To preface, I really don't like baseball. I played til I was 17 yrs old. I liked it then, don't like it now. So, for sports, this time of the year is torture for me.
But because I get horribly bored, I experiment with betting on baseball (very small bets, like 5 bucks, fyi). Every year it's the same fucking results.
Example: I play a 9.5 over, the score is 3. I play a 7 under, the score is 15.
What
THEE fuck!???
How the fuck do you handicap this? In my opinion, you can't. In football or basketball, I can dissect a game, see where I went wrong, etc. But baseball?? It's a joke to even try.
In my opinion, it's like betting a NFL total of 44 and final is 14. Gentleman, that doesn't happen (often).
I know some of you guys look at the baseball season as a whole and are in it for the long haul. But I don't gamble like that. I want to be able to pick my spots, make my play on one big game. You can't do that during the regular season in baseball (I can't, anyway).
I'm glad work has picked up and I have more things to do nowadays, rather than waste my time and money betting on baseball. Good fucking god.
