    Basketball is by far the easiest sport to bet, with baseball in 2nd place. Hockey and the NFL is a crap shoot with the NFL maybe being the worst. As for NBA you have to understand how difficult it is to win on the road for whatever reason in the NBA. Most times teams w genuine superstars can consistently win on the road.

    I think this shows there truly is no advantage on dog or fave in anyway. Any way to pull stats that shows there is some sort of edge based soley on HA DF is noise
