I hear ya'll saying stuff but can't say why not to  bet the Colts  although it doesn't matter  to me now but nobody ever convinced me not too .That tellms me you are nothing but Saints Fans and not real at what you do

i'm not even saying you picked the wrong side, but cashing out the retirement account to bet a side in the superbowl is hella-stupid

manning totally sucks under pressure, so if the saints play like they did the vikings,they will win hands down.manning will not stay in the pocket and take the hits like brett did.and a good bet would be the saints over 13 for the first half.

should've mortrgaged the house while you were going for it.  $82k retirement isn't much anyways.  should've put it all on black, doubled up, then bet on colts.  that would buy you a few more years with a higher quality of living.

good luck.

If this is true I can't believe you are doing something like this where you have no control.  You worked many hard years to accrue 80k and now put it all at risk on a sporting event.  How will you explain that to your family if you lose?

Dwight Freeny's  Injury ,Rookies that were not there before .This stuff is all head games with gamblers as well as players .I am sure it's going to be a great game .Colts either win  or they will get blown out simple .If the game stays close The Colts will take it and it will be by more than  the 4.5  but i am also looking  for it to even go down a little bit more .I jumped on at 4.5 . A always the line moves will sway many people  but I say stay the original course Colts  win pretty simple the more you read the more you get confused and bet the wrong thing 

When you bet the 45K in vegas - what forms did you have to fill out?

this type of money should only be put on a ML of a game.  No reason to put it on 4.5.  At least buy 2 points down to 2.5.
Colts up 10 with 2 minutes left and get a garbage TD with the prevent defense and then win by 3, how mad will u be.
Colts win 31-28.

The problem with losing the 401-K is that you will lose more than $82,000 com tax time. You will be taxed at your bracket on the 82K and pay penalties if, as I suspect you are based on this wager, young.

Having said that, I am with you 100%. Colts will cover.

Don't forget you'll be paying a 10% early withdrawal penalty on that 82 grand on next year's income tax return.

Manning totally sucks under pressure?? 

DUDE, you need to seriously get out of any type of gambling activity, or discussion of anything related to reality.  Writing children's books might be a good option for you.

Thank me later.baby

This is the biggest BS post I've read on covers.  I'm on the Colts and hope they win but this lie is taking it to another level.

I hope you win because I believe you may be on suicide watch if you lose.

shudda ml Colts and put the rest of your 401K on Saints and the points.  You could scoop both and then pay the taxes you owe on your 401k.
