    I'm not sharp, but it is silly that EVERYONE would play Minny as a road fav based on their current form.

    Stop w/ the conspiracy theories. I have bet though on a rigged college football game. BC vs Syracuse years ago. Maybe 96ish.

          I guess you don't fall into the 95% of people that lose at gambling overall. Nowhere else have I been where almost everyone wins. Only at SBR.

            i'm sure football is rigged. especially if you mean 'football' as in 'soccer'. as for american sports, maybe the games aren't scripted play by play, but i still believe that vegas knows the outcome of every game beforehand.

                    Could the occassional game be rigged? Possibly. Is the sport rigged overall? No. What exactly did you see in last nights game that made it look rigged? Vikings had lost 2 primetime games in 3 weeks BEFORE last night, they are simply not playing good football. Everyone had Minnesota ML? Really? What was so great about the value in the ML? I know plenty had them to cover but anyone who regularly plays huge ML faves in the NFL is going to lose in the long run anyway.

What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?

                      part of a 2-team winning teaser:

                      Win12/28/09 8:35pm NFL Football 132 Chicago Bears +16 * vs Minnesota Vikings

                      not all of us suck at this, Sir

                      Minny - the pts, teased, or ML was a fukking HORRIBLE "i know nothing about football betting" type of play

                          Amazing. College Sports kick my ass year after year.

                          Years ago I moved to Laughlin NV just to bet NBA, loose "system" based upon past 3 games of teams, margins of victory...a whole mathematical really..."nightmare", at least for me. I hate math.

                          Was up about $3500 then March Madness took me apart.

                          Poor money management the primary chink in the armor there though.

                          Inconceivable to me how anyone wins with College sports....how do you do it?

                          How does one "handicap" this stuff? Factor in the unpredictability of teenaged emotions...19 year olds and the like? With basketballs and footballs in their hands?

                          Or, too often...falling from their hands.

                            wrong by game time because of the spread hike to -9 1/2 it was about 53% minn. And 47% bears and ml was landslide to bears

                              gotta know the talent on the field and on the court, by knowing this it can overcome the emotional tendencies and how theyll affect the gm
