Has anyone ever had any sort of cross-disciplinary inspiration into looking at sports betting from methodologies adopted from financial markets, or vice versa?
I'm intrigued whether such things the Black-Scholes options pricing model has any sort of overlapping value in sports betting also. Or even vice-versa. Do those individuals that have extensive backgrounds in sports handicapping methodologies have angles that financial analysts just wouldn't think about?
I'm just generally fascinated by the prospect of a transferability in knowledge and methodologies that are intended for use in one type of market, but may also have value looking at the other.
