Dave Portnoy places 600k bet on UConn

Dinging you for casually promoting incorrect use of the leading adverb in the second sentence, with or without the missing comma.

Tbh, I felt some 'need' to find an exception to Liking all the posts in this thread, though it's fun trivia if it's true that he bought the most expensive house ever in Natucket. I'm not going to fact check it; I'll take your word for it. And I'd have given it a Like if that were your whole comment.

I like this thread, but more akin to the counsel below:

"Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer."

It's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it.

Well, he bet on Michigan to win in football too if that helps anyone feel better.

You may already know this, but He's Wolverine alum.

Yep. I once scoured a parking lot when I lost a penny. Found a nickel and still looked for that sucker.

you ever crawl a shag carpet at 6:30 am thinking every white piece of whatever was a tiny bit of crack you dropped?

I don't know how this works but what happens if you place $5k on each

I think you either net out $15k or $12.5 million, but my answer might reveal why it's wise that I don't bet.

The only other option that occurs to me is that you lose $10k, because the two bets shown are not for Friday's head-to-head game result, but for who wins the entire tournament. Hmm.

Turns out that, "No" IS a complete sentence.

Dave portnoy thinking we're the best team is a real "heartbreaking, the worst person you know just made a great point"

I thank him for this, because as devastated as I would be after a loss, I now will be able to find the tiniest sliver of a silver lining in it.

That’s the truth. And it’s not like Barstool is that great (save for Sundae Convention)

You are correct, it was for the tournament champion. I don't gamble and with very good reason.

Let's hope he has no reason to complain.

Portnoy bets 600k on us.

Portnoy is a huge Swiftie.

You never listen to me. This is all coming together.

I once dropped an orange micro dot on a white shag rug. Took me an hour to find it. It was well worth it.
