Number of points over or under the expected total. So, say, the Lakers play the Heat. The total number of points in that game is predicted to be 200. If the final score is Heat 95, Lakers 80, anyone who bet the under wins because there were only 175 points scored in the game.

YAY on last root canal, Kristen.

It makes me sad that IM doesn't have a little :rollseyes: emoticon. I would use it every. five. minutes.

YAY! I still need to sit down and read the last one but hope springs eternal that I will have some time now that the party is over.
