they dont offer money lines for games <3 or over 10 or so. also set higher/lower than other sites depending on public distribution. it also takes them forever to put new lines up. and they put max limits on bets. usually over a $1000 you have to have approved by the sb "team"

i have used in the past and prefer their website layout to others honestly. i think 5 dimes layout sucks.

You kind of pay for what you get in life, but I understand the frustration from your point of view. I tried to put more than $500 on the Rockets over win total last season...significantly more as that was the one I saw as the easiest gimme...and they denied me every time.

But you want a user friendly site with a great layout and easy entry/exit method, use Bovada if you're more casual like I am 99% of the time. They aren't catering to the hardcore sports gamblers. They are catering to the more casual gambler.

Also, the AD 16/1 is another terrible, terrible bet. This isn't the "Most Gifted Player" award. Even if he made a jump and we made the playoffs in the middle seeds, it wouldn't be enough. We'd have to finish top 3, 4 at worst with a 52+ win season close to the 3 seed, to even have a chance. That's...not very likely.

If you want to bet on a hometown guy, Brees at 25/1 (considering he's never won and the NFC doesn't have that dominant team) and Guice at 12/1 (RBs/QBs win Heismans) are much, MUCH better futures bets imo.
