LV source: "Bears are on 50 parlay bets to every 1 Minnestoa is on"
<HR style="COLOR: #fdde82" SIZE=1><!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->Was listening to a nationwide sports radio program on the way home from work and the weekly feature were they took to a bookmaker type from the Mirage. He said that they are getting killed on Chicago Bears bets. He said that for every 1 Minnestoa play on a parlay that they are getting Chicago 50 times.
He also said that Chicago and Cincinatti have become the 2 public favorites so far this year. They are also very heavy on the 2 favorites (New England and Atlanta) for Sunday and Monday nite football games.

That means nothing to me. I'm as contrarian as the next guy, but I know neither the credibility of the source, nor how large of a segment of the betting population they are seeing.

That would bother me if the line stayed on 3, but it is moving up fast, which IMO says the books do not have a lean towards Minny.
Minny had no sacks last week. If they can't put pressure on Grossman he'll pick them apart. And Carolina sacked Johnson 5 times last week. Hard to see how he doesn't get buried. Contrarian or not, I jsut don't see how Miny matches up. If they can keep it close maybe the crowd can oull them through, but it could just as easily get out of hand for the Bears IMO.
Easy winner...Huge $$$ days don't even matter when your team loses though on a shitty lucky ass fumble. No way bears win if they gotta go 80 yards. Minny showed me they are the better team though...I like our chances for the rest of the season...nobody goes unbeaten.viking611 said:
