Question Baseball taking the backseat to foots?

I don't even check the scores unless it's for the contest grading. Anyone still wrapped up in daily bases wagering?

More money to be made on baseball. Lots of good value with plus money dogs. Unless you play the underdog ML's in NFL your stuck with -110 most of the time and you gotta beat the spread.

I was done with bases at the all-star break. Now I'm waiting on pucks to start.

Are you serious? Ill be wrapped in it till the very end. Baseball is the best time of the year for wagering especially towards the end of season. Dont get me wrong, I love playing football but as long as the bases are going, its always the top

I don't have proof of it, but many sharps I talk to swear the baseball lines are softer in September once football starts.

You also have the impact of wagering against teams that have packed it in for the season.

Still in baseball mode right now and it's too early to bet anything really big right now in the NFL, IMO.

I'm all about MLB.

With my systems, opportunities dwindle at this time of year but there is still TONS more than football. If they start having 15 football games every day 7 days a week, then I will mention it in the same breath as baseball. But as long a they're just going to play once a week, it takes a back seat.

I actually prefer to watch football but it is small potatoes for betting for me.
