I still can't figure out the embed, but there is the link.  Sounds like poker, and not betting on games.  But debt to the mafia blurs that line quickly.

Truly someone to admire.  No, just a typical spoiled punk...

Chargers -3

This isn’t the same Charger team we expected when the schedule came out. But neither are the Vikings. Chargers have the 3rd ranked passing offense and a mid-tier running game, further weakened by the loss of Harris and Hampton. Defensively, they’re remarkably similar to the Vikings. Vikings rank 7th in pass defense, Chargers 8th. Vikings rank 18th in run defense, Chargers 19th.

I see a bit of a comeback game for Wentz in this one mostly because he should get a little better protection. Tart and Caldwell have been good in the middle for them, but Caldwell’s questionable with an illness and Tart is no Jalen Carter. After trading Bosa, the Chargers are left with a rotation of 36-year-old Khalil Mack, Tuli Tuipulotu and Bud Dupree. The Vikings have seen better edge rushers. Darrisaw and O’Neill win this one.

What concerns me is Justin Herbert. This is the best QB the Vikings have faced this year. With all the inuries to the OL, the Chargers have struggled to protect him but he’s still moving the ball well, on pace for 4,500 yards and 32 TDs. If the Vikings aren’t able to get pressure on Herbert (and he may get Joe Alt back for this one), this could be a loooong Thursday night. Bet the over.

KOC just confirmed Wentz will start Thursday night.

Freakin' hilarious...on Hulu.

Glen Powell is awesome as this geeky, homely but bizarrely talented QB that nobody's heard of looking for redemption, while also playing this arrogant prick of a person who deserved all the hate for blowing the National Championship game years earlier.  It's pretty amazing watching Powell go from one character to the other in the same scenes.  Some big time football dramedy.  Definitely some cringe-worthy OMG funny stuff.

The fifth episode drops today.  I've even watched some of the previous episodes more than once...there are Easter Eggs in there if you look twice (saw one in episode 4).  

Overview
"Chad Powers" is a half-hour comedy series co-created by Glen Powell and Michael Waldron. The show follows Russ Holliday, played by Glen Powell, a once-prominent college quarterback whose career has been derailed due to his misbehavior. To start anew, he disguises himself as Chad Powers and joins a struggling college football team in Southern Georgia.

Inspiration
The character of Chad Powers originated from a prank by former NFL quarterback Eli Manning during his ESPN+ show, Eli's Places. In this sketch, Manning posed as a 41-year-old aspiring college quarterback trying out for the Penn State football team, which laid the groundwork for the series.

Eli and Payton Manning are both listed with Powell and others as Executive Producers.  My hat is off to Powell for feeling comfortable enough in his own skin to make fun of himself as both characters.
