Good for her.
You go girl!
Congratulations to her.

I just read the NFL has a sports betting committee. In addition to their exclusive rights agreement with at least three sports betting platforms. But, Calvin Ridley gets suspended for placing $1500 in bets over five days during a season he isn’t even playing? What a crock of . . .
