Go usa.

My 'intuition' says that the US will not win the next 2006 World Cup game. If only I could make money betting on THAT...

Seems like Mexico is going to lose.

Seems to me Vegas symbolizes the antithesis of everything you advocate with respect to conservation, eco-responsibility, and respecting the Earth.

Oh, well, that part is true. Doesn't seem like a good 'bet' to divert most of the Colorado River to create a giant, city-sized, swimming pool in the middle of the desert, etc.

I don't mind taking casino money, though. I like Indian tribal gaming better than Vegas--maybe I could bet a little on a match or two.

Why would I hate Vegas?

Why would I hate Vegas? Last time I was in Vegas I made a bunch of money hanging out around the slots. I'd gather up whatever the drunk, rich, players forgot about...

One reason I like soccer is because teams can tie (and because it doesn't take lots of money to learn to play, to begin with.) Conan made a joke about US and Ghana match--the whole country of Ghana watched the game on the country's television.

Re: World Cup 2006

Depends on the place but yah you can often bet on ties.

I see the future: I go to Vegas and get kicked out of the Casino, for no good reason (other than they'd lose money). I'm not posting other ones, but maybe I should look for a bookie. I am kidding. If I bet money on sports, sports wouldn't be fun to watch.

I'd bet that you were hoping I would post, though.

Hey, Sip, in Vegas, can you bet on a 50/50, tie?
