so am I now permitted to bet on sports?
ReplyDeleteLegally? Depends on where you live. (Probably not.) Morally? Depends on which ethicist you ask. (Probably not.) According to me? Absolutely not. (I'd think this kind of information would make people less likely to bet. Past performance is no guarantee of future results; most wagering involves one-offs, while statistics are about long term trends.)
ReplyDeleteIn other words, don't bet on sports.
