    I am getting tired of these iso's by heavily favored teams fans looking for under dog teams fan. Probably because my team sucks this year, but these iso's are annoying the hell out of me.

    In my opinion, they should be banned just like political speech. Besides, this is the trade forum, not the con someone for free beer forum. Gambling needs to be banned. That is my old man out of touch with the times, rant for the day.

    I suppose technically it is against the Terms and conditions considering it isn't a beer for beer trade, since both sides are not getting beer.

    If the underdog team's fan takes the bet or doesnt work in a spread then that is his/her fault. Banning and over regulating is not the answer to every issue

    Being a Browns fan, I've grown accustomed to making foolish bets. If you change your stance on betting, I'll take the Browns, and you can take the Squeelers.

    If that's the case, I will take Akron and uconn and just half the points.

    I see nothing wrong with these, and the one time I tried to do it I got shit on because My team was favored. I offered this for the pats ravens for the game last year in the playoffs. Yes the pats were favored by like 7 or 9 points, but in the 5 previous years the pats and ravens games had never been determined by more than like 4 points. if there is a team that has the pats number (besides the giants) its the ravens

    It's not betting when it's a sure thing.

    We've received enough complaints from other members to discuss.

    Outcome: These threads are not allowed and should be reported in order to keep ISO:FT focused on beer for beer only.

    Thanks.
