Wanna Bet? Bodog Lets You Wager on Length of Mike Vick Suspension, Not Falcons' Record
Demonstrating yet again the strength of the link between gambling and the NFL, it turns out that even the length of Michael Vick's NFL suspension is something that bettors can wager on:
Exactly 18 hours and 14 minutes after the news broke that Vick had been indicted on dogfighting charges, an e-mail arrived from bodog.com, an offshore gambling site, setting odds on Vick's future.
How long will Michael Vick be suspended by the NFL?
No suspension: 5/1
1-4 games: 4/1
5-8 games: 2/1
9-12 games: 1/1
13-16 games: 2/3
Interestingly, that might be the only thing you can bet on related to the Falcons right now. Because of the uncertainty surrounding Vick, Bodog is not accepting any wagers on the Falcons' win total or the winner of the NFC South, even though it allows bets on the other teams and the other divisions.
