Go Go White Sox

On a Chicago message board last spring I posted my two season wins baseball bets. I had Yankees under 98 wins. That one is a winner. I also am sitting on a Detroit Tigers UNDER 89 season wins ticket. They have 87 wins with a three game series vs. the White Sox left this weekend. Thus, 2 Tigers wins is a push; 3 is a loser. The series is meaningless for both teams.

I probably won't hedge unless the Tigers win on Friday and I get a nice + line for Saturday or Sunday. The easiest thing though is simply for the White Sox to win two of three.

I don't bet much baseball. But when I do (especially when I tie up my money for six months), I'd like to have a winner. I told my wife last Spring that I was making two big baseball bets this year and if I won both of these bets, we'd go to Hawaii with the winnings. I was kidding. She's been keeping track of the bets with more than mild interest and amusement. She's holding me to it.

I hear Maui in winter is quite lovely. Go go White Sox.

Those have to be some big bets it Hawaii is an option.

Go for the Pro Bowl and put it all on the AFC.

The White Sox just became my favorite team. My wife's too.

aloha.
