Now you've gone to lying

I do not...but you two numbnuts seem to want to think so.
"gone to"? The only way he can remotely look marginal intelligent is by lying. And he's got Bambie into it also, who has made himself the Fifth Amiga on here. Apparently, these two goofballs actually believe the bookies write the news stories and stats on the teams! Do their bookies tell them the batting averages, strike outs, and RBI's? BEFORE placing bets!!!

Nobody thinks or has said that bookies write the sports stories...
Team stats are actually provided by MLB and reporters use those stats. Anybody can go online and look them up.
Bookies take bets based on odds provided by odds makers.
I thought I have already explained that to you like ten times.
