So, in theory, even though the oddsmakers are spotting me points when I bet on dogs, I still can't even win...

Not at all,when you bet on dogs it means that you are better off playing them on the M/L as you won't need the points. They are most likely going to win straight up.Like Cleveland last week as a 7 point dog, if you thought they would win(they did) then you wouldn't need the 7 points,they were most likely going to win the game
Or if you like a favorite,don't worry about the high spread as it rarely comes into play.Just like Seattle last week. The spread was like -18 so if you thought they would win don't worry about the high number as if they win(they did) they would also cover the number.2016 CFB 183-184 -4580

Anyway, thanks for keeping this updated. Even though this is always the case to a degree, I have to believe this year might be a bit of an anomaly so far at least.A man's gotta make at least one bet a day, else he could be walking around lucky and never know it.

Great conversation I am sure and is something to always to refer back to. Think ??...41 games played into this out of 306 games last year ! ( post # 14 ) and is same year in and year out. ....It's funny when I bring this up to a game player, time and time again, I am told I better check my math, I am insane, I am giving bad info..... I am not saying by no means is it easy as it looks, but when you think about it is really remarkable !... and is not a "one hit wonder"...is consistent $ year after year. Best of luck to you with your plays.
