Odds are...

...pretty good for me I'd say. I have a betonsports.com account and banked $1000 on a $40 bet on my beloved Chicago White Sox to win their first world series since 1917. Yes boys, the futures market is where the betting is at. By futures I mean putting a 10 bet or whatever amount you want on a team to win a title down the road. I have some good odds going right now, let me share them with you. AND...what odds I got when I bet and where they are currently. Wait too long and you lose out, this is the key!

Kyle Busch $10 100-1 $1000 20-1

Now granted if one of these futures bets hits I stand to make some cash, I think? Of course I sure wouldn't mind seeing Kyle Busch win the Daytona 500, the Carolina Hurricanes win Lord Stanley's Cup, Florida win the NCAA hoops title, and Elliott Sadler win the NASCAR points title.
*(bets not pictured are money on green bay, oakland, new orleans and baltimore to win the super bowl this past season, and the st. louis blues to win the stanley cup. that would be an embarassment!)
