Huge middle if you want it with First Fidelity

SHACK · Jan 7, 2007

First Fidelity has Giants + 7 -105 and Matchbook has Eagles -7 + 115 or there are several 6.5's out there.

'Scalp' is the correct term for this wager, not middle.

That's right. Word didn't come to me, and it's still there. Change the title if you wish.

This thread got me thinking, we should have a Glossarry of betting terms here at the RX.

That would be helpful. When people say "line" I never know whether they mean spread (handicap) or juice (odds) or both unless obvious from context.
