I didn't say I actually had an account myself, just that they offer it.😉 Never even tried to register there. If I ever really needed to, I've got a buddy with an account I can just use to deposit...😁

Are you looking for a dual forecast or a straight one?
Since I’m living out here in Florida, I’m definitely not betting against them, but honestly? That 1.4 odds feels like zero value to me.
We all saw how tight their defense was when they played us, and frankly, Norway isn't exactly anything to write home about either.
I’ve been skimming the papers, and it looks like the local guys are totally hyped up. They’re looking at those solid performances against Slovakia and us as proof they aren't just easy targets anymore. They think they've actually arrived...
On the flip side, they’ve got Italy coming up on Monday—and yeah, I’ll probably tune in for that one. It’s the big matchup they’re all dreaming about. Everyone is already mentally playing that game instead of this one. The coach is doing the whole "one game at a time" routine, claiming their best shot is against the Norwegians. Expecting the same lineup we saw against us, minus Borg since he's sitting out with that red card.
I’m leaning toward taking the under and a draw at halftime.
Jitex vs. Kopparbergs/Goteborg score at halftime 0-0 @5.25 (0-4) First half under 1.5 goals @1.83
Grabbed this one online, just a pure statistical play Basically, the home team (not the kind you eat 😁 ) is an absolute punching bag. Their recent stats tell the whole story... a goal difference of 4-29 The visitors are sitting in third, with a +15 goal difference
But here’s where the interesting part comes in: In their last four home games (all losses), the hosts managed to hold a 0-0 draw through the first 45 minutes three times. Only once were they trailing 0-1 at the break What worries me slightly is that game against Goteborg about 30 days ago where they got crushed 8-0, but I'm still going to test this out with a small stake
Just because Najva says it doesn't mean it's actually going to happen. Even if they decide to run out with a B-team lineup, let's be real—Chelsea has hands down the deepest bench in the Premier League this season.
I wouldn't touch Liverpool at 1.65 if I were you... getting them at 2.0 would definitely be a solid find and actual value.
USA vs. Malta, under 2.5 goals @ 2.02 via DraftKings (2:0)
I'm leaning toward the under here. Looking at the Americans' last ten home friendlies, they've hit the under in eight of them—six of those were under 1.5. Their only two overs were a 2-1 loss against Canada and a 3-2 win over Mexico... not exactly a trend of high scoring...
Then you've got Malta. Their stats aren't quite as definitive—they're sitting at 6-3 for the over—but keep in mind they were facing teams like Austria, the Czech Republic, and Germany. Those are significantly tougher squads than what the Americans have been playing lately...
Threatening to go to the press isn't going to do anything... they'll just laugh in your face.
As for JPMorgan Chase, the branch manager practically looked me in the eye and swore there was zero chance I'd ever get approved for an overdraft again. Apparently, since I had just finished paying off my previous one after a year of struggling to clear it, I was "blacklisted." He told me not to worry about it, insisted he was 100% right...
Then, three months later, their system automatically cleared me for a new overdraft at 3:00 AM. Just like that.
You want to know what I got when I filed a formal complaint? "Well, did you put in writing that you didn't want the overdraft? You should have signed the paperwork for that."
How the hell am I supposed to know what I need to sign when the actual bank manager tells me everything is already settled???
Ever since then, no matter what they tell me—I just say, thanks, but can you put that in writing?
Carl Johnson18 said:Man, just imagine where we’d be if people actually put some serious money into this sport... 😲😲😲
I think it would be more accurate to say...
I can't even begin to imagine where things would be if... Get Gobac out of the rotation... Wait, you're seriously pulling that from the sports section...?? 😲😲😲
edit: we’re actually the only squad that failed to break the 100-goal mark during this tournament, finishing at 98... the Danes were right on our heels with 102, and the Poles hit 105 so, if we can just get the offense clicking tomorrow—which, let's be real, just means having more than two guys who don't miss half their shots—the win is basically ours
Roger Phillips said:It’s pretty wild that Mancini is actually giving a shot to a third or fourth stringer like Iscan. Having Ufuk Ceylan just sitting on the bench... they don't even have Muslera or Aykut available today.
Well, Muslera is banged up. Everyone’s known for a couple of days now that he’s out. And honestly, that alone basically guarantees they’ll concede at least one. Without him stepping up to make those crucial saves, this defense is just... a disaster.
Joshua Gomez54 said:. I see people whining about big investments here, but 🤣it's nothing compared to what they pour into it in places like the UK, Australia, or Scandinavia... not to mention how much more obsessed they are with sailing over there.
You’re making bad comparisons—looking at our budget versus other countries and how much they spend? Most people here just want to pump money into sailing while every other small sport is left to rot on its own.
Fine, take a classic example—that kid from Mexico... total golden boy, yet he had to pay for his own training.
" He ended up on the Dream Team solely because of EHF politics. They basically made sure the top scorer—alongside the MVP and best defender—doesn't actually make the tournament's official All-Star squad. If they hadn't rigged it that way, Kiro Lazarov would have been picked over Kopljar instead."
The Danes are better, honestly, but Mexico just won't let them have it...
The Mexicans took the title. Honestly, what an absolute choke by the Mexicans in that final minute... they had a man advantage on the ice, but nobody even had the guts to take a shot on goal. Just total hesitation...

Not gonna happen. You can see the coach already talking about us bidding to host the next European Championship... 😁😁
If we can't win it on the world stage, we'll just have to take it at home. We'll just have to hope we grease the referees' palms a little better this time... and maybe send some better escorts than we did during the last World Cup... 😁
Adam Collins4 said:Watching the Mexico-Denmark game is honestly worth it just for the commentators... they’re completely unhinged. Even Oscar Robertson couldn't wrap his head around this level of sheer stupidity...
Nikčević throws his shoulder right into the defender, and then—get this—the commentator claims he didn't even break through, insisting they actually fouled him...
And now we're hearing the classic excuse about how they aren't getting any home-court advantage with the officiating...🤣
Oh, look at that—now they're calling Doder a Mexican...😂
They're playing against Sweden🙂
Since you're watching anyway, just drop the link so I can tune in too...😁
