Thanks SP. The hyperlink worked perfectly. And obviously I see now there is a huge difference in the numbers being reported. Closer to a 60-40 split favoring the Eagles and Ravens. I also like the fact that it shows the ML% (which can often be far more interesting than the side%). Great site.
To tell you the truth I have honestly never put a lot of stock into these numbers when it comes right down to it. I mean seriously, who the hell cares if you are on the side of the public or not? Yeah, yeah, I know, Vegas keeps building new casinos because the public is often wrong, but the public wins some too. So unless you are prepared to purposely fade the public on every game for the entire season, what are the odds of knowing if the particular and specific game you are betting is the proper time to be fading the public? What if it is one of the games the public is destined to win? I run through my normal capping methods and simply play the teams that my systems tell me to play. I can't let the fact that the public may or may not be favoring a certain team on a certain Sunday sway me from my methods and conclusions. Do I like it when my methods point towards underdogs and non-public favorites? You bet!! But would I ever fade the public solely for the purpose of fading the public? Hell no.
Don't get me wrong, I do understand why some people are concerned with the public numbers and know some that incorporate them into their methods and decision making. Nothing wrong with that. Some guys are actually pretty succssful via doing so. So I am not trying to step on any toes or demean that approach with what I typed above. To each their own.
BOLTA on Sunday.
