    You aren't betting on which teams exactly, but instead against the spread, meaning if you bet on a team with a spread of -8, that means they must win by at least 8 points. If its +8, then that team must either win, or lose by less than 8 points. All spreads are in relation to the away team. Makes betting harder and more strategic!

Let me know what ya think!
    hey,
    I'm doing something similar and I'm stuck on generating a schedule. Do you think you can help me.
    thanks

    Holy @#$%#$ this thread is old! Yeah, sorry, but I haven't worked on this program in so long I couldn't tell yeah how I set up the scheduling algorithm. I'm afraid you'll just have to look at the code, but I warn you it was when I first started programming and, um, I was kind of anti-commenting back then!

    Oops, sorry, thought the code was included with the original download. Unfortunately I lost the code a year ago when my computer crashed so I don't have anything to send. Sorry!
