wouldn't the dogs have to have an edge since they're getting points__________?
not much interest in betting the pre-season and I don't recall every reading anything about it
I just tracked this year's pre-season and the dogs went 31-17
I'm well aware that doesn't prove anything - but still - pretty interesting

using covers.com I went back and tracked just under 300 pre-season games
covers doesn't have this data for every year but I was able to get 6 seasons
I tracked the dogs going 170-119_________winning at 58.8%___________about a 12% r.o.i.
