Scorehead only bets when he wins.

I only very rarely do, but that's not so much choice as it is a matter of circumstance.

In olden days, playing the weekend parlay on pro & college football brought some amusement ... got a 7/7 pick once ... the 'establishment' was not pleased, and 'requested' I refrain from playing for a period of time. :lol:

If we're talking about Vegas / bookies, I do not. When I'm in Vegas, I make a few small wagers at the sportsbook...but I don't have a guy and I'm not on Bovada or anything.

I do make wagers with buddies though. FavreFan, where you at?

This...I get into the pot games while bowling (skill), and I'm in the office squares.

Not really, I went to the riverboat casino a lot was I was in college in Dubuque, but that was mostly because it was the only thing open past 10PM that wasn't a bar. Since I didn't drink booze I sat around and pounded free soda all night.

based on how you "predict" the Hawks season I say this is a good idea.

Not even on the golf course?

People occasionally ask "don't you find it makes the game more interesting?" Same with football - never found that to be the case.

Plus, 9 out of 10 NFL conversations I strike up lately are followed by the other person trying to tell me about there fantasy football team(s).

Ugh.

I guess I'm like Michael Jordan - all about the love of the game.

I seem to recall that up until the costume change that she was more or less egging him on, too.

I only gamble at casino or OTB. Casino slightly less than once a month and OTB a couple times a year. I really enjoy the horses or harness but feel I'm wasting my time and money until I learn some handicap skills. Aside from that occasional lottery. So I guess I gamble but just not on sports or with bookies.

When I lived in the QCA I used to hit the casino 1-2 times a month. Online never. Unbelievably they do not have casinos here. They do have a dog track,think I might check it out. I used to do horses when I was younger as my dad was in the business and I learned how to handicap from him. Used to do football a lot when I was younger now as I don't have the money I don't. About the only gambling I do now is lotto.
