There is always money to be made.

Super Bowl XLV - How Many Times will FOX mention “Brett Favre” on TV during the Game?
Over/Under 2.5

I'm tempted to put down a large wager...

Easy over right??

and lost. But the Bookies always win - unless they get rubbed out.

[Little Whiskey]

It seems as though some of these bets could be fixed by members of the fox media. If i am one of the announcers I have my long lost buddy throw down some serious cash and then mention Favre 3 times during the first drive. collect my cut and drive off into the sunset!

That's what I was thinking too. There's a number that could be fixed.

That's why there's usually a limit on how much you can bet on the silly props. The casinos make out like bandits overall on the prop bets (on many of them, everybody betting ends up being wrong), so if somebody wants to make sure Troy Aikman throws in three "Lockout"s during the game so they can win a couple hundred bucks, it's no big deal.

[pbmax]

Odd there isn't a bet on QB facial hair.

[Smeefers]

Easy over right??

Way easy over. I'd take it at 8 or 10.

[Guiness]

Have to love Kuhn as the 5th most likely player to score a TD!

An O/U of .5 on the number of current NFL players arrested during the week seems low. They do mean all NFL players, not just SB teams, right?

[Bretsky]

LET'S THROW OUT THE FAVORITE BETS ???

I'd take the Packers to hit over the points
I'd take the over on pts.

LOCKS
AGUILERA
Over 1 Min 50 secs
Over 6 seconds on the brave

[Bretsky]

Ben will pass over 240

[Guiness]

I also can't see Fox not mentioning Favre at LEAST 3 times. It's Aikman, right?

[Freak Out]

So is this the thread to post media predictions then?
