    CRIS Should Be Embarrassed--Colorado -445 to Win the West

    Why bother putting up division odds? The stinking Red Sox who are floundering in last place, are a generous +115 to win the East.

    Looks like the Indians have the Central in the bag at +105.

    Hey CRIS: Get an Oddsmaker with a clue. Or start posting odds on teams Not to win the division.

    Usually odds on futures are horrible at CRIS.

    I dont understand why. When betting a future you lock your money for a long period, and in this time they can get interest on your money.

    If anything odds on futures should be higher. I would f.inst. gladly give odds 50/1 on any random NFL team to win the super bowl in 2050.

    I think there's a different between 39 years out and 5 months out.

    But I do agree that futures shouldn't be ridiculously juiced like this.

    It's why I don't bet them. You're getting double-popped. Your money is tied up for months, not earning any interest, and you're getting significantly increased vig in many cases.

    I liked Cris long ago, but they really dropped from my radar...too shitty odds on almost everything, this whole early lines thing is overrated too now that many books simply catched up.
    I guess they have enough idiots with deep pockets who still think this is a good book, otherwise i have no clue why they can afford to be so full of shit and hang odds that are nothing but robbery ALL THE TIME

    The Indians line moved from -105 to -315 to win the Central division after the Tigers loss Monday. I guess the clueless f-u-c-k at CRIS has decided the Indians have no competition in the Central division.

    Lines on Futures haven't been worth even looking at for several years, as there's never anything remotely acceptable.

    Combined with their ripoff cashout fees, and it's a pass.
