And to be honest with you sir, it appears that your issue has been gambling on the sport itself for fun and getting ****ed over too many times? Don't know, just pondering. But how about just enjoying the sport as it is and for what it is and without any money being included.

Here's the truth. You love the sport of football. So look at it for what it is. A graceful, cerebral, elegant, tough, and exciting sport. Appreciate it for what it is. Go watch high school football on Fridays. Stuff like that. You love the sport, but you hate all the other antics that surround the NFL.

My boyfriend is working on quitting smoking. In order to help himself do that, he has also cut back on things like drinking beer. The desire to have a cigarette while enjoying a beer is just too overwhelming for him. Me? I've never been addicted to smoking, so I have no problem enjoying a beer for what it's worth.

In this situation, Joe's gambling is the cigarettes and watching football is having a beer. In order to quit one, he needs to cut back on the other. Doesn't mean he doesn't still love football.
