I hate to bump Clint Eastwood down from the top of the blog (please don't tell him!), but have to do a quick post to add a couple of plays that aren't football:
NBA
Pacers -4.5 -110 1st half (WSEX), 1.10 units to win 1 unit
Betting is 50/50 but this line has plowed ahead in the Pacers' favor anyway (maybe the Devin Harris injury has something to do with that). The silly 1st half bet is just cowardice - afraid of the late back-door cover with a team that seems to lose it's focus after halftime. Not an endorsement of the coaching in Indy.
Bucks +5.5 +107 (Matchbook), 1 unit to win 1.07 units
This one is ugly, especially with Michael Redd probably not playing (he's missed the last two games), but it's not any uglier than the picks last night that went 4-1. 70% of the bets on the Suns, but the line went the other way.
NHL
Tampa Bay +136 (Matchbook), 0.5 units to win 0.68 units
With a name like Lightning, they probably skate pretty fast.

Do you really think it makes sense to lay -110 on that 1H line rather than getting reduced juice somewhere else on the full game?
Probably not. Brain fart there.
Yep, bit me in the ass. Got in a rush and talked myself into doing something weird. Lesson learned.
