There are not more than five "outside the box" thinkers in this forum. They are the most successful and least read. As long as people think they "know their sports" and "know all about sports wagering" the bookies have absolutely nothing to fear, and you can take that to the bank.

In the long run your attempts to educate on this forum will go for naught. I am living proof. I have written many a blog similar to this one (most of them better) in the past six years. All are forgotten, discarded and ignored. Unless you are God's own prophet you can't change a culture. BOL in your endeavor.
Well said.
