Wow, why is it so high? wind blowing out?

**Illusion** · 08-01-06, 11:05 AM

It's supposed to be 100 degrees here with the wind blowing out. I was gonna double up my bet from last night but now I am not so sure.

seems like with that # so high ...books are begging for people to play the under

**Illusion** · 08-01-06, 12:10 PM

Total is 12.5 under -101 at pinny now.

**sergfro** · 08-01-06, 12:24 PM

I think the number is too high, but the over is the only way I could play it. Today is supposed to be the last super hot day, so I will know more closer to gametime.

damn i wish it was still 13

i would take a small chance on the under at 13

so much emphasis put on the weather that everyone is aware of it being a major factor and i think people will adjust more than normally

The weather certainly plays into it. But the other factors include the D-Backs being on a bit of a tear and coming off a 6-HR evening. Not to mention, the wind could be blowing in and tonight's starters, Claudio Vargas for the Snakes and Rich Hill for the Baby Bears, would still be targets for offense.

Ill, Its time to step outside and give us a weather report. Which way is the wind blowing and how's your deoderant holding up?

Total is 12 under -109 right now.

I will step outside and report back shortly.

It's still hot as shit, but the wind is blowing west/southwest. This is tough, I am gonna play the over but for only 3 units.

**darkghost** · 08-01-06, 07:00 PM

Thanks. I'm in on the over for a unit and took the Cubs earlier +112 for a unit.

Man this was depressing if you had the over. At 11 runs after five innings and then only one more run the rest of the game? wtf... My luck however was much better. I had the Marlins to win. Walk off home run went in my favor and it was the marlins first in several years.
