skins +4 3 unit

Got Skins for game, added a bet on 2nd half, Skins +4.

A question: How are 2nd half lines made? I mean, after watching 1st half, how do the Skins get points?

There might be a slight glitch in the s/w That's the second double post I have seen in 5 minutes.

If you are surprised by this line, then I would recommend watching some 2nd halfs play out before wagering on them. It will save you money in the long run.

Well, Skins dominated in 1st half, are dominating (so far) in 2nd half. Works for me...

**DrunkenLullaby** · 12-23-07, 10:18 PM

I wasn't taking a shot at you. I honestly hope you win, but being able to basically predict what a line will be is essential to long-term survival.

**Gawdfather** · 12-23-07, 10:22 PM

Oh, didn't think you were taking shot at me, just still do not understand how +4 was the line. Do the books base it on how the first half was played, what the game spread was, or the theory that the team that did not play well in the first half will play well in second?

**BigOrangeTitans** · 12-23-07, 10:22 PM

Well said Drunk. Grats to wash backers 2ndhalf and side.
I went 1 for 6 in early games so the Wash ML and 2nd half lines look to be like pretty solid plays for me. After this afternoon I wanted to quit(seems like i want to quit on all my bad days, haha).

**BigOrangeTitans** · 12-23-07, 10:23 PM

THe line comes out like this mainly because Min is getting shut out at home, thats the biggest reason they gave points. Not to mention they were almost a touchdown favorite.

**4FUN.AND$$** · 12-23-07, 10:49 PM

The over still has as chance though a rather small chance IMO. Washington is done scoring and I can only hope MInny can get 10...

**Gawdfather** · 12-23-07, 10:52 PM

What the hell is Gregg Williams, the Skins DC, doing? 1st half they had eight in the box, biltzed like hell, and completely dominated the Vikes O. 2nd half, he has the LBs playing back in the secondary, not calling any blitzes, giving Jackson plenty of time to make throws. Bizarre.

**Destroyer** · 12-23-07, 10:58 PM

The Vikes may still have life. LOL.

**4FUN.AND$$** · 12-23-07, 11:06 PM

I need a field goal to win the over I have..

Does this give Washington the wildcard if they beat Dallas next week ?

Yep, Skins beat Cowboys and they are in.

**4FUN.AND$$** · 12-23-07, 11:17 PM

They has a dismal performance at times this year. Hard to believe they could make the playoffs.....

**Gawdfather** · 12-23-07, 11:21 PM

%*$#(*$&%$*#(W@%&$*#(@W)#*$&%$*# BS call!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Leads to a garbage TD that costs me 2nd half push. Screw you Ref. That was absurd.
