Gambling

By traveling out of state, I've played the horses since the 90's. Been to Vegas numerous times, got married there (only bet that paid off). Everybody goes to OK for the casinos.

Everyone that gambles pays a Vig. You pay 110$ to make a hundred dollar bet. The ten bucks is the Vig. The Vig money goes to the establishment and the state.

The machines in Missouri's dollar stores, and bars are not regulated by the state. The Vig goes into campaign funds as far as I can see. Ask your local Missouri house or senate candidate about them.??

Addendum to new free throw rule

I like the new free throw rule but all season I have been thinking about an addendum to the rule. Then I watched the finals of the Clopton tourney tonight and now I'm sure.' The 4th quarter took 30 minutes. One kid shot between 15 and 20 free throws. It was great strategy for the team who was behind except the kid only missed one. The team that was ahead also fouled but it wasn't on purpose. The team that was behind did cut the lead from 12 to 5 but eventually lost. Here is my addendum. After 10 fouls, not only do you shoot 2 FT's but you get the ball back. Apparently there are no intentional fouls anymore so maybe that would end all of the intentional fouls that are not being called.
As a fan myself I do not want to see a free throw contest and kids walking to the line all the time. It may also help the officials.

Understanding ERA Calculator: Seeking Clarification

Hello everyone,

I've been exploring ERA calculators recently, and I must admit, I'm a bit confused about certain aspects. While I understand the basic concept of calculating ERA (Earned Run Average) in baseball,

I'm unsure about some of the finer details, particularly regarding adjustments and variations in different calculators.

Could someone kindly elucidate on how these adjustments are made and what factors might influence them?

Additionally, I'm curious about any recommended ERA calculators or reliable sources where I can learn more about this topic comprehensively.

Any insights or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Class 6 Districts 7 and 8

These look pretty amazing early as it is! OAK PARK is the obvious choice here but watch the other Jewell tourney winner BATTLE closely (saw them in person twice last week was thoroughly impressed).

Scary, scary part is both are JR dominant...............

Both of these districts are beyond loaded. Many potential upsetters (all three CoMo schools look good in D7 plus NKC, Staley (huge rivalry what a game it was last year) and Liberty in D8 on a given night.
