BP’s 10/7/08 stat of the day
World Series Odds
Team, Shot at All the Marbles
Red Sox, 32.8%
Rays, 27.9%
Dodgers, 20.2%
Phillies, 19.1%
Let’s look at this two ways: On one hand, the odds that your dentist perfers that you chew sugary gum are greater than the Phillies’ odds of winning a chip. On the other hand, the Phillies have a better-than-roll-of-the-dice chance at coming up winners.
Gonna be a fun ride.
