I tried a pick em pool this year, dead last! I am horrible at picking a winner. Probably a good thing I don’t gamble on sports.
Same. I declined this weeks work pickem and deleted my fantasy app.

With the adoption of the gambling industry into the sport, the state of officiating, the violence and injuries, it’s never been IMO a worse time to gamble on the NFL if you’re actually concerned about financial outcomes and not just doing it for fun.
Then again, betting more than you’re happy to lose never made sense to me either.

@mclaincausey I agree with you 100%,but get the feeling that people might be betting more than ever,due to the ease of which it is to make a wager. There have been quite a few times when I've thought that I'm really glad that I don't have that option. Someone out there is going Kaching,and it's not the guy betting $5 that the kicker will miss the field goal.

Betting is like autoerotic asphyxiation. Once you cross that line the regular “game” just isn’t the same anymore.
say what now?

@steelworker ha. Yeah. Guess that one fell kinda flat. I was implying that once you start betting the more simple pleasure of just watching the game becomes hard to enjoy after the increased endorphin rush of winning big on a bet.

@Mizmazzle Took me a long time to be able to watch and enjoy a Horse Race without having any action on it.

@Mizmazzle I got it. Which should surprise no one.

Still waiting on picks from @Alex, @flannel-slut and @october-rust that is if they want to get back in. Otherwise @Matt ,who hates math,doesn’t care that teams are 7-21 after playing the 49ers and hopes the Eagles will make it 8-21. @pmadison95 and me are hoping the Dolphins can topple the Titans,while @scooter and @steelworker are looking to join The Flock with the Ravens over The Rams. @IrishHeart is gong with his Heart and testing the Jinx Theory with Greenbay,as is @SKT with The Chiefs. @Oaktavia wanting no part of the Jinx is marching with The Saints this week. @Twistlock is counting on the Jets to continue NOT scoring touchdowns as they play The Texans,and @Nocturama knows Seahawks don’t do well in San Francisco. And last but certainly not least @Mizmazzle will be screaming from his couch,wearing his lucky socks as The Broncos take on The Chargers. Good luck to all!!!
