Go Astros!

Some of the pundits belittling and marginalizing the Astros are "revisiting" their assessments, and beginning to conclude the Astros are "for real" and can compete against the best the National League has to offer. When will you?

Why do you do so much Monday morning QB'ing. Why didn't you defend them Before the Series started?

These two teams are almost evenly matched on the field. They've shown that. Regardless of the winner this WS will be discussed as a "standard" for entertainment for a long time .... with so many records set to be broken .... and so many "predictions" being shattered. One might as well bet on a coin toss. Whoever does not win should clearly not be embarrassed by their performance.

And yes many of us BEFORE the series said it was an even matchup ....that is why we bet it at the odds the bookies had set which was for ever 100 dollars you bet , you could win 155.

Please quit digging yourself into that hole of acting like you know baseball...

He can’t help himself. Everything he says, does and represents is a lie.

A true Houston fan expects no love or respect from the very dishonest fake sports media...SAD.

Budman I'm willing to let you out of our bet if you like...

I wasn't really trying to get you banned for 6 months. I just thought the Stros would win and wanted to back them with more than just $$$$.

Let me know if you want to call it off. . . it is not looking very good for you right now and I really do not want to see ya banned.

O, he’ll remain silent. he’ll lost the bet but claim he hadn’t been online and didn’t see the offer.

Then he’ll welsh on the bet.

Or something like that. Originally Posted by Yssup Rider

I see you are still posting stupid shit and criticizing others for typo's. When you continue to do that you look foolish. Particularly when you make numerous spelling and grammar errors. You ever hear about glass houses?

So how's your Jonestown anniversary celebration plans coming? Please don't be ashamed to ask for koolaid donations. I know your welfare check doesn't go very far. Please go join your boyfriend in the afterlife. I'm sure he doesn't miss you and neither will anyone here.

If the Astros don't win it all, they have no reason to hang their heads!

Why would they? They were underdogs. Have played hard. If they happen to lose, I’m sure they will be really disappointed. But no reason to hang their heads.

I never “marginalized” the Astros. It’s pretty hard to win over 100 games in the regular season. You can’t be a fluke to do that. I said I would bet the Astros and take the odds. I didn’t think the Dodgers were any better. They just had Home field advantage to start the series. The Vegas odds are what they are and have nothing to do with the MSM. In the future, refrain from putting words in my mouth or portray what I’m thinking. You’re factually false.

In the run up to the election they were almost .75 that Clinton would win ... and that was driven by some "secret" poll Vegas had?

Actually, the betting public establishes the odds on anything you bet on. The betting public establishes the favorites based on money wagered. The media has nothing to do with it. Vegas tries to get even money on both sides because they make the fig no matter who wins. I don’t know what planet you’re living on. The bottomline, the Astros were a clear underdog. The money line and odds clearly established that. Not me. I would have taken the Astros for favorable odds. I didn’t bet on Trump monetarily, I did bet on him in this forum and voted for him. I’ll bet on the “dog” more than the favorite. If you have any experience in sports betting, if you you the underdog, and take better odds, you’ll be a winner over time. Even SnitchFuck knows this. But I wouldn’t bet on it.

From where does the "betting public" get their information on which they base their decision to bet on one team or the other?

From their individual "scouting" efforts during the season?

Like I posted: You didn't really post that did you?

From where did "Vegas" get 72% odds HillariousNoMore would win?

Let me answer: From the MAINSTREAM MEDIA~! POLLS!

I guess that’s how you operate. As far as sports betting, I use my knowledge of the teams by watching them play. What the odds or the line is. The Steelers have been a terrible bet when they favored, or giving points. Most times it’s better to take the “dog” or the points. They can lose the game but you can win the bet because of the points given. Do you now understand how this works? It has nothing to do with the MSM or marginalizing anything. Just who you think is going to win based on odds or the betting line.

That's a nice gesture. Thanks. Tell you what I'll do. If the Astros win tonight I'll honor the bet. If the Dodgers win I'll offer you the same "get out of bet" free card.

Naaa, no need to honor the bet....I just wanted to see if you'd bet. You did and that is good enough for me, like I said my goal was not to keep you from posting for 6 months.

So no bet Budman ... and I'm not trying to get out of the bet either, I think we will win one more game and I think it will be sooner than later.

There are times when the number one team in the country is a 'dog to say the number 5 team in the country....that is because Vegas is trying to get the exact same amount of money bet on both sides.

You need to STFU, you are making a fool of yourself.
