Preseason NFL

I have never understood the idea behind placing any action on preseason NFL games, but obviously some people are smarter than me........I have a feeling those people are the ones accepting the wagers, but that's just me. How can you judge a game that you have no idea what the lineup will consist of after at the most a quarter? The starters are always going to play very limited minutes, especially in early preseason games and a large portion of their replacements is made up of guys who have never played a down in a professional football game. Now, if you think this is wise to place your money on a game like this then please be my guest. I have placed many stupid wagers, but placing money on the spread or total in a preseason game is ridiculous.

I am suddenly reminded of a quote from National Lampoon's Vegas Vacation: "You don't know when to quit, do ya Griswold?... Here's an idea: Why don't you give me half the money your were gonna to bet, then we'll go out back, I'll kick you in the nuts, and we'll call it a day!"
