Draft Kings

[JohnnySavage]

So the commercials sucked me in, because I'm a fool for being courted. I signed up and threw $10 to the wind. I hope I'm better at weekly fantasy football than I am season-long fantasy football.

Anyone else play on Draft Kings?

The commercials have helped turn me off football in general.

I hope Draft Kings and Fan Duel die of gonorrhea and rot in Hell.

Not me. But I want to me some of these weekly millionaires who are still wearing ratty t-shirts.

What are you paid off with? Bitcoin? "Koo-pens?"

I'll let you know if I win

The "account" page says you are paid in the same manner in which you made your deposit. In my case, PayPal.

Big money in the commercials. They make it seem like all you have to do is sign up and you get free money. Sorta wonder if they're owned by the same parent company.

Draft Kings is owned by Disney....and you can trace the other one to the Koch Bros. sadly.

Exactly. It seems every 2 minutes I get hit with a commercial or ad for one or the other.

starting fires with skewed mistruth?

 

[RjThoughts]

I wonder if Draft Kings site tells people that their winnings are subject to Federal and (if applicable) state taxes.

What is to prevent Draft Kings from making 10000 shill accounts each with different lineups in order that they always have at least one winner? That would take about 30 minutes of code and 5 minutes on Tor.

So it would be the same as using Ashley Madison to find a woman?

I can see how this would work, to be honest.

No one would question it unless they are hacked and the truth comes out.

You have shenanigans going on with every business. Like stores at the mall that raise their prices 50% then have a 20% off sale.

Or furniture companies that are always having a going out of business sale.

Or Mega Banks that issue a "sell" recommendation on a stock, then when the market moves in response, they swoop in and buy up the same stock on the cheap.

People suck and knowing that is the first step toward a path of happiness.

If handing them your money makes you happy, more power to ya.

We have a retailer, Kohl's, that I swear if you buy 3 bath rungs, a pair of Levis and a couple pillows, somehow at check out it's, "Thanks for shopping at Kohl's, Luk. You saved $eleventybillon today!"

Yea but you are earning Khol bucks!

You cannot resist that!

Yay! Everyfuckingday with that email. The shitty thing is I have to go there today to pick up a few bath rugs for my mom.

Kohls honors sale coupons on top of their sale items. It's one of the only stores that does that. I love when my total saved is larger than my actual bill.

Kohls.

I suppose it's a good place to purchase horse towels and hound wipes. Not so much for clothing I'd wear.

 

[ms_ann_thrope]

They have Skechers.

At the end of the early games, I'm 29th out of 34. I don't think I'm going to win a million dollars.

 

[thør]

I figured that Draft Kings was a thread about drinking beer.

 

[JohnnySavage]

Dead last and all my players have played.

I think it's rigged.
