Default Anyone not betting the superbowl today?

It seems like everyone bets on the superbowl no matter who's playing or not. I'm curious if anyone is not going to be betting on this game. If so i'm wondering there reasoning?

I'm not betting. Why?
1) I'm Italian
2) I bet only on statistical data
3) Statistical data don't work on champioship match (NFL, baseball, basketball, hockey, soccer, handball and so on)
4) So, I'm away from every championship match

Today I made many many withdrawals : I zeroed all my bookies account, tranferring $$ to Neteller and quickly from Neteller to my real Bank.

I don't feel very well about bookies after superbowl....

I havent bet it as of yet. Really considering on not betting the game. I dont have to bet on the Super Bowl, even though some think its a must bet event.

I was liking the Colts -6.5, but with some shady weather this evening in Miami, I may just pass on the Colts. If I could get +7.5 with the Bears and that weather, I may bet that. But we know that game is not going to move to 7.5.

i'm not betting it as well since my offshore balances are all zero. i was fortunate enough to get my money out the day before neteller cancelled EFT's so I am very hesitant to put even a penny back in at this time. i am very upset that I have been betting all year and now the U.S. govt won't even let me make a wager on the superbowl. it's been a tough day and knowing that my balances are all zero, i still keep checking the lines across all bookies.

Not betting, no interest in the game anyway. Would rather give myself a handjob and get a good nights sleep.

Good game!

Fellows, everyone bets the big game. It's part of the shared cultural narrative and experience we have as Americans.

Anyway, everyone will be glued to the television set like the corporate puppets they've become begging to be exposed to the "funny and witty" commericials. The Super Bowl has become a corporate spectacle and resembles nothing of a real football game. They might as well just play the game in between commericials. That's Americans for you.....

I would play maybe, but I do not see alternative spreads at pinnacle! Only halves and qts. Anybody knows where are they?

Yeah those Pinnacle alts vanished for the playoffs. I hope they bring them back for the regular season next year. I spent a lot of time and effort collecting data on those.

Lucasbet posted 2.5 sec, sharp action on under..

I do not understand why they can post million alternative spreads for QT and HALVES plus silly props and not this.

Considering Bears -10.5 +800 at jazz.
