Re: Home advantage and capping.
I disagree digdeep. I actually think the opposite is true more often then not.
Variance in play or inconsistent play will bring a team closer to mediocrity. It will make a good team worse and a bad team better. It will bring them closer to .500 and more likely to cover as a dog or not cover as a favorite (unless this is already factored into the line). I think that for teams that are just flat out inconsistent for any reason, home field advantage/disadvantage will actually apply less, and what they bring to the table that day will more then likely be the determining factor.
