Article: Vegas Saints odds to win Super Bowl Surge in a matter of hours fueling speculation

This came up in my feed and proves my point about Vegas odds. People put way too much stock in Vegas odds. It’s probably because the majority of people lose money gambling, so they think that Vegas are geniuses. But in reality they don’t know jack and are guessing just like we are. Now they may put more work in their educated guess than the average gambler, but sharps are just as good as Vegas. That’s why when Vegas sees someone that wins at a high rate they either cut them off or cut their allowed play substantially.

This exact scenario played out last offseason with Aaron Rodgers and retirement. As soon as the Vegas odds went in favor of Rodgers retiring the entire world figured it was for sure happening.
