Prop Bet: Bonds will not pass Aarons this season
 
I made a prop bet with my roommate of 10:1 that bond's will not pass aaron's in the hr record this season. I'm not a sports better but I thought this was a fun bet that I could rub in for a long time if i win.

Thoughts?

hmmm....10-1 seems a little low considering he has 2 1/2 months to hit 6 HR's. Everyone seems to be jumping on the Skip Bayless bandwagon that has Bonds not breaking the record. Its pretty rediculous in my opinion. SF will rest bonds for a little while and he will be fine.

he only needs 5 to break it

this could happen if pitchers just don't pitch to him at all when he gets close

so they're not the one who gave it up

Umm... I think 100-1 would be a fair price.

Agreed, the only way he won't get those few homers is an injury.

Offer him half of your original payment and pray he takes it.

Maybe more than 10 to 1, but I definitely think less than 100 to 1. He's Barry Bonds--his leg could break in half any day. He just sat out 3 straight, and you never know when it could be more.

10-1 is bad, but not that bad. 15-1 is about right.

Just hit #752. You're in bad shape.
