I say add in the Suns training staff as I know they do some consulting for the Cards. I am sure are cap would still be good once we trade Kolb to Miami or cut him.

If you have any idea how odds are posted you would know it is a coincidence. They were set a few weeks back and have adjusted based on where the money is going. nothing more or less. Justa bunch of dumb betters out there :)

Odds don't change that drastically based on money esp on a prop bet, they are based on probability just like the election prop bets. Books don't take in a ton of money that warrants changes on that kind of bet. The average joe is not throwing 10 grand down on this bet so any real money line movement is coming from wise guys who normally get info as fast if not faster than glazer or schefter. I could be wrong but all the chips are falling into place and if we see a kolb release consider it a done deal as the cards would not leave themselves hanging without an agreement from peyton.

Odds ALWAYS adjust if enough money is laid down..One HUGE bet could have swayed the betting line if it was big enough.

So you would rather Peyton Manning not come, and go 8-8 again with Klobz and Skeleton?

So I'll assume this means you do know how odds are posted.

The odds on the Cardinals started low and have risen because people are betting on teams not named the Cardinals.
Justa bunch of dumb betters out there :)
So you're saying people betting against the cardinals are dumb. Gotcha.:D

Also, of the 9000 posts I've read from you saying "not gonna happen". I haven't seen you give a single reason. Care to share?

If I'm the "Other" Manning brother I'm taking a loan and putting a bug in my brothers room.

I think we have a real chance. but to answer this question, Rod Graves. There will be teams chomping at the bit for Peyton, and Graves is notoriously slow to do his job

It IS "champing," but since "champing" means exactly the same thing as "chomping," neither is wrong.

It's a mute point. ;) (this phrase, by comparison, IS wrong because "mute" and "moot" have two different meanings).

Must be the canadian accent. :shrug:

WIKI:

Champing at the bit (or mistakenly as chomping at the bit or chafing at the bit) refers to a tendency of some horses, when impatient or nervous, and especially if being held back by their riders, to chew on the bit, often salivating excessively. This behavior is sometimes accompanied by head-tossing or pawing at the ground. Because this behavior was most often seen by the general public in horses who were anxious to begin a horse race in the days before the invention of the starting gate, the term has become popular in everyday speech to refer to a person who is anxious to get started or to do something. Because some impatient horses, when held back, would also occasionally rear, a related phrase, "raring to go," is also derived from observations of equine behavior.

so champing = chewing? Is that not what chomping means as well?

In this situation Whis and Michael B. will be dragging him along kicking and screaming to the altar. And afterward, Rod will take all the bows for getting it done.

It ain't gonna happen if Rod is left on his own. Michael will have to fly #18 to AZ and put on the charm offensive aided by Larry Fitzgerald, Darnell Dockett, Todd Heap, Mike Miller, Frank Reich, the Mayor of Phoenix, the Governor of Arizona, and John McCain. Anything less won't be enough in my opinion.
