It's late. I'm drunk. I've no idea who to bet on. I'd be better off betting now while I have no sense of what is going on, but isn't that always the case.

The bookie should be able to move the line. But until we can get 500 peeps viewing the bookie forum at a time, like the joose board, no one will give a shit about us. But then again, the bookies can not handle that many bets without some other type of currency.
