    Sportsbook is dead

    No smoking, no food, no drinking, must wear masks. God it's dead. Handle is good but no estatic atmosphere. Boring.

    If smoking was allowed, there was food and drinking and people didn't wear masks it would be dead after two weeks with no chance of the patrons to ever come back.

    with covid and such and the amount of online options, not even counting the legal states and their legal books, it is hard to justify playing at a book's physical location

    Easier to stay home and get all the action one’s heart desires, while enjoying your own food and drink of choice without having to wear a mask

    Excuse me but are we not in a pandemic? Akin to war, or a battle.
    Suck it up and adapt.

    The book would be packed nightly if people could drink, eat and party. I know this to be true. We're a small book, yes, but the atmosphere sucks with covid restrictions, you know that china virus with a .00005 death rate.

    But they'll die ten years before they're supposed to.

    This is not a good trade off.

    Hey! I'm all for smoking, drinking fire water, and eating extremely salt laden processed foods too, but given the choice of that or living ten years longer and disease free, well I choose the latter, not the former.

    I agree. It's not good, but it's what ppl want to do. And the second thing ppl want to do is whine and cry when they die because of their poor choices.

    I take care of myself. Most ppl don't. I just look at it like hey it's your right to kill yourself faster, but don't complain when you die because of your choices. Simple.

    Sitting behind a computer and rubbing the rooster when your refractory period is up has to be miserable life, kids. The good news is you have the ability to change and not be so lonely and miserable, but it does take work....

    Good luck

    The one where they run away from "The General". They have a tracking device on his car to know when to leave in advance before he gets there.

    I nominated the post for your impressive use of the term 'refractory period

    If one didn't study medicine or psychology I would say nine out of ten people are not familiar with that term.

    Well done sir.

    After I read this post I had to think for a second and said to nobody in particular 'Wow"
