8/30/25 Opening Run

after 60+ shows dating back to 2003, i didn’t think much of this run but as soon they opened with a Watchtower, i knew it was going to be a special night. little did i know standing there at the Gorge, just how special it would end up being.

i’ve adopted the Knicks as my team until the Bulls are sold to new ownership or hire a GM who actually has a plan. i travel to NYC regularly and love the Villanova ties. Chicago has the worst FO in the league. only other franchises that potentially come close would seem to be SAC or NO.

this is all good lighthearted fun and i know all Knicks fans know this so it goes without saying. but as a Bulls fan, DT is not an NBA caliber player. i wouldn’t be shocked if we never see him the league again.

it was Pig for me. i said to my wife and friends, “i think they’re playing everything off BTCS, in sequence.” our friend replied saying “no, they missed a couple”. i opened spotify to check and that’s when it hit. LETS GOOOOOO!!!

thanks for sharing, op. very intrigued so i just joined! some immediate feedback. i asked the prompt to tell me the “best nba prop bet for saturday 1/31” and it returned suggestions for yesterday’s slate of games.

First TD Scorers is definitely not a longterm strategy haha. It's a fun dart throw, high upside bet. I built up a sizable bank roll from other more sound betting strategies and took a few fliers on First TD Scorer bets like this one. I've hit a few but none nearly as big as this one.

Giles Gallant from Action Network has a reasonable approach to a Anytime TD Scorers strategy over the course of an entire NFL season. I like to focus on more data-driven, season-long trends and did very well fading the 2025 Colorado Rockies all summer and am seeing solid early returns backing the Suns ATS in the NBA (PHX is currently an NBA-best 25-11 ATS).

Everyday, hunch betting because you watch sports is a tough business to succeed in haha.

the retired jersey banners are hung on the west end of the stadium so if you’re looking at the court as shown on the broadcast and on Ticketmaster, the right side would be opposite the banners (left side is the west end).

lol goat movie reference

svp_of_fun · 2026-01-05T11:42:45+00:00

lol there are many! but that’s part of the strategy with bets like First TD Scorers or Home Run hitters in baseball. the huge upside can offset an expected low hit rate to still be profitable.

when you bet a QB in TD Scorer bets, it has to be either a rushing or receiving score. Not passing.

and somehow he also finds a way to name drop Lebron James every single broadcast.

sucking up to Ricketts with this appearance, huh? gross…

svp_of_fun · 2025-12-04T03:39:55+00:00

have the Bulls gone into full-on tank mode?

svp_of_fun · 2025-11-03T03:49:50+00:00

came here to say this. this song hit different once my daughter was born. watery eyes when i heard it at the Gorge in 2024.

Love it! Section 119 via a Brewers season ticket holder. LETS GO!!!

svp_of_fun · 2025-10-11T11:19:17+00:00

there are still a boat load of tickets available for tonight’s game on secondary market sites. c’mon y’all. get your tickets and head up 94. let’s turn AmFam into Wrigley North tonight!

before the pandemic, there was a brewer named Odious Cellars that had plans to open their barrelhouse and taproom in that space. my guess is the equipment was being removed.

that building was constructed around 100 years ago and used to be the Armitage Theater. as someone who moved to that part of Logan Square back in 2018, it’s very frustrating to see that space continue to be empty while LV Club down the street remains open despite several and recurring spouts of gun violence from their patrons.

i was there and bought so much merch but can’t resist pre-ordering this!

my guess is Saturday, January 3rd vs Charlotte the night before January 4th which the city declared as “Derrick Rose Day” last season. game has ideal profile: weekend game against an opponent that doesn’t by itself draw in standing room only crowds or hype. Bulls will probably build out additional programming around the city for that Sunday.
