This guy sure love to splash money around with teasers, quarter and half bets. I remember the good ole days of whole game point spreads and money lines with a parley card thrown in. I wonder if the infamous Duffle Bag man took a beating when Rutgers beats Sparty?

Could somebody explain to me why supposedly rational people burn their money betting?
45 million unemployed. People denied necessary medical treatment because they can’t afford copays. People losing houses, businesses & life savings.
But yeah, go ahead & demonstrate how incredibly stupid you are.
Why do people still devote time energy & burn money on teams who hate them?

15 years ago I was coughing up $250+ per season for Direct TV season pass. Now I actually didn’t remember it was even football season until noticing this story.

90% of sports is garbage today.

I usually look forward to the end of the elections, just so the commercials will go away.

But Colorado recently legalized sports betting. So now we're bombarded with:

Why would you bet $2.56M to win $2.3M?

They are playing football? I thought it was a “Burn, Loot, & Murder” riot.

One thing I have noticed that I think is quite hilarious is that we as freepers are highly condescending of the "Cancel Culture", as well as infringements on peoples rights to free speech, and we consider people that virtue signal to be morons, etc.

Now bring up the NFL and everyone is virtue signaling how they have not watched a game in X years, or say NFL ... what is that?, or they bitch when someone admits they watch a game and try to shame them.

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it ironic that when it comes to sports, Freepers are just as willing to ignore our constitutional rights and do exactly what we loath from others to our own?
