    Interesting business idea maybe??
    I was speaking with my buddy and we came up with maybe a good business idea?

    Basically it's a sports score service, but catering to gamblers who sit there during dinner always on their phone checking how many points + Rebs shaq has cause they took that prop.

    What about a service that keeps u updated on any prop you bet?customize when/how you want the alerts. Customized alerts on over unders that don't just give the score, but break down how many points you need to cover, chances of a cover, and a tool that will give you live update on % chance it will hit, and based on 2nd half lines if you should take a hedge, a middle shot, and so on. I know programers, I know math guys, I have all the resources to get something like this in motion.

    These are just rough ideas hatched over the last 2 days.

    Can this idea see the light or you think it's goofy?

      Like I said it's a very rough idea. I'm kind of on the fence about it

          - Any of you have technical expertise?
          - How are you going to make money? advertisements or affiliate? (they ARE different)
          - Are you going to leech/use another site's feed? if so, how is this done?
          - Do you have enough to money to maintain the site unprofitably for the first 12 months?
          - How serious are you and your partner? how serious is your partner?
          - Keep thinking business. I like it.

          Don't have to answer these here, just think about them. If you decide to get it set up let me know maybe I'll invest some.

            Ya that pretty much what I was thinking, I think it'd be a great idea but I don't think it's very sellable

                        Mr. Walker said his tech guys are running into some points and hurdles regarding cheating and collusion and that is what's holding it off. I know for a fact they are working on it right now, just gotta wake them up from time to time before they decide to rest back on their lazy asses. Don't worry, I'm still following on on this

                                  who the fukk would pay to have you do basic arithmetic for them.

                                  Had Saints +4?

                                      That explains why you want the points poker. What do you plan to order from the SBR Store when you collect everyone else's points.

                                        I still play(ed) for real money. Half professionally actually. Gambling WITHIN Israel is forbidden, gambling on the internet isn't. It's the kind of gray area we all like Pavy.

                                          Gambling is also illegal here for the most part, but we all do it of course. Is it like that in Israel? Just look the other way kind of deal. Or does the government actually get actively involved in what grown men decide to do with their extra money? Just curious, how are their drug policies there?

                                          I like to think that most nations that have a clue on how to run a government does it better than the US. But Israel is the youngest of countries, plus I'd say they are as bad as the US in letting policy be determined by invisible people in the sky. That's very dangerous.
