Barack Obama (-700)
 
Sportsbook.com says you gotta bet $700 on Barack Obama to win $100. John McCain is +400. In other words, bet $100 On McCain to win $400.

This aint my daddy's America.

YEEHAW! I AM ****ING CRAZY!!!

Isaac 10-17-2008 09:47 PM

Long time no post!

Somehow I doubt McCain will win.

SacTown Chronic 10-17-2008 10:05 PM

So go bet heavily on McCain at 4-1. It might be the bargain of a lifetime.

cirquelover 10-17-2008 10:29 PM

You can seriously bet on anything now a days, can't you!?!

Where the frell have you been.

Ok, read all of Political Thoughts Part Deux, All About McCain, Yes We Can, and Debates of All Ilk, and then you may pariticipate in the last two contentious weeks of the insane election season here on the LoT.



I've really missed you, btw.

wendybeth 10-18-2008 12:30 AM

SacTown, you silly S.O.B.


Good to see ya- you've been missed.:cheers:

Motorboat Cruiser 10-18-2008 01:49 AM

LSPoorEeyorick 10-18-2008 07:01 AM

You!

I've been missing you. I just remember the good times from last election. (You know, the good times. Before we lost. So I'm not a betting woman anymore.)

How the hell are you?

Technically, betting on the outcome of an election is illegal.

And welcome back STC

SacTown Chronic 10-18-2008 08:04 AM

I'm good, LSPE. The family's good. It's been a tough year, though. But, with the exception of my brothers and their ongoing battles with crippling addictions, the storms have subsided and our family seems stronger for the experiences.

But that's a story for another thread or ten.



I think I'll probably pass on the archives, iSm (I've missed you, too. I've missed all of you.). Though I am curious, I admit, about what the LoT has to say about one Sarah Palin. And i cannot for the life of me imagine what scaeagles had to say about John Edwards and his senatorial schlong slinging. Aw heck, maybe I should take a quick peek at those threads.

SacTown Chronic 10-18-2008 08:15 AM

That's just silly, Kevin. Why even hold elections if we can't bet on the outcome? There would be absolutely no point to it.

Actually, not much.

Are you sitting down?

I'm an avid Obama supporter, Sac. I've been campaigning for him and have contributed the maximum allowable to his campaign.

OK, I'm not exactly being truthful.

But I have decided there is no way in hell McCain gets my vote.

wendybeth 10-18-2008 09:12 AM

Sac- the most important thing we've learned is that Scaeagles reads the National Enquirer.:evil:

scaeagles 10-18-2008 09:16 AM

But I prefer the Weekly World News.

lashbear 10-18-2008 04:01 PM

Welcome Back !!!
 
Good to see you again.

So.. what are you doing for halloween THIS year?

...I can find THAT photo, ya know...

Betty 10-19-2008 03:55 PM

Hey SacTown! Nice to see you round these parts again. :) In fact, your name has been mentioned in a few threads wondering where the heck you've been.

Hope you stick around awhile.

tracilicious 10-20-2008 10:06 AM

I thought that maybe all those herbs had caused you to forget about us. Welcome back!

Betty 10-20-2008 12:34 PM

(and then we never heard from him again). :(

Hopefully just kidding.

So then why is it on sportsbook? Is it just an odds kind of thing?

I seriously don't know. I remember seeing in Vegas that you could bet on stuff I never thought possible though!

Kevy Baby 10-20-2008 10:02 PM

The sports books probably show odds for lots of thing that you can't actually bet on.

The Oscars is another thing that comes to mind that they show odds for that you can't bet on. In the case of the Oscars, it isn't illegal, but the casinos won't take a bet on something where it is POSSIBLE to know what the outcome is early.

Heh, my computer crashed and I made the mistake of taking it in for repair instead of fixing it myself. Took forever. I certainly hope to be around here more often than i have been.



Kevin, i don't think Sportsbook.com is located within our shores and they are able to offer wagers that you cannot make in a brick and mortar casino.
