Trump was elected for his promise of draining the political swamp. What you are seeing now from both sides, particularly the left, is the residue that simply cannot be flushed in a single term. The right is just as dirty but have fallen in line behind an incumbent of the people. If you remember, Trump was not well received by these same folks until the writing became clearer on the wall. Similar to roaches scattering upon the flicking on of a light switch. Trump is the anti-establishment and it is all gonna get weirder from here as we watch the dog & pony show that is our media driven political system in an election year. |

Why does "the fix" need to be in for the public side to lose? Not saying it will, just curious why you think this. Public perception is built into every number. If perception is off, so is the number. It doesn't require a fix this to occur. |

If you spend any amount of time on this site you should know functionality is an issue. I think this is the just the nature of free sites that operate primarily on advertising revenue. Folks that complain about the functionality are often clueless to the thought process that there are costs associated with each of the various functions and these costs are part of an overall business structure. My guess is the new format costs less than the old format and I'm fine with this because the site remains free and offers a literal ton of features. |

Another classic post where the original poster tries to act like they know something by throwing insults at the other side. These always end the same. |

Everybody and their brother looking to fade the Pats now. Do so at your own risk. Would -2.5 or -3 not have seemed appropriate here? Line was set higher for a reason. |

So fed up and disgusted with the BYU/Hawaii debacle yesterday Ive decided to take matters into my own hands.

Went back to sleep, woke up to find out they got a stop and scored. I literally didn't care. Because it's a stupid minor minor bowl game. I didn't bet more than I could afford to on it. Sorry to hear you loaded up on the... (checks notes)... Hawaii bowl. And lost. Bec you bet against Hawaii... in the Hawii bowl. And bet on... some mormons who normally cant leave Utah except for missions |

Not as easy as you make it seem.And the larger the line which makes the SU winner easier to call the SU winner almost always is the fav AND THEY DO NOT COVER OVER 50%.su winner covers over 80% OF TIME, but when line is 3 or less THE SU winner covers over 95% of the time last I check years ago, so you can see many of those covers come with a small line where picking the SU winner any kind of high RATE IS SIMPLY NOT REALISTIC.the easiest SU winners to pick are with larger lines but then again those type games do not cover at 83%, well under that number even to the point where the su winner covers less then 50%. ^^^This^^^ |

Just pick the winners . Reading comprehension is definitely not your strength, nor is math. Nowhere did I mention betting money lines. If you think you can pick enough straight up winners (80% according to me) from which to hope enough of them (70% according to OP) cover to turn a profit, you're delusional. Good luck with it though. |

Sounds great, but good luck picking enough straight up winners to make it profitable. You would need to hit LIKE 80% straight up to turn a profit ATS. 70% OF 80% is 56%, which is close to the generally accepted threshold for turning a long term ATS profit. |

Road teams are covering at an 57% rate this year. is it sustainable?Week 9 was the only week that home teams truly made their mark. they went 11-3 su, 12-2 ats. i dont expect week 15 to emulate those results but is it not reasonable that we could maybe get something along the lines of 9-7 su, 10-6 ats for home teams this week? those are my early thoughts for week 15. Yep, perception is that home field is worth 3 points. We all know these 3 points are inherently built into every line. Or at least we assume so. Yet reality is, particularly so far this year, that home field is not worth 3 points. It would be interesting to see how many of these home team non-covers missed covering by 3 points or less. |

Did you just step out of a time machine from 2011? This site has been an IT guy's wet dream for several years. They must employ 50 of them because it literally takes some expertise to create a website with all these layered pop-ups and other features and not have the result be even more annoying and unstable than this.
I think Covers IT Dept should be applauded for successfully cramming 10 gallons of cyber shit into a 5 gallon cyber bucket. |

I agree. That -2.5 would worry me if I was a Seattle backer. It feels like a number that could easily be bumped to an even -3 everywhere. But instead it’s just lingering @ -2.5 with heavy juice. Just seems too easy to take Seattle here. |

Look, all this capping is pointless. The Ravens are gonna shred the Niners. It won’t be close. Regardless of Lamar, what is Jimmy G gonna do against that D? Are they gonna out physical the Ravens? Are they gonna out scheme them?... Nothing, no & no. |
