Both of you are correct about that. But Vegas does have major influence on college and pro football. Look at the injury report. There is no good reason to have that information made public....as it pertains to sports. That information could actually be very damaging to a player. There is only one reason for the injury report and that is for the spread. The NFL actually tells teams how often they have to update the list. Vegas has ways of getting what they want. And if they want more weeknight games, they can get them.
I would think The big money guys in Vegas would like to keep the injury list from the public. It would be great to be the only one with that info.
