NFL Combine prop bets? Absurd

Further proving that the NFL Draft is one of the world’s premier sporting events, betting site Bodog.com released Scouting Combine prop bets today.

Many of them pit player versus player. Some seem easy – who will have the faster 40-yard dash between Jake Locker and Christian Ponder? But if they were easy, Bodog probably wouldn't have a line on them. More than anything, this is absurd. Do we really need to be putting money on something like this? The idea of guys running around a dome in shorts is silly to begin with. To put bets on it is downright gladiatorial.

Point of silliness? News is out that Clemson’s Da’Quan Bowers is only lifting weights the Combine. You can bet his 40 time against Von Miller.

Note: Don’t let MtD contribute to your gambling addiction. I’m only posting this for fun and to recognize the silliness. However, if you make money, you owe me a cut. Ten percent sounds good.
