I believe the odds should be 29-1 , so for the fun of it i will take the rangers , angels , and rockies.

1.5-1 odds...I can only bet with what I have hidden in my mattress, and 29-1 odds would affect my sleep.

Final Prizes:

1st Place:Main Event Entry ($1500)
2nd Place:Online Championship ($350)
3rd Place:Online Championship ($350)

League fee: $30
Remainder: $20

These prizes are set and final. Should I give the $20 to 4th place? Should I give it to 2nd place? Any ideas of what I should do with the remaining $20, I'm all ears.

Also, I am very superstitious with some things, so I have to share this with you...Last year, as I waited to deposit the checks for this pool, I kept all checks in one envelope. Rob Benetti's. He won the 13 Run Pool. This year, I kept the checks for my superbowl pool in Glenn Lowy's envelope and he won some money too. I had all checks in Alan Greenberg's envelope for this pool. It's really about who sends a big envelope that can fit all others inside, but none the less, it's been the good luck charm. If Alan Greenberg wins any money in this pool, I will have to announce who's envelope I'm using to store checks for each pool.

I'll be buying one of these to send my check in for Marc's next pool.

Marc, I agree with Pete, keep the excess dough for running all these pools. They're a blast.

Keep the $20 and thank you for taking the time to run this. Diapers are not cheap.

You guys are funny. GlennX, I didn't even think of the chaos I may have created with my posts. My wife will kick my a$$ if I get 30 huge envelopes in. LOL. Actually, some of you guys sent fed ex envelopes and they are too big for me to store everything in the Diesel Inc. Safe. Maybe I need a pendeflex? Nah lol

If no one objects, I am going to gamble the $20. I don't know how, but if it turns into bigger money, I will share. Are there any derbys coming? Mr. Benetti?
