All I was doing was outlining the game as a whole. Where did I use any bias in my analysis of the game in general? If you feel like I was biased, oh well thats your problem. I gave props to both teams when needed. So thanks for your input, but don't call me biased.
    If you aren't going solely off of numbers, then your handicapping has bias. Bias is what loses squares money.

            I only read the title.

            I don't know you.

            I know NOTHING about NCAAB.

            I know next to nothing about sportsbetting.

            The little I know is probably things I only think I know but don't really.

            But a wise man said to me once upon time: nothing and no one in the world are unbiased. There is simply no such thing.

            I hope you won.

                  I get what you are saying, but did not intend for this article to be used as a handicapping write up. This was more of a preview of a big game and my opinions on the matchups, etc. I apologize if you personally did not find it helpful, but hopefully it helped someone out. I do write ups just about everyday that include "the numbers". If you want you can check them out, if not then that is fine too. I was going to do a handicapping-type write up, but the general consensus on the site was all for Duke and I figured that would be of no help to anyone. This PREVIEW was just to enlighten the folks that do not watch every ACC game and give them insight on the personel.

                      Nothing i love more than a salty "sharp"

                      You picked the wrong team period. Nothing sharp about it.

                        You are right about that, but the only reason I used that title was because I wanted people to read what I had to say. I figured most people would shrug it off once they saw my screen name and not give it the time of day figuring it was just another homer rambling on about their team. Clearly I was wrong seeing as how you didnt bother to read it.

                            Hey man, sorry if I sounded rude or anything - was just stating a point.

                            See, now that you've won your bet - I will make sure to read your next write-up..unbiased or biased

                              You come to a sports gambling forum to give an opinion on a game, claim it's unbiased yet it's littered with your opinion.

                              Then you claim it wasn't to be used in handicapping (again, Tomato reminds you, this was posted in a NCAA Basketball HANDICAPPING forum), yet you even went so far to give your opinion against the spread on the game.

                                      Littered with my opinion is a little much I would say. Like I said, if you didn't like it you don't have to read them in the future. And come on dude, are you really using first person like you are someone important?!?! BOL in the future, but I had enough people commend the write up to waste anymore time with you. I invite criticism, but this is more like bitterness.

                                                  The roof has now fallen in on north carolina. From now on the linemakers will have to adjust in a big way.

                                                  This game was what I thought an obvious play on north carolina, so if they lose this one, how can you ever play them again?

                                                    I couldn't play them ever. They have serious problems. They played better on defense last night, but that was helped out by Duke's horrendous FT shooting and lack of a big man to draw Davis out of the middle. The intensity of the game was incredible which probably helped the defense out as well. UNC has major problems and the one that is most glaring of all to me is Larry Drew. He is real real bad.
