we're inching a bit too far into FYM territory here... but i would say there's a difference between legalizing something that is fine for most people but harmful for some, vs. legalizing something that is harmful to anyone who takes it.The whole culture of gambling within sports is really gross. A lot of gambling companies over here have pivoted to making content (and a lot of their content I find quite funny, too) because their overt gambling ads were starting to be looked down upon.
I enjoy having a punt here and there but the culture is gross and it's starting to change here in Australia, a lot more people are anti-it now. I don't mind it at all being legal, because I like to bet here and there, but the advertising of it I think should be completely banned. We've completely banned any advertising of cigarettes over here - even the individual packs of smokes here now all have generic, boring branding dominated by warnings, and I'd like to see the same for gambling.
But Headache, I hope you also believe that drugs should be legalised too... if we're pro harm minimisation and surfacing shady stuff into the light.
that would be the game that the raptors would take over the "longest losing streak ever" that the pistons set earlier this year.
but they won't start next season 0-6 with a fully healthy team.
Yeah seriously fuck the heat. They injured Giannis last year in round 1 too.Ugh, Randle is done for the season.
Of course we can't have nice things.
Fuck the Heat.
Yeah this season and playoffs can end anytime. I've mailed it in as a fan already but hopeful they can get things right for next season.Bucks lost back to back games to the Wizards and Grizzlies.
Sheesh.A lot of silence from the Doc Rivers is awful crowd
yeaaaa about thatSheesh.
And the recent injuries. I'm actually fine with Doc being coach next year just to keep some continuity.yeaaaa about that
i still don't necessarily think it's doc's fault. the roster is poorly constructed. they weren't going to do anything regardless with three guards who can't defend.
but, uh, yea.

Nobody seems to want the 2 seed in the East.
Hey at least we’re 5th in…something.7 days to go...
remaining strength of schedule - strongest to weakest
1. Milwaukee .663
2. Washington .654
3. Phoenix .638
4. Charlotte .613
5. Utah .593
It's wild to me how fast time flies. It feels like a month ago since I watched opening night with you, and a whole regular season has happened since. I thought the Jazz would do worse than they did, though.Hey at least we’re 5th in…something.
It’s been a terrible season and this team is not much fun to watch. A projected weak upcoming draft isn’t helping.
