I have the Pats, who wants the Ravens for a chance to win 5 of my prized Gurkhas?.......

Even up!,,,, none of that Gay Mexan Cowboy/Packers points stuff........

First response gets the action.

Sooooo, who wants?

Seriously?

Pat's are a full touchdown favorite in this thing.

I get that the Gurk's are probably sarcasm, but with the rest of the post, who know?!?!?!

I wonder how often this works, to come on, and "ofrer to take" the home team favorite, and people actually take the bet?[frypan]

I'll take your bet if in turn you take the Panthers to win[-(

So that would be two separate Gurkha bets:-"

I'm not a professional gambler either, but it seems odd that you want the favorite in the most lopsided game of the weekend without points. Points don't have to mean anything to you, but they are a pretty good indication of how strongly we should hold one team over another.

You've got a partner in this thing, so I'll shut up now. With some of the recent bets and such, I though I'd at least share how lopsided it was so anyone else could jump in knowing the score.

I think you're right. I live in MD and grew up a Redskins fan during the glory days and absolutely hate the Ravens.

I am hoping for a good game no matter who wins and that goes for the rest of the games as well.

Your right illini a touchdown favorite is hard to take a bet straight up, but the sea hawks are the biggest favorite this weekend. By the way playing the spread I like the Pats and Panthers.

The Patriots are -285 on the moneyline, which means that you should offer 14 cigars to win 5 from the person who takes the Ravens.

If you don't "do" points, that is.
