If you have never watched it, how could you possibly call it horseshit? it all depends what you are into as an individual I guess...I am a huge music lover and its fun to watch raw talent discovered, and turned into a star. 3 months ago these ppl were working in gas stations and baking cookies, now they are preparing to do a national tour and make millions making albumns...how is that horseshit? The show is good man, honestly!!

I have never watched this horseshit show in my life. Guess I'll make the flip over during Dateline's Predator show. Good Luck Gyno. Love the avatars everyday.

 

[Labeeb]

I've never been one for "talent" shows. Not my cup of tea. I'll watch it tonight to see if Gyno pulls out the win.

American Idol is awesome. 30+ million people watch this show every
week. I remember some of these peoples first auditions and to
see how far they have come is wonderful. Elliot has improved alot
he must be practicing day and night cause his singing voice is
alot better now then when he 1st started

 

[vanzack]

I just put a dime on Daughtry NOT to get eliminated.

I think he will not be in the bottom 2, that will be Yamin and McPhee.

 

[vanzack]

I got it at -208, and it went up to -218.

 

[BIGSHOTMAXXX]

Welcome aboard...can someone call my cell phone as I will be at the Phillies game? :smoking:

I got it at -208, and it went up to -218.

 

[gynecologist]

Is an Upset Brewing on Tonight's Show? Follow Gambling Money


By Richard Rushfield, Times Staff Writer
May 10 2006

This week, the early consensus bet on who will be the odd Idol out of tonight's elimination seems to be unraveling in last minute wagering. In the early betting, across a survey of online betting sites, the high rollers had put their money on the proposition that singer Elliot Yamin's journey will end tonight, picking him as least likely to win. However, on sites offering direct lines on the question "Who will go" the forecast is far murkier. What's more, other less traditional prognosticators are splitting from the bettors and foretelling a big surprise for tonight's show.

The Irish gambling site Paddy Power, gives Yamin the lowest "to win" odds in its current line, listing him at 7 to 1. The sites complete odds are as follows:

Chris Daughtry 11 – 10
Taylor Hicks 13- 8
Katharine McPhee 4 –1
Elliot Yamin 7 – 1.

By a whisker, the site Betfair gives Yamin the lowest "To Win" odds, following just below McPhee. Betfair's line is as follows:

Chris Daughtry 2.42 – 1
Taylor Hicks 2.5 – 1
Katherine McPhee 6 – 1
Elliot Yamin 6.2 – 1

The site Pinnacle Sports offers special betting for each contestant on the proposition, "Will X be eliminated on May 10th?" This line offers the shock answer of Katherine McPhee receiving the most bets on the "Yes" portion of that question, followed closely by Daughtry, Yamin with Taylor Hicks listed as a distant prospect for elimination.

DialIdol, the automated voting site which issues predictions based on a computer analysis of busy signal rates predicts a surprising race for the bottom, offering the following scores for each contestant — the lower scores indicating greater likelihood of elimination.

Taylor Hicks -29.749
Elliott Yamin- 29.181
Katharine McPhee- 25.623
Chris Daughtry- 25.241

Meanwhile the "People Search and Public Information Search Engine" Zaba Search, which reports good results from the past shows, predicting the loser based on whom has been most searched for online, echoes the DialIdol results exactly. The site lists Daughtry as the least searched for, followed by McPhee, Yamin and Hicks.

And the tension mounts as the countdown enters its final hours.

Not to jinx you or anything.. take this for what it's worth. I am just here to help... i am not betting on this fyi. GL gyne

 

[gynecologist]

Wow :smoking: :smoking: :smoking:

Funny that Chris is still the favorite.

sorry, i was viewing it.. just trying to help... you still have time for a buyback

 

[jammanxc]

i haven't seen this season but I've watched idol for the previous seasons and I don't believe K. Mc Phee will be eliminated just b/c she is a girl from california.

California has a HUGE viewer base and the viewership would certainly dip.

No chick & three guys left? Think about it.....

 

[gynecologist]

Fvck it. gotta believe america has taste. Chris is the best talent
and is a future superstar. I will admit I am betting more with my
heart than my brain but hey I still feel like I will win more than
I feel like I will lose.

GL MAXX remember hope is the last thing to die

Wow :smoking: :smoking: :smoking:

Actually Taylor is currently the slight favorite. But I think that mostly reflects the the greater expectation that he will survive this week. If Daughtry survives, I would expect him to be a slight favorite again.

 

[vanzack]

I just went to dialidol.com and loooked at their previous weeks success rate and its not very good.

I feel a little bit better now. They often got it wrong and sometimes by quite a bit.

Good point. It seemed so logical that Elliot was a goner but now the supposed numbers are getting in the way. Still think he ma be worth a shot at 4-1 or better.

 

[jammanxc]

was going to post a pic .. but it wasnt working

 

[vanzack]

I read an interesting article though that said that - I think - all of the previous idol winners have been from the south and most of the runner ups too.

Is that true?

Why would there be so many from the south? All 3 guys left are from the south.

 

[BIGSHOTMAXXX]

Thsi will be about a 15 unit loss for me if he loses, but I think he will live to fight another day...Kat gets the axe!!! I am standing by my word!!!
