half time and OU is getting whipped. Bigtime!

There is much weeping and gnashing of teeth amongst the gambling set
at the moment I'd wager.


Actually, there always is. The only ones not losing are the casino's and
bookies. The point spread is set up to get 50% bet on each team. And
since
they do not pay off 1:1, == great profit.


And I believe that if the point spread is matched......the house wins both
sides.


That's why you can buy a point on either side. :)

Er...did I just say something about gambling?

Nah - couldn't have been me.
