That's so fucked up. Woke up with the same Friday feeling. Probably because our team finally won and our minds can't wait for the next Browns game.
The problem seems to be that his offense is simple. Good for our offense to learn, but better for the D to scheme against. This isn't the first time where the defense just knew the plays we were running.

Lol yeah this.
Speaking of. I listened to Mike and Mike briefly this morning while pulling in the house, and they were bringing up Luck's running backs and how rare the Colts get 100-yard rushers.
I was thinking, how often have any Giants running backs gone over 100+ yards in the past, say, four years? I was thinking 2011 is when the GIants OL began its downfall and it has taken Reese two high draft choices and two expensive FA's to attempt to rebuild.

DraftKings has spent more than $130M on commercials in 2015 (per @LSPReport)
On an unrelated note, I totally forgot to sign up for fantasy football this year. It's a shame the season has already started and it's too late for me to sign up. If only there were another way.

That's okay because you start over every week! You have a chance to win millions every weekend!
WUH!
But I don't have a lot of cash, that means I have no chance of winning a lot of money, right?

Guy from football outsiders calculated a strength of schedule from here on out table:
Teams near the top have it the hardest (e.g., Cleveland has the hardest schedule from here on out)
Be sure to use Promo Code GAF to match your first deposit up to $200. That's Promo Code GAF.

Oh good, we have the 2nd hardest schedule. Great. Awesome. Who wants to finish higher than 6-10 anyways?

It's almost like you haven't played any division games yet and your division is kind of good.

only 130 million? they have a commercial or two on literally every break during a game, and commercials on sports center all throughout the week.

They also basically bought Matthew Berry's existence.
Matt cashed out the last shred of semi-journalistic credibility he had and now all of his columns are pretty much written DraftKings ads.

Be sure to use promo code SALT when you sign up to match your first deposit up to $200. That's promo code SALT.

Don't worry, they will Crack down on it with regulations soon enough. Much like online poker, it just takes them a while to catch up.
Texans started their 2-14 season with those 2 wins too.

Washington state and Arizona have already banned them. The sports radio in vegas complains about daliy fantasy every single day. It is funny cause the station runs ads for it and then the on air guys say the government needs to outlaw it.

I hope not. Thing with Online Fantasy football is that betting on fantasy football is legal in (as far as I know) every state, but betting on poker isn't legal in most states.
I find the commercials really irritating, but I don't think there's any reason to ban it if people enjoy it. I also don't think Online poker should be banned either.
The gov't will just want a bigger discretionary cut of the profits. In MA, when they cracked down on online poker it's because there wasn't any mechanism to enable the state the profit off of online poker... Poker was banned in the state, so they couldn't turn around and generate revenue from it. DraftKings, on the other hand, is one of the most profitable startups in Boston (I think #2, just behind HubSpot) and the state gets their cut from their revenue and from the winnings that people pay taxes on... So I think the state's revenue appetite should be sated.
I hope they don't shut it down though, no reason to, even though the ads are annoying. Maura Healy, AG in MA, mentioned how the odds of winning are less than 30% for these tournaments... and it's like... Well, the odds of winning in the Massachusetts state lottery is much lower than that. So... seems like a weird thing to focus on.

At least if the Giants lose, I'll get over being pissed off by the time the weekend hits. Though I believe the Giants win tonight. 27-17 is my prediction.
I know the East is shit but this is pretty much as "must win" as it gets.
