Results - Wager for Week 1

Wow! What a game. It was closer than I hoped but it is a great start to the football season. With this 1st wager I have effectively made a 100% return and the season has just started. The smart thing to do would be to declare victory and take my money out, but there is still a long season ahead.

Starting Amount on 8/30/05: $100 + $20 bonus
Depoisted $50 on 9/4/05: $50 + $10 bonus
