what? are you going to bet on George's horse in the derby?

I bet on golf when I'm playing it all the time. Doesn't mean I don't play as hard. I still suck but that's besides the point.

By the way, this is why The Incredibles was such a good movie: "If everyone is Super, then no one is".

i mean i can't concentrate on the greater MLB when the yankees throw me into a tailspin every night.
me, I can't bet on sports that I'm playing for the same reason I never bet on the Yankees: you lose, it's doubly aggravating. And I can't focus as well on the game because of this.
i think it's different you betting on your golf game though because no one's invested $ into you for spectator purposes (as far as I know.)
I get what you're saying though, realize I dont mind steroids as much because I dont think its effects hurt the dynamic of the game as much as gambling, because there will always be a "steroids" equivalent that makes some stats inflated.
