I still laugh every time I see the thread title. Like the thought process was clearly, "'Kareem Abdul-Simmons'... no, that's too lazy" and he just took the very next idea.

lol one of the Clay Travis shitheads got denied credentials for tonight's WNBA draft because he tried to pull a gotcha question about trans athletes to Dawn Staley just before the national championship. https://awfulannouncing.com/online-outlets/outkick-clay-travis-2024-wnba-draft.html

Truther Vandross posted:If he didn’t bet on anything he was playing in then who gives a poo poo. He weirdly left the floor twice, and those games coincided with the highest prop bets being on him hitting his under. Not highest for Porter, the highest bets of the night for the sports books. It really really looks like he told people to bet the under and then left the games. He's a lovely player so it's a stretch to call it throwing a game but it's the same idea.

Yeah you can't get away with the dude who has a gambling discord and a suddenly on specific nights where weird stuff happens he is literally the largest money-making prop bet across all of sports. Jontay Porter, LeBron sure loving hell Even Michael Porter Jr, but Jontay?

Luckily, once Jontay is publicly obliterated, the problem will be solved and we can watch our three mandated DraftKings Pick6 promos per quarter knowing it no longer affects the game.

If government can basically ban tobacco advertising outright as a matter of public health, I don’t see why we can’t do the same for gambling, which probably stands to be a greater net ill.

Honestly the fact that this happened with a guy like Jontay is a huge boon for the league. They can show they are tough but no one will care since no one knows who this guy is other than being the brother of a better player.

Don't forget that one of the major bars on tobacco advertising was from the settlement of the main case against the tobacco companies - they essentially agreed to not advertise. The FCC has some authority over Big Tobacco's ability to advertise on terrestrial radio and television bands, and the FDA was given some authority over their marketing in a 2009 bill, but it's in large part due to them getting crushed in court. So we just need to wait 80 years for the long term harms of gambling to become obvious for generations and the gambling companies to collude with each other on lying about those obvious harms and the states getting sick of footing the bill for all the people they hurt. Easy peasy. (At least the current SCOTUS majority will be dead by then)

mcmagic posted:McAfee getting spots with Caitlin Clark and Belichick? I don't understand why he's so popular, I find him incredibly boring. He is but also he's widely popular and its kind of a rock rolling down hill momentum wise. I'm not saying this to compare the two ideologically at all, but McAfee is right now sort of like Tucker Carlson in that he obviously organically grew his reach through working a lot but ESPN has now given him a massive platform and put him everywhere all the time. If ESPN just fired Pat McAfee he'd disappear pretty fast the way Tucker Carlson did once he didn't have the platform. Now granted, the difference is someone else would probably hire him but he's the hot thing right now and ESPN gives him massive reach through hard work but also ESPN's sheer force of will he's kind of everywhere right now. He'll be around for a long while until ESPN decides they want to push a new person. Which may never happen as well!
