You might have a gambling problem if...

[Clem D]

I got depressed thinking about the madjacker who decided to check out and cashed in his chips and got on line for the surf and turf buffet in the sky. The only way I get through depressing times is to laugh about it. I remember a thread a few years ago in here that was pretty funny along the same lines. So with are fallen brother in mind lets try and remember that gambling on sports is supposed to be fun. When it stops being funSTOP!!!!!!


With that in mind feel free to add to this list.


You might have a gambling problem if...

1) You bet on Spring Training Baseball
2) You bet on the Pro Bowl
3) Your bookie was at your wedding
4) You went to your grandmothers funeral and a card game broke out.

#25. You have the scoreline on speed dial, in case you are out.

#26. On a first date, there are awkard times you have to excuse yourself to "go to the bathroom." Meanwhile, you're asking your server where the nearest pay phone is....furthermore, throughout the meal; which you have conveniently placed yourself so you have view of the tv, or at least the bottom line; you keep looking up...to the point where she eventually looks behind her, to see no one there, ever.
