August 19, 200520 yr 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.
August 19, 200520 yr Like Homer Simpson's quoit about Krusty The Clown's promise of spitting in every 50th "Krusty Burger",...... "I like those odds!"
August 19, 200520 yr 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.
