Vegas final day review: Finally had a winning day on the video poker machines. Walked around the Venetian. Went over to the Luxor and checked out Play Playground, which was a GREAT time. My wife and I set the all-time high score on one of their games, no big deal.

Vegas day three review: Watched Charlotte FC at Park MGM's sportsbook. Played at Mandalay Bay where my wife went on an absolute heater. Went to the Neon Museum after dark, which was lovely. Then we moseyed around Fremont and my wife's heater continued. Every game she played was just printing money.

San Jose DNB πŸ’° Seattle DNB βœ–οΈ We move to 1-2, already a better start than last season.

GO TO HELL, ATLANTA #ForTheCrown

I am hereby retracting this statement. Zaha is a Charlotte legend.

Zaha seems to be experiencing the classic Europe-to-MLS learning curve. A tale as old as the league itself.

#ForTheCrown

Today's agenda: Park MGM sportsbook to watch Charlotte FC kick the dogshit out of Atlanta. Probably going to do some more touristy things to minimize casino floor time during the day. Then going downtown to the Neon Museum.

Vegas day two review: had a great time at Boulder Station. Their sportsbook is HUGE and their bar has $1.99 margaritas. Lost my ass off playing video poker back on the Strip. Went to Peter Luger and it was... fine. Service was top notch, and the steak was good but not spectacular.

MLS Saturday Doubleplay San Jose draw no bet @ +110 Seattle draw no bet @ -118 Two road teams playing inferior opponents creates the value here. San Jose's rebuild looks to have been a success so far. RSL has looked BAD in league play and in Champions Cup, Seattle should roll. 0-1 this season. πŸ€

Got to drive the Mach E out to the outskirts of Vegas today. It drives great! Smooth handling, really quick when you stab the gas. The learning curve for the regenerative braking is steeper than I thought it would be.

Today's agenda includes: scouting a few sportsbooks to see where I'd like to watch the Charlotte FC game tomorrow, going to some off-strip casinos to play of some full-pay video poker machines, and dinner reservations at Peter Luger at Caesars.

Vegas day one review: flight was easy. Rented a Mustang Mach-E (more on that later, my wife hasnt let me drive it yet.) Played video poker until the five card blue screen was singed into my retinas. Lost some money but still well under budget.

American Airlines flight 2470. Service to Las Vegas, NV.

All it took for Kyle Larson to figure out superspeedways was for me to fade him in three matchbets today. πŸ™„

βœ–οΈ Starting the season with a miss. No big deal. We started last year 0-4. I might post a Sunday play tomorrow morning.

Zaha out tonight for Charlotte. Congratulations to him and his wife!

🚨 First MLS pick of the 2025 season 🚨 Cincinnati vs NYRB o2.5 goals @ -110 The first few weeks are all about vibes instead of data. I know Lucho is gone, but I'm skeptical of Coronel in goal, especially on the road. Ended last season with a 17-12 record. Starting this year with a fresh slate. πŸ€

Also, it's time to come clean: I gained a significant amount of followers this off-season because I was put on a Seattle Sounders starter pack. (I followed many of y'all back!) But I've been a Charlotte FC fan the whole time. A little awkward with today's matchup, lol.

Happy Gameday, MLS Bluesky! Once again sharing the Charlotte FC starter pack. I've added many more names since I last shared. #ForTheCrown #MLS go.bsky.app/Sy8NkjK

The orange vanilla coke hits. Not as good as the raspberry spiced, but still very good.

That in-car view is absolutely wild. You could see the fear in his eyes when the car went airborne. Unreal.

What a bizarre and horrifying crash. Glad Preece is okay.

So the Presidential Cadillac can't handle the 31 degree banking at Daytona πŸ€” Who knows if that information will ever be useful.

Used a FanDuel profit boost to get Chase Briscoe top 10 at even money. That is one fast Toyota Camry. #nascar #daytona500

DAYTONA

Good reversal of a very soft red there. Yeah the studs were up, but the ball was away before the defender even initiated his slide. #ConcaChampions

Concacaf Champions Cup coverage bumped from FS2 again. This time for Daytona 500 qualifying. ...I'll allow it.

Well, no matter what happens in the second half for the Chiefs, no one is taking a bigger L than Drake tonight lol

Damn, the fix really might be in lmao

Southern Miss alum Swayze Bozeman was activated by the Chiefs for this game. So I guess I'm a Chiefs fan for the next few hours. #SMTTT

With the MLS soccer season upon us, I finally went back and crunched the numbers on my bluesky soccer picks from 2024: 17-12 record overall 38.32 units wagered 4.1 units profit Comes out to 10.69% ROI. Enough to beat the vig; not enough to quit your job for. Looking forward to another fun season!

Absolutely heartbreaking for Cibao. Great goal by Chivas tho. #ConcaChampions

Incredible home atmosphere for Real EstelΓ­. #concachampions

The playing surface for Forge v Monterrey looks *quite* dangerous. Dudes wearing cleats and still slipping like they're on an ice rink.

Coverage just got bumped for Big East basketball... We are already is mid-season form for Concacaf.

CONCACAF Champions Cup is BACK baby!
