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

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.

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.

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.

What I like about it is that there are about 15 games DAILY for six months, so if you can find some small edge, you can really go after it. NFL, even if you're Nostradamus, you have one game a week on average and only for a few months.
Doesn't stop me from taking Ls though LOL TLO! |

Haven't tried the sports betting apps yet, it would be hard to stay up based on volumes.
I always see some random ass parlay post where 5 bucks is gonna win them 50k but I figure those are mostly bullshit 1 offs |
