Actually physically damaging your heart. Stress does lead to health problems.

I cant believe nobody has responded to this codeworks because I have thought the same thing, and I'm sure it does. Being a lifetime Tampa Bay Bucs fan, I always said that, if scientists did a study on Tampa Bay fans (before they turned it around), that they would find they tend to have a shorter life span....

...But, seriously though, I think it's probably a sure thing that gambling does take it's toll on us physically in the long run.

Does that mean I am gonna die soon too???

I agree, wagering on both ends can and will bring you to an early "retirment"

Stress has been shown to do harm to one physically & mentally. There is no question that wagering is something that can add alot of this to ones lifestyle.

I would guess yes to the question.

The stress of posting though is unreal and more dangerous to ones health than betting, I smashed my favorite clock last week over a post at the rx where some poster ripped me for no reason and last year my autographed Bay City Rollers Guitar was smashed because some guy from across the street said i had a small prick and that is why i have so many posts, can yopu believe that one, even though it is true he should not of wrote it.

Try being a Red Sox fan. And I'm still waiting for them to turn it around.

Reading some of the posts about me on this forum and other forums has taken so many years off of my life that the Doctors have given me just one or at most, two more years to live!!!

I hope to prove them wrong!

Patrick,

I think you may be able to get it down to six months...

I know exactly where your coming from BHBCS.I remember when I would of just been satisfied if Tampa just madeit to the playoffs, not caring what happened thereafter. They used to really furiate me. I remember one game, when Rodney Peete was still Detroit's QB, it was the end of the game, a few seconds left, and the Bucs winning by 4, and the Lions inside the Bucs 10, 4th down. I was right down by the field in the very end zone they were threatening, when Rodney Peete dropped back, and scrambled into the corner of the end zone I was standing, winning the game. I became so mad I threw my program out onto the field.........and then scurried off hoping I wasnt going to get arrested.....

No doubt the bad beats cause stress.

When I lose a run line dog bet on an extra inning multiple run homer, like I have twice in the past two weeks, I lose it.

I think it is healthy.....if you stay out of smoke-filled bars and sportsbooks.
