Do you bet against your team?
Got into a debate at work this week over sports betting. Long story short, I put some money down against the team I'm cheering for (and always will cheer for). To most other people in the office that apparently makes me a bad fan. My argument is I watch sports to cheer for my team. I bet on sports to make money. I don't think the two are or should be related. Bet with your head, not your heart.
So what's the verdict for any of you sports bettors? Do you pick who you think will win? Do you bet against your team if you think they don't stand a chance? Do you avoid betting on your team at all?
