Not that it makes a difference, atleast I don't think(?), but why was it set that way?

Based on the disparity of the voting, I would venture a guess it was to even out the voting a little bit by offering a bigger reward to those who picked the underdog... and thus far, it has proved unsuccessful. NO where near even voting, even with 2/2 odds on grey. |

Wait... the payout for 2/2 and 1/1 is the same? How is that an incentive? |

Wouldn't 2/2 odds be the same as 1/1?
2/1 odds I see different, but not 2/2 odds. |

I can respect that. I'm just going through the names. MDA will not play.
Terry and Elephantitus cross each other out, but it will be fun to watch both of them shine.
It kind of depends on how solid Kerr can be and how good Grant can be for Scarlet.
Noone doubts Freeman's great. Can't say I know much about Hoobler.
Ah, it's going to be a great game. The outcome of JT's spring games have almost all surprised me.
Anyone have the weblink for a webcast?

I also assumed this, but other injuried people not expected to play like Pittman were not even placed on a squad so i'm kind of confused by it. |
