NFL Ping!!!

I know a lot of you guys aren't Lions fans but Jameson Williams was the 12th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, he was available because he was injured and would sit out the 2022 season. He's potentially the fastest wide receiver or player in the NFL. We've been licking our chops to get a look at him. Now we've got to wait 6 more games of suspension before he gets to go. We'll see, hopefully he's not some sort of dumba$$ who can't follow the rules.

Personally, I've seen several people who ruined their lives (went to jail) because of gambling, I don't see the good it does.

Simulated gambling can be done on an air-gapped computer.

Way cheaper than the real thing.

Thanks for the update. I haven’t been following the NFL since the season ended.
Didn’t know about Williams, and the suspension either.
Looking forward to seeing who the Lions draft next weekend.
Holmes has done a good job so far.
I expect a 9 win season. The last 2 years have been fun to watch that’s for sure.
👍

I read a book about the history of gambling in America. It has gone up and down in popularity over our nation's history. The more widespread it becomes, the more people are hurt. Then comes a backlash, and it gets limited again.

Seems to be spreading faster and further this time around. Maybe that's because more people have excess money than times in the past. But, I still believe... it will peak, and there WILL be a pushback. Sometime.
