My portfolio was $1,200 in the red at open today. I did virtually nothing all day (opened a long $CMG position that is losing currently) and I am going to end the day $200 in the black. As @TraderMikeyB would say, long delta UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE🗣️

Yoloing my entire port into Battista Gardens stock. The only thing you're going to regret is that you didn't buy more
How much would a jar of the inaugural batch of @TraderNickyBAT’s Battista Gardens Giardiniera go for on the free market? We’ll take the highest bid 😂 🌶️

JJ McCarthy DISASTERCLASS inbound tonight. He wasn’t a good passer in college, is coming off a year long injury, and it was confirmed that Michigan was cheating the entire time he was there. He hasn’t had to read a defense since high school! 1TD, 2INT, 147 YDS tonight. Book it!

Five years from now: “ESPN is cancelling NFL RedZone after record low viewership numbers” And ESPN execs will act like they have no idea why
Scott Hanson confirms NFL RedZone will contain actual full commercials this season, not just overlay ads. He says the new intro will be “7 Hours of RedZone Football start now!” (via @PatMcAfeeShow)

I’ve been noticing more and more recently that, to Ohio State fans, winning the national championship is the national championship, but to Michigan fans, beating Ohio State is the national championship
