Ive noticed when the "public" is on one side they get crushed another example the mets today.. are umps squeezing the strike zone?

You will see games with high percentages on one side win some and lose some. If it was as easy as your saying everyone would "fade the public" and win. Some years underdogs hit at a better rate and some years favorites do.

Look at total on dbacks game. Dropped a lot and gave it a lot of juice heavily favoring the under. It's over not even half way through. Angela the other night changed 40 bucks and built a lead then got drilled. I see it a lot.

"Oh my gosh, if the line is steaming that far up Oakland MUST be the right play!" Just ignore it and cap the game. I've learned this the hard way myself

Juice the line by 30 more cents to incite more action on Oakland? Are you really this insane?
