all the role players, Scottie Barnes I expected more fight
Team going off the rails and he disappears for a 5 minute stretch after getting blocked while Orlando puts the game away
NEW YORK (AP) β Judge rules that Luigi Mangione should not face the death penalty if convicted on federal charges in CEO's killing.
Another day that I've just been unable to sleep at all
I don't get it
As a new user just raw jumping in the app its very much up to you to build the feed you want, which fine there is no algo but again creates a pretty narrow echo chamber
Hope it succeeds but I don't see mass adoption, especially when being sold as a tiktok/X alternative since it really isn't either
its cool seeing the energy there is for upscrolled but I will say personally I find it a hard platform to get going on
The discover tab is truly a random assortment of posts and languages and since images text and video is combined in one feed you get a wide array of sizes
looks like a FB feed
Cooper Flagg has been absurd and it feels like no one is reaaaaaally talking about it yet
