Moneyline bets have no spread, so you bet on who you think will win regardless of spread. For +280, the Pacers were the underdog, so that means if you bet $100 on the Pacers to win, you would win $280. If the pacers were to be favored, for example at -280, you would have to bet $280 to win $100

Uh I think Cam Newton is awesome, but he stole a laptop and threw it out a window in college...

With a much weaker arm, sure.

Even if Manziel had no off-the-field problems, Bridgewater still would have taken that contest on talent. I was terrified the Vikes were going to draft Manziel because I thought he sucked. Mike Evans was the talent that drove that A&M team; Johnny Football’s one NFL-level talent was momentarily avoiding sacks.

We found the freshman philosophy major.

it is not an anonymous internet stranger, but rather JRA. It says so above the bold writing.

Yeah, American players who don’t really know anything about Canada seem to get spooked about it. I remember hearing a story about back when the Grizzlies were in Vancouver, one of their first draft picks cried on draft day because he had no idea where he was going.

This is something that has always confused me. Toronto is an awesome city. You mean to tell me that given the choice between Toronto or...Detroit or Cleveland the average NBA player will go to Detroit or Cleveland?

That “odd rule” you’re talking about is the fact that the Browns beat the Titans. #wikipediatakesfiveseconds

The bad news: Rams mortgaging their future to draft mediocre QB to install in imagination-less offensive system run by a lifetime tight ends coach and barely overseen by mustachioed mediocrity Jeff FIsher.

John Elway in 1983. The trade was after the draft, but functionally the same thing.

And to think I doubted it when Sam Hinkie said he’d land on his feet

And my Browns are cursed again because the Rams are taking Wentz and he will end up being a stud and the Browns will take Paxson Lynch whom will be Ryan Leaf.

By the way, just to show how bad the Browns are cursed. They had the same record as the Titans this year and lost to them, but due to some odd rule lost the tie…

Where the hell have you been in the south? I know places where neighbors still bring over food to new neighbors. And we don’t like “hicks” we prefer “rednecks” or if you don’t want to be a rude asshole, “people” will do just fine.

They manage in high need areas by hiring unqualified people at the last second because they are desperate and then firing them the next year when they don’t magically work out.

So like 40k a year??

I recently got emailed a position in Hawaii, and I thought, “Okay, cool. Let me just check the cost of living.” One Google search later and I kept on looking. There’s no way a teacher could afford to live in Hawaii, regardless of experience. I just can’t see how the math works out unless you’ve got three jobs on the…

In a world without SEIU, sure.

Apparently it all went wrong when LeSean was unable to attend a police lineup, so they substituted another person that looked like him.

The officer with the possibly fractured skull should just break down and spring for an x-ray.
