[SportSavant]

I cannot see 'desperate housewives' possible losing best Comedy series....

I also see many shops with -240 on that prop, very close to pulling the trigger on that puppy.....

 

[tooran]

Since when is Desperate H. a "comedy"? Was Melrose Place a comedy? Or Dallas? No.

But then again, it ain't really a drama either. But I don't think I've ever seen a one-hour show qualify as a comedy before...

 

[SportSavant]

I was concerned about that aswell tooran,

however, if they are not nominated in the DRAMA section, then I guess they gotta win the comedy section?


anyone else got any thoughts on this?

 

[docdekay]

Thoughts?

Yea, they opened at -110 against the field. That's when I bet it.

-240? Pass.

 

[SportSavant]

the action is trememndous, I am on pins & needles.....

 

[corporeal]

i'd take a small shot on arrested development.

 

[WorldNumberOne]

halle berry had to be a huge favorite on who was the hottest piece of ass in the audience ..

she gets better looking every time i see her..

 

[Santo]

If they let me bet on the 2004 Emmy's I'd be a millionaire!

 

[Woody0]

Not me, my memory just isn't that good.

 

[SportSavant]

has best comedy series happened yet?

 

[VaultedTreehouse]

I just blew a grand on Desperate Housewives. That's it for me betting awards. Never again.

 

[SportSavant]

fuck, I felt bad about the 240$ I bet.....

although, I have had some success with these in the past.... sure feel stupid tonite.


:monsters-

 

[VaultedTreehouse]

Can't fucking believe it. Also bet Paris in the Olympics. felt I might lose that one. Couldn't see losing this one. Line went up to -800 on D.H...Fuck.

sorry man..... :sad3:

 

[VaultedTreehouse]

It's alright, it just makes me ill to lose on something like this, which will keep me from betting on these again...I won on the Spelling Bee and the Pope, so maybe that's where I need to keep my focus.

 

[trytrytry]

i got killed, worse than the MTV video awards. phukc


lost on Gelnn close at 3-1 locked in early what an ovelay but Phuck it lost.


also lost on Hugh Laurie at 2-1 another huger overlay from the close

And lost -300 on desparate housewives got in before it dived to -600 and -800

only win was a +110 on Lost

what a disaster. beat all the line moves at pinny but no favorites got the job done! oh well.

 

[Mason]

DH pulled an Ally McBeal and requested to be put into comedy this year. I had 'Lost' +150 for pocket change.

 

[Buffalo66]

Yeah, there was thought to be less competition on the comedy side for DH. I mean I think they are still nominating Cheers and Seinfeld reruns since there hasn't been any excellent top-rated comedies since those.

 

[Buffalo66]

I mean does anybody think Raymond this past year was as good as Cheers and Seinfeld, ANY of the years they were on? And Frasier was just too, I don't know the right word.... precious rather than consistently flat out funny after the first couple years it was on. And nobody watches Arrested Development, although I think it's excellent.
