Kev,what exactly is the reason these guys on K.C. are so desperate to win? My God.They are bustin' they a$$ to try to beat the Halos.The Halos are one game above .500..Where is the feather in the cap?

Has me a bit bamboozled too Scuds. They have ZILCH to play for. Unless these guys just love playing the game and want to give their home fans a little something to cheer about. Be interesting to find out what the avg. attendance is for a Royal's home game.

31 games out of first and about 30 games below .500

AMAZING anyone shows up to watch that mess.

Oh,hey,you wouldn't believe it.They cry bloody murder throughout the stadium on every close strike/ball they don't get their way.I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it myself.I expected a very quiet stadium in this series,but these people are life n' death to beat the Halos.Buddy Bell got thrown out,and made an incredible scene.He must of called Home Plate Umpire Joe West every bad name he ever learned. Really amazing.You would think it was a huge playoff game.

Jeff Weaver found a team so cold that even he could beat them.Hopefully his little brother will try to match him on Sunday.K.C. is a pretty good batting team now though.I don't know how Gander's team shut them out,but maybe they don't do much on the road.

LA Angels 53 49 .520..(your new western division leaders)

Oakland 53 50 .515.... -.5

Texas 51 52 .495...- 2.5

Seattle 49 53 .480...- 4

Dont matter if you win or lose. You got 6-1 in that division. It was a good bet. Its that simple. What happens from now on is just cake. You saw an opportunity and pounced. Thats how its supposed to be done.

I can cover bet Oakland now(and still make decent money)if I want to.You really need to consider the injuries that can take place.Today's game continues to point out their main problem(middle relief.)They really have Good starters,and KROD.They are in denial about this.If KROD were to go down,then the bet is instantly toast.

OAK Athletics 1.3/1

LA Angels 3/2

TEX Rangers 3/1

SEA Mariners 16/1

This bet is officially covered.Which means I DON'T LOSE MY ORIGINAL $500(if the Angels fail to win the division.)I will not make,or lose money if the A's ,Rangers or Mariners win the division.If the Angels win it,I make a profit of $1800(instead of the original possible $3000 profit.)This was done because of the Halos middle relief being so poor.If you look at my original post,I was concerned about it,and it continues to be not good enough to win the division.This would be choker Shields,Carrasco,Romero etc.KROD is fantastic,but these guys continue to be crap.I was begging them to trade for middle relief,but they are in denial.They probably aren't now,but it's too late.I didn't want to do this,but I bet them at high enough odds that I would make sure I would not lose my original $500.
