Why is the Pit so quiet?

caveatBettor: Why is the Pit so quiet?
a) bulls spending their winnings on destination vacations, with limited internet access
b) bears too depressed to chat
c) calm before NFL starts up
d) all of the above

Silentconqueror: d)

UPDATE:

BUCWILD: E) bitter nk people F) people tired of the provocateurs G) internet gambling concerns

(Note of clarification: I believe the correct application of "bitter nk people" is meant not for the North Korean people, but for the TS customers who bought the missile test contracts).
