gambling advice 101 (a.k.a - how books pay their bills and make a LOT of money)
just because a game is on TV does NOT mean you have to bet it - and most of the time is the best reason NOT to bet it - because the books know people will bet it only on TV and make sure the line is tighter than an 18-year-old girl's.... if you have no clue who to bet - or even why you should bet the game - DON'T! the one HUGE advantage the players have over the books is the books MUST post a line on every game - but the players not only don't have to bet every game - they shouldn't.
"forcing" a bet is a dumb way to go.
