Jaguars release OFT-Injured WR Marqise Lee

The Jacksonville Jaguars are parting ways with wide receiver Marqise Lee, the team informed Monday. Lee battled injuries throughout his career and never became the game-changing player the team hoped he would be when he was drafted in the second round in 2014. Lee, who turned 28 in November, is due to make $6.25 million in base salary and count $8.75 million against the salary cap in 2020, but the emergence of DJ Chark along with veteran Chris Conley made Lee expendable. The Jaguars save $5.25 million with the move, but they also absorb $3.5 million in dead money. Jacksonville […]

Casino Games with Best Payout

This article is concerned with the theoretical payout, which is in essence a long term estimate – in an infinite number of hands – of how much money you’ll get to keep or how much of your money will the casino keep. A perfect game would be a 100% payout and a 0% house edge, which would mean you can play the game infinitely without losing any money. If the game has a 99% payout and a 1% house edge, that means that if you play the game for a very long time you’d lose 1% of all the money […]

Because I own my stallions outright and don’t have shareholder responsibilities, I […]
