WTF?!?!? That in addition to smoking several cigs during the round. It was 101 and the heat index was 109. Dude is just too epic.<BR/><BR/>As far as the Tiger vs. the field bet, I would only do it at 3/1 if the other person committed to the same bet for all 4 majors in 1 year. Give me Tiger at those odds in any year- if her wins 1 out of 4 I break even, if he wins 2 or more than I win big, and if he gets blanked then I lose, but not big- given his past performance it's a great bet, even better if you can get someone to agree to it at 7/2 or 4/1.<BR/><BR/>Actually I would take Tiger against the field in a one off, but it would have to be a Par 72 major, and I would demand at least 3-1. Given that he is batting over .500 in Par 72 majors, that is also a great bet.<BR/><BR/>But in a par 70 major, I would need to get longer odds to take a Tiger vs the field bet. I'd do it at 5/1- although he's only 1 for 16 career in par 70 majors, he has finished in the top 5 6 out of 16 times, so I would feel good about my chances on Tiger's side of the bet at 5/1.Kanuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02959256951835399304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25555967.post-29549116219411867922007-08-10T09:52:00.000-07:002007-08-10T09:52:00.000-07:00I'm reading this Friday afternoon.

What made me think of it was that the past times he didn't win one of the first 3 majors, he only one the last one once. The odds are really against him this week. Unless JD gets drunk after making the cut tonight. But that is just mean.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
