    Depends on the importance of the game. If my squad is playing in a big game I most likely go to the bar hoping to celebrate with people.

    Easier to stay focused at home if you are really into it.

    How about for gambling? Some of you a-holes probably get pretty belligerent if your bet loses so the bar is probably a bad move.

            Some people take this shit seriously. Like to analyze it and stuff. If i wanna watch closely I can still do so and enjoy myself.

                Biggest bets I have won have always been in a social setting. Biggest bets I have lost have been at home at the tail end of a tilt spree. Wherever it wins is a good place to watch. With other people is nice though because you don't have to get as consumed by the commercials and can enjoy (funny to call it that) a game.

                  I either watch at home by myself, or attend the game in person.

                  Fortunately for me, my wife is a big sports fan as well. It's kind of our only hobby.

                    Doesn't matter to me.

                    I actualy like hosting. I throw a killer UFC bash.

                    My MMA wagers are usualy in weeks before the fight as getting the best lines is key for profitability in that spot. After the wagers are in, call up the pals and enjoy.

                          It just seems like that because you are on edge.

                            I like watching most games (99%) out with friends......Games I bet on I am fine either way because I usually don't bet too big over my head anyway

                            Any jets or gamecocks football games either at home by myself or only with small group of intelligent fans that won't be pricks and annoy me when shit goes bad

                                  Betting on your favorite sport

                                  what do you consider a large play, and do you bet parlays or straight bets.And do pregame shows in football sway you on a bet.

                                    99% of the time I am calm, win or lose.

                                    Only get beligerent if Niners, Giants, or Warriors lose an important game on pure stupidity

                                    Even during Kyle Williams debacle I was completely calm (more in shock than anything)

                                    Anyway to answer your question I much rather just watching sports by myself or a select few others most of the time...

                                    Im not a big fan of going to sports bars although I hit em up from time to time

                                      I check the scores of the games on my Iphone, so it doesn't matter to me. Only thing is I hate going out and having to check the score of the game/s on my cell cause it kills the battery quickly, plus I like to check the score every minute, so that doesn't help socially in public.

                                        BIGDAY books a play weeks in advance at -200 then tells me to pound the line at -600

                                            I have an Evo with an extended battery, its lasts forever with a ton of usage.

                                            Does iPhone have an extended battery?
