Agreed, that's only fair.
Boston Red Sox 14-5 Cleveland Indians 3-2 Colorado Rockies 11-10
But I'll update as soon as the oddsmakers recalculate for the missing indians

Odds given are 1:1 or it's canceled.
Your choice.

AL vs NL [Re: 2end4]

Hey guys, just want to chime in about the AL vs NL debate.
There is a great baseball article website: www.hardballtimes.com
In July a guy wrote a 3 part series discussing AL vs NL, and it is pretty heavy on statistical analysis but worth the read to all of you talking trash on the forum. Here they are: 1;2;3
The final chunk of paragraphs in article 3 will sum it up for anyone who doesn't want to read them all.
Either way, the Rox have had an amazing streak, even beating Arizona while getting out hit. If a bunch of people debate about a series like Sox vs Rox, some will be right of course..but honestly, there are many wildcards going into this series and no one knows how stuff will panout. Rox have had over a week off from baseball, Sox pitchers pitching at Coors? Rox hitters not hitting vs Arizona and Sox hitters hitting too much vs Indians (regression man for both teams).
I'm Pumped -- need more baseball fans in florida to enjoy the game with though.

lol "Note that we are eliminating the DH and pitcher-hitting in the data as well as all games involving the Rockies (at home and on the road)."
I guess that settles this debate

I'd say that's considered welching.

(FYI - It's spelled "welshing", not "welching")
The odds were never discussed, automatically making them 1:1.
If you wish to cancel your bet, you may. I wouldn't consider it welshing.

well then I choose to cancel my bet. I naturally assumed anyone who publicly announces "I'm taking all bets" at least has the good sportsmanship to give correct odds on the bets, but that must not be the case. I'm not willing to bet 1:1 odds on a team that are (at last count) 3:1 underdogs. I'll take my money somewhere where I'll have fair betting.

Okay, your bet's canceled, wuss.
I'm not a bookie and not responsible for "odds" set by bookies.
Since you concede that the Rockies are "underdogs", you're obviously admitting that they'll probably lose, which is why you're canceling your foolish bet. Wuss!

no, I'm canceling my bet because if they win I'll get $30 from you, or $90 from an honest bookie. wuss!

Dude, they're gonna lose and you'd rather pay a bookie than me, if you're foolish enough to make a bet, that is, which I doubt you will.

I understand where you're coming from. You'd have to be taking bets on both sides to be able to cover. Regardless of whether or not you believe the Sox are going to win there is the chance that they will not and you'd be fucked out of a good deal of money. No baseball series is a total lock.

Exactly!
If I were to take bets on both sides, so the losses cover the wins, I'd take odds, no problem, but I'd get banned for using the site for bookmaking.
Idiots don't get that.
Thank you, matt!

That's why when you bet on lines, not odds. Red Sox in (enter game amount here)

Colorado looks like a bunch of 5 year old kids trying to play tee ball against a bunch of 30 year old guys.. Hell, the Nationals would have put up a better fight than this. This is truly disgusting.
