Grammy Awards wagering
i can't believe people even bet on this stuff. i know people like betting on odditity type events, but betting on this type of stuff is just for degenerates only.

I think you should wager on what you know best. A firend of mine is the program director for a radio station. If he had a strong feeling on who might win which grammy, I could see him wanting to place a bet on it.
But arandom giuy who opened an account to ebt sports and sees the odds on the grammys or survivor and wants to place a bet. That's a dengerate. Unless it's really money he doens't care about. In whihc case I'd prefer if he'd send his money to me instead  |

I'm not sure how closely this relates but my input is this:
I have gotten to the point where I barely bet on anything based on traditional capping (i.e. - sizing up a match-up and betting based on my opinion). I do a lot of sports betting based on mathematical trends but I have very little time for and interest in handicapping. I probably place about 20 bets a year of that nature - and 2 or 3 of those are usually on the Oscars. I am enough of a movie buff that I could almost be considered an insider. I know the movies and I believe I understand the psychology of the voters. And my results seem to bear that out as I have had good success. It would not be unreasonable to say that the Oscars are my best capping event, better than any sport. So I can easily understand how someone could feel the same about the Grammy's. However IMO the more common scenario is that, as I think we all know, almost all "cappers" lose in the long run - and they're really just kidding themselves when they claim to be significantly more accurate than a coinflip at anything - so betting the Grammy's is really no different than anything else.
