Different forms of Both Teams To Score Bets

Doing your research will give you needed knowledge.

(SALEM, Ore.) - After the basic ‘match result’ market, betting on Both Teams To Score bets are one of the most favourable. The primary version of this doesn’t affect what the final score is, how many goals there are or which side wins, as long as both teams score at least one goal each, meaning there needs to be a minimum scoreline of 1-1 by the time the games reached the full ninety minutes.

As there’s far less at stake and plenty more time for your bet to land, BTTS bets are arguably even more worth doing than match result bets.

Open Letter to Dick Cheney

Torture is illegal under the Geneva Conventions, and redefining it does not make it legal.

(SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.) - Mr. former Vice President— or Dick, if you don’t mind — I was greatly disturbed to hear that you endorsed Gina Haspel or “Bloody Gina” as she has been affectionately called, for Director of the CIA, and your call to restart the use of torture, or as you once euphemistically called torture, “enhanced interrogation techniques.”

Shame on you Dick, torture is never justifiable.
