Not if the fave and Over have value.

The whole square / sharp thing is overated. Can a square become a sharp? Which came first...the chicken or the egg?

Value is not dependent on the fav or dog or the over/under it is purely on the NUMBER THAT PROVIDES VALUE. If I'm a square for betting favorites and overs when they present value then call me a square.

Like you posting a 1-4 record in the NFL this week? Is that what real men do? I'll stick to beating the poker tables and the sportsbooks. I'll let you stick to taking out multiple mortgages to pay for the roof over your head and your gambling debts.

Will that include those who took the Cowboys and the Over on the 2nd half?

Halftime lines are a whole other story sir. Those who place types of wagers are usually sharps.

All the advantage bettors probably do okay, but I cant sit there and make 80+ plays in a day. I'm not near as good at the numbers as those guys. I dont really believe in the whole square v. sharp thing just from picking a certain side consistently.
