I like it when textcritic gets riled up like this.

The whole system works the way it does because most people gambling do so because they want to win money, not because they are simply cheering for their team using their wallet. No doubt you can find inefficiencies in the betting line once in a while but dealing in absolutes that small market teams are always undervalued? I would need to see some hard core data to get behind that. There are a whole lot of people trying to make a living by gambling on sports that would have figured that out by now.
