Is it a problem if I mention that I bet on a sports game with my friends to residents at a program?

1) Almost certainly not. If a program is going to restrict otherwise legal/socially-acceptable behavior (like drinking alcohol, as some do) they'll make that clear up-front.

2) If it were a problem at a specific program, would you actually want to match there?
