I quit gambling
I am quitting gambling for now. It takes up too much of my time and I have officially just lost the passion for it. I love sports and will still spend time posting here and there but gambling just isnt for me anymore. I will still gamble from time to time but I honestly cant say when the next time I will place a bet.

Best of luck in the future man. I still look forward to seeing your knowledgeable posts about sports though.

How many posts do I have to get to before I can start busting JJs balls? Nothing worse than Newbies running their pie holes but....Here goes:
Back in a month? Didn't I read you went to a GA meeting a little bit ago? Was it less than a month?

1 month????????????? i give this kid 2 days. it's like saying i quit eating food for life because i'm too fat. how many times have you heard a fat lady say after she is full after a buffet that she's had it, as of tomorrow, no more sweets or fattening things. then the next day, she's stuffing her face in cake..
if i had 10 cents for every time i said, i quit gambling, i'd be richer than donald trump.. nobody can quit, folks. the only people that quit gambling are the people who have no more money and are broke.. then they have no choice but to quit.. and even them, once they have some money again, it's back to gambling.

Wrong. You can't quit because you don't have the willpower to do so. I withdrew all my money from my books over a year ago and I haven't made a bet since. I also got tired of spending hours in front of the computer doing research and placing bets.
Will I ever bet again? Maybe. I might do so for the upcoming NFL season, who knows.

odds you have a bet within 2 weeks -450, after you get rejected by a girl you will again jump into gambling head first to mask your pain.
