    I will also bet on Ambrose + Allmendinger to beat any 2 drivers from the same team you wish to nominate head to head. (ties push) LMK who and we can negotiate the odds.
    Give me prices for Hamlin+Martin or Hamlin+Dale Jr.

    they aren't the same team... but we can go EVENS on either of those I think?

    Sorry, I got confused. I was meaning to say Gordon+Martin or Gordon+Dale Jr.

    I got stuck thinking about Hamlin for some reason.

    I chose Gordon based off of the fact that I'm betting him HTH vs. Ambrose anyway.

    -110 with Martin and -125 with Junior suit you?

    Guess not.

    I would've just bet the rest on that but since I can't I'll place a bet on existing lines you have:

    Kyle Busch to beat Ambrose +100, risk 50

    Ambrose doing well and hanging in there.

    Looks like a top 10 finish. Also Allmendinger.

    Thanks.

    Sorry about the outcome.


    How the hell do you keep collecting trivia badges btw??

    Would you have got this one?

    I haven't got past the first question since July I think.

    That is a really easy one. Karl Malone and John Stockton were the core of the Utah Jazz for a very long time. But I suppose non-Americans might not know about the Utah Jazz.

    I'm actually in a big of a trivia slump. Today I lost on the third question, which asked what year a Red Sox team won 100 games. It wasn't recent.

    I actually did associate Malone with the Jazz, but thought the question was phrased to suggest it was some team other than the main one he played for.

    The questions have definitely become harder. I used to grab 50 every 2nd or 3rd try.

    To my recollection, the only team Malone ever played for other than the Jazz was the Lakers, and that was at the end of his career (later than '97).

    The question was phrased in such a way to leave it open to whether it's a trick question or not.

    I know it isn't cool to whine about the trivia questions. But these must be really difficult for even a US sports fanatic!? Makes me wonder what your brain is full of to keep pulling out 175s Yis.

    Opti, I got out on the second question today.

    In 2005, who had a 3.48 ERA for the Angels?



    I picked Paul Byrd. He had a 3.74 ERA that year for the Angels.

    Unreal.
