Shoot, sorry about the push on this play, guys. It didn't go down like I thought it would...we'll get a winner next time.

Someone asked about which book has the lines for these games - I use Heritage and 5dimes.

GL on your plays tonight!

Dammit Dees will you get your old avatar up (the one with the guy with the huge mouth, NOT the Shamrock Shake one) so I can see when you are posting?

Thanks guys and sorry about the typo I forgot to change it on my word template before copy/pasting my write up to submit.  

In regards to the line I agree with bigcat this line makes absolutely no sense to me.  I dont care if its the most square public play in the world these teams met a couple weeks ago at Illinois State and the number was -6 and Illinois State absolutely trashed this team by 28.  Indiana State has done nothing since that says they will hang in this game.  The fact that it's down to 3.5 either means the sharps are pounding it because they know something we dont or it's such a publically bet game.  Im guessing the latter and sometimes the public wins.  

All things equal this should be a double digit win for Illinois State.  Lets get it!

Hey rf.  Make sure that line is actually bet-able before you post it at -3.5.  If you can bet it, then that's fine, but I have 5 books and its not up yet.  My guess is that it will be 5 or 5.5 by the time it is actually open for bet.

So I had Yale -11 tonight which was solid but I had no idea that Montague (Senior, Captain) was expelled last month.  Yikes!

This reverse line movement screams out TRAP, but I just cannot help myself and pound Illinois St. -3.5.  I would make that my $$$$ play for sure except that I do not have anything original to add that previous posters have not already covered.  Also tailing Texas.

Well shiiiiiit.  I trailed on Orlando.  Phoenix shooting 53% on the road where they are usually terrible.....go figure I place my first NBA bet in years today and now I remember why I don't do NBA.  Sometimes teams just take the day off.

No need for apologies, dawg. Just the fact that I can't get any work done at work because I am sweating a Dutch soccer game makes it all worth it
