i did read it..i thought he was using the logic of why is a 20 game over 500 team an underdog at home...when i see a team like that as such a high underdog at home..kinda makes me think vegas is wanting you to take the tiger here..

I like the sites and use them too but so often they are wrong IMO.  The best way to find what people are betting is by looking at the forums.  If you check here and other forums, every other thread is Texas and Whitesox.  Also many are on SF which to me is the clear public dog of the day and should be avoided.

Betting on DET means YOU'LL decide when their losing streak ends.

Why the lowly Buccos?..I know Bush isn't great on the road but you consider Pittsburgh a road start?..Bush had 3,1 and 2 ER in his last three starts on the road...Take Bush..

Alright "Kid"  I'll walk you through it just like a 5th grade flashback....

They've played 46 total home games,,, what would their record be if they were playing .500 for those... answer.... 23-23..    How many wins do they actually have..... 32.......     32 minus 23  equals    9 ....      They are 9 games over the break even point

Your apology is accepted... and I hope we all learned a little something today at school....

This is not the commonly used approach to get to games over .500

It is the absolute "correct" way mathematiclly,,,   I'm just trying to educate the mistaken masses whenever I see it.

Just becaue "everyone" does something that is wrong. doesnt't make it OK.....  Damn it kids,,,  listen to me!!!!....  

I'm just Fn' with you all  just a little pet peeve of mine I've always had

I'm more confused with what team the poster is acutally on for the Tex/Det game.  I was on board with Tex,, but it appears Det is actually the play.

Oh well, GL to all of you today

Bush has allowed 2 or less ER in 6 consecutive starts, Not too many pitchers can claim that. I can understand avoiding Milw but I couldn't justify playing the Pirates.
