This is what happens when you normalize gambling on everything — from sports to elections to war. It’s a symptom of a culture where insider access = profit, and the rest of us lose faith & trust in everything.

Sports betting was just the gateway.

A CNO user just shared this with me:
On Monday morning, Sporttrade had Ohio State/Indiana point spreads flipped. The user wagered $15k on these lines. Within 2.5 hours, Sporttrade voided these trades pre-game.

The user had already arbed it out and Sporttrade generously credited them $300, which was the cost of cashing out the other side.

Sporttrade did everything right without requiring social media pressure:
✅ Catching it before the event
✅ Owning the glitch
✅ Making the customer whole on their real cost

Let's give @sporttrade_app credit on how well they handled this.

One last side by side to show the comparison.

if the first video is credited as a Champagnie block, then the 2nd video should be credited as a Hardaway block on Fox and a Jokic rebound

@nbastats @NBAStatAuditor

[jjark @0xjjark]

@slimbob3 @NBAStatAuditor I'm almost certain that it's a shot attempt if Hardaway makes any contact with the ball

[jjark @0xjjark]

@NBAStatAuditor Champagnie credited with a block from the same game

[jjark @0xjjark]

@NBAStatAuditor @slimbob3 @57kBuckets Yeah, they already corrected it during the game, and I hate this loose-ball foul rule as well but you're 100% correct that they will not give the rebound if it's deemed that kind of foul, even if player looked like they had clear possession

[jjark @0xjjark]

@slimbob3 @NBAStatAuditor I see what you're saying. Can't get better quality video than the replay but Hardaway's arm swings down when Fox brings it up.

Upon review, it's very hard to tell if he makes contact with the ball or Fox just loses it, damn.

literally the same as the play in question, credited as a Champagnie block @NBAStatAuditor @nbastats

[jjark @0xjjark]

@nbastats @NBAStatsAudit this should be credited as a Hardaway block and Jokic rebound

[jjark @0xjjark]

"a shot can be considered blocked even if the ball was not in flight before being blocked" clock running down, Fox isolates the defender and clearly is going into his shooting motion, this should be a block @NBAStatsAudit @nbastats

[jjark @0xjjark]

@NBAStatAuditor Hardaway on Fox at 2:29 in Q4 should be credited as a block and Jokic rebound though? It's essentially the definition of blocks they give to guards (CP3 being a main example)

🚨 SEC 70114 buries a 10 % tax on every $ you *win*, even when you break even.
• Tiny “pay-for”: +$1 B over 10 yrs vs $3 T bill (0.03 %).
• Drives handle offshore → states & feds lose more than it raises.
• Hidden tax = bigger deficit, not smaller.
STRIP 70114 or VOTE NO on the rule. #Kill70114 #StopHiddenTax #HoldTheLine

• Win $100 k / lose $100 k → IRS taxes $10 k you never kept.
• Nevada, NJ, LA unions + AGA OPPOSE the cap.
