Picked this up last week:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/219600/

Not sure if this is making sense to me (don't usually follow sports) but the new preset quick game that loads up each morning appears to be associated with the real game that will take place that night.

If so, all of the team members' attributes have been set true to how they've played over the past year so those who've been better at making shots tend to make more successful shots in the game.

A pretty nifty novelty tool for enthusiasts who are obsessed enough to keep running the turn out of the upcoming game through their imagination.

Probably would be helpful for coaches when game planning vs opponents. Some of that is done to a degree -via statistical analysis of opposing players.

No, I haven't bet on games for quite some time. And even then it was just for pools, group pickems, things like that.

You are allowed to bet legally on kids? Here we are not allowed to bet on kids, just "professional athletes" so we can bet legally on NHL but not say CHL as they are kids.

For the most part betting on any sport privately like in "office pools" is illegal, but it hasn't stopped many and the FBI have other things to focus on.

I don know if college ball counts as "kids" though, Most players are between 18-25 because that is the average age of college students.

Yeah, people do that here too like office pools and stuff with friends but to get a ticket to bet on, here we can't get a ticket to bet for non professional sports is what I mean. I also call them kids and should not as some are in their 20's but its just that because its non professional, I call them kids.

its ok, I've referred to college students as "kids" even when they were older than me, I just wanted to be clear they were not actually technically underage, and I couldn't figure out the hockey comparison.

I don't understand that whole willing moving around on ice thing...

anyway for the most part* all sports bets out side a casino are just as illegal, professional or not.

*Im sure there is one or two states with an exception, because that is how we roll.
