    Anyone else been keeping up with the Big 3?

    I find it most enjoyable. Kinda cool too because I can DVR it on Monday and watch it throughout the week without fear of spoilers. It's so fun though, for real. Check it out if you haven't.

    Couldn't do it, I thought some of the players would be cool to watch and take me back to my Sonics days but I found it boring as hell.

    That's a good question. I haven't even considered betting it because it's so new but something to keep an eye out for for sure

    I guess that brings up another question...has anyone bet on the Big 3? 5 Dimes does have lines up on the games, which go off on Sunday but are aired on Monday on FS1. And if you have dabbled in betting this new league, have you used anything resembling a strategy or have you just gone off feel, your gut, your balls, your vagina, your butthole, etc?

    Why are books allowing you to wager on it LIVE... but it's not even on LIVE TV? WTF is that all about?

    First week... (or first set of games) was on a delay or something? Checked the schedule and the replays were the next day. Figured they were all on a delay? Thanks for the post.

    Bet365 had outright odds for it.

    The games are at a different location every Sunday. First week was in Brooklyn, don't remember the second week but this last week was in Tulsa. I think it's only been three weeks. Little fact for you, the championship was scheduled for August 26 at T-Mobile in Vegas but Mayweather/McGregor worked it out with Ice Cube to get the arena for that date and for him to move. You know Cube got paid on that one.

    Yeah the games aren't broadcast live but the lines are taken down when the game starts. I don't think there's a way to track the games either as of now. Weird I know but remember this is in its infancy and that could always change down the road.

    Haha no idea on the limits but I imagine they're not too high just yet. That's a question I'd be interested in knowing too.

    EDIT: Apparently the games are broadcast live on Sundays now? I'll have to check for myself later but that's what Darkside said.

    That's a good question. Maybe it's a perk for those in attendance haha. OR maybe there's some slick way to track the games that no one's discovered. I know personally I'm not interested in tracking them live as I'm not betting on them (yet) and I like to just watch at my leisure, and I've not had to deal with spoilers since apparently me and Otters are the only two people who are watching

    Otters you're a solid guy. I didn't expect opinions to be so down on this league as I have enjoyed it. Abdul-Rauf got BUCKETS in the last game I watched. You get some cool surprises like that. There's also been several tight contests that required game winners. If more people would open their minds like us, they'd enjoy it

    Oh they are? On Sundays? I guess my DVR only picks up the Monday night airing, or maybe it changed and I didn't realize it.

    Yeah I feel kinda dumb for not reading ahead but whatever, my understanding from before the season started was it was always gonna be delayed but maybe it's not anymore. I'll check my LOCAL LISTINGS later and see

    Games are not on tv live. Recorded, shown Monday. You can stream it online on FS1 and the fox sports go app...not sure if streaming is live or recorded.

    Ah ok. So Darkside was half right.

    So THAT'S how the books know what's going on with these games live. It is not sorcery after all
