I think it's the easiest sport to beat, and has the most "professional" players. Two main reasons: (1) HUGE slates of games. It's much easier to pass on any specific game for a better opportunity. (2) Focus- one can select leagues or teams to track performance on whereas Vegas has so many games to worry about there's a much better chance that your numbers/analysis are better than theirs (which is virtually impossible to do in the NFL.)

a pro player can have success betting college hoops , no question , in my opinion the avg player does not beat the books in college hoops , they tend to play more games than they should and chase , there are fewer games in the nfl and nba to chase on

definitely agree with this. as far as I'm concerned though, there's no point in betting if you are just out there throwing darts.
