Texsox Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I was thinking that instead of listening to fans and paid talking heads, I'd see what the professionals who are paid to set the odds are thinking, plus what people who will fork over a credit card think. here's one link Seems like either we have a chance, or Sox fans are too generous in their investments.

I had a friend of mine place a bet at Wynn's in Vegas back in May. I have the Sox +800 to win it all and +400 to win the AL pennant. Not the best prices, seeing as it would have been many times that had he been in Vegas a month earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSNS-TV44 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Like Homer Simpson's quoit about Krusty The Clown's promise of spitting in every 50th "Krusty Burger",...... "I like those odds!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santo=dorf Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I'm not really a gambling man, but I wish I knew about this sote in the offseason. One site has us 25:1 to win the Pennant. I think that's worth putting $100 on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kane0730 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I got the Sox over at 82.5 wins. That bet has been in the bag since June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
