Any chance of giving out some odds on WrestleMania this year Woo, seeing as you are the resident bookie round these parts? I wanna place bucks on the following:
# Edge winning the title. # Cena winning the other title. # Taker beating the Shawn. # Drew McIntyre winning the MITB. # RVD not returning. # Vince not tapping to Bret, but still losing by submission, oddly... # Slow Jiz retaining against their undeserving challengers.
And some more offbeat occurences, should your imagination run wild.
Make the odds, Woo!

To be honest I've been so far out of the loop recently that I wouldn't know what to suggest. I'll see what I can do over the weekend.

I would like to bet 3,500 karma on Evan Bourne NOT winning MITB. Which I think is pretty much Money in MY bank? See what I did there? okay, i'm sorry for the lame pun.
I'd also like to bet 400 points on Morrison/Truth winning, even though everyone is apparently assuming Showmiz will retain. I can't imagine M/RT losing considering the amount of time the WWE has put into pushing them (who, by the way, has got have the worst gimmick of all time. Seriously, "Whats Up" as a serious catch phrase? How about "go fuck a duck you stupid dancing prick"). I imagine Daniel Bryan will cost Showmiz the match setting up a 1-on-1 feud between Miz and Bryan inwhich Bryan will eventually come out as US Champ. Which is quite the shame as I haven't gotten around to youtubing any of his matches and I am actually marking out for Miz at the moment.
more bets to follow once I've seen SD.

I dearly hope Daniel Bryanson does get involved in the match somehow, however, I wouldn't like to see him at the bad end of a pasting courtesy of Paul Weight. In fact, I'll lay down a sizeable wager of 10 large on the fact. 10,000 bucks says Bryanson get's involved in the tag title match.

Also, I changed my mind, I on longer believe Drew McIntyre is worthy of winning MITB, so I want to bet some bucks, three thousand in fact, on MATT HARDY - yes, him - winning the Money In The Bank. He is the forgotten one, and definitely I believe the dark horse in the match.

I'll spot you some bucks OH. I charge 40 points though, and I ALWAYS collect on my debts by the end of the week. Take it or leave it buddy.

300 on either Kofi or Macntyre winning the MITB. 250 on it being cashed in at the end of the night. 100 on Ted Dibiase winning the Triple Threat. 100 on HHH beating Lucky Charms Guy. 100 on Mysterio beating Punk 100 on Hart making McMahon tap. 100 on Danielson causing Showmiz to lose. 100 on Taker Winning. 100 on HBK ending the streak. 100 on Edge winning the WHC. 100 on JR returning tonight.
and finally
1000 on Super Cena winning the WWE Championship.

haha Knox, you realize that you bet 100 points on either possible outcome of the HBK/Taker match, right?
Anyways, here are my official bets:
3,500 on Evan Bourne NOT winning MITB 600 on Batista dominating the match with Cena (not betting on the outcome, just that Batista will get in a lot of vicious and painful beat downs on Cena). 350 on Kofi Winning MITB 350 on Christian Winning MITB 350 on Bret Hart Winning the match with McMahon. 350 on McMahon having some sort of cheap attack or scheme that makes the feud continue past 'mania. 300 on one member of legacy pinning the other (that is, Ted pins Cody or Cody pins Ted - thus, setting up a Ted/Cody feud). 250 on Showmiz keeping their titles (what would be gained by giving Truth/Morrison the belts?) 250 on Danielson getting involved in the Showmiz match. 200 on Taker's streak remaining intact. 100 on Sheamus beating Triple H (if they want to convince people that Sheamus is the real deal, he needs to win this match).

That's called hedging one's bets. In the real world of bookmaking, that's why you'll never see two opponents with better than evens odds, otherwise the bookie will always lose if someone bets on both opponents. That's why we need Woo to show up very sharpish, and give us his outlandishly generous odds. He now has three hours otherwise I'm gonna do it, and provide the meanest set of odds ever. If you still wanna borrow 1000 bucks OH, I'll stand it you.

anyone know any websites that will air 'mania free and live? I watched football online this year without having to pay the ridiculous NFL fees, I was wondering if it's possible to do the same for this...

Justin.tv usually streams live ppv's, although the bandwidth is shockingly bad, which means the picture quality is usually very shit indeed. Just google "wrestlemania live stream" and see what pops up. That's generally how I catch UFC cards. Quality is usually more miss than hit though.
