Hello. I'm 24/m and don't like football at all....I find it barbaric and repulsive. Is there something wrong with me? lol Any other horseplayer here that doesn't like football?

I think you might be the only one. I can't imagine life without football.

1.Yes.
2.No.

Its better than a war.
It is fairly violent.
But there is a lot worse stuff
on TV that is fake.

Horse racing can be pretty barbaric
and repulsive also. I have survived
thru the guilt somehow.

It is a little strange, but if you noticed almost every track in the country ran early today because they knew that everyone in the world was going to watch the game tonight. What did you watch?

I didn't watch anything. I sat in my university and did some reading. lol Super Bowl day is one the greatest days ever if you want to go to a normally overcrowded area to do something. In the past I've always played golf on Super Bowl days because it's always completely empty. There is not another Sunday in the whole year where golf courses are void of people.

I play or watch Santa Anita usually, but the rain took out that.

I think of it as a holiday, bet horses all afternoon and then watch the game at night. Made some money at the track and then the Giants won (probably could have even parlayed it into a little action last night ) It was a perfect day.
