    Strange Odds at the Greek
    The Greek has posted lines for the AFC and NFC Championships, and they are very strange, to say the least. For the AFC, they have Indy, New England, and San Diego all stacked up at +525. Net come the Jets at +805, and then Baltimore, Pitt and Cincy at +1215.

    As strange as those odds are, the NFC lines are even stranger. The Saints and Dallas are at +525, followed by Green Bay at +625. Then Minnesota and Washington at +1015, followed by the Giants, Falcons and Bears at +1215. Are you kidding me? Washington and Minny at the same odds? Green Bay that big of a pick?

    Sucker plays abound here. No one in teir right mind is going to take the Jets at +805 when they can get the Ravens at +1215. Who would take the 'Skins over the Vikings at the same odds, unless you are the biggest 'Skins homer on the planet. What has Green Bay done to become such a huge play? Since when are the Bears the equal of the Giants and Falcons, especially with Minny and the Pack in the same conference as them. WHy not take either San Fran or Seattle at +2050 over the Bears or 'Skins, who have much tougher conpetition in their conference. These odds really leave one scratching his head.

    Bet Minny +1015. Blind odds would be +1600, Minnesota certainly counts as one of the top contenders in the NFC, if not the #1 contender. No way that the GB, NO, Dall should all be considered be twice as likely as Minny to win the Conference. They are saying that Minny is on the same rung with Redskins, Bears, etc? I've got Redskins & Bears as 50/50 to make the postseason at best, probably more like 3 to 1. Minny is a virtual lock to make the postseason.

    The rest looks fairly accurate, albeit loaded with juice. Ravens seem like the only other possible play. Taking any of those favorites this year simply presents no value, IMHO. Gotta find teams getting at least 10 to 1 odds.
