Apparently they are going ahead with the game. Sunday February 5th, Houston USA.
I'm seeing New England favored by a field goal.
I heard one gambling-related story this week - which made me feel nostalgic for my days of wagering professionally.
Apparently, the New England Patriots are designated as the away team and will therefore call the opening coinflip. BUT apparently the New England Patriots always call heads. Every coinflip they have called for two years without exception ---> heads.
But Bookmaker posted a prop on what the coinflip caller would call. Odds were even money, heads/tails. Which makes sense in principle.
But no. They got bombarded with heads bets. Oddsmakers are supposed to know more than the players.
Not this time.
Oops.
