You should have added because it's fun, I won't get rich and if I didn't have some free time I would not do it. But I simply enjoy having an interest on a game.
other......because i would implode and take everyone within 10 square miles around me if i couldnt......its in my bones my blood..........in the last 32 years ive only gone 10 days with no bets......my honeymoon..........other than that every day
The main reason I like to have some $$ on a game is the same reason a lot of people do. It simply makes the games more fun. It's just a shame that the Commish doesn't wake up and realize that a big part of the NFL's popularity is because fans have $$ on the games. Why would I care what happens when the Jags play Tampa Bay ? Perhaps I have a wager on the game or I'm in some sort of contest. Otherwise I'd rather be going fishing or taking in a Movie etc.
