Ha! I breathe defiance to thine ears oh Irrelevant one!

From wikerpedia en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambling

"Gambling is the wagering of money or something of material value (referred to as "the stakes") on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary intent of winning additional money and/or material goods. Gambling thus requires three elements be present: consideration, chance and prize"

Since this friendly contest requires no "consideration" or "stakes" element, it is hence therefore not gambling... my fair misinformed gorbellied tardy-gaited horn-beast! Be not lost so poorly in your thoughts! Begone you whoreson mandrake, thou art not fit enough to wait at my heels. Were I like thee I'd throw away myself. :)

Thank you SO much Renegade! I was out running around selling Tourism Map ads all day today and I totally appreciate you getting to this. You rock!

I remembered while listening to the games yesterday (and realizing I wasn't going to do so well) that the first week was rough last year too, since the teams have to settle into their comfort zone with each of their teammates, and we have to get used to how good/bad they are this year, not how good/bad they were last year. Learning curves are so much fun. Not. :)

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

It was fun. Had no idea what I was doing and now I think I get the picture after reviewing the wins, losses, ties. Still guessing as there are so many factors to consider.
