Maybe their expert only looked at the second half stats. ;-) The only BLSS Certified Hypocrite on BA "It is better to be an optimist and be proven a fool than to be a pessimist and be proven right."

Unfortunately, most of the opportunities are gone, 'cuz the "wise guys" hit the over/under win totals pretty hard. These are no longer even money bets at most sports books. For example, if we can get thru fall camp without major injury, I really like the 'cats to win more than 5. But because everybody else does too, you now have to bet $210 to win an additional $100. That's not worth the risk. Akron under 7.5 wins is tempting, but you still have to bet $180 to win and additional 100. That's not awful, but not good either, considering you are tying your money up for 3 months. I might bite on that one, depending on what I hear out of Akron the next two weeks...

Now I have enough knowledge to believe that gambling will never be something I will understand well enough to risk my hard earned $$$. "Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men."

Akron sucks. Also, Miami sucks, Buffalo sucks, Kent sucks, BG sucks, and UMass sucks. Go Bobcats.
