Just imagine how many millions upon millions
of viewers would turn away in droves were the
NFL owned, or even partnered with, the likes of:
CFL
Rugby
Soccer (FIFA)
Boxing
K1
Mixed Martial Arts
... ... ...
and then applied their NFL Sissy Rules
or their NFL Rules for "what is a catch"
inside their NFL "Concussion" protocol
for headbutts and kicks.

Highest WAR in baseball, that Nah Joisey kid Mike Trout
Hit a HR in 3 of his last 5 birthdays = which is today.

Also, he is one hit away for 1,000 hits... so it must be a Grand Slam.

And one-half on the ChiSox once again today vs. Kennedy..

Any and all systems (incl. consistent fade material) that prevent losers
is more valuable than those putting you on winners b/c of an extra 10%
lost on each losing wager.

$100 bet on 100 games winning half (going 50-50) = 50 x (+$100)
= $5,000 AND 50 x (-110) = -$5500 = -$500 (net loss),
where the chance of an even-up proposition is juiced 10%.

Going 55-45 yields a $550, 55 x (+$100) = $5,500 AND 45 x (-$110)
= -$4,950 => $5,500 - $ 4,950 = a nice $550 profit.

Therefore, the difference differential twain a 50% capper and one 55%
is 5% => (+$550) — (-$500) = $1,050;
i.e., since break-even pt. =52.38%, to clear $1,050 on 100 $100 flat bets
= 52.38% + 5% = a Win-%age of 57.38

To find Win-%age for progressive, floating, and chases, find the floor
by the 50-50, or even-up probability by converting it to the odds for the
the favorable event(s) divided by the unfavorable event(s)' chances and
multiplying that figure by the co-log of the hyperbolic log of 2 (W / L).

Alfred Hitchcock's "The Photographer and The Undertaker"
came out in 1965.  After Alfred's introductory vignette where
he's an American football player, an auditory account and the
first thing heard is that of a television set tuned to a baseball
game with the play-by-play announcer
describing a hit by RIZZO,
and immediately thereafter
the announcer exclaims
there's a hit by BRYANT. 

All the while, the biggest "hit"
(knock-off, rub-out, bump-off,
or "nullification" as termed in
this made-for-TV production)
is taking place, as ordered by
the "Head Office in Chicago."

Very prescient of Mr. Hitchcock,
and not the only occasion wherein
Hitch showed us the future: Hitch
originally used Uranium for an A-
Bomb as his "MacGuffin" in early
1945 in his script before the 1st A-
bombs were dropped on Japan!!

Hitchcock also had the goods on
the then top-gun Director of the
FBI, J. Edgar Hoover because
on film that Hitch owned was
J. Edgar Hoover in drag with
Hoover in a ladies dress and
nylons and wearing womanly
cosmetics including false eye-
lashes.

If you haven't taken the $3-dog-Sox
they are worth in-game bets at least
upto the 6th inning — in this way, the
ChiSox will have won series from both
the AL's top team Strohs and now the
NL's top team Dogers...

Joey Votto can tie Ted Williams record
The first baseman entered play Monday
riding a streak of 18 consecutive games
in which he’s reached base at least twice,
and the record is 21 set by Ted Williams in
1948.  Votto is hitting .318 & struckout only
60 times in 417 at bats compared to 98 Walks !!!

The Dodgers hit 3 home runs + a double on Sunday
to extend their major league all-time record to
57 games with at least 2 extra-base hits.

The previous record was 49 set by the 1937 Yankees.

The Sox won the 1st game 11-0
but then lost the next three to LA
and then Sandy Koufax led loads
of public wagerers to slaughter by
losing Game 5 to the Sox & a big
nobody pitcher named Bob Shaw.

Koufax laughed all the way to the
Bank and his local synagogue, as
goy will be dummy goya, Oye Va!

Tonight the TB rays scored 6 runs and beat the BJ's
6-4 — as the total went over the posted 9.5 runs.

Before tonight they went Under 11-1 their last 12.
They only scored 12 runs in those last 12 games,
the fewest for any AL team over a 12-game span
since the designated hitter started in 1973.

Four games w/ a 7-6 final score

4 games were decided by the score of 7-6 y'day,
and the Over went 8-3-3 (= 72.73%)
Only the 2nd time in major-league history that
4 games had a final score 7-6 on the same day.

The other time was on 22 September 2004 (four).
