how does handicapping motivation or team hunger come into your overall handicapping. I feel it to be very important....
three examples I can think of off of the top of my head are
1) rogers clemens performance tonight after learning of death of his mom (player, playing with 'meaning').... Team wants to support Roger.
2) Brett Favres performance when he found out his parent died, (same factors as above).
3) New Orleans Saints performance when finally coming together on the fireld in week 1 as 7 point underdogs winning straight up. (Team playing with purpose after the hurricane).
