    Vegas took 2k preseason bet on Burrows for Heisman 200-1

    Actually heard there were 2 bets but Jim Burrows placed one of them.... Joe's dad. That's pretty cool.

    Yeah good deal. Think if I was in their boots would buy a bit of insurance policy for Joe in case something goes wrong next game or 2 injury wise.

    hard to believe someone would dump 2k on burrows preseason, he'd done and showed absolutely nothing up till then

    Is it illegal for his dad to do that?

    Don't think it's illegal. Who was the golfer whose dad set up a bet in europe for his son to win a major? Rory maybe... now I have to look it up.

    "Golfers in the British Open can't bet on the tournament. Luckily for Rory's McIlroy's father, their dads can. Gerry McIlroy will be $171,000 richer after cashing in on a 200-pound ($341) bet he placed in 2004 that his son would win the British within 10 years."

    Also pretty cool. Hope they are both true!
