I wasn't going to play but stupid me I went looking for "value". At about 8:20 I finally found my "value". Had Atlanta +14 (finally moved to a key number) and then "Hey it's snowing and cold and 55 is alot of point" - so I took the under.

I washed except of course for the unrelenting juice.

WKy -3.5 & u37 in the 2nd half. CMU rang off 34pts in the 4th quarter, including this to bust both of them

NFL teams favored by oddsmakers go 14-0 in Week 15

According to ESPN Stats and Information, favorites had won every game during an NFL week twice previously since the 1970 merger -- Week 9 of the 2005 season and Week 5 of the 2006 season.

Favorites went 11-0 straight-up and 7-2-2 against the spread Sunday, resulting in a costly football week for some Las Vegas sportsbooks. Parlays and teasers -- many of them filled with favorites -- fueled one of the best Sundays of the NFL season for bettors.

"Teasers were particularly bad," Bob Scucci, sportsbook director for Boyd Gaming books, told ESPN.

If a bettor had used a 14-team money-line parlay of all favorites from the closing lines of the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook, a $100 bet would have won $12,584.40.

William Hill U.S., Nevada's largest sportsbook, said Sunday was one of its worst of the season.

Thomas Kithier just was on bad beats. Total was 132.5. Valpo down 68-64 (132) two seconds left. Kithier takes the ball and attempts to throw it from out of bounds the length of the court but a guy on Charlotte lazily puts a hand up and the ball is deflected sideways to Kithier’s teammate who picks it up and instead of eating it throws it the length of the floor and it goes in for a spectacular but meaningless three.
Line 132.5
Total 135.

BTW respect to the good doctor’s thread here. RIP.

The bad beats segment is the best thing on ESPN. By far. Stanford Steve is hilarious.
