    Handicapping THE COIN TOSS

    Here is a picutre of the coin that will tossed for SB 49 -
    The side with the Patriot & Seahawk & Trophy is 'HEADS'.

    It looks to me like 'TAILS' is the heavier side, so then 'TAILS' has a greater chance to land down, so the play is 'HEADS'

    Heads obv has more 24k gold so would be the heavier side. You lucked out though because my research shows the aerodynamic drag created by the "Limited Edition" number plate on tails will make your bet a winner!

    We need to find out who the referee is that is flipping it, and what side of the coin is traditionally facing up, when he tosses it in the air.



    There will only be 3mph winds at game time, so the trajectory of the coin should be close to unaffected, unless he tosses it SSW, meaning the slight winds from the NNE might change the angle once gravity takes effect.



    Currently the NFL is useing two Scintrex CG-3M Autograv gravimeters to perform gravity surveys. We should have these results by Friday.



    The Cardinals use a Tifway 419 Bermuda grass that has become the standard for golf courses, Cactus League baseball fields and other sports facilities. "It responds well to all the abuse it needs to take." With this being said, the landing of the coin should be a nonfactor.

    I placed my bet on Heads minus 1 1/2.

    Unfortunately for me, that's not really all that worse of a pick than most of my action since mid-November.

    Heads is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 Super Bowl flips. Can't believe I actually looked that up.

    3-1 in favor of tails in last 4 games NE was in Super Bowl.

    These trends make it a no-play for me!

    Can we bet on how long it takes the coin to hit the ground? Over/Under?
