i don't put a lot of stock in it, but i admit i do look at it. thing is you can never know the hold/money that books are taking.
Most of the sites that say they are showing the way the public is betting are only getting info from a very small group of books, and if you know the list it's a bunch of books that aren't generally regarded as being top books. With that said, you are only seeing the number of bets going each way, not the money/hold.
i used to use sportbookspy and now it just has a direct link through the pregame website, no having to sign in and all that garbage.

i like sports insights, mainly because they have archives that go back to 2003. i was researching the other day and found that in the first 8 weeks in cfb last season the public was 11-0-1 when backing a road favorite by 80% or more. the public got buried in this situation the last few weeks. then i looked at 2007 and the angle was below 50%....but i've found a few interesting angles like that by having the ability to go back and look at stuff.
