    Let me clarify what I mean for my own sake. Yes, things are influenced with certain injuries and locations and weather and such, although that doesn't change the number of outcomes. I know that things can be more "likely" to happen with injuries and such and that is why juice is adjusted to those influences. Although you still either win or lose, go over or under, score or dont score, etc. I suppose it depends what you look at but I still believe its 50/50, especially on over/unders because you never know what teams show up.

    It's not 50/50 if the guy hits 67% of his plays.

    Im not saying his bets are 50/50. I tail Sharp often! He is great with his plays. Im saying in general, the outcome of a single, individual bet is either a win or a lose (not counting a push if you want to get technical).

    I'm not one to bash, but they aren't even close.

    This one's a loser.

    The last 4 have been losers and not close.

    The one before won but it was the luckiest, strangest ending ever.
