No. Vegas isnt making a number solely based on what they think is going to happen. They make a number based on where the bets are going to come in, and try to get equal action on both sides, or slant the number based on how the money comes in. they arent trying to actually always determine what the out come is going to be.
This has been explained to him many times over the years. He just doesn't get it.
"VEGAS SAID!!!!" I dont get it. vegas isnt doing a prediction TV show weekly to put out the winners of games.
The lines put out by vegas is to try and get as close to 50/50 betting as they can get. If they set the line of the Oregon/Georgia game as a pick'em -- all the money would be bet on Georgia. So they try to find a line to set where people will bet on Oregon too.
And no offense, but Nebraska is a train wreck. Comparing them to Georgia is a slap in the face to Georgia. Could Oregon beat Georgia? Sure, if Georgia's plane breaks down and they have to forfeit.
i like how you all also ignore the part where i mention talking heads (analysts, reporters)
UGA is 0-3 against USC. They haven’t played since the 60’s. They also lost to Colorado in that train wreck of a 2010 season
I noticed this past weekend for one of the games they were hyping the Jexas Vs Bama game, and listed the All Time head to head record for the matchup...Bama is 1-7-1 against Jexas. Just proof that historical records don't mean much, but when the TV heads are trying to make a lopsided matchup look good they will find a stat to make it look interesting.
Yep, it's not hard to understand and so misunderstood. Vegas ... bookies in general both legal and not ... makes their money on the VIG. They don't give a shit if the spread was 50 on a one point game as long as the money is split 50-50.
Which is why they need bigger money coming in late when the line has somewhat settled. It's why I could clean up if the Orioles somehow win the World Series.
Didn't ignore it, asked about a portion of it.
So many missed the ref. A few select know the best cartoon series in history.
I have every episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force on my DVR other than the one where Master Shake is bitten by a radioactive black man since I'm pretty sure they removed it for woke reasons. That's hands down the best cartoon series in history, and gifs from ATHF are the only acceptable gifs to ever be posted anywhere.
Animated videos are not cartoons.
