Thanks Dave!

Glenal has been all over the place this week, I would have backed him on thursday/friday if anyone would have given me some odds :D

Thanks for promoting the league and rounding up yet more participants this week - keep them coming!

Cheers!

There's side betting in this league, too?! :)

And just what odds would have taken? 2000:1? 100:1? 5:1?

How about this week. What do you think the odds are stay No. 1 this week, if everyone else does what they're normally capable of doing or better? Personally, I wouldn't take those odds, but you're welcome, too. :)

One day if I get time, I plan on "booking" it... I did a small amount of that right out of college, so I can handicap it pretty well! But don't be like Pete Rose and bet on yourself, Asher might have to kick you out and suspend you from the Hall of Fame!

Oh, poor Pete. As much cheating that goes on in baseball and other sports, I don't know. I think the guy has done his time. Maybe now that Selig has been gone for a few years, maybe Pete gets in. I hope they don't deny him while he's alive just to do it posthumously. He was the epitome of the working man's player and despite the gambling, I feel he deserves better.

That's the former Reds fan talking (not really that much into baseball now).

As for me betting on myself, not likely to happen, so I think I'm safe. I'm more likely to get kicked out for other reasons, like being late to the party. :)

haha... funny on last point! And I agree.. We have much worse human beings already enshrined. I think it is personal when it comes to Pete. Even if one hates the man, you can't take away the kind of ballplayer he was. And he certainly was amazing throughout his entire playing career!

That is funny, that is exactly what I want to do one day... put out odds on your game... I think it would be fun (and of course all profits go to charity) :D
