According to Wikipedia:

Except it’s not like the stock market — the biggest difference being that, even if your stock goes down, you still have something that has value, i.e., a share of stock in a company/mutual fund/ETF/etc. (unless the entity behind the security goes belly up, a relatively rare occurrence). If you’re going to compare DFS

The Rose is contractually played on Jan. 1st. ESPN isn’t changing that, CFP isn’t changing that. Suggesting it move is a non-starter for the Tournament of Roses Committee. The only decision to be made is when would the CFP semis be played (when the Rose is not a semi) — ESPN and anyone with half a brain wanted those

Just as “being a terrorist” and “being an idiot” are not mutually exclusive, I don’t think “being a terrorist” and “being treasonous” are mutually exclusive.

I’m not sure “being a terrorist” and “being an idiot” are mutually exclusive. One can be a terrorist and a moron. If McVeigh had blown up the unoccupied Washita Battlefield National Historic Site Visitor Center in Cheyenne, Oklahoma, instead of the Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, he’d still be a domestic

He sounds like a complete dick, and if he did do it...

It doesn’t - the CFP leaders do. ESPN offered the CFP Jan. 2, but the powers that be wanted the semis to be played on NYE, this year and every year. They’re naive and foolhardy, but they make the decision.

Disclaimer at beginning of email likely has same effect as disclaimer at end of email: You’ve already accessed the information without acknowledgement/acceptance of disclaimer terms. However, an email with a link to the “real” information, and a statement that “by clicking here to read the email you accept the terms

And that’s fine, more power to you. Just don’t call it hummus — or at least call it “hummus”. Because real hummus does not include vinegar, eggs, or mayonnaise.

You think vinegar is a traditional hummus ingredient? There’s your problem right there. Hummus is chickpeas + tahini + olive oil + garlic + lemon juice. No vinegar to be found — no mayo either. Hell, if you want to smoothen it up, use yogurt.

Manslaughter, not murder.

DFS is gambling in the casual term and is gambling in the legal term in many states including, according to its AG, New York. Under NY law:

You’re right, it’s not about race, it’s about knowing your place. Wilson knows his place. Cam clearly doesn’t. Just ‘cause he’s a rich, talented athlete leading a team to a currently perfect 8-1 record, doesn’t mean he can act out and step out of (society’s) bounds.

Still, not a finding of “completely innocent”. He was fortunate enough to be able to buy the victim’s silence. Good for him. Doesn’t mean he didn’t beat a woman. Just means he has enough money to avoid legal culpability. He doesn’t escape moral culpability, though (not that it’s the NFL’s purview to enforce same).

for a personal legal matter that he was found completely innocent of in the court of law

There’s a lot of money in the DFS industry — A LOT of money. But it’s not Wall Street money. DFS is nouveau riche-level money; sure, it’s more than the local bookie and or casino, but it isn’t that much in the grand scheme. Wall Street, however, is old money: Bankrolls so large they make grown men weak in the knees,

DFS operators spent thousands of dollars lobbying

Even correct advice can get you in trouble if you’re not licensed in the particular state if it rises to the level of Unauthorized Practice of Law.

Welcome to the wonderful world of the practice of law. That’ll be $450/hr.

You are a terrorist and should be sent to Gitmo.
