  1. I never understand why they insist on having pyrotechnics in indoor stadiums. It’s thick as pea soup in Reliant.
  2. Matchups. 2 lefties coming up
  3. Also Hunter and Josh. No Framber is a travesty.
  4. As he should. Dangerous move.
  5. Those teams that went to slicks pre-race screwed up. All the early yellows take away any advantage before more rain moves in.
  6. I really like racing in ever-changing conditions like this. The timing on tire strategy is always interesting.
  7. Another series win. Let’s sweep their ass.
  8. How can you hear over all the pointless Ohtani talk? TBH. I’m happy he’s leading off in a 2 run game.
  9. Ball boy trailing the play
  10. ^^^ Same with other big brands like B&J and Haagen Dazs. They push the hell out of Creamy Creations.
  11. Espada said it was a rest day. No mention of injury.
  12. It’s the Bulls pick in 26 and Kings in 29
  13. He’s heavily involved in motor sports, both as a driver and owner of a motorcycle company.
  14. I’m jealous
  15. We haven’t lost a series since May 21. A couple of ties but no losses.
  16. Proposed Change: Cap on Deductions: The proposed change would limit the amount of gambling losses that can be deducted to 90% of a gambler's winnings. Impact: This means that even if a gambler wins and loses the exact same amount in a year, they would still have to pay taxes on 10% of their winnings, effectively creating "phantom income". Affects Itemizers: This change would primarily affect gamblers who itemize their deductions on Schedule A of their tax return. Current Rules (before the proposed changes): Deductible Up to Winnings: Currently, gamblers who itemize can deduct their losses up to the amount of their winnings, meaning they generally don't owe additional taxes if their losses equal or exceed their winnings. Requires Itemizing: To deduct losses, gamblers must itemize deductions on Schedule A and keep detailed records of their wins and losses. Why the Proposed Change Matters: Impact on Gamblers: Professional and high-volume gamblers, in particular, could face significantly higher tax bills under the proposed system. Potential for "Phantom Income": Even if a gambler's net income from gambling is zero or a loss, they could still face a tax liability. Industry Concern: This proposed change has raised concerns within the gaming industry, including worries about its impact on businesses and jobs.
  17. We’re 13th in BA with RISP
  18. Per my understanding, it’s actually worse than that. You can only claim losses up to 90% of your winnings. If you have 100k in tournament winnings but have 200k in entry costs, you can only claim 90K in losses for tax purposes. So taxes have to be paid on 10k even though you are a net loser.
  19. Per Fan Duel, the Rockets are tied with Denver for the 2nd best odds to win the championship at +800
