i have been reading and hearing this for years.

for instance, you could have easily...EASILY...said last week, "well brady has no one and it's a short week, they will have no chemistry (which everyone and their mother, brother, sister and uncle were saying in the media), and the jets shouldn't be such big dogs here." and the argument to that would be "well they've already factored that into the line". the point is you can say that about every single game to anyone's reason for taking anything, so i don't understand how you can rationalize gambling yourself. please explain.
