    Pick the best three teams in every League and chase them at home (to win at RL-1,5 , ML or ML-1 or all three types of wagering if you have the guts) when playing series against the three worst teams in every League. This is what I do every year

      The lines for baseball (where the best teams win like 60% of their games) are unfukinbelievable as well, you get an ace pitcher against a bum and go to bet and it's -300 and you're like wtf this is fukin baseball how the **** can I take a bet that I have to win 3 out of 4 to breakeven

      Only reason to bet baseball is bc (other than tennis and hockey which nobody cares about) its the only sport where youll see white players

      Turn on basketball and I thought my TV screen was broken it was so dark, then I realized they were just interviewing one of the players

        Oh yea one more reason why I hate betting MLB

        The season is so fuckin long, consisting of approximately 2000 games, that each individual game basically doesnt even matter, I mean with 66 games this year NBA each game matters a little bit (I actually think 66 season is better than the normal 82, 82 games is too fuckin long). But with MLB you lose one game you havent even lost 1% of the season, when you play 162 motherfukin games for some unknown reason JUST TO GET TO THE PLAYOFFS you basically lose any importance of an individual game (which is what we as sports gamblers are betting on), this just sucks bc in sports like NFL I can at least know the players are giving 110% everytime, in baseball until the very end of the season its hard to even really give a **** about 1 game, oh boy we just blew like .6% of the regular season? Who the **** cares???

          couldnt be further from the truth...

          ask the red sox, cardinals, braves, and rays

          how important one game is?



          the number of games doesnt matter as much as number of teams to make the playoffs


          which is about 25% of the league

          compared to nba, were over 50% make it...


          each game is important

            Yea when u get to SEPTEMBER one game matters but in fuckin April who gives a ****, sure if you are tied on the final day you can look back and say that each of those 80 losses hurt your chances a little but I mean c'mon each loss is .6% important at the time so who really cares

            For example each loss in the NFL or college football is devastating

              All you need to know about games not being as important as others in baseball is that fact that mlb players get days off.
              You wont see that in the NFL. The MLB stretch is way too long, you can lose 10 in a row and still make a run for it. There is no doubt in my mind you can find an edge trying to pick out meaningless baseball games. Even more so as the season has wound down the last month and a half can be brutal as teams out of the race are now letting prospects get a shot.

                So the next game you take his opponent and he pitches a shutout and you're like **** hes god, this is basically why baseball stats mean nothing, you can give me the average between a pitcher's great games and blowups and it doesnt tell me a fukin thing about what hes going to pitch like TODAY

                Every bookie on the planet (except for Bookmaker which basically closes during baseball season) suddenly offers half juice on baseball, if its also the easiest sport to cap I doubt they would double your edge by cutting the juice in half
                its all about match ups, pitcher vs batter, if there are tons of righys in a line up. why was he deafted so badly in his last match up, was it control issues, or did he just get beat up.

                  that is true, but september games just mean more, because its coming to an end. there is added pressure and its when either the pretenders fail and the contenders raise to the occasion
