Things You Hate While Watching Your Game

[V3r1f13d]

V3r1f13d and Nittany both had REALLY good lists. All of those really hit home. One more I would add is people (and I get this a lot) that say they have "inside information on a team, if I ever need any help". WTF is inside information? In any case, stop trying to sound smart, just because they are your home team and you watch their games, you don't have "inside information".

Ya. Especially when it sounds like "my friends dad, has someone at work who said xyz. It's a lock!"

I have inside info with the Angels (know a couple players, and their personal manager), but I almost got into some pretty big trouble once. That was 2 years ago. I will gladly share with this board though. For what its worth half of our starting line up (regular season line up) partied their asses in Vegas and then went straight to spring training in AZ.

When someone (a coworker) who doesnt gamble at all, takes unnecessary interest in your hobby and asks "who are you gonna bet on this weekend", and you tell him who and when monday comes along, and you hit your play, he still has the nuts to say, "ahh you got lucky".

When your buddy looks at you and asks "So what does the over mean again?".

That is why I left my last girlfriend the bitch would cheer for the other team I could not take that **** and kicked her ass out.

I Hate listening to the announcers period.... I can figure out who they bet on, just by the stupid things they say.... :toss:

There is absolutely nothing wrong with pissing off your porch or deck. ;)

Thank God for Tivo....cause I used to hate having to run down the hallway to drain the main vein, it was shorter to just run out on the porch....LMAO

What do I hate now....
Women who try and talk over the play by play
Same as S&B...kids who violate the no fly zone
and replays 60 times over on the same play, get over it, it happened already!:nuts:

A few from me:


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.


There's more, but I just got really angry listing those LMAO :nuts:

LMAO Nittany! I love it when they ask the same question week after week!!!
Why the hell are they gambling!!!! LMFAO!

Oh Oh!! I have one more! The good friend who calls you to have you put a bet in for em and they just tell you to put the same in that you have!! Hell he doesn't even know what I'm betting on!!!!! It's real hard not to tell him I lost when I hit!! I guess just too honest.

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?

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.

[xHeroOfTheDayx]

i hate it when somebody knows you have money riding on the game and they spend the entire game talking about how they cant believe you put money on whichever team you did....if there such experts, why didnt they place there own wager!!

you nailed that one! Thats happened wayyyyyyyy too often!
