Literally sick to my stomach

If you're grandma had balls, she'd be your grandpa

Wrong. This game had high scoring written all over it. Hence why the number was set at 55.5 and the public ate it up and pushed it to 57, even 58 someplaces. Just because you look at a game and say to yourself "This has OVER written all over it", Don't you think the oddsmakers know this and jack the price up so high that it'll stay under ??? come on man. You probably had the under in the Steelers/ Ravens game too !!! "This has UNDER written all over it", No, it has low scoring written all over it, but the total is set at 34??? How many Steelers/Ravens games end 20-17 or higher ??? Most of them...

The oddsmakers know more then the general public

What the general public doesn't know, is what makes them the general public

no offense... but that's horseshit!  randomness DOES invariably favor some over others, because human beings do not live forever, and therefore, within a limited timeframe, it is inevitable that randomness will show favoritism...

that is luck... that is the definition of luck... if you and i are in equal situations, where the circumstances of the outcome do not favor one over the other, and one of us gets favored, that is luck...

sorry man... there's no way around it... you can say it is only the "perception of luck"... but what is the difference!?

luck is what you experience when chance does or does not favor you... so the only way to say there is "no such thing as luck" is to come up with a different word to describe how i just defined luck...

either way, it's all rhetoric... luck (or whatever you want to call it) is undeniable...

well you're just talking about probability here... whereas i'm talking about perspective...
