New system for 2008

Tried this toward the end of 07' and it worked pretty well so here goes.

Theory: As teams cover or lose to the spread week after week Vegas adjust the line so that there are very few long streaks. Same for totals. What I am doing is betting teams that have long streaks (W-L) (Over or Under) end those streaks because of line adjustments.

Money Management: Start with $100 units and continue unless you lose $1000 in which case you double to $200 units until you have recovered the $1000 and then return to $100. Do this to a max of $400 if you were to lose at level two.

I will play the best 10 games in these categories each week.
Good Luck if you follow.

Washington
New England
Jax/Tenn under
NO/TB under
Dallas
Dall/Clev over
Carolina
Det/Atl. under 2 units (both are plays on under so counts as 2 plays)
GB/Minn under

just a question or more of a thought, but seeing as san diego was 2-0 o/u shouldnt you have faded that. that would have made it a no play because the jets were 0-2 o/u. i was on the over as well for my own reasons so congrats but just some food for thought.

In these cases I go back to last year and the Jets had 4 unders to close last year so I went with the over.
