Default Superbowl , \'meh\'.

Sigh, it's that time again when I realise just how much betting sports has taken out of watching sports. Even as a (non-typical I must add) Brit, this has been either the #1 event, or close to it, on my yearly sporting calendar for some time now but I simply can't get into it.

I've noticed that my interest in who wins and loses events has decreased year on year as the amount of time and money I spend betting on sports has increased.

All I can think about is what I'm going to do in the spare time I used looking at games this season. It's a bit early for baseball, basketball is too time intensive (I'll just arb k thks) I can't even be bothered to cap this one. Bears +4 looks right to me I think that Grossman has had it tough in the media and is only half as bad as people think he is with an appropriate gameplan. If they need him late on then he'll be exposed. Did I say something new yet? Nope, everyone has exhausted every avenue, I can't be bothered.

I'll probably end up betting the Bears +7 but I'll be more interested in them winning so I can profit than caring which team wins for any other reason [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Still, it beats working and not seeing the game at all. Go Bears.

i could care less who wins when an nfl game involves 31 out of 32 teams...and the browns lose every week anyway!!

sounds like a bit of seasonal depression...spring's coming soon, hang in there!!

i was playing poker the other day and asked a guy dressed in bears gear if he was betting a lot on the game. we got to talking about sports betting a little - i said i mainly focused on college football during the fall - and he asked me who i had been on in the national championship game. i couldn't remember. i stumbled back and forth, first thinking i had florida, then ohio state, then, oh, forget it.

i didn't know if the table thought i was full of crap because of this, or the real thing.

Just FWIW I think it will go under because I think the Bears are going to try to keep the ball away from the Colts 'O' AND from Grossman.
