    16 Point Teases.

    One would think that teasing a basketball line 16 points would produce a winner 975 times out of 1000 ... -160 for a ten team 16 point tease gives me a chuckle.

    I think he's saying that teasing a baseball line 16 points would produce a winner 975 times out of 1000. Or 97.5% of the time.

    I think he's saying that -160 for a ten team 16 point tease gives him a chuckle. Alternatively, he gets a chuckle from a ten team 16 point tease at a price of -160.

    Hope this helps.

    I think he's saying that he gets a -160 chuckle from a ten team 16 point teaser thus a ten team 16 point teasers make him chuckle at a price of -160.

    Chasing 10 teams for an additional 16 points on a tease to get a lollipop sounds rather silly to me ... But if you enjoy it, who gives a bleep what I think.

    i agree kdm

    although these types of bets look good on paper, there really not. i mean how many times have we seen teams just get blown out, or lose a game by 30. oh sure, you might hit a few of these types of bets, but over the long haul you will lose.
