Re: === OFFICIAL November -- December 2007 CHATTER THREAD ===
Does anyone see value in Redskins -5.5? I'm a homer but I think the team might be able to rally around each other and play for Sean Taylor's memory.
Is this kind of thing overrated? Thanks in advance.

The Bills are still supposed to be playing for Everett, and they've been blown in two straight games since his message.

They nearly beat Dallas and Tampa when he was not in the lineup.

He was out with injury already.

Re: === OFFICIAL November -- December 2007 CHATTER THREAD ===
I have a teaser question.
I'm looking at a 6 pt 2-team teaser right now. One of the teams, however would be the Eagles +3 (-130). Now, obviously I know that teasing across the zero is bad bad bad. My question is, since -3.0 (-130) is effectively -3.5 (-104), I'm getting close to 6.5 points for this teaser as I get the same 10/11 odds regardless of the vig of the games I'm teasing. How can I go about calculating whether or not this is worth it? Thanks for the help.

Re: === OFFICIAL November -- December 2007 CHATTER THREAD ===
Actually, I have another question.
A 6.5 pt two-team teaser pays out 5/6. That's worth 2 cents more than a 6 pt teaser. If I do the 6.5 pt teaser, I get paid a little less, but I cross the 3. It doesn't help me nearly as much in my other game. (Bears +2/+8.5), but I'm wondering if it'd be better to do a 6.5 pt teaser instead.
