NCAA Tourney - greatest sporting event in the world

[scaeagles]

I would tend to agree with Alex. Except for the comment about world cup soccer, which borders on heresy to this sports fan, but I do realize that world wide world cup soccer is much more popular.

I am glad, though, that when someone gacks in college basketball, they aren't murdered by fans in their home country, such as the poor Columbian who put the ball in his own net against the US whenever it was. Of course, it was probably not the average fan doing that, but you know what I mean. Internationally, soccer fans are a brutal bunch. Anyway.....back to my agreement with Alex.

Sports book is all about having an equivalent number of betters on both teams. The house takes their cut, and payouts are roughly equivalent. Changing lines are not about changes in the quality of the teams. It is about trying to get more people to bet the other way.
