Pete Rose bet on sports, but not against his own team, and banned from the Hall of Fame. Every Astros player who was aware of the cheating during the World Series should be blocked from the Hall of Fame. Betting is worse than blatant cheating?

@HoopMixOnly 💪 not strong enough. same reason the Williams sisters got beat by a tennis journeyman, why US women’s soccer got beat by high school boys and almost any Olympic record by a female is maybe top 50 vs a men’s record. she is bad ass, would school me and 95% of men, but best of

Don't base your bets on what an old timer or book from 20 years ago says is sharp or square. Double digit favorites in the NFL? Square right? The past 5 years double digit NFL favorites are 63% vs the spread for an overall record of 62-36-3!
