A few from me:

1) Watching it with someone and them insisting that you bet on it after your favorite team loses. Just because they're my favorite team doesn't mean I lay bank on them every time they trot out there.

2) I agree on the person calling you dumb for betting on a game after it's over. They usually say "You're such an idiot, that was so obvious!" If it was so MF'n obvious, why wasn't your action on the other side?

3) This applies to everyday life, not just watching the game, but people who are grown men that still don't understand how a point spread works. The + means they are GETTING POINTS and the - means they are LAYING POINTS, how FK'N hard is that to grasp? I knew what the hell these things meant when I was 12 years old and some grown men still can't grasp the concept.

4) The person who asks you for advice on a game, places the bet, and then gets furious at you for picking the wrong side. This is a main reason I don't give close friends advice anymore, because I'm not about to lose a good friend over a $100 bet or something insane like that. Don't get mad at me because you can't pick your own games.

5) People who purposely root against you and/or rub it in when your team loses. The sting of losing hurts bad enough, I don't need some know-it-all clown rubbing it in. This is more for the sports bar type atmosphere when there are drunk idiots that still think a player is a god if he is featured on ESPN and don't have a mind of their own.

6) (LMAO, I just can't stay away, everytime I click out of here I think of a new one). People who don't gamble but are absolutely enthralled with your every bet. They are always asking you who you're on, how much you bet, etc. I don't do it to entertain you, I do it because it's a hobby of mine and none of your business.
There's more, but I just got really angry listing those LMAO
