Woo Hoo! I cannot wait!

I know it's a big international event but more action than the SB and March Madness combined?

I'm skeptical.

I don't know, Mud. It seems legit to me. Granted, not a lot of USA action. But the rest of the world is as crazy, if not more so, about their football as we Yanks are about ours.

It might be reasonable to assume that more money is bet on the Super Bowl and March Madness, while more bets are taken on World Cup.

?????

Are they serious?

That is a complete lie. They are not within a million light years of this and they know it. So, yes, thats a flat out lie.

As a side note, I remember Euro 2004 and the Thai government actually blocked internet access to a large number of bookies because they feared the consequences. And that was just the European Championships.

Asians love football and they love betting so events such as this go off the scale.

I know this is true because I myself tried to log onto William Hill, coral, etc while I was there and just got this page of Thai script which i assumed was saying "BACK OFF".

Superbowl is one single game. And most of the world has never even heard of March Madness. Sur-priiise! American colleges don't make much of a ripple in Quatar.

And by the way, the rest of the world is amused when confronted with the American habit of celebrating national champions as 'World champs'.

Go ask a few of those oil sheiks, you know, in that part of the world we're trying to take over, how much they'd be willing to bet on a World Cup game.

I'm skeptical.

And I also think that more people will watch the World Cup Final than Olympic curling. I know this might come as a shock to you.

Do arabs gamble? i thought that was against their religion?

The Chinese have no such qualms of course. I tell you, betonstars should target the Chinese market ... no slow days there.

Do arabs gamble? i thought that was against their religion?

I know another country with religious fundamentalists where gambling is illegal.

You'd be surprised how many people have an unfavorably opinion of fascism.
