    Maybe SBR management feels that we have too many sharps here and don't want players such as yourself breaking the bank on opening night sir.

    The first game of the season New Orleans vs Green Bay is a special bet... that's why the bet amount is limited. the rest of the games you can get for the normal limit.

    It's a horrible "special" bet for Packer backers, I'd rather have -4 with juice then -5 at even money.

    They pulled the same crap on the LSU game. I wanted to take LSU ML +140 (the bookmaker line) and they offered the special line of EV.

    The special is for people who want to bet on New Orleans. No one offers special lines on both sides, unless they're crazy.

    If you want to bet the Saints, bet them with a sportsbook or use MexicanStallion/ThaddeusB point books.
