    I believe 70% do. They bet on instinct without really looking into their bets.

        The person who believes their bet will win 100% of the time is the irrational bettor.
        But the person who believes their bet will have from 1% to 99% chance to win is the rational bettor, in other words the open minded critical thinking bettor.

              Most here would have a better chance of winning picking out of a hat then using their theories.

                  You have to consider the source when looking into games, sometimes your gut is the best way to go. How many times has ESPN talked you out of a winning bet? Considering that, I'm going heavy on the Eagles today over the Skins. Should be a blowout.
