The bill had been approved by the Senate and moved to the Chamber of Deputies —the Argentine Congress’ lower house—, where some amendments were introduced, and thus, was sent back…

The Philadelphia 76ers have spent the last five seasons building their team and assembling a cast that put them back in relevancy. Now, they look to back up that team with a management team that will make it work. The Sixers drafted Joel Embiid in 2014, then Ben Simmmons in 2016. They faltered with Markelle Fultz in 2017 but have done more than enough moves to surround Embiid and Simmons with a legit supporting cast. But after making the second round in each of the previous two seasons, Philly’s 2019-20 playoff campaign ended after just five games. ESPN story on…
Oddsmakers have been steady in their belief that Joe Biden will win the 2020 presidential election. Despite the fact that Donald Trump has spent the majority of his presidency as the odds-on favorite to win re-election, Biden has since surpassed the incumbent at just about every political betting site you’ll find. Of course, it doesn’t take a great memory to recall that Trump was a massive underdog back in 2016 when he shocked the world by knocking off Hillary Clinton on Election Night. Trump’s odds to win in 2020 won’t be quite as long as his odds were back then,…

As a child, NASCAR was barely on my radar. I knew of a few stars at the time, like Cale Yarborough and Dale Earnhardt, but I didn’t pay much attention to it. As an adult, I enjoy watching NASCAR. I enjoy betting on it too. Many times, I’ll find myself at a motor speedway hanging among friends who’ve been camping out at the track for most of the week and making friendly wagers with them. At least, when I can make it out to the racetrack. But a lot of the time, I’m betting with sportsbooks or at the best…
