Default This Game Is Bigger Than Any Superbowl

Unreal

Nothing comes close to the magnitude of this game and the City that was destroyed.

I didn't play this game, gun-shy from yesterday. But, I woulda been all over Atlanta.

I've gotta join a 12-step program to break my addiction to square betting!

Vick will never give you the best chance to win your bet, nor give Atlanta the best chance to win.

Those numbers maybe true. But tell me why Carib consensus numbers dropped 11% a half hour before game time ?

Even if those numbers aren't accurate

The Falcons opened up -3 and went to -4.5/5.. It wasn't easy finding someone who liked the Saints..

obviously there was a few people that did like the saints, because why else would those consensus numbers drop dramiticly right before game time.

I felt I was with the public in backing the Saints without looking at the numbers myself. Don't like to do it often, but cashed last week with Jax and the public and hope to do so as well tonight.

What made you think the public was on the Saints?

That might not exactly the case either IMG. Even some of the linesmakers stated earlier in the week, that public money should come in late on the Saints.

speaking of which.....SBR should look into with a consensus on sportsbooks bets....would be a neat thing to look at where all the bets are going. Maybe a percentage of bets on each game from the top advertisers on sbrlines.com
Maybe adding it as an option for sbrlines?


yes? no?
