Simmons and Nelson analyzed betting data on 1,008 regular season NFL games on Sportsbook.com from 2009 to 2012. They found the average share of money bet on the favorite was 65 percent.

Then you didn't read my post because I never said the betting is 50/50 for moneylines. I'm guessing you took me saying the money needed to be balanced to mean 50/50, but if you read my longer post you'd see that in moneyline gambling, balanced is based on the moneyline and the betting trend.

And in betting against the spread, that's exactly what Vegas wants to happen - disproportionate money on one side.

I said the favorite was decided by 50/50? I said the moneyline is set based on balancing the money, which you obviously didn't understand.

You kept going back to "even money" on both sides and claimed there was no vig because it was moneyline, again, something you didn't understand.

Reading comprehension dude.

Calm down there fella, I didn’t even take a position. I just enjoy good gambling talk even though this is quickly deteriorating

I've said it for quite a few months.. I fully believe that if Michelle Obama announced a run in early spring, she'd be the president. Not even sure it would be a close battle.

CNN just ran their first story on the Biden sexual assault claim, 24 days after it happened.

In the first 19 days after the Kavanaugh allegations, CNN supposedly ran 700 articles on the matter.

Isn't there like 7 women now saying he did stuff?

Unlike the left and media, I say give him the benefit of the doubt and lets not find him guilty in public opinion just yet.

He is referencing the immigrant hold for 60 days. Crowes is the typical leftist not caring how many migrants come in, and I'm the typical right wing guy worrying about Americans

I'd love to hear about Biden from Crowes. Him and the rest of the left elitist wanted to castrate Kavenaugb on assumption but now all of a sudden want due process, the hypocrisy runs deep among the left

Wait, did Trump say the immigrant hold was so immigrants don't take jobs?

I assumed it was a COVID health thing.
