Rays to beat the White Sox in the division series

Dbldown11 · 10-02-08, 10:58 AM

You're willing to put -170 on a team that has never been to the playoffs, and is made up mostly all young players beating a white sox team that won the world series 3 years ago and is made up of grizzled vets? Im not saying they wont win, but -170 is just stupid.

that's the line on bodog. Perfectly willing to see other lines.

I have a feeling there are better lines out there.

we've seen this a million times..that team that get hott! and is on 0 rest comes out swinging...I really like the whitesox in game 1 and to take the series...the rays are a fluke and the sox are white hott right now

yisman · 10-02-08, 01:23 PM

The Rays are not a fluke. How the hell can you say they're a fluke?

I'll bet you they win the series.

ryanXL977 · 10-02-08, 01:28 PM

anyone who says they are a fluke doesnt watch baseball

polishkielbasa10 · 10-02-08, 02:19 PM

ya a fluke..I've watched more baseball this season than the both of u put together..How many games did they win in their last at bat or a bullpin collapse. The Yankees baltimore and jays were all down this season, and the sox are the sox...we'll see what happens when they ultimately get whooped in the first round...I'm not a chicago fan but know what always happens to teams like the rays..take the cash to the bank on game 1 and the series

Are you crazy? I watch as many games as possible via MLB.tv. 2 or 3 a day in the regular season. I assure you that you don't watch more baseball than me and ryan put together, because you don't watch more baseball than just me.

You're wrong about the Rays. They're not a fluke and you're a windbag because you won't put your money where your mouth is.

I'll put money that the Rays take this series. They're a better team and certainly not a fluke.

ryanXL977 · 10-02-08, 03:39 PM

the guy is an idiot
i guarantee he doesnt watch baseball
rays play great d, great manager, great pitching, and a great pen

162 game fluke

idiot

Guys I wouldnt touch either side of this one. 170 is WAY too much to lay on the Rays without seeing them play a postseason game yet. The White Sox are lucky to be here and have NOTHING. I think Tampa Bay will take the series, but I'm not betting the series just yet.

bosterosoy · 10-02-08, 04:50 PM

Good call loved this play, wish I would have put more down on the rays. You can not call them a fluke after bringing it for a 100+ game season in a tough division where even the Jays were decent.

Strongly disagree.

You're an idiot.

Dbldown11 · 10-02-08, 05:01 PM

this series is far far far from over....The sox lost one game with their worst pitcher on the mound. I thought hed come through with a big one but he deffinately did not haha. But the rest of the White Sox rotation is very solid. Series is not over yet

yisman · 10-02-08, 05:02 PM

it's never over after Game 1. You can take a lot away from it, though. It's going like I thought it would.

Vazquez is their 4th best starter, but that's part of why I took the Rays. The Sox had to start Vazquez Game 1.

ryanXL977 · 10-02-08, 05:08 PM

series aint over, i didnt say that
but the chisox cannot create runs and its gonna be hard to win with some of the scrubs they play like griffey et al

yisman · 10-04-08, 07:20 PM

ryanXL977 · 10-04-08, 08:40 PM

didnt some idiot say tb is a lfluke

yisman · 10-07-08, 11:14 PM

bump

I.R.B · 10-08-08, 01:20 AM

If you said the would win in 4 games that would have been better...

yisman · 10-08-08, 01:46 AM

hey, was trying to keep the bet simple!

Reason I had to bump it is because I cited it as a best bet and a couple of not so sharp bettors said it was a stupid bet.
