You could go to the Greek or some other book and bet on somebody to win. OR, you could go to WSEX or (my favorite) Matchbook (MB) and bet the candidates to win or lose at prices that you set through a normal bid and ask exchange process. You make an offer at a price you want and if somebody takes the other side, you have action. If the price moves in your favor later, then you can offer to sell your position and cash out.

Kansas City +13 @ San Diego (Greek)
I'm buying this on the Sunday night opener because I see value in this number and I don't expect this to be around next weekend.

I had Yankees under 98 wins. That one is a winner. I also am sitting on a Detroit Tigers UNDER 89 season wins ticket. They have 87 wins with a three game series vs. the White Sox left this weekend. Thus, 2 Tigers wins is a push; 3 is a loser. The series is meaningless for both teams. I probably won't hedge unless the Tigers win on Friday and I get a nice + line for Saturday or Sunday.

The Washington Redskins are owned by 23% of teams in NFL.com leagues and they have a nice matchup against the New York Giants. I expect this to be a hard fought game against a division rival but all signs point to the Redskins getting the W. Skins are controlling the clock nicely with the running game, couple that with the Giants being banged up on the defensive side of the ball should help to keep their offense on the ...

My two locks of the week are to bench Miami & plug in Cincinnati. Miami's team DEF had an ADP of 5 so they should be rostered in all leagues and have been drafted by someone who would consider them a must start each and every week. In Week 2 the Dallas Cowboys come to town and I say bench them. The Miami offense is putrid so their defense is going to be on the field a hell of a lot in the ...

They won and covered as road favorites this past Saturday at Vandy, even though some of the players had mentioned Arkansas publicly and seemingly were looking ahead. That was a danger sign to me, but they won anyway, which is a good sign for Saban that he kept his team's focus. I'm buying this early because I love the situation and I like the price.
