Go Astros!

What you conclude is bookies set the odds. That was the discussion. Deflecting the topic is, again, WTF-Like .. and talking shit about a different topic is classic internet bullshit. So WTF is full of shit according to you .... again ... not every Astros fan bets on the Astros and vice versa. So from where do they get their information about who is a good pitcher and who bats well in a given situation? From the "bookie"????

So that's how you "play" sports ... call the "bookie" and ask where to place your bet????

Or better yet: Call your "bookie" and ask him who is going to be pitching for the Dodgers, what their 7th game experience is, and what their 7th game record is .... at home with the Dodgers. Then ask your "bookie" what the batting averages are of the Astros hitters against the Dodgers' starter and "closers" for today's game! Who does your "bookie" say to bet on for game 7?

Go pretend with someone else. I'm not impressed (nor are my friends!)

But just for you, here’s a link:

Now watch the nightly news to get your “steam” on the game tonight. Maybe you’ll get the odds from George Stephanoupolis. Or maybe you can try to figure out how to drive around some college campus.

I think the world outside of LA will be pulling for Houston tonight.

Astros need to hit Darvish again. period.

from bambino's link...


Who Sets The Line?
.... The initial line, also known as an ‘overnight line’ or ‘opening line’, is an educated guess of a starting point that oddsmakers believe will get equal action from bettors on both sides. Oddsmakers are often the brightest minds in the sportsbook and know all about the public perception of teams along with key statistics bettors use to make their picks.

WTF reminds me of something I heard when chat rooms first got popular: there were more "commercial pilots" in the chat rooms than the FAA had issued licenses.

Carry on with AssUp and WTF. Birds of a feather!!!

Here is LL at his 'Yacht Club'.

Everyone stood for the National Anthem. Off to a great start. Play ball!!!!!

Darvish shitting the bed early. Fucking up his bid for another big contract.

Only 1/2 is on Darvish, the other half was a bad infield throw.
But my phone was lighting up with folks wanting to up the bet.
Hmm, the phone went quiet. A Dodger on 2nd.

Game over. Springer crushed another lollipop.I would have pulled Darvish after the first inning. He didn’t have it.

OK, yeah, pull his ass.
My phone is lighting up again.

Yeah, but these are big league pitchers. No friggin way they should be cold at the first inning. But opps...

Now the Astro's put in Peacock to play the use the bullpen cycletron strategy, to keep fresh pitchers on the mound so LAD gets zero more chances against a tired pitcher. But do they have enough pitchers? (yeah they should be able to pull this off.)

It’s the 7th game of the WS!!!! They’re professional managers too. Should have pulled Darvish sooner. I watched the MLB channel pregame show. They said they would pull Darvish if he didn’t have it and hand the ball to Kershaw. The Astros have a 5 spot. Should be more than enough.
