The spread is easier to use as an example. But mathematically, the money line works exactly the same. Small movements in the money line do not create a large enough edge, and due to massive variance you are going to need a very large sample of large line shifts before you can say for sure you are beating the game.
Randall, I understand math better than you do, and the psychology of and common fallacies of gambling. I can recognize rationalization and small sample sizes Those are really the only tools necessary to see that you are totally wrong about this. (Also, I highly doubt that many football or basketball bettors refuse in principle to bet point spreads. People are too degen in real life.)
