I fear Peter Sirmon will cost us at least 1 road game.

This morning on Fan Duel sports book. Cal is +5500 to win ACC. Might hit the Indian Casino up the road with paltry $10 for a $550 present should extreme luck prevail.

Great summary, quite reasonable and logical. I hate how gambling and dollar bets have permeated this sport and all sports.

California needs to just allow tribal casinos and horse racing tracks to operate sports betting. They already comply with all gaming laws and have the capacity to add sports books to their casinos/tracks. It’s an easy solution.
