We still get no respect....
I saw this link and found it interesting that both the Giants and Cowboys are more of a favorite to win the superbowl next year than the skins...we have the same odds as Philly....

Re: We still get no respect....
Look at it this way - we're favored against the ENTIRE NFC West, minus Seattle:
St. Louis = 1/50 Arizona = 1/60 SF = 1/100 Total odds = 14/300, or 1/23 Sorry for the math, but that means we have 1 in 20 odds of winning, while the odds that ANY of those three teams wins is 1 in 23. Yeah - Seattle ain't counterfeit.

Re: We still get no respect....
Talk about no respect, the steelers win the SB and then see the colts (who they destroyed) and seattle be favored above them.

Re: We still get no respect....
The odds I saw were Philly and Washington and 20/1, Dallas and NY at 22/1.
When I see Dallas at 10/1, I think it's good to be a casino.

Re: We still get no respect....
Odds have nothing to do with respect, it's all about getting the betting public to spend their hard earned money.

I wish the Skins were more of a long shot, because I really want to bet. I can probably get 50 to 1 though if I bet against a Cowgirl fan. |

Re: We still get no respect....
its not likelyhood they'll be there, it the odds they need to get people to spend money.
They don't care about being right, only about making money. |
