It’s been a while since he’s connected on a long ball.

Hopefully, this guy’s failure will help us all feel better.

If ever a poster’s name was the antithesis of their post, this is it. 🤣🤣

Well, well, well….. “This is an opportunity for innovation and a chance to do something really great for the Western New York community. It’s an opportunity that doesn’t come around even every decade,” said Hamburg Councilwoman Beth Farrell Lorentz, who's been heading the effort by the town to move this forward. “We all think that the stadium's surrounding area should be an economic driver and really can be something that enhances the entire experience of being at a game," she added.” “Local developers say the ECC campus is prime for redevelopment into a “town center,” which combines housing with shopping and recreational attractions that could make the stadium and surrounding area more of a year-round experience. It could also open the door to creating a Bills-themed tourist attraction like Titletown, which was built next to Lambeau Field in Green Bay, or a tailgate village. Green Bay, the only market smaller than Buffalo in the NFL, is an example of what could be done around a stadium, where developers stepped up, in coordination with the Packers, to build mixed-use projects around Lambeau Field.” Buffalo News article today: https://archive.ph/poi64

Think of all the Fortune 500 companies that would be here!

Man, all the teams rising from the dead today makes me think I better hit that Jaguar moneyline some more. Just in case…

Scrambled with a bunch of live bets that salvaged a positive net of about $80. If only Denver and LA didn’t eat their cheerios this morning…..

Einstein’s schtick is to start with a ridiculous premise, like stadiums downtown led to Atlanta’s growth, and then slowly transition his argument to a more realistic point, citing “investment”, all the while denying his original premise by saying it is just a piece of the puzzle. 🤣

Mine too. Hope Baker gets it together.

Classic trap game! 🤣🤣

You’d think so but not when individual game odds are in the -500 to -3500 range. 🤣

Starting off on a good note with a win, having picked punts for both Chargers and Steelers on their first drives.

Talk about living in the past!

So if you don’t live there, and apparently the people who do like it the way it is, why do you care?

If the venue was the driver for those huge events, then Syracuse would have hosted an NCAA championship game instead of regionals. Correlation is not causation. Atlanta has much more going for it than its stadiums; a city needs more than bars and restaurants that a stadium crowd wants. Atlanta has a huge number of corporations and large businesses that drive the economy and have nothing to do with their stadiums. So, all you gotta do is build a stadium downtown and watch the jobs flow in? Got it.

I remember the Tommy Nobis Falcons in Fulton County Stadium.

Three football stadiums since 1990? Georgia Dome and The Benz, what was the other? Atlanta - Fulton County?

Think small, be small. Promo knows all about that living in NH, amirite?

Atlanta didn’t grow because they built a stadium downtown. And honestly, it’s kind of a nightmare trying to get around down there. The state has been investing in downtown Buffalo for a while. The Pegulas have helped, but the idea is to have venues that are attractions more than a handful of days a year. The Bisons stadium made sense - it has a small footprint, doesn’t require additional infrastructure and is used many times during the year.

Yup; I don’t do any parlays without some kind of added incentive. And I also shop around between three books for best odds.

Me either! All it took was $5 and a dream. 🤣🤣

Like you, I don’t live there. And just because there are a couple restaurants and bars, doesn’t make it an “entertainment hub”. I’m referring to places with downtowns that are destinations, like Nashville. Same thing.

It is definitely just for fun. The last two weeks have been pretty interesting 15/16 and 17/18. I can do this the rest of the season for a cup of coffee every week. I’m definitely not trying to make money off sportsbooks. It just makes watching games I wouldn’t ordinarily care about more exciting. That Monmouth-FIU game was a thriller 45-42 and I only watched it because I knew it was the game that would make or break the parlay.

I'm asking what 4 legs are giving you +2500?

which 4 legs?
