When I started getting delays on my Sportsbook account for my winnings this year, I decided, "no more online sportsbooks." I now have a .01 balance and will NEVER give them a dime again. And, the day will come that your banks will not cash those checks and HOLD U accountable for the funds. Just looking out for my fellow degenerates!!!

I told you that you wouldnt keep bumping this when they were losing. It took you ten days to bump this when you were basically bumping it every day or two when they were winning.

Do you mean make some cash back? According to this below you're already in the hole $2500. You didnt make this up did you? Who am I kidding, of course you did. Nobody in their right mind would throw $2500 on a AAA team to win against major league competition.

The future odds on the A's to win the West was 20/1 and I put a 500 on it!

The AL pennant opened at 60/1and I put a 500 on it! It is now 75/1 and I put 500 on it!

The WS odds opened at 60/1 and I put another 500 on it! Curently they are 125/1 and I put 500 on it!

Better luck next year

I'll say one thing for him - his Oakland futures have a better chance of cashing than any Yankee futures out there

Whats up Gusto? You still holding out hope for the A's this year?

They're only 20 games out of the wild card with 19 to play.

I'll be looking forward to the duplicate thread you will make next year. We can have some more laughs.

Someone thinks they can, Holliday? They're pretty much renting him for one year, they better make a few more moves.

(cust did make a routine catch into an error that cost the A's a huge inning when LAA put up 5 runs to take the lead, but man he can up with a smash to take the lead right back, and that also led to the marry-go-round inning the put the game out of reach)

This is a funny thread

Dont need to rethink my thoughts and I guess I do know somehing about baseball as the A's finished dead last in the AL in runs scored. Only the Giants, Nats, and Padres were worse. A hot couple of weeks and you thought this was an offensive juggernaut? Love the homerism though.
