So @penguinoftroy.bsky.social has confessed to me that she thinks In-N-Out fries are vastly superior to McDonalds fries.

one thing i'm hoping we can not do on this platform is post like "ooooh, what a scandal, now over to commercial brought to you by fanduel!" at no point in sports history was it cool for athletes to do anything like what is being discussed here. it's one of sports leagues' rare consistencies
Exclusive: NBA player Terry Rozier has been investigated by federal prosecutors over whether he manipulated his performance as part of an illegal sports betting scheme

The gambling ring accused of conspiring with Jontay Porter to manipulate his performance in NBA games also bet heavily against Rozier in a 2023 game for the Hornets.
