    What kind of bets are you making? There are dogs covering and winning outright every night. Lakers, clippers spurs wizards all won outright as dogs last night. Sixers covered but lost. Pistons won outright today, Magic too. I’m not understanding your gripe with underdogs? Also are you betting equal amounts on every single dog to win and cover? Or did the bets you make just happen to be dogs and favs happened to roll?

    Don't think you're crazy. Favs win a lot, b/c the lines are pretty accurate.

    Two observations, and I dare someone to prove me wrong:
    1) The straddles on big Moneylines are way too fat Fav/Dog.
    ...Used to be that you could bet EITHER Fav or Dog and feel like you're getting a fair shot.
    ...The straddles are UN-conscionable. They can fuk off if they post -1000/+700.

    2) Getting a big dog home on the Moneyline? Good luck.
    ...Easier said than done.
    ...They short those prices, b/c they don't want to make big payouts.

    If the dogs just aren't getting it done, try betting cats. There are plenty of house pets to handicap. Diversity is key.

    Did you bet that? Was paying lottery odds early on, now they're 2nd in line to the Nuggets odds wise.

    Coop, I'll give you one.

    AFCON - Iv Coast -0.5 (4.50 or so).

    ...Should have a great chance to hit. If it loses, I'll buy you lunch.

    Nevermind him. He's betting on Civil War reenactments and Renaissance Fair battles between pixies and imps.

    Most books won't offer such fare.

    If a line is offered, then a fix is in the cards. I heard pop warner travel teams lines are offered somewhere. Look, in this case, the refs and coaches will fix the game for ya.

    The reason dogs don't win anymore is legal gambling. It is easier for the players and families to bet on favs as all they have to do is lay down at the end and don't cover the spread. The good old days of dog winning is over due to legal gambling.

    I think that might be overstating the importance of betting in major leagues a bit there.
