Default Suggestions for Sports Betting Forum FAQ

It has been my goal to have a FAQ stickied for this forum within the next few weeks, just in time for kickoff of football season. I know a few questions for sure will be things like how to read lines, what books to read, etc.

Please use this thread to post any other questions that you think belong in there. Feel free to post answers as well, to your questions or to the questions of others. I will collect all the questions and answers, clean it up, and then repost.

But please don't come in here and start any topics with any logic or thoughtout ideas. It is enough with Tech knowing his s-it. Now, you might post something worth reading. I won't be able to take it.
