Sports Betting

What are your thoughts on betting on sports?

Personally, I don't think it needs to be done. Some people treat it like a game (sure, some can argue it is), but it's real money! People get so addicted to sports betting and spend more money than they realize they are spending. It's something I think needs to be stopped and put to an end. Another solution would to have limits $50 a day or something around that to prevent people from going over board, I have friends who do it when they're drunk and let's say they don't make the smartest choices in that regard.

I love to make small friendly wagers with my friends and family. But when it comes to betting large amounts? I'll pass. Those people don't even enjoy the sport. They just see it as a way to make quick money. But often they end up losing money in the end.

I always bet on the big games. Like the superbowl and the stanely cup championships.
