Really cool moment tonight postgame after VCU upset UNC. VCU head coach Phil Martelli Jr. made a point to shoutout the student reporters that made the trip.
Lots of great stuff this time of year, but this was a really awesome, genuine exchange.

on a big Super Bowl underdog and longshot parlays. That’s neither representative of the paths that get recreational gamblers into trouble nor a credible individual journey. It’s an author salvaging an article that otherwise lacked a punch line. 2/2

The problem with @mckaycoppins’s piece, which AFAIK he has not addressed, is that his betting strategy actually seemed to be working out sort of OK—until the NFL season was about to end, he needed a good ending for his story, and so he abruptly bet more than half his bankroll 1/2

A pair of ACC entrants did everything they could to give away their games down the stretch. Starting with 10 minutes left:
USF 32 Louisville 15
Cards barely hold on to win.
VCU 33 UNC 14
Heels lose in OT.
A combined 65-29 in crunch time.
Yikes!!!

It's like these leagues are actively *trying* to initiate the great seismic player betting scandal that's just obviously on the precipice of happening in one of these leagues

I remember once I told my son I was being paid by the word and he was like "why would you ever stop writing? Just make it a million words"
hanson o'haver@HansonOHaver
my one tip for the “how can young writers make more money?” discourse is to note that editors will often pay a bonus if you go long. So like, my Gawker contract was $8/word, but I’d often file 2–3 times as many words as initially agreed upon, and they’d bump me up to $10/word
