During 2004 I believe that you would have lost $345. But, speaking as a Red Sox fan, betting against the Yanks for a whole year is easily worth that much...

with a 10 cent line (yank games go higher with lines going to 20 cents etc. after -180) you would expect to lose 810 dollars on any given tean that would be a break even point per se. bet 10 games lose 50 bucks... win 500 lose 550. bet 100 lose 500 162 lose 810. So the yanks DID BETTER THAN expected but still a loser.

Could we weed out the times they were -300 or higher? Perhaps (if we assume they hardly ever lost those) that would move it enough to make it a winner? O would it be those "hardly ever" times that would do you in? Hmmm...

These are the games you would win the most on. The ones you weed out are the -140 and less.

My records indicate that you would have been a winner. If you played them every time they were a dog you would have won 9.7 units. As favorites they were -5.25 units. Those numbers are raw...no weeding out of any games.
