That might be the dumbest post I've seen on the RX in the last month. What book doesn't move his lines? Just post an opener and sit there? :nopityA:

And if a local doesn't book to his clientele he's not going to be in business for very long. Books in Dallas damn sure don't have the Cowboys at -6- when they can put it out and be long at -7-. Do you think any of the locals were using -13- yesterday vs Jax? Why post a lower price when they'll play the game at a higher price?

Bingo!.....you may not have to move the lines for 97% of the players, but it makes no sense to give the remaining 3% license to steal.
