For Entertainment Purposes Only: Your Guide To Betting On The NFL Combine
↵It was only a matter of time before someone started offering odds on 40-times and bench presses. And yeah, it definitely adds to the creepiness of the whole thing, adding even more moral ambiguity to a spectacle that already revolves around grown men oogling college kids in tight underwear. But taken in a different light... How is it different than betting on normal sports? It’s all just betting on random skills. The only surprise is that it took this long, and that, sadly, there’s no prop bet involving Terrence Cody’s man boobs.
↵Anyway, without further ado... a few of the props being offered for the 2010 NFL Combine, courtesy of Sportsbook.com:
