Gambling


Have you ever thought that your college team couldn't be beat. Then you got a crazy idea to place a little bet. Well bad idea. Every semester college athletes have to go to these things called workshops. And the workshop that I decided to go watch was on gambling.
Gambling. Yes it happens. And colleges are not prepared to deal with probelms associated with this growing fad. The guy that led the seminar was a recovered gambler himself. He was once a football player in college that made a stupid choice.
I have personal experience with this. One of my dear friend's from high school and scholarship football player at USF was kicked off the team last year and out of school for making a bet on one of his games.
It is a stupid mistake college kids think they can make to make quick money. But really it is just a stupid mistake to make quick jail time.
