Baseball Taking a Back Seat to Awesomeness
Not a fun afternoon of football if you’re a Niner fan. Pfffftttttt……
But it’s interesting how we transition from sport to sport, isn’t it? It would be beyond weird to watch a baseball game right now. Hockey doesn’t exist in my life and the NBA has really been a tough go for me to get into this year.
But football, NFL and NCAA, has been about exciting as it gets. I don’t gamble on games but the fantasy side of football is non-stop go-time. It almost made today’s Niner failure tolerable. Well, that’s the wrong word. Fantasy football *distracted* me from the Niner game? That’s better.
For the life of me, I can’t figure out why I’m allowed to gamble on fantasy sports and the horses legally, not to mention any lotto ticket I choose to partake in, but I’m not allowed to play poker online or bet on a football game. I guess it’s that W-2G thing that’s the hang up. If I ran the government, I’d tax cigs, alcohol and gambling winnings at 50%. And I’d allow any and all gambling on the internet. Tax the shit out of those 3 things. Whores too. Problem….still there. But, it would be a start.
Ok, thanks for listening.
A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball 
Thanks for listening? Thanks for expressing your thoughts that I, and many others have, have had, and continue to share. But a 50% tax on alcohol and gambling winnings…?
“That’s totally inappropriate. It’s lewd, lascivious, salacious, outrageous!”
I’m all for allowing it. Not for sin taxes though.
50% tax on Whores?
Well ok in Calif I guess.
Thank god Nevada has no state tax.
Cheaper to bang a whore.
lol, fantastic post
Booze and cigs have been taxed to death. Let the churches run the gambling and prostitution houses and tax the ever loving shit out of them.
