Good for him. He still makes a ton of money per season but gives Edmonton 2 seasons to get their shit together and get him and the other stars on the team some real help in other positions. "Can't do it in the next 2 seasons? Later."

LOL. Coach Franklin is sticking around through the end of *that* contract. It's just amazing to me that schools will give out a contract like that. At the very least, there should be some numbers to hit before a coach gets that kind of payout just for getting fired.

Although I'm tired of Dabo and quietly hope that UNC handles Clemson today.
Please don't look at the scoreboard.

These are really cool. I have to admit, I did not know anything about the 1966 World Series, even who played in it. The O's swept the Dodgers and pitched 33 scoreless innings! Uh, dominant?

That gigantic load hitting the inside of his pants right now is McJesus's agent. Speaking of the Earlers, they have to be the happiest people on this planet for locking up the, arguably, second best player in the NHL for 8 years, $14 million AAV. McJesus will surely get about $21 million per season from *someone*. All that being said, ain't no way is Kaprizov worth $17 million per season.

For the Love of God Stop Betting Parlays
I was told by an old timey gambler to bet only on an underdog and only then if you feel that they will actually win the game. Also, *never ever* bet on parlays. They are nothing but sucker bets and only chumps put money on them.
When "sports wagering" arrived in NC a year or two ago, I put $100 in an account and have been playing with that money ever since then. I think I'm back up to close to that. But then again, I follow that guy's advice and hardly ever gamble.
