I've learned to never bet on my teams, only against them... Nothing worse than losing money and having your team lose

I'd never bet against my team. Who wants to be in a position where you profit if your team loses? If you can't bet on 'em to win, then you should leave 'em out when you bet.

I have learned to never bet on or against my team, unless there are extreme circumstances.

Many years ago for example UNC played Louisville in football, it was the year Lefors was there and UL was 11-1.  UL was one of my darlings for that season and in this particular game the odds were really low, I think UNC was +4 and it was totally absurd.  Put a grand on UL and they won 34-0.

I also remember one season I bet against the Sox in a couple of parlays when they were facing a left handed pitcher.  Have also won on my team a couple of times.  I am probably 90% when my team is involved only because I only bet on/against them when the line is so patently absurd that my bias is not pushing me.

I made the same bet weeks ago....I'm surpirsed the line hasn't moved after KB's injury.

 

interesting point. In my degenerate experience only qb injuries significantly move game lines or win loss over unders. Something to consider re: kb

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      I turned to the NFL Network and they are playing the Wildcard Game against the Rams I think we gained a lot of respect around the league we hung in there for a while into the 4th Quarter 🙂

      Does anyone know for sure if the game tonite will be on HBO max?  That is where I watched the last one and only access I currently have- I am in SE NC and no broadcast stations carry the games.😖

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By bandu · Posted

      take a  look around the league at other young Qb's such as Drake Maye , Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix , CJ Stroud  & Caleb Williams who at the time like Bryce Young they also were drafted by teams with a losing record .the only difference with these Qb's is after joining their teams with a losing record they led those same teams to a winning record in a very short period of time .it's simply what you call a game changer & or elite Qb's & then take a  look at  the other side of the coin you have Qb's such as Trey Lance, Zach Wilson, Mac Jones, Justin Fields  & Anthony Richardson also like Bryce Young all first round picks who instead of winning either did not play or led their teams to a losing record while playing  Bryce Young who has an overall record of 14-30 & wildly inconsistent & never in the history of the NFL has a Qb 5'10" or shorter had a successful carrer as Qb in the NFL  if anything history is telling you exactly what ?..just saying
