Usually.
First year in a long time I'm down.

I make money playing fantasy football so I'm counting that as a "yes".

Okay, we may get some winners if we're including fantasy football. I can't imagine that more than one or two percent of people make money on the football gambling sites.

Sports gambling becomes legal in Missouri on December 1st. So by this time next year I think most of us expect to have made our first million. (Assuming Vegas still will let us bet on the Threepeat.)

A sure way to get rich is to bet on the Chiefs to win while also betting on their opponent to cover the spread.

You need to ask a few more questions:
If up- how much and wh h team has been a bonanza for you? If down - how much and what team has been the worst on you? |

Yes. Two leg parlays has been my sweet spot. Love player props way more than spreads. Spreads are way too sharp with huge $ professional gamblers making sure every line is exactly right.
I begrudgingly take unders but it is unfortunately a really good way to win |

This also serves as a poll on the extent of self-denial.
I make money by not gambling on sports.

I only gamble in Dartgod's gambling challenge which makes it apparent I suck so bad at it putting real money on the line would be the same as throwing it in my burn barrel.

I find the NFL impossible to beat in the long run. Too few games, too many eyeballs on em.
Proud to report that I have been long term profitable on MLB and back in my day I would squeak out small profit on college football. The NFL ain't easy though. |

MLB seems like it would be tough.
