    Football is the worst sport to bet.
    Too many games happening all at once on the same days.

    Baseball, basketball and hockey so much easier to win consistently and make money with games everyday.

      I agree IMO that football sucks to bet. I do bet some games from time to time but usually stay away as if the QB get taken out of the game, your bet is usually screwed.

        I know, I still prefer sports with more games and longer seasons so I can make money everyday with smaller wagers.

        One bad week of football can hurt.

          I wish they'd at least spread the games out over the week.

                        I can't wait for Thursday Night Games. 3 Games a week is do-able. It's tough waiting for Sunday and Monday to come around when it's Tuesday and Wednesday.

                                Love football season. Weirdly I do well on the games I'm unsure of but the games I think I've got figured out cold seem to turn. Thought you were doing really well Blocker-at one point anyways.

                                  No worst sport to bet is one on one sports such as tennis,boxing etc where if you are injured you have no replacement or soccer where you can tie. Also Hockey can tie so your logic of them being easier is flawed. Better to bet on sports where someone wins and loses.

                                    One of better ways to bet football is just take underdogs especially national tv games

                                      Personally, I'd say (best to worst) - to bet on are:

                                      Basketball
                                      Football
                                      Baseball
                                      Hockey

                                            Easiest sport to make money on is baseball, than hockey.... basketball and finally football.

                                            Add cricket to easiest, if u know anything about it. You can make a killing.

                                              Man hockey sucks to bet on because you can tie. Also how can you get good betting cricket?Thanks

                                                Its a lot easier making money during pre-season than the reg. season IMO.

                                                  Gotta wait all week for these damn games and hardly anything worth betting. Can make more in a month of baseball than a whole season of football.
