All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
My friends are all homers from Boston and they are so excited about Celtics/Red Sox and Pats. What do u think are the odds of this happening this coming year? He just took a bet for 50-1, I originally offered him 100-1 but then had to rethink it and said i would get back to him.

Bodog:
Celtics: 5/1 Pats: 8/5 Sox: 7/2 Some how it's only 28 to 1. I honestly don't think it's possible b/c I don't believe in the Celtics just yet. I don't think they can beat a top 3 WC team in a 7 game series. The other two bets seem probable. |
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
It's easy to figure out what odds you should offer. Go to sportsbooks, figure out what the futures are for all three times, and add them up. Subtract an edge and offer it to him.
|
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
you should profit at anything below 200-1

Patriots 8-5? Red Sox 7-2 is the only one that looks at least almost close. |

Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
lol no chance in hell NONE
|
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
I could see 2, but 3 would be pretty improbable.
|
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
I think even with those crapy bodog odds, the parlay comes out to more like 70-1.
|
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
The Celtics are 22-1 to win the NBA at Wynn. A little low, but obviously better than the bodog stuff.
|
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
Celtics 5-1, LOL! You have to be a ridiculous homer to take that action.

Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
i'm not even sure i would take the spurs at 5-1.
|
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
i guarentee boston gets at MOST 1 championship...
|
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
that's an incredible 'guarentee'. really, groundbreaking stuff.
|
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
20:1 sounds about right to me. I'd put the Pats at 4:1 and the Red Sox at 3.5:1. So I'm 280:1.

Don't forget the Bruins!!! That about pushes the bet to 10,000-1

Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
Not sure what the odds should be but there's a 100% chance I'll kill myself if it happens.

Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
Has any city ever done this before? If it has, my guess would be NY, though I think the Knicks only have a couple championships.
|
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
kidcolin,
Knicks only won in 1970 and 1973, right when the Yankees were busy sucking, so no. At least not for that city anyway. Chicago has no chance at this either, for obvious reasons. |
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
Right.. I'm just trying to think of major sports cities, and I knew Boston and CHI were out of it right away due to baseball. The Knicks I knew only won the 70s, and thought the Yanks sucked, what about the Mets?
Just checked, Mets were in the WS in 73, but lost. Maybe LA? |
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
kidcolin,
I thought of LA - in 1988 both the Dodgers and Lakers won, but the Raiders and Rams did not. Going back a ways, the Lakers could never beat the Celtics in the 60s and when they won the 50s were in Minneapolis (and the Dodgers were probably in Brooklyn at the time). Also, when Bob Welch was striking out Reggie Jackson the Lakers sucked. I don't think this has been done. EDIT: but it was nearly done in 1986 with Boston - the Celtics romped, the Red Sox gagged, and the Patriots got pummeled in the SB. So there's an example of them at least making it to the championship game. |
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
This probably doesn't matter because it involves hockey (which Bostonians have so completely ignored suddenly since their team sucks...I knew a hardcore Bruins fan 10 years ago that is no longer a fan at all...damn bandwagoners) and one team lost in the championships. Anyway, back in 2003, Anaheim nearly became home to the reigning champs in the only 2 sports they had pro teams for...
2002 Anaheim Angels - WS Champs 2002-2003 Anaheim Mighty Ducks - Lost in game 7 of the Finals |
Re: All 3 Boston teams winning the championship??
I'd easily book this at 50-1, I think.
