    Signs your bet is going to lose

    Let's hear what you see when you know your bet is going to lose

    Football:

    Guys on your defense keep getting hurt after 9 yard runs on first down

    Basketball:

    Frequent miscommunication as to who is supposed to inbounds the ball when the other team makes a basket when you are down 6 or more

    Baseball:

    Other team keeps leading off the inning with hit or walk when you are already down 2-0

    Baseball: the team you’re against gets a rally going after the first 2 outs and scores 1-2 runs.
    Or your team gets a guy on second or third with no outs and scores no runs

    Football: a drive where the team against you has 3-5 third down conversions in one drive.
    Refs continually throw a flag against your team on third downs

    Hockey: wide open nets are completely missed

    Basketball: the way the fouls are called at the beginning to establish play. Not just regular fouls but the ones that can change the game style

    Two on, two out, 2-2 pitch called balled three that was clearly an inning ending punch out.
    Instead of sitting in the dugout, inning over, now the pitcher has to come in to the batter.

    You can guess the rest.

    Umm? When the team you bet on is losing. That's a pretty good sign.

    It's the middle of the 3rd round and have an MMA fighter to finish the fight, and your guy starts laying a beating on his opponent and drops him, and instead of making the ref stand the beaten fighter up, your guy decides to go the ground with him.

    Yes but don't you notice certain things. The basketball in bounds thing is something I really noticed

    football: your team is close to the endzone and an easy score. somehow they don't get any points, not even a fg, and the other team comes down and scores a td. 14 pt swing.

    You feel like you should live bet and hedge out, wait and boom it’s too late after other team scores.

    Seen that a million times. They get squeezed sometimes twice in an at bat and then its Homerun or double. Always seems to be runners on when this happens too or that's when I notice it.

    When a ref has called 5 straight fouls, penalties against your team... but not 1 on the other team.
