Bet On It

If you are like me you love sports... all kinds of sports. Football may be my first choice but I'll watch pretty much any sporting event: hockey, basketball, baseball, curling. Hell if I get desperate enough I will watch things like soccer, tennis and horse racing. And as soon as I can figure out what the hell cricket is all about, you can be sure I'll be trying to start a fantasy cricket league.

Aside from alcohol, there are few things in life that go with sports as well as gambling on sports... it's just advised you avoid gambling on leagues you play in. For some reason that is a bigger offense than cheating in the game itself. I'm going to guess most of you have played Sports Select which is the usual starting place. But we now live in a digital world and that means that like most things, sports-related gambling has moved to the internet. And as a result has morphed into a billion dollar industry worldwide.

The opportunities and options when it comes to sports betting have never been greater. So there is no better time to start betting on football with best odds. Speaking from personal experience there is no better way to add excitement (and cursing) to watching a game than having a financial stake in the outcome. It can make a great game even better and a game you'd never watch under normal conditions "must-see" TV.

If you need help making sense of all the gambling related lingo, there are resources out there that can help. Sports betting is a risky venture but the potential rewards are there for those willing to take on the risk.
