Hope your boys keep rolling Scuds, except of course when they meet the Red Sox coming up.

They have a good chance.Half the problem was getting them to get a taste of the lead.Now that they have that,I think they will settle for nothing less than the division championship.That doesn't mean they will automatically get it.The A's are pretty game.I don't think they have as much talent as the Angels,but I do think they try just as hard,and want it badly.As you say,the Halos have to play Boston this weekend,and August(in general)is a tough go.So,a tie for the division lead might be a bit of an illusion.I think realistically,the Angels may fall 2-5 games back going into September,but I think they will be there in September.We finish at home against Oakland,and I expect those games will decide it all.

Your final bet was what, $500? What were the odds that you ended up getting?

You mean if I was to take part in that "scourge on society,"and bet on the net? If I had done such an awful thing it would have been for $500 at 6/1. Of course,my bet was made in VEGAS.Who doesn't have a buddy in Vegas that has nothing else to do but baby sit other people's bets?
