well I would but I have no idea who deleted it. I'm more interested in a public dicsussion since

a) point spreads are discussed here all the time

and

b) all kinds of random SB stuff (like beverages) is being discussed.

if it's personal they should just say so

I see one of the threads in the visiting section. Perhaps the other was merged with it?

ok thanks. I have no idea why the first was moved to the Visiting section. if you still think I'm not a Pats fan, that's pathetic, I've been being making SB plans in another thread.

I even talked about a pro-Pats bet in that thread

I think if they allow too much gambling talk to harbor in the main forum, it will start getting out of hand. Yes some of us are interested in gambling elements, but from a purist fan perspective it probably has no place in the main forum. Very general gambling discussion seems fine to me, but when you start listing prop after prop, point spreads etc, I think it delves into something else that's better suited for another sub-forum.

I can understand that, but the talk was confined to 1 thread.

and earlier this year there have been various, various threads based solely on "largest point spread ever" etc etc
