We need soccer (football) petey. NOW!!!! (haha)

 

[bbwMax]

Yeh i agree. We need a football one

The new games use point spreads. Baseball does money lines and not point spreads, so we have to do a different kind of game for it. I'm pretty sure that "football" doesn't have point spreads either.</p>

[bbwMax]

What do you mean by Points spread?

 

[Petey]

It's like by how many points a team has to win by or lose less than, as there are obvious teams when one should beat the other easily. </p>

I played when I was in germany and they had all kinds of them. But the most common ones are the ones you just choose the team you think will win and if they do you'll get that qoute, or you could say there will be a tie and so on.</p>

Also you could do what you guys are talking about, say x team will win by 2+ goals. It was fun though haha. (my bro won 500 euros)</p>

Point spread.</p>

If team A plays team B and A is expected to win, the point spread will be minus some score for A and plus for B. After the game is complete, you add (or subtract) the spread from the actual score and get a new "score" that is used to determine the winner.</p>

Picking without a point spread is rather simple - one team usually should obviously win. But with the point spread as a handicap, it becomes a decision about whether team A is a touchdown better than B or not.</p>
