Because I can assure you several states tons and tons of kids are becoming mahomes fans. Much to the disgust of their parents. He is Steph curry “must see tv”. It’s a shame the nfl doesn’t embrace this nearly as much as they could or should
ESPN is in Bristol Connecticut..basically all media is based on the east coast, it was far easier for them to lean into Boston than it is Kansas City. [Reply]

Yes sir, they do. And no sir, I don't think I have that sort of standing here. That's a request for Bwillie.
When I first got into sports betting the website was betcris, which stood for bet (duh) costa rican international sports. They folded into the Greek and Bookmaker, the Greek for international clients, Bookmaker still going strong for US clients. My prime in sports betting was just when Pinnacle was becoming inaccessible to US customers and Matchbook also followed suit around that same time. So I was a big BETCRIS guy, then Bookmaker. Then an operation known as BetDSI, which is where I made most of my sports profits, that and 5dimes, which offered 5 cent overnight lines on baseball. Both are now entirely inaccessible to US customers, so if you want to bet online these days, that's where BWillie seems to have the real expertise.
Throughout this longer than decade period, at any time I wanted, I could go to "entertainment props" and yes, bet up to $1,000 on any bet involving WWE but I had a phone number to call where they would up my max on props to $5,000. Anyway eventually I got my ****ing limits cut to $100 max on several sportsbooks cause I was beating them so bad on baseball (and steam chasing for a lot of it LOL), and a lot of baseball betting involved derivatives and props.
Anyway I went to a local some years ago and we settle up twice annually. I bet on credit through him but I met him at a private poker game and that unto itself is a long story.
Yes, you can bet on WWE. No, you won't necessarily see it in green and red lights at your literal Vegas sportsbook in the mayhem of the hour before college or pro sports kick off.

I think Mahomes was playing it up to make a legendary moment. Ala the Jordan flu game. He probably told his BFF Romo to play it up on the broadcast.
I was being facetious of course but Travis Kelce insulted my city. If he had stuck to criticizing Bengal players and coaches I wouldn’t have given it a second thought.
Also, Kelce’s comment, “Know your place!” is a racist slam against Cincinnati’s mayor who is Indian-American. The Indian caste system which unfortunately still exists is all about knowing one’s place.
I don't care if he was a Bearcat or not. The fact he was makes it all the worse. Last game he was taking shots at Cincinnati Chili, and last night with his "Know your role and shut your mouth" bs. Dude, you're 1-4, a 25% win percentage and you're gonna run your mouth and talk trash after a win. My feelings towards him are quickly reaching Rapistberger levels.
Same.
That guy needs his bell rung Vontaze Burfict style.

I love Burrow's take on the whole situation. He said it's part of what makes football fun. And with him I truly believe it. He clearly plays for the love of the game - and that is what comes out of his mouth every time he talks.
Classiest man in professional football. I absolutely love the guy.
He totally reoriented MY attitude towards the comments by Kelsey and Mahomes. I was smoldering.
All Joe sees is that they made more plays than we did. Not what Kelsey and Mahomes said; not Ossai's play; not the refs...
He is the reason I have so much pride in and hope for this team. My favorite Bengals team ever.
At least one guy gets it.

Bengal fans actually have the gall to suggest that Chiefs shit talk is going too far.
DO YOU LISTEN TO ANYTHING YOUR ****ING IDIOT PLAYERS AND MAYOR SAID BEFORE THE GAME?
Jesus Christ, talk about a bubble of complete morons.
I don't know man. I see quite a few of them saying they brought it on themselves with all the talk. And many more than a few of them thinking their mayor should shut the fuck up. [Reply]

Some, yes, but my goodness it's thick in there.
The racist comment was the stupidest take I've read in a long time. [Reply]

The crowd was so loud that no one could hear the whistle.
Exactly!
Why does this dipshit keep making up stuff to try to push his narrative? [Reply]
