I almost never bet on my favourite teams, but I do quite often bet against them if I think the opposition are a genuine chance and are over the odds. Last year, I did very well betting against the Lions and the Broncos on the line. In a previous thread, I outlined just how poorly those two teams went 'against the spread' last year.

By the way, speaking of the World Cup, I actually backed England 12 months before the tournament even began at the very juicy odds of $5.50. However, when Australia made the final, I was hoping to lose that bet. I may be a punter, but I'm an Australian supporter first! :smile:
