Bulletin Board Material for SF Game!!

[sportscurmudgeon]

BrudLee is right. That "three point swing" for the home team is not etched in stone and in fact it owes most of its "popularity" to the late but not overly lamented Jimmy the Greek Snyder. Talk about a poser... but that's a different story.

I assure you that the oddsmakers know that the public knows that every team has a different home field advantage. Just think about it for a minute. You are playing at SF against this sorry-assed team and their home field is worth 3 points. Or you could be playing the Pats in New England in late December when it is 5 below zero and you are a dome team - and that home field is worth the same e points?

Remember, the oddsmakers want to adjust the line to what YOU believe the home field advantage may be because they want the same money bet on either side of the ledger.

So, the betting public in the US had the Cardinals 7 points better than the 49ers and now they have the Redskins only 3.5 better. If the players in the Skins' locker room do not take that as an insult, they shouldn't be able to look the bank teller in the eye when they cash this game check!

That is what the football fans of America think of this team. That is outrageous!
