For the record, I am not going to trade Bitcoin futures...long or short...I'm just asking those who are so bearish on them and call them a scam and a ponzi scheme, why aren't you itching to short at least 1 contract...

Because I don't ever itch to gamble.
I thought about your question after you asked it. Other than my lack of willingness to see gambling as anything more than an entertainment expense, why would I want to bet on something with that risk/reward ratio?
