if I open this account:
http://www.chase.com/personal/banking

would I be able to deposit money into Pinnacle or some other online sportsbook without any issues, and then eventually withdraw back to that same account? Like, just using that card and nothing else...

I’ve got that card myself—definitely recommend it.

Do you have a PayPal account?

I’d say he’s basically a carbon copy of Gips at this point.

Go back and actually read the quote again.😁

Staying on topic here: who cares about Vlašić? He's nothing special. Gips is out there building Terminators... and honestly, he's one himself.

+1 for Pinnacle.

Douglas Kern said:mistycyclist51, my bad for cutting off your thread on those LA Galaxy kits.

Anyway, here’s some more design work from random people all over the world.

Honestly, this jersey would be killer if it wasn't for that obnoxious purple and yellow garbage sitting right next to the logo...

I just do the whole thing manually—I’ll open up whatever post I need to quote in a bunch of different tabs and then just start carving out the pieces myself.🤷🙈

I honestly don't even have the words to describe how much this third row sucks... it’s just beyond anything you could put into text.🤣

don't even worry about it

What’s even the point of this thread?

you wanna shoot me a DM?

Christian Taylor3 is basically trying to say that the forum's search function is absolute garbage...

Paul Jones7 said:Look, if their total budget is only $500,000, then that "laughable" settlement they're fighting over represents 20% of their entire annual budget. They’re actually spending this money—meaning if they drop $100,000, they have to slash their operating costs by 20% somewhere else just to break even. And let's be real, they know damn well this is straight-up extortion... they know HBS is chasing money that doesn't belong to them. I mean, would you honestly want to pay up to someone who's basically holding a gun to your head?

Wait, are we talking about their annual budget here?
Because if that's the case—and I'm pretty sure it is—you can't really look at the settlement through the lens you just described. We aren't talking about a massive drain; we're talking about a one-time payout for an athlete who likely has no less than 10, maybe even 15 years left of high-level competition ahead of him. If you break it down, that figure shrinks to maybe $5k-$10k per season at most...
They'll make that back from sponsors in their sleep every single year. And during that window, he should easily pay himself back tenfold through medals and podium finishes. Of course, that's all assuming his performance stays on an upward trajectory... but hey, that's a gamble, a gamble the Americans decided to take. Maybe he gets injured, maybe he gets into a massive blowout with Hugh, maybe they both end up lost in the woods (actually, now that I think about it, those two together... 😳🤣)...

No, this isn't some deep economic crisis—it's just pure American stinginess (from our perspective) or just "principles" (from their perspective, anyway). It's turned into this game of chicken where two drivers are barreling toward each other at full speed, and whoever blinks first is the coward. Only problem is, Jack Fak is standing right in the middle of the road...

On the flip side, he's terrified right now that he's going to end up with absolutely nothing—no ground to stand on, nothing. After this whole mess, he won't just lose the desire or the ability to represent the US; he'll probably be blacklisted from any decent job in the military, and we all know how much a steady, government gig means these days. Basically, the kid is backed into a corner where he HAS to go back to America, but they aren't exactly ready to drop everything to bail him out. Tough luck, kid. You're on your own to dig your way out of this hole...

He’s just looking for some kind of empathy—but let's be real, those poor guys in the Midwest don't have a dime to their name for any kind of settlement —it’s not like that was his intention

Why don't you just reach out to the moderator in charge?

Words can really sting when they hit you—just look at this...🤣

Any idea when we might actually see this back in stock? Or is it just gone for good...

I honestly doubt that too many people actually get hit with a permanent or even a partial ban for that...

Are we even on the global marketing map at all?🙂...

Are they actually any good?🙂.

aaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA🤣🤣🤣

I'm basically going invisible at this point... it's the only way I can actually defend myself from these obsessed fangirls
