Is it me or are they using 12" monitors. Great for eyesight

The 3rd picture from the top is amazing. I would go blind if I had to sit there for 8 hours a day looking at those.

As for staff, Bill has said before that most of the time these pictures are taken at off hours, so that might explain it.

lol, can we give Natrass SBR comedian title?

As you guys can see from our photo album, these shoots are taking place during the 'off' times of baseball season. We are going to try to stop by for shots of the pandemonium during foots.

But more importantly: Does anyone have any feedback on this book?

Looks fine to me.

Aden, how would Actionbets relate to US bettors if the anti-internet gambling initiative became law?

Well, we did let SBR come in to take the pictures. It's not like some clerk took the pictures behind our back and then sold them to SBR or something.

I personally think it's a good way to get our name out there. Sometimes the distance between the players and the books give the whole situation an impersonal feel to things. The pictures just let everybody know that we're just normal people in a normal office just going about our things just like everybody else.

We we're happy to let people know who we are. We have nothing to hide.

The only ones that seem to be displeased are the ones that lucked out because it was Little Missy's day off. I already checked with her, and don't yet have a date on a photo shoot for her. Will keep you updated.

Haven't really heard it commented in the office. You see, regardless of what US says or does, we are still out of their jurisdiction.

As for the ban itself, in my personal opinion, this is just going to be another Napster-type of law. How many companies like Napster actually got busted? Only Napster did and as soon as Napster went down a hundred new companies came up. You can still download all your stuff free online. How may people who downloaded music illegaly get busted? Only a few high school teenagers that Pepsi ended up saving anyways by paying their ridiculous fines.

I feel this is what's going to happen with this law. The US government will bust a literal handful of people just to "make an example" and they will make sure the media over-blows it to scare you off. But trust me a $10 million per year budget is not even close to enough to monitor a couple hundred million people to see if they are betting online. Regulating online activity is just extremely expensive and extremely difficult. You're not going to manager it with $10 million.

IMO Business will go on as usual. I haven't heard a single person down here worrying about it. We don't even give it thought.

Well those pics helped me with my decision to play at actionbets or not, i think the office looks good. Its a smaller book, but you can see its well organized.

I would say it cant be wrong to post such pics.
