I, too, played against the Swamp Giants.  When I bet on Cleveland the line was the Giants -1 and the total was 35.  When I saw the line had moved to Pick and the total to 36 an hour before game time, I got ill.  I knew my bet was in trouble.  Neither trend above applied anymore.  No wonder the Giants won!  It wasn't my fault that I lost betting Cleveland.  It was the fault of the other bettors who moved the line on both the side and total.  Even though Cleveland lost by 3, I know that if the public could have just left the Giants as a one point favorite and the total at 35 where the linemaker set it, then Cleveland would have won the game.  DAMN THOSE OTHER BETTORS!  :-)

The Giants won but both trends remained unchanged.  Amazing!  What are the odds?    

Correction:  All three trends remained unchanged.
