Heh... like I figured, you haven't an inkling of the words meaning. *sighs*

Mods are on strike due to our unfair treatment

 

Sounds like you need replacement mods to cover for this, like in the NFL

Interesting enough, they update this guy regularly on ESPN.com.

 

..and Billy Beane said he needs to get involved with baseball (the guy’s on record for saying he always dreamed of running a bb team), so maybe this isn’t too OT after all

He said he got his start as a gambler in baseball when the bookies weren't great at setting odds.

 

He was on a fangraphs podcast: https://blogs.fangraphs.com/effectively-wild-episode-1371-what-is-sabermetrics/

Tiger v. Phil 2.0

So he lost just short of Jennings' record? He seemed uncharacteristically muted. I wonder if he bet against himself lol.

He's a notorious gambler. I wouldn't put it past him to throw the match to cash in on a bet against himself!

No. I'm talking about posting spoilers.

 

I already got spoiled by someone on Saturday night when the final jeopardy video leaked but you shouldn't post spoilers without warning.

Not really. Even if you don't care, many people do. Jeopardy is the #1 syndicated show and is the middle of the biggest buzz in 15 years.

Ok I see what you're saying now. I've been passively following and the episode itself hasn't even aired yet (I thought it had). I saw the spoiler mentioned on Twitter plenty of times and thought that the episode aired last week or something. No one was commenting on it like it was a spoiler or anything, just casually talking about it on Twitter. So I was merely commenting on something that I thought was already well known news. My mistake!

No problem, my friend.

Nah. Don’t think he could make enough gambling to be worth the $$ he’d be losing by not winning. Any sizeable prop bet for Jeopardy would draw scrutiny, so it’d be traced back to him easy enough in all likelihood
