Do you guys think the discussion during this outage counts towards that? They are really racking up the Harbaughs.
What was the one about showing the parents? I know they've shown them at least once.
Also, it's surprising they still haven't been able to get power back to the broadcast booth, only the sidelines.

1) Has a Super Bowl ever suffered such a delay before?
2) If the game gets suspended to be continued another day, how badly will the fans riot?
3) In my opinion (the) Baltimore (Ravens) must be destroyed.

If this power outage changes the momentum to the 49ers, then I'm going to destroy Bill's Gambling Hall forever!!

What's the bet on Al Queda claiming responsibility for the power outage? I'm thinking +200.
What's the bet on EvenBob / AZ blaming Obama for the power outage? I'm thinking +500.
Wow.

Quote: WizardMy props are doing quite well so far. Only three punts so far in the first half. I hope they get the lights back on. If they have to finish the game another day I think any props not already resolved with be "no action."
WIZ - as I am not a sports bettor - why would it be no action if the game was not completed today?

Local time is CST, which would probably have to be used in this case.

At least I didn't bet the NO on a defensive/special teams TD, which I've bet many times in the past.
I've had to sweat the NO safety bet a couple times but so far so good.
Did you bet NO Overtime?

If the 49ers score here, the No 2 pt conversion and no OT prop bets may be lost on the same play!

That was the easiest call to take an intentional safety ever. Ravens could lose on a blocked punt. Now they burn off 8 seconds and they get the free kick.
Dumbass announcers saying they wouldn't do it. Insane.

Quote: MakingBookSCORE! Jacoby Jones baby!
Many thanks for this tip that made me look at some of the player props.
Bored with the MVP always being the winning QB... take it away from a public vote, please. Jacoby Jones I think should have got it.
Only lost one bet this afternoon - SF -4. Everything else came in.

It's a unorthodox play though, and while a blocked punt would be horrible for the Ravens, so would be a kicker dancing around in the End Zone trying to kill time. A fumble or a strip there could be just as fatal, and because it's an unusual play, it has more potential for things to go wrong. Normally when up 3-8, you only do that play if it can expire the clock (~7 seconds remaining or less).
Also, in defense of the announcers, they didn't say that they wouldn't do it. They specifically brought it up as a possibility, semi-discounted it, and then reconsidered all before it happened. Many wouldn't have even brought up that possibility, especially with 11 seconds left. Phil Simms is usually pretty good with strategy, and I give them both a little leeway because the blackout had to be a very weird scenario to work through.

I may have to make a trip to Vegas for the SB next year, just to bet props! Given the free advice available here from the Wizard, I would feel good putting some serious action on various props, like the no safety (DESPITE the past two years) and the player-name-scrabble-score thing.
