AARGH! The lines keep changing away from what I want to bet!

I thought the Colts at -9.5 and the Panthers at +2.5 might swing a little better this morning so I waited to make a bet. Then the Colts moved to -10, the Panthers to +2, and then the Colts to -10.5. I knew if I bet then the Colts are going to end up winning by 10 and I am going to be really pissed. So I decided to wait it out and thought I might put some money on the Bears over 30.5. Well that line changed also. What do you guys think? Are these coming down at all or will they keep climbing? Before anyone says a half point doesn't make a difference my buddy bought a 1/2 point for his Redskins bet yesterday and saved himself a $100 loss. (I kept telling him it was a horrible bet, but at least he broke even)

What I really need is more 'locks' from Astrosfan!

That line is way too high for the Colts. It should be about 5 or 6, but people are just irrational about the Colts this year.

You're probably right, but combine the Colts great season with my intense hatred of the Steelers and the 9 points don't look like much. I think Carolina is almost certain to win, but still think a home playoff team should be giving more than 2 points.

And besides, didn't Tecmo Bowl have the Steelers winning in a blowout?

Live wagering. Just got the Colts for -3.5 right after the Steelers pass and before the fumble. I hope I understand how this works!
