    If you bet all dogs all year in any sport and won. Sports betting in that sport would be cancelled and all linesmakers fired.

    Blindly betting something this basic is stupid

    I understand that, and my answer has little to do with that actually. Betting all dogs or all favorites in any baseball season will end up in the red, if anything like all dogs or all favorites would win long term it would be discovered in a second by the bettors and exploited until there was nothing left to win.

    Nothing is that easy...

    of course you are right

    well, i dont know how much you will end up, i am just confident you will end up

    every year if you bet against the yanks every game, you will make money for the last 6-8 years or something like that.

    home dogs are the way to go. in ncaaf, nba, and mlb

    ucla+280 last night, for example

    Well I will take your work for it, but why aren't people cleaning up on these sure money angles??

    Lack of patience??, not enough action betting that way??

    Fading the Yankees and betting home dogs are really not that esoteric a path to take. Many must've looked into it.

    its hard to make yourself take home dogs when its san diego vs webb like last week, or nats vs hammels like tonite
    its very hard to ignore the pitching matchups and remember home teams win most, or more, of their games

    i never lay on the road, but its hard for me to take livan tonite vs lincecum

    its very mental, its hard to look up and see a +200 and think, oh, they will probably win

    Well that line moved from +176 to +150 on the Rockies so some took the plunge.

    I do hear what your saying, but while I think it is a smart angle to take I would contend that you still have to pick and choose to be profitable and that blindly betting them all will end up losing you money.

    I figure 1 of 3 things is going to happen.

    I'll make money, break even, or lose money.
