Related: About this forumThis is why I don't bet on NFL football games.
At halftime, I would have put big money on KC...home field and a 21-3 lead in the 1st half. I would have lost on a sure thing again,,,

(31,441 posts)That win has to give them confidence, regardless of what the sports media is telling us. When it got down 21-3, I was thinking the game was over. Cincinnati proved up to the challenge.

(11,766 posts)After four games, with the Orioles up 3-1, a coworker wanted to bet that the Pirates would win. I tried to talk her out of it, but reluctantly took the bet.
I should have talked ME out of it.
