I'm definitely not humouring you
I think it's great to read your in-site into a sport i like to watch when possible . I went to Wembley back in the 80's to see the 1st NFL game played in this country, i think it was Browns v Eagles
( not sure now) !! Any way that was when i followed the game on Channel 4, and we had a great day out .
It was also a time when i liked betting the spread on these games but along the way horse racing and then greyhounds took over . The one thing i remember from a betting point was, like yourself, if you followed what was happening with certain players some bets were 'nailed on' !!
glk mate and keep us informed
