Robinhood Prediction Market
I just signed up with Kalshi last week to test it out with a small Ryder cup bet. I like it. I'm hoping they will have individual win markets for PGA tour events next year as that is what I'm primarily interested in. On the football side it was interesting watching the market change in real time watching the Georgia Alabama game Saturday night. I could see where the market approach could overtake the traditional betting sites because of the hedging opportunities but don't see how they would be able to compete with the parlay offerings of those sites.

2025 paid Surly FF League - It's happening. Draft tonight at 10:30 ET/9:30 CT
That did it, thanks. All the other leagues I've been in hasn't used IR so I didn't know how it worked.

It won't give an option to put him in the IR slot. It must be somewhere in the league settings that need to be turned on maybe?

What is the deal with IR? Why can't we move an IR player to IR and pick up another player in the open position?

Fishing Megathread: Looking For Big Girls Who swallow
Finally able to sneak out for two hours middday on Sunday. Hardly been able to fish this Summer but really looking forward to this Fall. The water is already starting to cool a little bit. Not a ton of action but at least able to get one for the grill. Barely legal at 27.5”.

Las Vegas go hard or go home thread
Would rather see Tool than Metallica at Sphere. Tool was the originator of the visual concert experience and it seems like the Sphere would just be phenomenal but you never know if MJK would be for it or against it.

I'm comfortable settling up afterwards but will do whatever everybody wants. Payouts look fine to me.

Even if you don't send out the league invites until later today can you please post the official league settings so we can see scoring and roster requirements?

I’m good. If the draft stays in that spot, you’ll have to bear with me as I have bowling league at that time so I may need a couple of time extensions if timing gets a little wonky.

Galveston
For not great but decent seafood and stuff, Dorados is on the Intercoastal and is an entertaining getaway. Restaurant upstairs and dive bar on the water downstairs.

2025 Hurricane Thread
From the Eyewall: Invest 98L is going to track almost straight northwest over the next 24 to 30 hours. This should come ashore in Texas by Friday evening. Any development will be lower-end and rather disjointed. In other words, we could see a sloppy tropical depression come out of this, but we probably won't see a named storm.

How Is That Chain Still Open?
Jersey Mikes is better. Howevah….I love a JJ’s because it reminds me of my own homemade sammich in high school of one $.99 loaf of Gerland’s (grocery store) fresh french bread and add ham and cheese. That fresh french bread was so damn awesome and JJ is the closest thing to that. One time I saw them actually gouging out the center of the bread before making the sandwich and I said “hold up, put that bread back in there”.
